Customers purchasing the existing 75MB Internet bundle for R49 will get an additional 25MB of data for free, increasing the size of the current data bundle to 100MB at the current price of R49.

As lousy as Voda is but they sell 100MB for R49 on no promotional package...God is watching you MTN, what you doing is not right :(
 
Whoever does the CellC adverts... if you're reading this, here's a suggestion:
"What's cheaper than Mahaala? ... why CellC of course!"
 
MTN and Vodacom appear to be competing in the "most pointless promotion of the year competition"
 
I was pleasantly surprised (for a change) when I loaded a R49 for 75MB bundle last night.

It being Thursday I was thinking it is part of the Mahala Thursday promo so I thought nothing of it thinking it was going to be gone by this morning. I still have 95MB. Good.

I am stuck with MTN because their coverage is great "everywhere I go" and it is the only network that provides me true 3G in my place. Gaming on my 3G modem is really good but R149/mth for 2GB and a R0.29/MB OoB is now starting to look very pricey. My calculation now is that I need 6GB/mth. I buy the 8ta R266 for 2GB to supplement my data needs but that too is still not enough.

My only options are 8ta (on roaming only) and MTN. So, while this mahala promo is not the best (Cell C have 15c/MB for every bundle) this promo is certainly helping. I am selling my place, part of the reason being that the network coverages are poor. When I move (definately to a place where coverage is good - THIS IS A PRIORITY) I will be changing from MTN at my first opportunity.

If MTN don't get their game right I will leave when I get better coverage from other mobile ISPs.

8ta, Vodacom, Cell C. Get your coverage right.
 
Why insult us by throwing us a few stale crumbs MTN ?

Something beyond dramatic will need to happen at MTN to stop me from porting next year.
 
@rpm: Isn't it time to award a weekly prize for the mos ridiculous/insulting "promotion"?

Maybe you should find out the 'early cancellation' penalty and size it up against the money you'll save on CellC for that period of time... might actually work out cheaper to port now!
You know what's also funny?... this promo is so ridiculous that nobody has even bothered to mention OOB today!
