Wow exciting! Grabbing one as soon as it becomes available

Apologies for the stupid question, but how exactly will this work? Will they be shipping me the sim card once I sign up, or is the connection made via the MiFi device (and similar devices). And if it's a sim card, is voice supported alongside the data?

To the best of my knowledge they will be supplying you with a SIM. It will also work with a contract MTN SIM.

Is the 3GB free a night surfer ? if it is then this for me is no different to whats available currently in bigger bundles which suits me more then just 2GB.

So as an MTN contract subscriber we can use it on our phones, by simply changing the APN?

I complained to Afriman at the price of the top up data. I have to apologise. Brilliant.

it says Anytime data on their website

*Mobile Two Packages will get an additional 3GB of FREE Anytime data on top of the normal 2GB's until 28 February 2014, at which point the offer will be revised or extended.

 

[RSkeens]

That's some truly incredible pricing, well done.

 

[DTBA]

How can they be this cheap but other people not

 

[bullzeye.za]

Will you be able to offer microsims on this package?

 

[HapticSimian]

You're building a bit of history with market shake-ups, Afrihost. Congrats! Here's hoping you've turned it into a habit.

 

[Speedster]

Kudos to Afrihost. Great to see them shaking up the market again.

I have you admit though, I can't help but smile at my 10GB for R199 every time I see something like this.

 

[distantclarity]

If that's got you smiling then you'll be blown away by what's coming for Afrihost DSL products this year still

My God... I was not expecting much difference compared to the 8ta specials but this is pretty impressive, defo getting a sim.

Edit: shout out to distantclarity my man.

The Pre-Order package will come with a Standard-to-Micro Breakable SIM card
