I'm aware that Midnight Data is from 00:00 to 06:00 but is Anytime Data really "anytime" or is it rather 06:00 to 00:00?
The reason I ask is because I depleted my Midnight Data on my Giga20 this morning. I expected it to continue consuming my Anytime Data but instead it started consuming my available airtime at R0.99/MB (at 2MB/s it goes quick!).
After my airtime was depleted I was left without a connection. So it stands to reason that Anytime is actually not "anytime" but rather 06:00 to 00:00?

Can anyone provide some clarity on this matter?

"On Giga 20 you will receive 5GB peak data (6am to midnight) and 15GB midnight data (midnight and 6am)"

Sad but true...

I missed that part completely. Thanks for clarifying that for me. I will plan accordingly going forward :)

Wow, I've had several Giga 200 packages and I never noticed that this applies to them too. :eek:

I know iBurst packages have anytime data and midnight-to-morning data and just assumed the Cell C packages worked the same.
 
I don't want to derail this thread but downloading @ 2MB/s on Cellc.... That must just be a myth because if I get 30KB/s on Cellc I jump in joy and start celebrating like I won the lotto....

Yes. Technician was at my house and confirmed poor coverage. He updated my support number and Cellc retentions offered to cancel all my contracts without any penalty. Not what I wanted but I just let the last contract run its 2 months then I will cancel it.

Cellc does not want to install a booster or anything so yeah pretty much a dead end.
 
I had same issue, best to cancel it now.
Send an email as well as calling the retention department.
Keep a record of the reference numbers.
If you have a discounted contract, they may not give you the discount in the last month, resulting in you being billed higher than usual.
If you pay via debit order, ensure you have sufficient funds to cover the increased bill.
If you pay via cash and you don't pay the full amount and you have other contracts, all your lines will be suspended.
 
Cell C has been using my day time data for my night time data.
I don’t understand how I’m able to use so much data but my night time data is not touched.. And I don’t sleep at night.. I sleep during the day.. Tje reason ... it’s to dangerous.. I stay on a farm and I’m scared .. so I’m always online after 12 at night.. Below you will see I took a screenshot after 12 and then after 6.
All they said when they did a case for me yesterday and it was resolved.. they said I should restart my phone at night before night time begins..! And I did..
I don’t know what I’m going to do.. I’m fighting this vaccine thing and human trafficking .. and now my data stands at 2 Gb.. I don’t think it will last.. It will be finished by 3 o’clock. Because I’m an admin on creating awareness .. I help allot of people every day.. And I don’t get paid for it..
Sorry for complaining.. What can I do..
I might be overreacting..

Thank you
♥️
