    Webafrica whatsapp response time

    That's pretty bad. I phoned their telephone line as well, given a message that their "whatsapp support line is lightning fast with responses within 5 mins!". Now counting nearly 2 hours awaiting response.

    Webafrica whatsapp response time

    I'm helping someone out with their line, I've been waiting for a response for more than 1h30m on the whatsapp line. I'm aware WA has something of reputation, but is this typical?

    MTN eSIM on iPhone 13?

    It will depend a lot on the person helping you. I had multiple MTN employees tell me that eSIM is not compatible with mobile phones, until I found someone in a branch who had no problem sim-swapping my data-only sim to an eSIM. It shouldn't matter what phone you're using. I just said I would...

    Mecer 2400VA Inverter (Community Support)

    I understand that, but what is the device I linked? “Mecer 2400VA (1440W) Inverter Battery Charger (UPS)” https://www.takealot.com/mecer-2400va-1440w-inverter-battery-charger-ups/PLID34200263 Is it simply a device to only charge batteries? It seems to imply it supplies an output?

    Mecer 2400VA Inverter (Community Support)

    Giving in! Looking at a inverter + battery setup to survive 2.5 hours of load shedding per day. In addition to the 1st/2nd/3rd gen of Mecer Inverters, I also see there are some of these Mecer inverters that also claim to be UPSs (like this one) With regards to batteries, I'm not sure exactly...

    MTN eSim availability.

    Yeah, email support was completely clueless. I phoned support and luckily the first person I spoke to was able to send me the email immediately! Now living that sweet dual eSIM data life.

    MTN eSim availability.

    I visited a branch today and did a sim swap to eSIM. I received an email saying the sim swap was successful, but I never got the email with the QR code. I contacted support, who gave me a copy-pasted response with instructions on how to pair a watch to my phone. :-/
