FreeMe not all that great

[momo235]

Does anyone know what the cost of add on data bundles and voice bundles are on freeme packages?

Just doublecheck 1gb. Some got it with sim only deal. I got it as a device linked deal but it has fallen away to my knowledge. None of the hardcopy brochures mention it so best to verify it before committing. If 1gb still valid its the best deal imho.

If OP is such a power user then he should be looking at http://www.telkom.co.za/today/unlimited-broadband/ not the FreeMe package

That LTE offering from Telkom is tied to a base station from what I understand. It's tied to your property, not meant for mobile usage. Also, I won't enter into a contract with Telkom.

It's not tied to anything.

I have 3x LTE uncapped and they were all ordered using the same address. Only 1 of the 3 is being used at the order address. The other 2 are in different suburbs and on different towers. No problems after several months.

Free Me works for my needs perfectly, around 800MB used a month, all my regular contacts are also on Telkom. Then I just have prepaid credit for if I need to phone my Vodacom friends.

FreeMe 1GB @ R99 plus R50 for other number calls is pretty good. I have my own device so that is all I pay, mush better than 24 month contract @ around R600.

Think I'll stay on the Smartplan, 1GB + 100minutes (any network) +.., just because the Freeme doesn't have minutes to phone other networks.

That Option was killed at the beginning of August 2016. I am still in a back-and-forth with Telkom since I renewed at the beginning of August under that premise and am not going to take the "brochure+website error" laying down.

That was a pretty sweet deal. 2 years ago I signed up for it with a crappy samsung phone -R99 per month. There was even unlimited data for the first 3 months or so. And I just bought my own device
