And MTN look after their Pre-Paid customers as well.
eg. [email protected] = 80c P\Mb
[email protected] = 60c P\Mb
[email protected] = 50c P\Mb
After all we do not have to dance to VM's tune now
that MTN dropped their data rates.

Let's face it, CellZ has lost the plot a long time ago - they utterly suck.

Virgin tarrifs
At his stage I use both prepaid MTN and prepaid VirginM.
I am using MTN bundles and can't complain about their data sevice.
I still prefer the VIRGIN .50c/Mb tarrif and the best of VM is that you are not bound to a monthly BUNDLE.

Same here, but once in a while when the VM signal is OK then the
speed is better than MTN's, but it is the unreliability of VM that is a pain
and my MTN is very much OK.

Now if MTN can just reduce the initial cost...
I would be hesitant to buy such a large bundle and HAVE to use it up every month. If it were a smaller bundle, then we would have the flexibiliity to use it when we need it and then recharge.

I doubt it, they can barely cope with the network load as it is.
It sounds like you may use it for 3 months, without signing a data bundle deal for 24 months.
I will check it out and see for 3 months.
I might come back to VM, who knows.
Maybe Vodacom and VM will come with better deals in the next 3 months..

Hi Haasbroek,
Thank you for your insight, taken note of the several comments re: the same issue.
To respond to everyone's comments, it does indeed seem as though pricing has eventually become more competitive, and following that trend we will ensure that our offerrings on our permanent out of bundle rates remain so.
Regards,
Gerald.

Just make sure you upgrade the network infrastructure too to cope with the increased load.

Better Service, Better Prices
Well, virgin 50c/MB used to be a match for vodacom and MTN 1 gig bundles in terms of price. Now its more than double the price at less than 1 tenth of the speed and other networks looks to be pretty impressive.... For Virgin to keep the ratio, and in a certain sence the clients willing to put up with the unreliable service, the way i see it, they need to match the 1gig in bundle rate on their out of bundle rate. SOOO vrgin, how would you feel about charging us 19c/MB out of bundle? COz thats how we as customers would feel about using your services.
You say yay, we might agree, you say nay, we agree fully, and would start using other service providers.
Just my 2c. (could have been my 0,76c)
