Thank you Vodacom

[bwana]

Every month my missus gets 120 free weekend/evening minutes on her Vodacom Blackberry contract which have been accumulating for months now because she rarely uses them but thanks to 8ta's generosity I can convert them to real free minutes on my PAYG account by calling my phone from hers and just let it sit there.

So thank you Vodacom for giving me free minutes I can actually use.

so confused right now.....

8TA gives me free minutes for every incoming call I get - one minute for every three iirc.

 

[R13...]

So you just phone answer and let it just count?

Yep.

I've just checked her account and there are nearly 400 free minutes accrued, 80 of which expire at the end of this month. Waste not, want not, right?

Vodacom gives you minutes that you don't need and 8ta rewards you with minutes that you can use.

Thanks Vodacom for the use of your useless airtime...

bwana that's brilliant. I'm in the same boat. I got my wife a vodacom contract (120 w/end minutes), which we never, ever use.
I'm gonna get a 8ta sim today and use those vodacom minutes !

This put a huge smile to my face

Just one question... How sure are you it's using up that useless airtime and not your contract airtime?

 

[Park@82]

I've just checked her account and there are nearly 400 free minutes accrued

So how many 8ta minutes does that equate to?

I'm sure.

More than enough.

O'Wise One... Can you convert the 8ta minutes to data?

 

[McGuywer]

Well done!

 

[Chunkyfeather]

hahahaha, wonder if they will ever plug this

I don't think so but wouldn't that be great.

hahahaha, wonder if they will ever plug this

Who? Vodacom or 8TA? Vodacom has to let us use the free minutes, right?

 

[MickeyD]

hahahaha, wonder if they will ever plug this

Who? It is perfectly legal.

Brilliant and in the meantime vodacrime are paying interconnect fees to 8ta
