I recently ordered my N8 yesterday through MTN Direct (083 123 3667). I called them to check if they had stock, and they said that they did. I told my Dad that he could call them and order it because I can't put the contract under my name, 5 more months till im legal :D. Anyways, when he called them, they said that they had no stock. This was in a space of about 2 or 3 minutes from when I called.

So he forced the consultant to check again, and guess what, they had stock! Some of these consultants are just too lazy to get off their behinds and check.

Unfortunately, my Dad forgot to mention to the consultant that I have an existing MTN prepaid number.

What I want to know:
1) What would be the procedure to associate my number with the contract after I recieved the phone?
2) May be a dumb question but what colours does MTN ship in SA? Again they only had 1 more on stock and I had to take what ever they had, my Dad forgot to ask what colour they had in stock.
3) Normally, how long does MTN Direct take to deliver? I live in Durban.

Prefebly anyone that has ordered a N8 will have extra knowledge :).

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :)
 
I think that you'd have to give them your current number ASAP. Else they going to issue a new number to you.
 
1) Best would be to try and cancel the contract and reapply. It's easiest if you tell them from the start that you have a prepaid number you'd like to use.
2) Think they ship mostly dark grey and silver
3) Maximum 7 days, according to one of their consultants
