Just loaded 100MB on 10 Jan and noticed today that I have nothing left, even though a few days ago I had over 30MB left.
Does cell c data on pre-paid only last for the 1 month??

Yes, I am almost sure they also tell you the "expiry" date for the data package when you load it.

bought it from the banking app ... so did not see that.
that is a pity ... surely 30days is just too short!!
is that the same deal with airtime as well??
also, where does the CPA fit into this?? surely this goes against the CPA??

Yep, it does.
For the price that you pay, 15c per meg both in and out of bundle - not really an issue for me.

Go have a look at the sms that told you the data has been loaded. I am sure it will state it in there.

If you use so little data, rather buy the R7.50 bundle worth 50 mb :)

ok... just checked .. and it seems that airtime at least is more reasonable ... something like 3 months
data should be at least 60 days

What is a problem if you can load R7.50 50MB bundle and when finished use 15c/MB OOB for the reamining of the bundle period (30 days)?
What is your 100MB bundle rate? Also 15c/MB. Do the math.

Unfortunately it is 30 days :( on CELL C on Vodacom I think it's 3months window if not mistaken. -

We should start a thread "Asking Questions to CELL C" that marketing campaign if people are aware of your rates etc :)

For prepaid data, sure its max 2 mnths. Dont forget the oob shark.

I mean with the flat rate of R0.15c per MB all you just have to do is to buy small. if its finished then load again...simple.
