MTN Black Friday Discussions

[d7e7r7]

Did you have a 2018 BF contract?

No.

 

[Azbubu]

No.

Did you have ANY MTN contract at all?

 

[RanzB]

I didn't have a BF 2016 contract and I qualified...

Neither did I. It was just a normal month to month that carried over from an expired contract.

I’m now convinced that you & @falcon786 are Jedis & used the Jedi mind trick on these unsuspecting MTN retentions consultants. I tried everything to get the deal you got but it didn’t work.

What deal didn't you get? R199 50GB and 600minutes?

Well that's good news, means if the consultant is willing the system will allow it

Yes

Yeah I asked for that deal and was told it’s only 50mins/50gb/50sms and those who got the 500 promo mins were based on other factors.

 

[bar1]

Did anyone get the R199 Pre paid deal?

 

[Azimuth]

Renewed my 2016 / 2018 BF data SIM. Was 60GB + 60GB @ R299, now 100GB anytime with datashare @ R299pm. I did request the 150GB + 150GB but the agent disputed its validity even with the product code provided in some of the posts. Given that my contract ends *today* I wasn’t taking any chances.

Migrated this evening from “My MyChoice 30GB” (60GB + 60GB) to “Made for Business Data + Pro 100GB”.

Still seeing the leftover data from my old deal as well.

New package obviously pro-rated for November month.

What is the difference between a home and business contract.

What is the difference between a home and business contract.

No idea. In 2016 I got a company discount and somehow ended up on business.

I got told exactly the same. Managed to negotiate to 300 mins though despite the lady saying they wouldn't go over 50.

Pretty chuffed took it over 24 months though.

Very strange. They didn't mention any extra requirements when I asked for that deal. Hopefully more deals popup on Cyber Monday.

 

[Twar]

So a day later, can you confirm if your got this? Seems like an excellent deal for my wife. Her MTN contract just switched to month-to-month and the minutes it comes with is just what she needs

It does not seem that way no, I will have to call them and ask on Monday

What is the difference between a home and business contract.

Personal or Business - it's self explanatory, taking a contract as an individual vs in the name of a company.

Can you share all the 50gb?

Mine have always been in my name but I was part of a corporate program. For BF2016, I got discount for a handset.

Fundamentally, there must be other differences between home and business though eg. I wonder what the “data+ pro” is all about?

Interesting...

It looks like its just the product's name:

Out of curiosity, what do you have now with them, that makes them ineligible.

I have a made for me package S with phone , but that has been running on month to month since July. Hoping when they call me, that I do qualify?M

 

[Alltorc]
