Wellllllll......In Rustenburg the CellC still runs EDGE and they have promised that they should have the Woooosh running by end of this month. So I am holding my breath.

As I expected..............whoooosh still running EDGE and the email reply from CellC is as follows after asking the specific question.........."when will the wooosh be available in Rustenburg."

Cell phone companies are becoming as bad as trying to deal with government.

My gran just went whooosh. I still need to plug in the dongle and show her the ropes on how to connect, but after that, she's going to be all up in the interwebs.
The deal is absolutely amazing considering what vodacrap is offering (I pay R449 p/m for 2 GB... Oooooooh if I wasn't on contract). Heck it brings back actual meaning to the word deal. we used to remember deal as a bargain, good value and positive. it's turned into a bit of a mushy "take it or leave it" sort of soup you just have to swallow and smile about in recent years...

I hope you're going to help your gran first

Just some feedback.

After a post on Hello Peter, I got some response from CellC.

They stated that their service should be up by June 2011.

Quite a far cry from the original "mid Feb" but I must say....at least I got an answer !
The question still remains........................what happens to the 2 gig data per month that I cannot use ? ( If you don't use it, you lose it )

Unbelievable, having had no responce from Cell C I was also on Hello Peter. Just received a response from Cell C today. They did get my complaint and will look into it. Seems Hello Peter has some teeth

I also got stuff fixed through Hello Peter. It's just irritating that you need to go through something like that to get some decent service. Why can't these companies just get their service department's act together? The fact that they can at least answer your question, or (as in my case) fix the problem through HP means they know how to do it: My advise to them, fire all your service staff and tell them they can return after proving to them that they can actually answer customers' queries - then only hire back the best 10% of them.
