    How much 1GB of data costs in South Africa compared with the rest of the world

    Afrihost Mobile Feedback

    Sorry for the maybe simple follow-up question...but I am second-guessing your reply now. ;) Both the sim's I want to port have been RICA'd in my mother's name. If I go into the Afrihost app and add/port a new number to my account, can I then choose my own RICA details? Or should I RICA the...

    Afrihost Mobile Feedback
