Afrihost: Two SIM's for one Mobile Data Package

[Zertop]

Hi,

I was wondering if it were possible to link two SIM cards to one Mobile Data Package.
For Example, one Mobile Two Package to be shared between an iPad and Mifi, using two SIM's?

@Afriman, Afrigirl, Afriguy - If you could answer that would be great.

Cheers

Will you be using the iPad and Mifi at the same location? Seems a bit redundant if the two devices are near each other.

To answer your question, I seem to remember AfriMan or AfriGuy saying in another thread that they'll look into adding this functionality at a later stage.

Thanks! And I have no idea - the thought came to me this morning, I was just wondering.

Cannot be done. Maybe in the future.

This can be done on contract. If Afrihost actually bring a product like this into the market it will definitely be popular & I don't care if I take mobile two&mobile three package and they combine the data into 1 package.

Not at this stage, it may be on the cards for a little later but nothing confirmed just yet

Lol, also thought of this, this morning.

Any update ?

Thanks for reviving this.
I have two tablets.
The one is mostly at home being used as a router for the whole household's use.
Obviously I can just get another sim for the other tablet. I use this tablet on trips instead of slogging a laptop along.
My problem is you guys have no data carry-over. I use this tab very seldom.
If it was possible to combine the data of the two sims it will be a large benefit. Even better: Allow two sims with one contract.
Your feedback will be appreciated.

I asked a similar question here and never got a response: http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php/580259-MTN-extra-data-sim

Two sims on one MTN contract, both sharing Afrihost data would be perfect for me.

Not happening soon.

Adding my voice to this - as it will simplify the purchase of data bundles etc... instead of having two (or more) AH SIM's and needing to purchase bandwidth for each and every SIM...

I've recently ordered an extra SIM (the cheapest AH mobile offer ) for wife's iPad so that she can have connectivity should Telkom's lines go down for whatever reason.

As long as Afrihost runs on MTN you can forget about it.
Mtn is just useless in this regard.
