Hi, I was wondering, would I be able to buy a sim, convert it to the 3gig promo, or even the 60+60gig, and pop it into my samsung galaxy s3 and be able to also make normal voice calls from it?

the 3gb or 60+60gb promo's are data bundles which you need to load on your sim card, so yes, as long as you have airtime, you can still make voice calls.
 
It will ONLY work in 8ta coverage area. Your sim will not be able to roam on MTN anymore. Ask me. I am learning the hard way!
 
Coverage map on 8ta's website, only for their coverage or does it include the MTN roaming?
 
At the top of the map click the '8ta Network' button. That will show you more or less where 8ta's coverage is.
 
I think it's time I activated my 8ta sim card. There is no way I'm paying R389 for 2GB on Mtn.

Only one problem, where do I go to have it activated because we don't have an 8ta agent in town.

Customers can also purchase and RICA their SIMs from any of 8.ta’s channels then call 081180 or 081183 to convert to the pre-paid PSB Data Promo Rate plan first giving them access to the Once-Off Internet 60GB Promo bundle [plus 3GB].

You can go to any Telkom store, Checkers, Shoprite, CNA, Edgars, PEP stores, Ackermans- Most dealers I think.

Hi phazer_

Just to confirm.

Changing your SIM to PSB Promo is an one-way action.
You will not be able to change it to another Tariff plan.
The PSB Promo only works on the 8ta network and cannot roam on MTN.
Therefore, you will only be able to make and receive calls, when you are in a covered area.

Thank you
8ta
