Hello.Hi Afrigril, can you tell me what SIM swap fraud prevention are you running on the new network? If someone tries to do a Sim swop who is not me will they be able to? Can only the account holder/RICA contact request it?
That is good to know!Hello.
They will not be able to; our AIrmobile Sim swap needs to be logged with support using a picture of yourself with your ID and a piece of paper with the date of the request. The submitted photo will only be valid for 7 days .
We have logged it with MTN, sessions are dropping, causing the error each time a client tries to authenticate.
I am sorry the support experience was bad. What error message are you receiving on the app?Really bad WhatsApp support today.
Tryied to transfer airtime between two of my Afrihost numbers. It failed, each time.
Their answer, well you should use the client zone. Erm, I used your app, well that doesn't work so use the Web.
Poor, surely at least try and fix the app?
Are you using the Afrihost app or the Air Mobile app.Really bad WhatsApp support today.

Morning.Afrihost, please make the app zero-rated so we can buy data when depleted. So frustrating having to switch to another network or use WiFi to buy, since I only notice when I'm out and about. This is on an eSim if it makes a difference.
Morning.Hi Afrihost,
We have about 10x clients that make use of your mail-hosting , they are mostly using the Linux Platinum (250 mailboxes) packages.
We get a lot of emails containing virusses when downloading email.
Is there an additional service/subscription that we must get from Afrihost in order to get all the emails scanned before downloading it from the Afrihost servers ?
We have antivirus on the devices that downloads the emails, but it is a huge risk to filter the mail at the endpoint.
In the past when we had clients with Mweb , they used Mail-Marshall to scan/filter and delete emails with virusses/malware before the mails are being dropped in the mail-drop account.
Thank you.
For which account is this?At least they are consistent...
It takes a week to prepare a SIM, then another week to deliver it. Ordered on 21 Nov, still not delivered!

They can monitor on *136# and you can set up an auto top up with a limit.I PM'ed you.
To change the subject: the data pricing on these SIMs is currently favourable compared to your competitors. However, anyone who uses the app also has full access to the linked bank account!!!
Is there any way to "dumb down" the Air Mobile app, so that kids can monitor their data usage without having full access to the linked bank account?
That is exactly why the kids need access to a dumb-down app. If it is not already available, AH should develop this. It should not be difficult and they can pay me R47 billion for the idea...They can monitor on *136# and you can set up an auto top up with a limit.
Never give kids access to anything that has payment functions. I learned that with billings up to R2000 for credit purchases by my ex wife's daughter on her phone that was linked for a single purchase and forgotten about... School fees for me. Never trust children, they lack the capacity of reasoning.
They are on CPANEL with Professional Spam Filter enabled, but it doesnt stop any emails containing virusses/malware in the attachments.Morning.
The Linux-shared hosting packages come with a Professional Spam Filter.
