Fasttelco 3X offer 2009 Kuwait

Fasttelco is offering now a 3X promotion for residential ADSL service. The pricing is bit higher than regular offerings. This is how 3X speed works…Lets say you buy 512 Kbps package then:

Monday – Thursday : 8am – 5pm : 512 Kbps

Monday – Thursday : 5pm – 8am : 1.5 Mbps [3X slot]

Friday – Saturday : All Day/Night : 1.5 Mbps [3x slot]

The overall pricing for this offer are as follows:

people don`t go for fasttelco , the worst and slowest internet provider in kuwait.

2 years I had 1Mbps connection with KEMS and since 6 month GPON (fibreoptics) which was excellent with download and upload.
But since KEMS this year didn`t put an offer I switched to fasttelco offer 1Mbps and between 1am-7am 6Mbps , what a waist don`t go for fasttelco. here are my result for fastelco 1Mbps (using LAN/router and also Wifi same result !!)

Download Speed: 138 kbps (17.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 51 kbps (6.4 KB/sec transfer rate)

What a waist I have complained several times and I`m going to cancel my subscription and go back to KEMS , fastelco support staff also are the worst I ever seen they take long time to reply and they don`t know anything.

connected at that speed and the actual throughput varies.

Thanks for this information!

The offer is indeed very tempting and if I choose to go with the 2Mb yearly offer I'll end up paying exactly half of what I'm paying Qnet (4Mb annual)and get basically the same speed when I'm actually home!
