Howzit,
Ive been downloading gigs of stuff ever since i got my bb 9900 in dec last year.I'm aware that cahrges apply for tethering and streaming but as of april last month , mtn gave me 2gigs free and charged me for the balance which was nother 3gigs. I see for may they also did the same thing.Thanks
To all you butthurting children who lack the ability to read (or, at the very least, ask someone to clarify) he mentions that he's aware that tethering and streaming incurs charges but he pays them anyway (don't know why). As was pointed out, if he tethers and streams, that is not covered by BIS and so he is not (technically) utilising BIS and so he can't be abusing BIS if he's not using it. Even if he IS going through BIS, if he's paying R2/mb, I think he fully deserves to "abuse" it, don't you?
What he is saying (unless I am incorrect, Shaman11) is that he used to download using a tethering and got charged for all three gigs (i.e. R2 x 3gigs). Lately, though, he notices that MTN has not charged him for the first 2 gigs (i.e. he sees the charge that was normally R2 x 3 gigs is now equal to R2 x 1 gig even though he/ she knows he/ she used 3 gigs).
What he/ she is then asking is: Is MTN allowing you to tether your BlackBerry and giving you a 2GB allowance?
Exactly what is everyone ragging about?
Shaman11, I don't know. I don't tether and don't use MTN BIS and don't know exactly. I haven't read anything else either. Maybe it was a glitch: if MTN can cock-up and charge people for BIS related activities, maybe they incorrectly DON'T charge people for non-BIS related activities. *shrug*
