Hi guys. I am about to take a control chat 175 contract (R195 airtime and 100 sms).

My question is can i use the 'free' or included airtime to purchase data bundles?

I know for a fact that u can not do this on mtn and was hoping that cell c is different. Also how is the prepaid data bundles on cell c?

You can buy data bundles, sms bundles and BIS with inclusive airtime on Contral Chat.
Data/sms bundles do not carry over though, so valid for 30 days.

Are you aware of the new contracts about to come out? Just check with them if you will be able to migrate and what the cost will be if you sign now. Or just wait till 20 June I'd suggest.

I am aware of the new deal but i getting the new contract for a real steal.

Out of interest, what do u think the sim card with 195 airtime and 100 sms a month for 2 years is worth? As in a once of cost, no further monthly charges?

You mean something similar to offers in this thread?

For R195 airtime and 100 sms x 24 I'd say about R2000 once off. But if you have found a really good deal, please post in that thread. Be careful buying off bid or buy though. I have seen some similar deals listed there but the charges are too good to be true. You could get scammed.

Thanx for the tip. I bought 2 contracts from dis guy so he trustable. I getting it for under 700 plus a charge for delivery.

I will post the guys email once i get mine. He has limited stock but u cnt port ur number, the sims have numbers assigned already, hence the delivery charge. But i want it for data for my tablet. And cell c has very whooosh speeds.

I learnt from the 8ta hotspot sale to get 1 before u share info, almost didnt get my huawei s7 slim for R50 a month.
