Buying BIS with contract airtime

[Jamo114]

Hi there,

I am considering getting a Blackberry for the convenience of BBM and the unlimited browsing for R59 pm.
What I want to do is get a TopUp 135 contract and pay in however much to get a Blackberry, then use the airtime that I get each month to buy the BIS. Is this possible to do with the airtime acquired from a contract, or does it have to be bought airtime? I wouldn't want to get one and realize I have to spend another R59 pm.

Thanks in advance

Hi Jamo114,

If you looking to be part of the BlackBerry Community I would look firstly at what MTNDIRECT.CO.ZA have on offer - BlackBerry handset, if budget would allow I would recommend you sign-up for Torch 9800 R329 includes R200 airtime&BIS...

Unfortunately on TOP of Contracts you unable to use the TOPUP CREDITS you receive every month to convert to use BIS... If you looking at new contract also look at Altech new store in Eastgate not sure if the promotion is still on but they did have a lovely deal and I did feel tempted to sign-up.

Neither, BIS is an addon only, no matter which contract you take topup or not the BIS is an additional cost, the only way to buy BIS using airtime is to be on prepaid.
