Telkom prepaid LTE has the 250GB @ 10 Mbps, then goes to 50MB @ 4 Mbps, thereafter apparently down to 2 Mbps unlimited for remainder of the 30 or 31 days.I've started on 10 gig, up to 20, to 40, now on 100 gig. I'm sure this won't be enough soon. What can we do.
Costs R249. Validity from 12 midnight to 7pm (so off-peak essentially). SIM must be on Smartbroadband Wireless (otherwise called LTE Prepaid) for it to come up as an option - I know about the name change alternate, as I've recently RICA'd a new SIM to test it out.
Intend loading the airtime tomorrow to start using it.
It's ludicrous of Telkom, that if you want the peak hours included - 5 of them from 7pm to midnight - they charge R849 !
Rather use 2 separate SIMs for peak vs off-peak (if you decide on trying it as well).
I don't trust Telkom enough to split usage of capped vs uncapped products on the same SIM.
