iBurst hits back, opens the flood gates after midnight

Published by on Apr 8th, 2010, 1 Comment

Local wireless broadband provider, iBurst, has hit back at the broadband war currently being waged by MWEB and other ISPs by introducing a free three-month trial for current iBurst Wireless subscribers.

Starting in April iBurst is to launch free internet access between midnight and 8am to all active iBurst Wireless customers.

The trial is open to both contract and month-to-month subscribers on all iBurst Wireless packages. Subscribers will be able to use the Internet freely between midnight and 8am, with all traffic being zero-rated and therefore not counting towards their monthly bandwidth cap.

Having free Internet access late at night is extremely useful to people synchronizing their online backups, doing large file transfers, for late-night surfing or online gaming.

This service is initially being introduced as a free trial to ensure that iBurst can deliver good customer experience and to test market viability before officially launching it as a value added service, set for July this year.

    I was starting to panic that iBurst was not going to come to the party… Nice to see they’ve shown some initiative but would be better to use a time like 10pm – 8am (at least from my greedy consumer perspective)
