    Master plan for SMSs and OTPs after immigrating

    Vodacom/Telkom prepaid VoWiFi work like a charm overseas (for me, at least). In fact, I keep roaming deactivated to make sure I still pay local rates. Not sure about this solution long term though.

    Wifi Calling overseas

    Vodacom/Telkom works perfectly for me when I’m out of the country. Vodacom treats all transactions as local, not sure about Telkom.

    Telkom 5G on Mobile Device

    Nope. And they don’t plan to. https://techcentral.co.za/why-telkom-hasnt-launched-5g-on-phones/248186/

    Cheapest way to receive sms's while roaming - MTN

    WiFi Calling’s just what the product’s commonly known as. It does SMS too, at your usual rates.

    Cheapest way to receive sms's while roaming - MTN

    Port over to Vodacom and take advantage of their unrestricted WiFi calling. You’d get more out of it than the free inbound SMS.

    WiFi Calling/5G?

    I’m aware. Call quality, yes. But also just access to the phone number when you’re not in their coverage.

    WiFi Calling/5G?

    On the mobile sims. Any chance of that ever happening? Or am I being too ambitious?

    Vodacom VoWifi issue

    Still works locally. I hope they haven’t geo-blocked it

    Poor Vodacom signal in Pretoria

    It’s actually the best network for me in those areas.

    Porting out of rainOne?

    I have a spare number I’ve been parking on one of my rainOne sims that I want to start using. If I port it out, will the SIM get assigned a new number (as I am paying for it, after all)? I’m aware Telkom assigns new numbers to SIMs after a port out, even if it’s just regular prepaid.

    Was down for me too, seems like it’s back up now though.

    FNB Connect doing well

    Second time I’ve seen MyBB use the word “cooking” in a headline. Who gave the Gen Z intern posting privileges?

    Prepaid LTE SIM - Data Bundles

    I’ve always gotten full 5G speeds on those bundles.

    Vowifi issues

    Works perfectly internationally, I've even turned roaming off in favour of using it full time (for SMSes mostly. Calls work fine but there's always a bit of latency)
