So at my work there is like 1 bar signal so it often switches to MTN and then back to 8ta depending on the place I am in the workshop.

I got a 2GB TM bundle but no all networks bundle cause 29c out of bundle on all networks is cheaper than the 100mb bundle downwards and the amount of data I use is like less so buying a big all networks bundle is of no use.

Now the problem I get a sms EVERY time the phone roams meaning I get like 15 a day sometimes. Its very annoying. I did apply the setting on onnet.8ta.com to ALWAYS go out of bundle with no redirect but I'm still getting the sms.

Yeah its decent but if you get it 15 times a day then its very annoying. I also got free airtime cause I'm using sim sonke so the 29c per mb deducting from that free airtime is like a super win but these sms is bugging me :(

I bought a all net bundle before then abviouslly the sms will stop. Why pay more just to stop the sms.

If you have an android just mark it as spam. As long as it's coming from the same number it's all good.

Well I'm using it on my Blackberry Q10 so yeah not sure if it has a block option but blocking is not really the solution since the sms comes from 2781188 which means I will not be able to get the sms with my data balance aswell.

Damn. But I think you still get the messages but it does alert you and you just go to spam messages and they are all there.

But... You don't have an android. Wonder if BB has a similar setting?

or if no blocking is possible, maybe the OP can assign a silent tone to the number? messages will still happen, but no beeping.
