I heard about this a long time ago and just want to hear if it still works. People say that with Virgin moblie data costs 50c/mb but when your airtime reaches 0c you can continue using data at no cost. Does this work?

Hi Ghost. I think it it was just a problem with their billing system at one stage. I know I can use Mxit on my sim with 0 airtime, but I heard Mxit was free on Cell C and Virgin, I can't do any browsing though, nothing opens.
If I connect my phone to my laptop and connect, I get redirected to a Cell C site that says I have to load airtime to browse ;)
So answer is no, only if theirs some type of billing stuff up.

makes me long for the "bottomless cup" that mtn use to offer!! i have no idea what it was or how it worked , but all you did was recharge with any amount and you download till you cant download anymore... at 1.8Mbps
"imouttahere longs for the days mtn charged under 0.10 / gig of data"

Occasionally this year my vodacom vlive connection has forgotten to charge me for a 200mb session.
A treat for any heavy downloader.

True, well so much for that...... LOL, I'm getting ADSL anyway so it doesn't matter. Though I'd love free internet....

ADSL is like drinking a "chocklet melkie" after you've had a few beers, absolute heaven ;)

If ever you experience free internet by accident.
It is a treasure you must keep secret to your grave...
I once made the fatal mistake by bragging about it,
and karma kicked my a$$.
Its like the girl of your dreams thats long gone....
