[NeonNinja]

Loaded 1GB and R100 airtime.

When I check after a couple hundreds of MB's, I have 122MB left and R0!

It doesn't. My brother regularly has his artime go to R0 and then magically reappear hours later. He is moving when his contract is done.

Yeah MTN service has become ****ty these days

Never was the case with me.

It deducted airtime before all of the data, and I'm on prepaid.

Not to mention all the spam, I'm glad my primary number is voda.

Same reason (well, one of them) I cancelled my wife's MTN contract last year. Samsung phone shows 20MB data usage for the month (21st-20th cycle), but MTN says she used 400MB.

What spam are you referring to? Is it sms or email? What?

Sms, all the recharge today and receive x amount free airtime. I get 1 sms everyday on my mtn number.

SMS, they send you all kinds of deals and special and reminders. I somehow had successfully unsubscribed from that.

Count yourself blessed, it annoys the crap out of me. No idea how to unsubscribe from it.

Actually had a great time with Telkom Mobile (8ta back then). Only reason I cancelled my data contract, was because I went ADSL, and on phone contracts they always had ****ty phones.

Try:

Dial *130*603#

STOP
30246

That's my umpteenth attempt, first time receiving SMS.

 

[Zuner]

Try:

Lol well that didn't help..

 

[supersunbird]

Lol well that didn't help..

Oh crap, try again.

 

[Zuner]

Oh crap, try again.

Ok its a toggle code tried it again and it opted out, but that means I was already opted out, and still get spam smses.

Did you do both?

 

[Zuner]

I did, no reply on the sms. Time will tell I guess.

EDIT
an hour later and I got a reply.
