8ta coverage map inaccurate..

[Kross84]

I stay next to Silverstar Casino - Krugersdorp.
On 8ta.com it shows clearly I have 8ta 3G coverage. Not MTN roaming. But when I tried the signal, I simply cannot get 8ta signal, only MTN roaming..

I'm bummed because as you know currently they have the best data deals. And they catch you whereby these deals are only applicable within 8ta's own coverage areas..

Maybe the value of these deals are so good because some farm communities have better networks??

8ta why have the flippen coverage map on your website in the first place and get us all excited!!

You need to network lock your 8ta sim for the data promotions.
