MTN Black Friday Discussions

[airborne]

What has been the best big data only deals so far for legacy BF contracts?

Does anyone have any ideas on what they were?

 

[ebendl]

So if anybody wondered, it looks like this deal:

I got the 17GB / 525 for R149 this morning, on a 36 month contract with this code 2022106 CT 00005 RT

might actually just be a 15GB package. The base contract is an MTN Mega Gigs XS and then there's a 500mins anytime minute bundle and a 15Gb monthly anytime Promo bundle added.

Does anyone have the deal code for the R79 package?

Price	Data	Mins
R79 x24 months	12Gb	150 all net

 

[Mercury12]

Not sure what more there is to tell. I phoned, asked for upgrades department and requested an early upgrade.

Same, took about 10 minutes. They charged me R141 as an early upgrade fee.

I didn't have a deal code. I just called the retentions department said I'm due for and upgrade and asked what offers they had with data and minutes. I chose the 17gb and 525min for R179x24.

Ps. I called again this morning to check on the status of my upgrade. Had a 10min wait time. They busy.

 

[MickyP]

Yeah, its only for existing customers.

Does anyone know if existing customers includes month to month contacts. Someone could potentially take the R199p/m 50gb deal and then change.

Called 4 times holding for 15mins. Finally got through, took the R149 17gb and 525mins for 36months. While busy the system froze, apparently they are very busy and the system has been hanging the whole day. Luckily my details are already on the system so it could all be done on her side later on.

Agent wasn't able to find this deal. Offered me R79 x 36 months, 12gb data and 125 all net minutes. Deal ID : 2022106 CT 00003 RT. The 24 month option is R99 x 24 months, with the same data and minute allocation.

Thanks to all who tried to help, I succeeded when I phoned from an MTN phone on 135 and not from my Telkom phone with 083 135.

And I got the upgrade I wanted in the first place, which another agent told me does not exist.

Which upgrade did you take?

 

[Stokstert]

Which upgrade did you take?

R99 for 12GB 125 min, on Friday they told me I can't get that specific one as an early upgrade so that both my SIMS have the same expiry date.
