Anyone on the 20gb freeme package can give their thoughts

I need to confirm if there are free any network minutes on this and with the data how are the speeds in LTE areas

Also can I cap my monthly spend..I.e. put a limit per month rand wise on the contract to make sure I don't exceed it

You can manage your spend limit on the app or web portal. I had them set it to 0 at contract initiation and then did it myself when I was settled - can also do once-off bumps and all that, and it works, unlike the other networks.

You supposedly get up to 1500 off-network minutes on the 20Gb package. Telkom mobile and landline are free and separate to that amount.

Awesome. Lots of value in this contract then ...

I'm also gonna port from a prepaid number. Hopefully that ain't painful

I was surprised at home much easier that has gotten. Telkom gave me a new number so that I could take my phone immediately, then initiated a port, which went through after 7PM that same day.

If you want to check the network, can always get a prepaid sim and give it a whirl.
 
Took the deal. How do I check my voice minutes balance? ... Sending *188# only gives me my data balances

PS: Porting was a breeze

So I just got off the call with Telkom mobile. They telling me there is no way to check my available minutes (of the 1500 off net and 3000 on net minutes I have ) ... I was told to wait for an sms when I reach my quota


This can't be right ... Yeah sent an arb text to that number and got nothing back lol
