Estimated Number of subscribers: 100,000 according to a statement by Egypt's Communication and Information Technology minister Dr. Tarek Kamel in Ahram newspaper on Sunday 5 March 2006 . The minister of the Egyptian Telecomunications Tarek Kamel said in the July 2007 news that the ADSL would be turned from Unlimited to Limited with Quota at a starting price of 45 LE Pounds for the 256k/64k and a 2GB limit for the download and so on, however almost all the ADSL users especially the students and users of unlimited ADSL refused it such an offer, most users has come to a conclusion that if this plan would be imposed they would cancel their subscription because they wanted the internet to be Unlimited as is. The plan was to start the Limited ADSL Packages the 1st of September 2007. It turned out that Dr.Tarek Kamel was to aim specific offering at different price range different individuals unable to subscribe for an Unlimited package.
