Cell C has axed the price of its 66c per minute promotional prepaid offering, down to 50c per minute.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are exceptionally pleased to be able to continue to champion consumers\u2019 right to affordable communication with the introduction of our new 50c per minute call tariff,\u201d said Cell C CEO Jose Dos Santos.<\/p>\n
Like its 66c prepaid promotion, the new 50c per minute tariff will be billed per second.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis rate cut comes off the back of an overwhelming response we have had from customers to the original offering of 66c,\u201d Dos Santos said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is clear that many consumers continue to look for a no frills, simple and transparent voice offering with an exceptional rate. That\u2019s exactly what we are giving them with our new 50c call rate,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
This promotional offer will be available from 25 July 2014 to 30 September 2014 from all Cell C franchise stores and prepaid partners.<\/p>\n
Existing customers can migrate to this tariff by dialling *147# or calling 141 from their Cell C cellphone.<\/p>\n
Cell C said it would consider implementing this rate on a permanent basis once there is clarity regarding the Mobile Termination Rate Regulations.<\/p>\n
The network explained that the new 50c rate will have the same structure as the 66c product, which means SupaCharge benefits will not apply and an ad-hoc data rate of R2\/MB wil be charged.<\/p>\n
Additional bundles are available for customers looking to add data to this offering, Cell C said, which offers rates of 15c per Megabyte or lower.<\/p>\n
