What's the international currency conversion fee rate with Tyme? I can't seem to find the answer on their site.

Tried to buy once-off all-network data bundle with my Tyme card using Telkom Mobile app:

751974

First I got:

751976

So tried again and then got:

751978

Hi

I believe there was (is?) a know issue between telkom and tyme
Thanks, wasn't aware. Of course I can just buy data bundles directly from the TymeBank app, and that works fine. But would be cool if I could do so from the TM app when my data is depleted and no wifi is available, since that's zero-rated by Telkom. Hopefully they'll fix it.

Anyone know whether Steam purchases (in Rands) are seen as local or international online transactions?

It seems to be handled directly by Steam's payment processor so international. Unless a company has a local presence using a local payment processor it would always be international whether it's in Rands or other currency.

Unless Tyme supports international transactions but not forex. So just try it.

There's an issue with Telkom and Tyme debit orders. Debit cards are supposed to be agnostic.

My telkom debit order went through without a glitch
