ATTENTION (9/Mar/1999)
On Thursday 07
January 1999 the rumor first started of an
unlimited rate plan during a talk. Read more about it
here.
The case for this
request is presented throughout these pages.
Perhaps it is best summarized by this Open Letter
To Etisalat.
Comparative rates of other Internet Providers around the region and the rest of the world are compared here to Emirates Inernet's rates. We will attempt to be a objective as possible, and try and come to a conclusion if the rates we pay are reasonable.
Did you take time to tell Etisalat what you thought about their service before March 15th, 1999. If not, click here.
The Bulletin Board has been put up for people to make constructive comments or initiate discussions on this issue. Please use it sensibly and ignore the silly comments made by some juvenile minds.
