Revised Cell C Prices? BUT YOU CAN SAVE EVEN MORE, HERE'S HOW:

[kooldude]

No it's not.

CellC might be R0,15c per MB, but 8ta works out to R0,015c per MB..... 1/10th of the price.

But you can't get that 8ta data special on your voice contract. With CellC you can buy these on your voice contract.

With CellC you can buy these on your voice contract.

Cell_C seems to indicate otherwise:

this deal applies to all data product portfolio,The new flat rate applies to all prepaid and contract data bundles and packages from 1 August 2012.

THis are for Data deals only not voice contracts.

[Tygga]

all the more reason to get the 8ta promotion while it's still active.

do you really think CellC will throw a promotion soon that is 10 times cheaper than it is now? I think not.

I would choose 8ta once they give us 1GB for R20 instead of 10GB for R199. I for one, can't afford so Cell C has come to my rescue.

So, Cell C has revised all their standard data bundles and reduced the price, plus giving all customers a 15 cents per megabyte out of bundle billing regardless of the value of data bundle purchased! Provided you have bought a data bundle first. Everybody is ecstatic (Cell C customers of course, including myself). Applause to that, please.

I have calculated the new revised data bundle prices and found something which didn't quite sit well in me despite the applausible price drop. First things first, let me give you the revised price of the bundles (prepaid).
12MB = R1.50
30MB = R4.50
50MB = R7.50
100MB = R15.00
300MB = R45.00
500MB = R75.00
1GB = R155.00
2GB = R310

Here's the thing: if you buy 12MB bundles three times for R1.50 each, you end up with 36MB which equals to R4.50 whereas Cell C has another data bundle priced at R4.50 for 30MB, my question is, shouldn't they add 6MB on the 30MB bundle priced at R4.50? That way, it'll make more sense than buying 3 bundles of 12MB for a total of R4.50 which makes it unjust for the 30MB of the same price. You get my point?

The same goes for the R7.50 data bundle which gets you 50MB. A smart user (like me) could buy 5 bundles of 12MB for a price of R7.50 and get 60MB, which means 10 more megabytes than the R7.50 bundle which would have given me 50MB.

THE SAME GOES FOR 100MB BUNDLE AND SO ON, YOU DO THE MATH.

* CONCLUSION: I think Cell C should add 6MB to the R4.50 bundle to make it justifiable.

* Add 10MB to the R7.50 bundle (given the sum of five 12MB bundle equals to R7.50 for a total of 60MB)

The rest of the bundle prices is easy to calculate and make necessary adjustments.

OR ELSE, SMART USERS LIKE ME WILL KEEP ON BUYING 12MB BUNDLES TO SAVE EVEN MORE. This is my 2 cents, I'm not complaining - I'm just stating the obvious.

CAN I HEAR AN AMEN?

Or cell c should just up the price of the 12mb bundle. Or drop it altogether.

Huge improvement however still to bloody expensive 10G still costs you your kidney right arm left leg etc etc - R 3100.00 eish

Don't confuse yourself. For high data volumes I use Adsl. CellC rocks for now. And I can phone my family in Europe for 1Rand a minute! WTF And when no coverage it defaults to Vodacom.

[pravingang]

What's the catch really guys? Cheap data bundles what's the speed of the downloads can I use them on my HSDPA,why are the price more which when you buy them in bulk,when something is good to be true it probly aint

[Thabochi]

8cTa maybe cheaper, but then they are only accessible ny the few that happen to be in the main metropolitan areas

[Tygga]

Cell C is still the bomb! The power is in our hands.

HI

0,15c per MB OOB and 99c call rate for 50 countries as well as 99c per min , per second billing.
I think we are shacking the market , i do know they are working on bigger cost effective Data packages.
For those high data users.

Buy a 99c for Real starter pack, RICA the sim card, follow the instructions on the pack on how to port.
Wait for your Vodacom signal to die and then put your Cell C sim card in your phone.
Should take 6 to 24 hours to port. Remember to finish your airtime on Vodacom, you can't migrate your airtime.
Also backup your contacts to your phone memory and not your sim card.

Can't wait to see the new data prices for high end users!
