    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    After signing up for the 50GB x 24 at R199 p.m two days ago, this morning I received this SMS out of the blue: I have no idea what this is. Has someone at MTN just added a package to my subscription? I have had multiple experiences with fraud by MTN employees in the past (they operate with...

    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    It happened to me once, specifically on 10 September at 13:04. I added my numbers back, and it hasn't happened since... This happened on my just expired 400GB (+200GB promo) contract R349 x 36mo contract.

    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    I just took out the 50gb @ R199 x24 month contract in-store. No problem adding it to my existing pre-paid number. But the store employees were adamant that DataShare now only works to Contract-recipients, regardless if it was Personal or Business contracts. I didn't believe them , as recently...

    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    Has anyone seen any confirmation that the full 50GB is shareable with DataShare on the current R199 promo? I'm also wondering if one can get this contract loaded onto an existing pre-paid MTN number. I'd rather not get a new number.

    MTN eSIM for Google Pixel Watch 2 LTE (Prepaid)

    I never got it right with MTN. I managed to load a Vodacom eSIM with an internet starter pack in the end, however I had to jump through a few hoops including using an international eSIM during setup, see here...

    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    Also had the 600+600 for R399 but they only gave me 500+500. Tried to complain but as usual with MTN that is near impossible so gave up. Previous posts here speak about Business Plans being restricted to Datashare only to other postpaid, but my plan is indeed a Personal plan, so the...

    MTN Black Friday Discussions

    I currently have a 500GB + 500GB (400GB shareable) contract from Black Friday 2022, which I use in my home LTE router. DataShare is linked to 4 prepaid SIMs. This is a personal contract (not business), and I believe the underlying plan is the MyMTN 400 contract. The 36-month contract is almost...

    MTN eSIM for Google Pixel Watch 2 LTE (Prepaid)

    Hi everyone, I have a Google Pixel Watch 2 LTE and am currently using an MTN prepaid SIM in my Google Pixel phone. I'm trying to figure out how to get an eSIM from MTN that will work with my watch. The idea is for the eSIM to be linked to the SIM in my phone, allowing it to share calls and...

    MTN Datashare Changes - 2/11

    Any views here if MTN is legally allowed to limit this datashare on existing contracts? Has anyone tried to file an official complaint, if so what was the response, if any?

    MTN Datashare Changes - 2/11

    A As far as I understand only Enterprise (business) contracts are imposed a 50gb limit, consumer contracts will not have a further GB-limitation

    MTN Datashare Changes - 2/11

    Shocking, I still have 2yrs to go on my contract, with 400GB sharable data monthly. I rely heavily on the data sharing within the family on multiple devices, currently utilising about 10 SIMs. Can MTN really change these terms in the middle of a contract period? It significantly changes the...

    MTN Alters Data Share Terms: Reduces Maximum Linked Numbers from 20 to 5

    This is quite terrible, I wonder if it will affect current users, if so are they allowed to change term contracts like this? I wonder what happens if one currently has more than 5 numbers linked, if they will remain on, or removed? If they remain on, then might be time to link as many numbers...
