Cell C offers unlimited calls to any network

South Africa’s third mobile operator Cell C has announced new prepaid and contract packages allowing subscribers to make unlimited calls to any network.

For ZAR999 (US$93), prepaid customers can buy the “Infinity Prepaid” package, offering unlimited calls, 1,000 SMSs and 1GB of data, while those on a 24-month contract can obtain “Infinity Select” for ZAR1,799 (US$167) per month, including unlimited calls, unlimited SMSs, 3GB of data and a handset.

Cell C has been at the centre of the row over the new mobile termination rates (MTRs), responding to MTN’s decision to launch a legal challenge to the new regulations, which provide for 50 per cent cuts to MTRs as well as asymmetry in pricing in favour of smaller operators, by launching an advertising campaign which tells consumers “not everyone” is pleased about the prospective cut to the cost of communications, and tells consumers to “change to the network who’s on your side”.

MTN is considering its legal options over the campaign.
