ADSL2+ (24Mbit) Soon in Cyprus

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

When for home users the competition is just at 1Mbit, why should they offer 24mbits right away. From a business point of view it doesn't make sense.

I believe that they will offer their Triple play package (TV/cheaper calls/internet) with 1Mbit for the price that now we get only 1Mbit internet (about 25 pounds). I don't think that initially 24mbits will be available for home users because it will be too expensive.

This is just my opinion of course. I wouldn't say no if 24Mbits is offered at a good price.

This is the price list I would make if I was them:

Triple play with 300K Internet: 10 pounds
Triple play - 1Mbit: 18 pounds
Triple play - 1.5Mbit: 24 pounds

To Tcklim they offered "5 x FASTER Internet than any other provider" 1.5Mbits is not 5x Faster. It means they should have 5Mbits or more for home users! :D

Even Primetel stuff doesn't know about it ! Prices are not even calculated :)

Somebody said some time ago:

Hmm.. Why do you think that they should give such prices? According to Primetel press release they will offer all services from one provider:
Noteworthy is the fact that all services will be offered by only one telecommunication company, PrimeTel, resulting in the payment of just one bill with important monthly savings by consumers. What makes PrimeTel to differ from other alternative telecommunication companies in Cyprus is the fact that subscribers will not have to subscribe to more than one telecommunication provider to be able to receive all three services. This fact makes PrimeTel, the only true alternative choice in the Telecommunications sector of Cyprus.


Let's calculate how much 1Mbit ADSL costs now
Cytanet netrunnerfast (1Mbit) subscription: 12CYP
Telephone line subscription: 7CYP
I-choice1000 subscription: 15CYP

Total: 34CYP+VAT

Why do you think that Primetel will give 1Mbit triple play for 18CYP? :)

24Mbit will not be given to nobody. (not even business)
This is just the max speed that can be transfer through their cables but will not be given as Internet speed to nobody.
Some of thsi bandwidth will be given locally for TV and Tel.
Not Internet.
