Good day Rain,

Can you please provide the following information here please.

1> How does payments work ?
2 > How does your 4G service work? Can I use my own router with 4G service?
3 > If I am not happy with your service how long does it take to cancel ? What are the steps for cancelling?

1) They come off your credit card
2)You can use your own cellphone for the 4G service
3 & 4 IDK
 
I did this 2 years ago, and lasted a month before cancelling...

You can get a Rain SIM at nearly every Clicks (its free)

1) When you active SIM you need to supply bank info / Card Info
2) You can use the SIM in your phone or your own router
3) You pay up front, so they cancel it for the end of the month (no prorata refund), also if I remember correctly I had to cancel (using their app) before a certain day of the month otherwise it was another 30 days.
4) You download their app and when you activate the SIM, it ask for bank details, take a photo of your ID & utility bill

Activation and cancellation was quite easy.

I believe that may not be a thing anymore, the only service rain offers now is Rain One

www.rain.co.za

rain — South Africa's unlimited 5G network

Unlimited 5G home wifi, portable 5G & unlimited mobile — all without contracts. rainone from R679/mo, the loop from R699/mo, unlimited mobile from R595/mo
www.rain.co.za www.rain.co.za

You have to get the 5G Home plus the two "free" 4G mobile sim cards.

It is a "S_H_I_T" deal, R50/GB is a pathetic rate for the mobile data.

edit: Does MBB really block the word "****" or is that a setting I have on my end?

Rain doesn't have 4g anymore. Just 5g via Rain One.

No they are blocking the word.
 
Just a FYI data prices are going up next month or the month after. It is said it will be significant that is why we had to drop our fibre connection. Got too expensive to fast. As you all know Fibre people are looking for human money bags rest of South Africa can go **** themsleves.

Honestly I wish they will have a massive ****ing gathering and burn these ****ing service providers to the ground give them a ****ing reason to serve the people. They better be careful because the way the cost of living is climbing to EU prices it might actually ****ing happen but this time I ENJOY the flames. **** it and **** all the ISPs of this country.

Hold out till black Friday and most of the providers will have some great data deals.

I am paying R400pm for a 24month contract with Vodacom. 500gb+500gb with a router.

have you considered MTN F-LTE?
 
catdog said:
Yes i got a prepaid sim to test it today there is no MTN signal turns out they don't even have towers in the area so you will be getting whatever tower is willing to spit out.

what FNO is in your area, seems odd you would have fiber but no MTN.

Sorry but I am still paying for mother dear's FTTH connection in Cape Town. And the pricing still way cheaper than 5G or LTE and guess what, it works during Stage 6 LS (as long as you can keep providing power to the ONT)

You could have simply downgraded to a lower speed and saved hundreds, surely?!

That is the thing right, it is actually the lowest speed that I have and they are pushing up the price of it. Not clue why but I guess they need more money for that loop they use to **** us with. Also it wasn't just my decision we are a large family that share a small house so everyone pays their little bit. The vote was 3 to 1 guess who the idiot was that tried to keep it running. Anyhow I don't need internet. There was a time I didn't even have a phone so **** it.
