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

the unlimited voice minutes are not really unlimited they get finished and you have to request for reloading but that also does not work all the time. first they will tell you about bottomless coffee analogy and if it doesn't work terms and conditions. But melon is not clear in the beginning. actually my rating is zero not even 1 is good enough another south African scam.

App is good. Communication is fast, but the downside is, after the 28th of the month, all of a sudden your data will go down to zero quickly and or either your unlimited calls will be down to zero. I got a message on the 28th my data is on 50mb, upon checking I had 4,25gigs. I waited a little while about half hour and checked all of a sudden down to zero. lucky I took screen shots as this is happening on a monthly basis. It's 10 days later, everyday they can't give mea straight answer.

very happy with the service no network problem it's there whenever you want to use it keep up the good work
