on 5 August 2012
8ta, South Africa’s youngest mobile operator, today announced 8ta more, their new Prepaid offer, that rewards customers instantly with free airtime every time they recharge with R10 or more.
The free airtime reward can be used instantly for calls, data, SMS and MMS anytime and to any South African network. This significantly differentiates 8ta from the competition.
Amith Maharaj, 8ta’s Senior Managing Executive, says of the network’s new offer: “We are excited to announce that 8ta is now able to offer customers a value proposition that is simple to understand and affords the customer all the flexibility in deciding how and when to use their free airtime”.
The key feature of the value proposition is a sliding scale benefit that allows customers to instantly get free airtime with every recharge of R10 or more. A recharge of R50 or more rewards the customer with a 100% of the recharge value for free... cont.

Inb4 120GB @ R900.
If you're allowed to buy data bundles with your free airtime, I foresee myself making some epic savings on data from the 12th August.

R75 airtime - reward R75 airtime?

If true, one can get that 2 gb + 1 gb special by R75 and still have R3 airtime left.

If I understand their site properly, then that's the gist of it. Great isn't it ?. I'm just hoping that they actually let you buy data bundles with the extra airtime. They might not, as all their bundles would effectively be half price. Their 60+60 promo works out R15/GB and that's not even taking into account midnight data.

no, it's R15/GB taking it into account.


8ta Rep, does this mean we can load R900 airtime and buy the 60+60 Special?

[Malfeasant]

no, it's R15/GB taking it into account.


8ta Rep, does this mean we can load R900 airtime and buy the 60+60 Special?

R900 / 60GB = R15/GB (without extra 60GB midnight data)
R900 / 120GB = R7.50/GB (with 60GB midnight data)

That should be right, unless my math is waaaaaay off this evening.

Ah, you mean IF the Promo was valid for the 60+60 special, then yes.

Ah, sorry didn't even see that thread. Guess my excitement go the better of me.

That sucks though that you can't use it for data bundles, though I guess it is understandable.
