MTN Black Friday Discussions

Sent an Email to Jacqui
Got a reply back from another agent of behalf of Jacqui who will be handling the matter.

I'm not sure why mtn is not coming clean about this matter publicly. Will save everybody including their call centre the headache of dealing with clients.

jacqui should check this thread out
 
I got a "Made for me Small" SIM only offer - 1GB, 100mins, 100sms, anytime 20GB reoccurring for R249 p/m
 
yeah the thing is we got the data so we should be liable
Doesn't work that way, otherwise they could load whatever they want any month and charge us. At worst it should of loaded 50 + 50 for me and charged R999 because that's the contract without the black friday promotions.

Wait what? I was offered 300 + 300 for R499.
These guys literally make s hit up as they go along!!

I had a 30 minute conversation with one of their sales consultants this morning. I recorded the entire call. Would love to post it here so you could hear just how contrived their entire business model is!! Absolute nightmare!! Took the sales consultant 6 minute to work out how much data could be shared on the package he was offering.

Told him if it's so confusing for him, how's the customer meant to know head from tail!!

Anyway, got another call from a sales rep referred via Jacqui's office who made additional upgrade options available...

The following offers were punted:
1.) R99 - 21gb's anytime data, 50 minutes, 50 smses
2.) R199 - 51gb anytime data, 50 minutes, 50 smses
3.) R499 - 600gb of which 100gb is night owl, 500gb is anytime of which 100gb is shareable via data share...
4.) R199 - 15.5gb anytime data, 100 minutes product code: 2020991 CT 00004 BF
5.) R199 - 80gb anytime data of which 40gb is shareable and 80gb night owl data Product Code: 2020991 CT 00014 BF
6.) R299 - 150gb anytime data of which 75gb is shareable, 150gb night owl of which 75gb is shareable Product Code: 2020991 CT 00015 BF

All of the above are sim only and can be cancelled with 2 month penalty. I've included product code where one was provided...

Promotional data expires after 30 days and is not shareable.

The minutes/data combos are useless compared to 2018 let alone 2016.
