Unlimited* data for R99 per month

[NeonNinja]

Has anyone confirmed?

 

[backstreetboy]

Yes. Its actually 1.15GB [1GB + 150mb] All networks data for the full 24 months. The unlimited data is just a perk I think they using to get more people joining because mobile data can be expensive.

Thought so damn makes it even more tempting. Better thatn the Afrihost Zest T1 deal and even if it is a lower specced phone will still be better then that POS T1. Can always flog the phone aswell. See they go for about R500 on gumtree.

Then I would be right in guessing you tried WP8.1 and hated it

From your experience (I assume it is not much given this deal is newish) have you had that unlimited 3G data?

WP got a lot better since I last used it. Still wouldn't switch to it though.

"unlimited" is 10GB unthrottled, after that it goes to 128kbps...

That applies to WiFi only, no?

No it applies to "unlimited" Telkom mobile data as well.

Can you corroborate this?

The Completely Unlimited data benefit is only applicable on Telkom Mobile’s data network and is governed by a Fair Usage Policy (FUP) of 10GB per month. The speed will be reduced to 128kbps if you reach a data usage soft cap of 10GB before the end of the month. The speed will be reset to the normal speed at the beginning of each calendar month. Alternatively, you can purchase once off or recurring data bundles.

One can with certainty assume this promo will also be the same.

It says this on my portal:

Recurring Telkom Mobile Data - Fri Oct 31 2014 - 6956 MB (this was 10GB)
Recurring Telkom Mobile Data 128 kbps - Fri Oct 31 2014 - 9536743 MB

Basically 9tb data at 128 kbps = impossible to use up = unlimited *

Cool, what contract did you get?

The one with the Nokia 630 at R150 pm (smartplan 100).

Nice!!

It is an absolute bargain.

 

[Mk786]

nice catch!

Has anyone signed up on this deal?

 

[jman]

I reckon I'll go get this. Awesome deal even without the phone. And I think the sim only smart plan 100 has less data and is the same price. Will just use the phone as a spare

 

[Debeer165]

SIM only does not get the uncapped data. Just a small warning

The Galaxy Pocket Neo costs the same as the Sim only deal at R99 and you get the extra data.

 

[Debeer165]

Yes, just wanted to point it out specifically in case anyone misses it.

Just ordered mine online the pocket neo that is. Too good of a deal to pass up!

I did also order online and just waiting for them to confirm tomorrow and then the debit order needs to go through and then I would get my package if they have stock left that is....

We'll see today if they have stock. Otherwise, I think the next cheapest is the Nokia 630 or something at R150, which is still good considering all you get in this deal
