Cell C recently launched its Connector deals, which offer voice minutes, SMS messages, and data.<\/p>\n

The packages range from Connector 1 \u2013 which has 1,000 minutes and SMS messages, and 3GB of data \u2013 up to Connector 5.<\/p>\n

They also include free access to Facebook, with a fair use limit of 1GB per month.<\/p>\n

Cell C’s new deals compete against Telkom’s FreeMe packages, which are sold as “data-first” offerings.<\/p>\n

FreeMe deals also include high allocations of data, along with free SMS and voice minutes, and value-added services.<\/p>\n

We took Cell C’s Connector plans and compared them against Telkom’s FreeMe offerings – as shown in the table below.<\/p>\n

Double Data<\/h3>\n

It must be noted that Connector plans taken out before 30 June will receive double the normal data allocation.<\/p>\n

The double data promotion will give you free data every month for the duration of your Connector contract.<\/p>\n
