Telkom announces new data plans

Tech news 29 October 2020

Telkom has announced the launch of new shared data plans with their FreeMe Share Plans.

According to the operator, the new plans will allow multiple SIMs to share a single data plan and come as 24-month post-paid contracts. These contracts include SIM-only or multiple-device combo options.

“While some of the working force has headed back to work on South African’s Level 1 national lockdown, many families and businesses alike have opted to either educate their children and/or work from home. This has meant equipping homes with education and work tools, especially data, in order to transition successfully,” says Gugu Mthembu, Executive of Brand and Product Segments at Telkom.

“We understand that circumstances are not the same and it was very important for us to tier the plans carefully depending on both the customer’s needs and affordability.”

According to Telkom, up to 10 SIM cards can share data, voice minutes, and SMS bundles with these contracts.

Here is the pricing for the new plan:

As part of its summer campaign, Telkom noted that any customers who buy the FreeMe Share 36GB and FreeMe Share 58GB deals will get 10GB of 3 months of additional data.
