What is this?

[Randux]

I need clarity on this. It appears under the ussd string *123#.Sometimes these offers disappear for other users it doesn't appear at all.

I think that's the Wi-fi bundles.

 

[Randux]

Nope it's anytime all network normal data. I bought the 500MB bundle.

I think that's the Wi-fi bundles.

I get this message on my other Telkom Mobile sim.

 

[Ninja'd]

For real?

This'll come in handy since it's 2 days to payday and I just ran out of my bundle.

I tried it and I get the error he posted above. Seems to be available to certain people only.

I think it looks at your usage and then sometimes give you specials specific to you.

This could be it.

I am on Sim Sonke, maybe the guys that get error are using the Telkom More Tariff...

My sim that got the error is on sim sonke.

I also got a SMS but I got these offers....

My other sim got:

1. 25MB Data @ R1.50 for 1 day
2. 50MB Data @ R3.00 for 2 days
3. 30 Telkom Mins @ R2.00 for 1 day

Tried out the 100mb and works fine. Will come in real handy at the end of the month.

How long is this promo on for?

 

[Spotja]

Used the 500MB to watch pron on my phone. Nice one Telkom

 

[DA-LION-619]

This is awesome!

All loyal customers should be able to partipate in this promotion. It's totally unfair to be honest with you. I have been loyal Telkom/8ta/mobile subscriber the day you folks opened for business...

How long is this promotion running for? Will random prepaid subscribers be Smsed every week or not.

Telkom Minutes does that include landline or sstrictly Mobile. *confusion*

I agree, I think all loyal TM clients are now angry not to also be part of this promo.

When I chose the Telkom minutes, it sms'd me back to say I can use it to both Telkom landlines and Telkom mobile numbers.

Now I have 2x Sim Sonke sim cards, so both are voice type prepaid sims.
Only 1 sim received this promotional SMS, or MMS I think. It is the 1 sim, that I use as my main #, so I think it is fair to say, they choose at least people who use it on a regular basis. The sim that is only turned on, but not used, didn't get it. So to me, that is fair at least, although I see you are upset and it looks like you use it as your main sim.
