Telkom launches 2TB for R699 LTE deal

Can anyone confirm if this deal has no FUP? Can't seem to find the T&Cs of this new deal
 
Telkom LTE is reasonable in my area, 2 speedtests done today, 1 early when it's still quite and 1 around 15:00. Will do another at peak time tonight to see what's what.Screenshot_20220403-145945_Speedtest.jpgScreenshot_20220403-072007_Speedtest.jpg

Should be a decent fibre alternative if speads hold up in peak time.
Signed up recently for a LTE data deal which me and the wife share in our phones for "mobile" data. (Did get a secondary sim)

Do you need to be in 2300mhz coverage? Seen that their packages also work in 1800mhz. How will one be able to bypass this?

Doubt it haven't come across any Telkom packages be it contract or resold that limits which network bands you connect. With the only exception being the roaming networks of course.

If your device supports it you can lock onto the band(s) that are broadcasting in your area.
 
Now if they had a prepaid version of this I'd be interested. Heck even a 1TB version would do. But there's no way in hell I'm ever opening an account with Telkom again.
Yes this is the problem. If it was prepaid which I could extend I'd go for it. But month to month means you have to pay for it each month and there's going to be a lot of breakage.

Month to month is almost prepaid.

This has been the case for me also as of a few months ago. Like exactly after 1 hour it dies. Someone else also complained about Telkom going off after an hour here in cape town wonder if changes have been made somewhere. The only networks that stay up here now are voda/rain shared tower.
