The service enables new customers to pay R250 which buys line installation, one year’s rental (R120.00), R10 airtime and a telephone instrument. <\/p>\n
“Our PrepaidFone Waya-Waya service forms part of the Company’s numerous innovative efforts to bring our services to the doorstep of our customers by accelerating access and increasing our value proposition to the customer,” says Erna Korff, Acting Managing Executive for Retail Marketing.<\/p>\n
Customers will pay a 50c surcharge on all outgoing calls in addition to the current PrepaidFone call rates. <\/p>\n
PrepaidFone call rates are as follows: 46 cents per minute (including VAT) during local standard time, 21cents per minute (including VAT) for local callmore time, with a 50cents (including VAT) surcharge levied on all outgoing calls.<\/p>\n
Telkom’s pre-existing customers are also allowed to migrate to PrepaidFone Waya Waya if they have a credit balance of more than R120 on their account or if they pay R120 to move to the Waya Waya service. This amount serves as the PrepaidFone Waya Waya rental for one year.<\/p>\n
The PrepaidFone Waya service does not include monthly or weekly rental deductions for a year which means that when customers recharge to make calls, all the money is available for this purpose. <\/p>\n
If customers do not have airtime for outgoing calls, they will still be able to receive incoming calls for the one-year duration that they have paid their rental.<\/p>\n
Korff says that PrepaidFone customers are now able to recharge their services either telephonically or online at no extra charge.<\/p>\n
