I remember reading about cellc bringing their 99c call rates to their data only contracts.
Is this still happening or has it happened already?

Im actually very angry @ cellc c. They sold me a data contract with a modem. The simcard they sent me was in a starter pack the clearly says that calls are 99c per minute billed per second. Now I see that is not happening and I'm being charged R1.50 per minute billed per minute....

Im Also very angry with them, as after my 24Gb was done after a year I said give me a new sim card for the 99c per sec deal then Ill add the data from the voucher .

I was told no need to change the sim just top up your old sim and dial ... bla bla bla and you will have the 99cent deal ....well we all know that this is Bull sh ! t :mad:

Same situation here. Was told because I had data sim so I can't go onto 99c so I did as the call center suggested and did a simply swap. Still same story. Apparently onceyu have your number on a data sim there is not getting off it. How stupid. Thinking about porting to vc as the only way to get my number out of their stupid data sim system.

I had to go in and get a new sim and another 1299 for data ,but this time got the 99c call sim (prepaid) then added the 24G 12 month thing to the new card and put that in my iPhone.

The other card i have now lives in my Note and I dont make calls with it.

They just pi ss me off
