Cell C LTE data packages - Don't bother.
Buy Cell C cheap TLE data packages which carry over to the next month but can't use any of the data because the download speed is 1.6 M/Sec. Why bother. Email them and get no response either.

Thank you for reaching out to us,
Does your area have full LTE coverage and are you using the SIM in an LTE router?

18 Oct 2021, 10:00My address is Orange Drive, Three Rivers, Vereeniging. When I first got the SIM & router it worked fine and then steadily got worse - Sometimes no signal at all. Friends in the area have also commented on it. Yes I am using the SIM in an LTE router. Behaves the same if I use the SIM in a Tablet/Phone. All the devices perform perfectly with my Vodacom SIM.

18 Oct 2021, 11:55Did that. Download speed is now 0.7 Mbps, upload is 5.9 Mbps. Last week on old setting was getting 16-17 Mbps download. I suspect something has happened at the tower/s the last couple of days.
