MTN Black Friday Discussions

Went back to the MTN shop today and there was some issue but the guy that helped seemed to think he could sort it out, just need to wait up to 48hrs. The Call centre had said I needed to go in to a store and request a USD manual activation for the existing dual call application, store guy seemed to know what to do.

Any luck with your Dual Call?
 
My data sim took 2 weeks to get sorted out. Don't get your hopes up when they tell you 2 to 48 hours. Just wait it out as frustrating as that is

Are you on the 149 or 199 package?
I was just told by the MTN store that dual SIM is not allowed on this package.
 
this is why the deal makes sense for MTN... out of the 1000's that took up this deal how many will actually get through even 25gb in a month...balances out in the end.
At R150 per month even if you use just 10gb it's still worth it.
 
R149 package
That store doesnt know whats going on then.

Yeah - its actually sad, cause I went to the same store on Sunday and was given the sim and told to wait 2 days.
I go back to the store after 2 days and then told its not offered on this contract.

Will keep waiting ...

Easy to slaughter 50gb watching 1080 video and LTE speeds means hassle free unbuffered full HD streaming, bring it on.
 
I removed my SIM card last night. Now iMessage and FaceTime is not activating.
 
Fixed it! This is what I did, I purchased R 5 airtime. I reactivated iMessage/FaceTime. I waited for 10 min and it activated.

It used about R 1.50 of the airtime to activate iMessage. Hope this helps to whoever has any issues with iMessage/FaceTime

Why would that work, the prepaid airtime purchase can be used for int'l Sms?
 
I thought the Cell C giga20 for R99 was a sweet deal. But this is on another level. Just awesome
