Melon Mobile ZA

About this app

Yup, we said it - the first-ever fully customisable mobile network in Mzansi – built to disrupt what all the other big companies are doing, in favour of more freedom, better month-to-month plans and a more affordable way to do mobile.

Say goodbye to rigid plans, long-term contracts and all those other things that lock you in, and hello to freedom with our innovative Melon App.

Why Melon Mobile?

· We’re 100% Digital: No paperwork, no stores, no frustration - we're 100% digital.
· You’re in control: Whether you want to build your own month-to-month Voice & Data plan (and change it any time) or choose one of our Unlimited Calls & Texts + Data plans.
· Mobile made by you: More control means a happier you. We let you decide how you want your mobile plan to work for you. Need more Data next month? Change your plan. Less Data? Change it again. You’re in charge here.
· Keep your number: Switch to Melon and keep your number. Porting takes a day, and it can be done from our App.
· We keep things simple: Sign-up is a breeze. Order a free SIM, complete Self-RICA, all on our App or Website, without having to visit a store.
· We don’t do contracts: You’re not locked into anything with us. Build a plan, choose a plan, change a plan – it’s all up to you.

Ratings and reviews

Excellent service and by far the best product on the market for someone who just needs the ability to make calls. Easy to use and very customer-centric. Every time I've contacted them, I received feedback almost in real-time through their WhatsApp platform. My family and friends marvel at how I'm able to call every time they ask, as unfortunately, most of our black families still use basic cell phones, not smartphones, and Melon now connects us. Thanks, Melon.

I am very happy with melon mobile! The service and support has been fantastic. The plans are well priced and I have had no issues with regard to connectivity-either with voice or data. I have been using melon mobile for 3 months now and the switch to melon was seamless and I have had no issues. I recommend melon mobile.

There is no repayment in the app if the payment didn't go through, and also you can't see which card is added. The whole app gives errors.
