Below are a few simple call charge comparisons of Neotel versus Telkom's standard packages.
Something to note is that Neotel has per-second billing from the first second, while Telkom still employs the ancient 'minimum call charge', after which the call is per second, and which impacts the cost of shorter calls a great deal more than a per-second from the first second service.
Telkom's minimum call charge for local calls during peak time is 65c, and lasts for 100 seconds, while off-peak the minimum Telkom call charge is also 65c, and lasts for 210 seconds.
The minimum charge for a Telkom national call (over 50km) during peak time is also 65c and lasts for 60 seconds, while during Callmore time it is also 65c and lasts for 120 seconds.

The clear winner in the Neotel vs. Telkom charges is Neotel. With per-second billing from the first second, no minimum call charges, and lower call charges for local, national and cellphone calls there is no real reason to stick with Telkom if you are able to move to Neotel.
