Sunday Times launches Pay as you use Internet access in South Africa

The Sunday Times (www.sundaytimes.co.za), South Africa's biggest Sunday paper has launched PAYU Internet. Instead of a flat monthly fee you'll be charged a rate of R1.78 a minute every time you use the Internet or download your e-mail.

The service includes a free e-mail address and 12Mb of storage space for your messages.

This is perfect for people who don't spend hours online but who use the Internet mainly for e-mail. Go online, download your mail, work offline, reconnect and send. If that's all you do, why pay a monthly fee? Some months you might not go online at all. Businessmen who travel will enjoy the single dial-in number which you can use from anywhere in South Africa.

To take advantage of this service all you need is a computer, a modem and a Telkom land line, and you must be a South African citizen, living in South Africa.

Every time you use the Internet or download your e-mail, you'll be charged a flat rate of R1.78 a minute (inclusive of VAT). If you go online after hours or over the weekend, you'll still be charged the same rate. If there are other connection fees - such as hotel surcharges - these will be added to the R1.78. When you get your Telkom account, it will include the cost of the time you spent online.

For more information about this service visit: www.payu.co.za or call +27 (0) 867 177 177.
