Hi everyone.

I am looking for the iPhone 5 contract at cellc, but i want to know long will i have to wait when i walk in the stoor. Sign a few forms, give them the sim fee thing and then do i get it immediate or do i have to wait like weeks?

I am going for a new contract on my name and coming from vodacom.

Thanks

I 've been planning to get the same contract, my existing contract is from cells though. I think that should count for something, it will probably take a little over a week I suppose, good luck

A recent customer survey found that iphone buyers are happier than S4 buyers.

Normally can be done same day. When I took out my cell c contract they processed everything while we waited.

Not sure if you in a hurry, but rumor has it that apple will be announcing the new iPhone early next month. Will probably take another month to hit our shores, but that's if you want to wait

I have the iPhone 5 and love it to bits - best phone I have ever owned

Rather wait forsure, if you must get an iphone.

HTC One or Note II otherwise.
Done excessive research over the last few months and made my purchase.

My work colleague has an iPhone 5 and he admits that the Samsung Galaxy S4 is a better phone. And this is coming from a guy that has been using iPhones for a good couple of years now.

Galaxy S4 rocks.. Use it and you will see why

I am leaving soon to Namibia and want a new phone this weekend. I am not keen to wait till I am back. Hopefully I have to wait only 1 hour.

As for the dispute between Samsung and Apple.

Samsung for me is like a "plakkerskamp". Only fixing and "trying" to make better where they can.(please note the "trying")
Where Apple is like the Opera house in Australia. A perfection by engineers.

Glad to hear you feel that way.

There needs to be a flock happy to settle for second best while believing their product is superior, for the good of the balance in the phone industry. :D

084145

Over the phone application. Got my brand new sealed iphone 5 black and nano sim the next day. Phoned 084145 again and did the sim swap in 2 hours it was done.

Was only asked for copy of my id when RAM couries came and delivered....

I find if 084145 has stock of the phone its damn fast and you have your phone. Cons is that if they don't have stock it takes about 7 days but they tell you before hand. Ohhh and also you can't choose colours. You can ask for a colour but its not guaranteed that you will get that colour.

With cellc store. They charge you for sim/connection aswell as contract fee or something. I try and stay away from the cellc stores cause those fees are really annoying and quite expensive.

I walked into the Clearwater Cell C store, applied, signed, walked out an hour later with the handset
