Why would that work, the prepaid airtime purchase can be used for int'l Sms?

there is no prepaid airtime on that deal. Just minutes and sms

That is correct!

He's referring to my comment on purchasing R 5 airtime to activate iMessage.

I thought the Cell C giga20 for R99 was a sweet deal. But this is on another level. Just awesome

It is! And the 50GB is anytime. Not separated into day and night.

Have your bills been corrected? What are they at now?

 

[riscbroker]

Same billing date, total R248.61

Listed as follows:

My MTNChoice Talk+ S R 218.43
Total excluding VAT R 218.43
VAT AT 14% R 30.58
Total R 249.01

I still don't see where the R149 fits in....

Unless they've billed R149 +R100 for connection.

They bill 1 month in advance, possible the R100 for last month and R149 for next month?

No, it is your unbilled invoice before allowed discounts .


If you look in your MTN Active pages under My Account you will find your Contract details.
Under package description you find that a R100 discount is applicable + the 50Gb data allowance.
On the final bill you get the discount.
My details as an example is shown below.

I think what he's alluding to is that you pay pro-rata in arrears for the first month and then in advance for the second month.

Anyone's Dual sim activated yet? It's approx a week and still nothing

 

[airborne]

[moedawood]

I hope we see more from MTN

 

[air]

nice speeds!
Was at lower cable way station yesterday and got a ping of 21ms with 61Mb down and 13Mb up.
Yes, am burning a fair bit of data, but who cares

has anybody else experienced issues to connect to the MTN active / mycontract.mtn.co.za websitt ( via the sim cards)

i tried both phones/ sim cards, and they just refuse to connect. Even the MyMTN app is giving connectivity issues.

That first need to send you and invoice before they can debit your account.

So went to an MTN store, my secondary sim shows up on their systems. They don't understand why the sim is not showing despite the sim showing as active on their side. Weird! Anyone else's sim that is activated yet?
