Telkom Mobile apologise with 2GB TM data :)

[RyanPCMR]

Today, I received an unexpected message from TM saying that my account has been loaded with 2GB free Telkom Mobile data, that will expire in 5 days time. An hour later a follow-up sms states that they are aware that I may have been impacted by a technical problem on Telkom's mobile network yesterday and that they apologise for any inconvenience caused. It again states about the free 2GB Telkom Mobile data bundle allocated to my number.

Sorry, but I have to just report on this good service received from a company in SA. Thank you, Telkom Mobile! It was an unexpected and very welcome surprise for me. Keep up the good work!

When this happened to MTN they basically told their customers to stuff off.

Very nice gesture from Telkom.

If give them 2GB of data will they come fix the congested tower here in Douglasdale?

 

[MattCentralOffical]

Better than MTN!

Nothing on my side, maybe it is still coming.

Don't be selective Telkom, I also want.

Don't be selective Telkom, I also want.

Me too. Was the outage confined to specific areas only?

Got the 2GB of data on all 4 of my Telkom simcards....

First SMS saying the 2GB has been loaded and second saying the apologize for the inconvenience cause by the downtime....

Pretty cool. I wasn't even affected...

I didn't receive any free goodies from Telkom Mobile even though I am a loyal customer of theirs, time to jump ship. They make loads of money from me

Nothing over here, but I didn't have any down time. Great move by Telkom Mobile.

I got 1Gb. But didn't notice any downtime

I had down time twice this week and got 2gig data. 1gig and 1gig, I thought some random stranger gave me the first 1gig cause it just showed "your account has been loaded with 1gig data" and then this morning I got another 1gig with a better sms, the down time wasn't mentioned though.

 

[Lord Flacko]

I got 1 GB two days ago. Instead of being grateful let me complain and say why couldn't I get 2GB's haha. Jokes, Telkom Mobile is awesome.

I'm a bit conflicted. I didn't experience a down time and got 1GB free. Nice. Bad thing know that I test it I see that my usage go off my standard monthly bundle. Seeing that it is still early in the month I have a lot of data left off my bundle so would not be able to utilize this extra 1GB before expiry on the 11th. Also almost started watching YouTube as I'm not on my WiFi today so would have burned my data bundle and realised that to late and then would have no data after the 11th.... So be warned.

All these gigs makes me giggle
