In addition, the rollout of Fibre to the Home has been slow and we wanted to provide a viable fixed mobile solution to customers who are not yet connected to Fibre or ADSL,\u201d said Dos Santos.<\/p>\n<p>While the LTE Power Plans are 24-month contracts, should a customer wish to cancel for any reason, only 30 days notice will be required.\u00a0 No cancellation fees will apply.<\/p>\n<p>Cell C said it is also adding a new promotional prepaid data product to its range of SmartData plans. The Giga200 comes in at R1599 once-off or under R8 per GB and will provide the customer with 200GB of anytime data on any of Cell C\u2019s data networks, valid for one year.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">More on Cell C<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/mobile\/121627\/cell-c-reveals-lte-advanced-network\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Cell C reveals LTE-Advanced network<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/broadband\/118985\/cell-c-launches-uncapped-fibre-to-the-home\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Cell C launches uncapped fibre-to-the-home<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Permalink to Cell C listing \u2018not far down the line\u2019: Blue Label\" href=\"http:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/telecommunications\/113978\/cell-c-listing-not-far-down-the-line-blue-label\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Cell C listing \u2018not far down the line\u2019: Blue Label<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cell C has launched five new promotional contract LTE packages targeted at the home, home office and small business environments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":99200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[25,42],"class_list":["post-138183","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mobile","tag-active","tag-cell-c"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138183"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":138197,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138183\/revisions\/138197"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99200"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138183"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/businesstech.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
