FAQs

If you’ve got questions, we’ve got answers.

How do I RICA from the comfort of my designer armchair?

1. Visit www.meandyoumobile.co.za

2. Login to your profile

3. Upload a copy of your ID document or passport and a proof of residence. Don’t have a copy of your ID handy? Take a selfie with your open ID or passport book and upload it instead.

How long is my contract?

You can choose the duration of your own contract. We don’t do contracts. No commitment, no mess, no fuss. Joining me&you mobile is on a month to month basis.

When can I change it?

You can upgrade or downgrade your contract at any time, except for the last day of the month. The changes you make will kick in at the beginning the of next month.

Can I keep my number and retain my precious social hub? (or so my gran doesn’t have to learn a new one)?

If you choose to port your number, check out these ins and outs:

  1. You can request to port during signup, or if you already have a me&you mobile SIM you can do so in the “Manage SIMs’’ area in your profile.
  2. Remember, we can’t start the porting process until you have activated your SIM. Once you have activated you will use the me&you mobile number allocated to you until the porting process has been completed.
  3. You will receive an SMS to confirm that your port request has been submitted
  4. After 48 hours, if your port has been unsuccessful we will give you a call to assist you. Unsuccessful porting can be due to a number of reasons stipulated by your current service provider, in which case you will be required to chat to them directly. Your current network may also notify you of the reason for your failed port.

Potential reasons for unsuccessful porting:

You are currently still in a contract.

You have not notified your current network of your move to me&you mobile.

You have provided the incorrect information for porting.

Your account with your current network is in arrears.

You owe your service provider money.

You have ported within the last 2 months.

To chat to your network about releasing your number, call one of the below numbers:

Vodacom082 111.

Cell C084 135.

MTN083 1808.

Virgin Mobile0741 000 123.

Telkom Mobile081 180

MRP Mobile0800 000 430

5. Successful ports will take a minimum of 48 hours to be processed. Once your port has been approved, your current number will cut off at 19:00 on that same evening and be active on your new SIM early the next morning - so basically you just need to sleep on it!

How will I be billed?

Billing takes place at the end of every month. Your first payment is a deposit equivalent to your monthly bundle and data amounts; as well as the delivery and connection fees. Thereafter you will be billed upfront for your subscription and in arrears for any additional usage (outside your bundle).

What is my credit limit?

In order to ensure that you are always connected, you can exceed your bundle to a maximum of double your monthly value bundle commitment. Should you reach this credit limit, you can easily apply for extra credit by logging into your profile at www.meandyoumobile.co.za.

Does my deal value roll over?

No, your deal values do not roll over to the following month. However, if you feel that your current choice of bundle isn’t suiting you then you can change it by logging into your profile at www.meandyoumobile.co.za.

Where can I check if I have coverage?

Simply type in your address in the search bar of the coverage map at www.meandyoumobile.co.za to see if you’re covered.

Do I need to RICA my SIM card?

Yes. You will be required to have a copy of your ID and proof of residence available when your SIM is delivered, and you (the account holder) must sign for it in person. You will also need to upload these RICA documents online when activating your FLTE Sim.

How long does it take to activate after delivery?

Your SIM card will activate within 30 minutes after inserting it into an approved router. In extreme cases it can take up to 72 hours, but this is very unlikely. Should you have any trouble connecting after 30 minutes, please reboot your router and try again.

Yes. All Fixed LTE packages can be upgraded or downgraded via your ‘Manage Area’ or by contacting customer care on 0861333110 or FREE from your me&you Mobile SIM. Note that package changes will only be effective on the 1st of the following month, regardless of when in the month the request is made or whether it is an upgrade or downgrade.

What happens If I sign up in the middle of the month?

All Fixed LTE packages are charged pro-rata. So, if you sign up halfway through the month you will pay half the monthly fee and receive half the data for the rest of the month.

Does unused data roll over at the end of the month?

In-bundle data (Meaning the data allocated as part of the monthly package) does not roll over and will be forfeited at the end of each calendar month should you not use it all. Top-Up data will roll over for an additional 30 days, meaning your top-Up data is valid for 60 days from date of purchase.

My SIM has been barred, what to do?

In the event that your MTN Fixed LTE has been barred, please contact customer care on 0861333110 or FREE from your me&you Mobile SIM to have one of our support agents assist you.

Is the IP private or public?

MTN Fixed LTE will only provide a public dynamic IP address for their Fixed LTE service.

Am I prioritized on the tower?

The MTN Fixed LTE coverage map is generated specifically based on capacity and network availability, so although you'll be sharing the network with mobile LTE subscribers within the Fixed LTE coverage area, you won't be impacted by congestion issues. Using your MTN approved router will ensure that it has the correct firmware configuration to allow MTN to make the most efficient use of spectrum which does not get allocated to mobile LTE subscribers.

What Speeds can I expect?

LTE is a wireless technology influenced by many factors and can therefore not guarantee a consistent speed. The device used plays an important role in us giving you a great speed experience, which is why we recommend using only an approved by MTN router, where you can experience speeds from 1Mbps to maximum speeds of up to 150Mbps*. Also, because of the nature of the wireless network, we cannot offer any SLA's on the service.

What is an eSIM

An eSIM is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan without having to use a physical SIM.

How do I RICA or activate an eSIM?

The eSIM follows the same rules and regulations as a physical SIM, so just follow the steps as you would with a Physical SIM and once activated, that’s where the ease comes in, you just capture a QR code and you’re done.

I’ve accidentally deleted my eSIM

Don’t worry. Just log into your My Account area and you will see all the details and the QR code stored. Just Point, Shoot and capture it again.

I Don’t have a Physical SIM, can I just use an eSIM

Great news – you don’t ever have to have a physical SIM again. If your phone allows, you can just register the eSIM from the start and off you go. An eSIM can do your Primary and you can even have a secondary eSIM.

I’ve lost my phone, can I activate my eSIM on another device?

You sure can, as long as that device has eSIM functionality. Check out if your new phone is eSIM enabled.

How do I get an eSIM?

Just sign up to one of our deals or build a deal, and choose eSIM as the prefers SIM choice. Easy Peasy.

What are the benefits of an eSIM?

You don’t have to worry about losing your SIM again. You don’t have to wait for delivery of a physical SIM. You can choose to have 2 different networks so when Eskom turn the lights off, you don’t have to stop browsing or working. You can turn it on and off with a click of a button. You can easily switch between different SIM cards and so have different Data plans as example as a secondary active SIM.

Can I Port to an eSIM?

That’s the best part you can and so you don’t even lose your number. It takes the same time as porting a physical card, so up to 48 hours.

Can I swap my me&you SIM for an eSIM?

YES – just contact our customer care team by chat, email on support@meandyoumobile.co.za, or dial 135 from your current me&you SIM or call in to 0860,133 3110 or log into your My Account area, and you can start the swap.
