The same company offers another plan, unlimited voice call/sms/mms + 20Go of 4G Internet for 20Ђ per month (21 USD), or 16Ђ (16.8 USD) if you already have the "Freebox" at home. As information, this Freebox costs 40Ђ per month (42 USD) and offers you unlimited high debit Internet access, a TV box which gives you +150 channels included in your plan, and unlimited phone calls from your home phone to all mobiles and home phones in nearly 200 countries. I don't use WhatsApp but if it's cheaper than the 2Ђ plan on a whole month, then I got scammed for now a long time.

Well according to a website I was just on, whatsapp uses 0.01MB (data) for each 100 chars.I can buy15MB for 9 zar ( 0,69 euro ) meaning that if I did my calculations right, you can send 150000 chars for 0,69 euro.

And if you are with one of our 'sim card providers' whatsapp is free, It does not use data, all you need is to have a positive airtime balance on your phone, but it does not use the airtime neither.
