The telecom provider also revealed that while its uncapped products do not have data caps, the company may apply restrictions if excessive usage is detected that may affect the network.


If throttled, Telkom has revealed that a user’s service will be fully restored at the beginning of the next calendar month. According to Telkom, if a user continues to abuse the service their account may be subjected to termination.

Telkom customers can however use Telkom’s tracker tool to keep track of their data in order to prevent untimely throttling, bandwidth shaping, and account termination.
