Afrihost 10c OOB data soft launch

Actually R102.40/GB

But 10X better than R1013.76/GB on Cell C @ 99c per MB.
Or than R1024/GB on MTN @ R1 per MB
Or than R2048/GB on Vodacom @ R2 per MB!

There, you've ended the argument in a few seconds! Well done!
 
Great stuff Afrihost. How is it possible for you guys to implement these rates AND control mechanisms in an arena that is not your core business/product, where conversely the mobile carriers are at pains - as their core business - to offer a solution? It is really mind boggling!! Well done...

R100/GB. Hmm.

The idea is not to choose between topups or OOB, but to use whichever is more convenient. If you see 2 for 1 is on, by all means grab it at R49.50 per GB. But if you only have an hour before the end of the month and you're capped, better to spend a few rands and not have data expire :)

Thanks for the kudos! I think it's becuase we are small that we can break the mould - but also because we trust our clients to come to the party and make these deals work. Trust is the only real currency that matters in business these days :)

Exactly
 
I wonder how MTN feels about Afrihost killing MTN's prices on their own network.

MTN is very happy about this. It allows MTN Wholesale to get data to the public through a 3rd party at a cheaper rate, without actually pissing off existing MTN clients.
 
Will this apply to the Afrihost APN on MTN sim cards?
