Telkom’s mobile arm, 8ta, has introduced a new BlackBerry Internet
Service (BIS) package that costs half of what it did previously.
Fourth mobile operator 8ta
has launched a pared down version of the popular fixed-rate BlackBerry
Internet Service (BIS) that costs R30/month. The offering only allows
users to pair one e-mail account with their device, as opposed to the
usual 10, but otherwise offers all of the standard functionality of the
BIS service.
Consumers moving to the new package can link their device to a
company e-mail address or any online e-mail service such as Gmail, Yahoo
Mail or 8ta’s own 8tamail. The existing BIS offering — which costs
R59/month — will still be available to those that wish to use multiple
mail accounts.
The new rate is permanent and not part of a promotion.
The new package includes standard BIS features such as BlackBerry’s
instant-messaging service BBM, Internet browsing, the ability to browse
and post to social media services, and access to BlackBerry App World.
The package is available to both prepaid and post-paid 8ta customers.
Prepaid customers can either purchase it manually once a month using
their airtime balance, or can set up a recurring monthly deduction.
Free BIS for 8ta BlackBerry® prepaid users
- FREE 1 month BlackBerry BIS worth R59.00
- FREE 500 MB YouTube Streaming worth R120.00
