Right... i somehow managed to get registered online... and received an email from Telecom saying thanks for registering etc etc.... and advising that i will be getting a sms message from them with the voucher code.... with in an hour... well an hour has well and truly past... and NO SMS message..... so i guess its still a FAIL!!!!!
i like everything about XT to date and am glad that i have made the move... but things do take time for them to get it sorted... wonder if it will ever get sent.... hmmmmm

hey guys... just an update...
i also had to call telecom in person to get them to recognise my number and then for me to register.. but the text message of the voucher never came... and so called again for them to upload it manually...
but it all worked out at the end :)

apart from few phone calls to telecom... the experience of the network has been great!

I was finally able to register my prepaid SIM online just a while ago, and I was TXTed the $10 reload voucher code almost immediately thereafter.

Just a heads up for whoever wants to register their prepaid SIM online without the hassle of having to call up.

Doesn't work. Bought the SIM last week and definitely sent txts and surfed online a little with it.

Still unable to register after 6 days and too da*m busy to fart about dialling 0800 whatever.

FAIL!

So far not really impressed by Telecom and the XT launch.
