eSIM on Prepaid! Almost impossible

[Foxhound5366]

So, whos offering the best Esim package?
Im not keen on paying vodacom R25 a month just for a number,

I was looking at Melon etc, but they dont seem to offer?

I’ve got a Telkom eSim on my prepaid number. No monthly fee (I never bother topping it up). Best deal?

I’ve got an MTN prepaid Esim with Airmobile and have zero issues since June, wifi calling works as well.

How did you manage that and what’s the costs like?

Went to an MTN shop at Mall of Africa and asked for an Esim. Took less then 5 mins and sim was active immediately. Costed nothing for the esim. Just needed docs for Rica.

Using this for data.

Hi guys,
Does anyone know if it's possible to get an MTN eSim for my main prepaid account and then get a physical sim card from a provider like megsApp to use for data on an iPhone?

So tired of the expiring/wasted/lost data from MTN prepaid.

Going by the post quoted above yes, make the eSim the default for calls and megsapp sim default for data.
The megsapp call rates are very good 69c per minute and it never expires, what network do they run on?

If you want to play around with eSIM

Try to register with Melon (melonmobile.co.za) or Air Mobile (afrihost.com/airmobile) just by using their App you can get the eSIM QR code and it will be active within minutes
