Does anyone know if CellC offer data-only SIMs like Vodacom?

I am considering to move my phone number and contract to CellC from Vodacom. There I have 1 phone number, 1 contract, 1 SIM for my phone and 2 data-only SIMs (iPad, USB modem). They all use the same data bundle and allow me to phone, surf at the same time from 3 devices. It's not a dual sim, but data-only SIMs. Vodacom offers up to 5 of these data-only SIMs against your contract.

If CellC does not offer it, how do you get all your devices to work? Do have to get separate numbers & data bundles for your iPad and USB modem?

What is the quality of the CellC network like for voice and data? I'm based in Cape Town.

Thanks in advance

Cell-C don't have data SIMs yet.

Since they reduced their out-of-bundle rates after a data bundle is depleted to R0.15 per MB for all bundles, it doesn't really matter whether you buy one big bundle or lots of small ones. Also they have a 3GB bundle valid for 365 days:

But that still means that I have to sign up for 3 different numbers/contracts and cannot share data out of 1 pool

Consider getting a portable wifi router like the Huawei E586 i am sure it would suit your internet and some storage needs for your ipad and other devices u use daily.
