I have that same issue: http://www.mybroadband.co.za/vb/show...livery+reports
Many sms's come through late. Concatenated SMS's come through at odd times - this morning i received the 2nd part of a message and then this afternoon the first part.
MTN is a ripoff when it comes to SMSing.. check here tho if this may help:

I post it here ,to create some awareness on this issue.
If it doesnt improve in a month or two ,Moderator please move this thread to consumerism section,and We'll put some momentum behind it .

I never really liked MTN
Everything of theirs is just a little bit more expensive
The liver is evil... and must be punished
I've never had a problem with MTN. It's an individual thing. You can't blanket a company and say "oh MTN is *****" unless it's Melkom you are refering to.
I know they charge for contract users. Not too sure about pay as you go. Pretty sure pay as you go has free delivery reports...
The only reason I would change over to Vodacom is for the delivery report reason and cos my contract only charges per second after the first minute, which the consultant at the MTNSP shop conveniently never told me about..

I tested this near the end of last year with a prepaid MTN sim I still had. Delivery reports was definetly charged for.Originally Posted by neobyte
mtn must also be linked to helkom......they are following the good ol suck the south african consumer dry road
i just dialled 808 and spoke to Naomi.
She confirmed that delivery reports are being charged for on pre-paid. Not contract.
I asked why she said she does not know, she can only answer for contract.
This is a ripoff indeed.
Do Vodacom and Cell C have the same practice ?
Vodacom does NOT charge for SMS delivery report,
Cell C dont know ?

For that i'm going to vodacom
I pressed F11 and Windows vanished
Last time I used it (a couple of years ago) it was charged for on my MTN contract...
They have always stated that delivery reports are charged for, however on pay as u go they diddnt actualy ever charge you untill about a year or two ago...
Oh and MTN SP has to be the crappest service provier around, other SP's like nashua and the likes are probably a lot better. I still belive that MTN as a network are very good.
...most of the time
