I took a new contract out with mtn on the 5th of march. HTC Desire HD on Topup 200.
Got the phone on monday the 7th, waited 2 days for my sim to be activated after going to almost every mtn in Bfn, So now i could finally use the phone - until i realised the power button was pretty messed up.
So i took it back to get a replacement because it was still under the 7 day gaurantee thing. That was on the 9th of march. They told me it would take a maximum of 7 days to get the new phone, as you might have guessed i still don't have the phone almost 2 weeks later and no matter who i ask no one can tell me when my replacement is going to arrive.
In the mean time im sitting with a sim card i purchased 500meg of data on that will expire before i can use it not to mention im paying for a phone and time i don't have.
Anyone have any ideas on what i should do? cancel the contract? its getting really fustrating now.
On another note - can i use the R200 from the Mtn topup 200 to purchase data, because i was told i would have to purchase data seperately and now im probably paying an extra R600 over the 24 months period on this contract =/. I would have just taken out a bigger contract then.
