MTN Black Friday Discussions

The promotional data on the contracts is non-shareable, so if you are getting the 60 + 60 deal, 40 + 40 is promo data, the original contract is only 20 + 20 which is shareable.
He told me that all of the data is promo data.
 
Ok finally done, spoke to Thato Hadebe, an absolute gem of an agent, very patient and although she was unaware of some of the codes, when i gave them to her she made note of them and thanked me for the info that i gave her, however there are some deals that were quoted earlier that seemed to have changed based on the info that was posted earlier(in bold below). she also explained to me that although its a 36mt contract i could upgrade in 24mts if i wished to, there is no penalty just an extra months subs as cancellation.

Thanks for this. How did you contact Thato? DO you have an email?
I tried calling 083135... the person who answered said they will get somebody to call me back. Still waiting.
 
anybody know what the full product code is for:
R149 - 15.5GB Anytime Data, 550 Min, 500MB Night Data, 50 SMS's * 36.. Product Code: CT00019BF

When I call they keep telling me the code is too short and incomplete.

Add 2020991 to the beginning
 
So Bf has arrived, did any new deals get released for us BF OG's?

Any new data deals better than the R299 150+150 and R499 500+500
 
Has anyone managed to sign up for the 500+500 GB in store?

I have been asking for MTN to call me for more than a week now and have not heard anything.

I unfortunately can't call them and sit on hold for ages as I run an ecommerce store, so my line is crazy today.

Last resort will be to go into a store tomorrow.
 
Have the billing issues sorted for everyone? I see mine on the previous 60 + 60 it still says R1400 due
 
ok sorted. The second consultant knew exactly what i wanted. I'm so confused as to why some of the mtn consultants are so clueless. The one I got now was great and sorted it out in no time.
The product they selling is incredibly contrived and obfuscated.... unbelievable how our mobile data products are packaged and marketed in SA. Is it like this internationally I wonder? Somehow doubt it...
 
Ok so the "R499 - 500GB Anytime Data, 100GB is shareable, 100GB Night Data Product Code: CT00024BF" I've been told is a 400gb anytime +100gb promo anytime + 400gb night + 100 promo night... well that's what the lady told me I was going to get.

How did you manage to get that?
And did you have an existing contract?
 
Finally got through and got the R99 package.

Does anyone know if one can take advantage of these deals as a new subscription?

I was told you cant. They said you need an existing contract which is more than 6 months old

Phone retentions and take one of the deals. I've been told that if I dit not, I would have been billed R2k. You can always cancel later with 1 Month penelty as I understand it.
 
Just been told that none of the data is shareable an none of the data carries over on any of the bf deals.
Different consultant seemed more knowledgeable than the previous one. The new consultant told me that 50 of the 150gb is shareable. The sharable 50 GB will be used first. Data carries over up to 60 days.
 
How did you manage to get that?
And did you have an existing contract?
Have an existing 50Gb contract, did an early upgrade... well if it all goes through the lady is still sorting it out
 
Not true. I upgraded to the 500+500 and I'm sharing the 400GB portion to 3 other SIMs

The non promo data should rollover too as it did with my previous contact (60+60)
Are you sure the datashare is working though? Like when you go to datashare on your app, it says you're sharing 400gb? Datashare is just not working for me.
