Home fiber
About home fiber →How do I know if TeleFiber reaches my home?
Use the coverage checker on the Home internet page or in the MyTele app. Type your area and we'll tell you if it's live, coming soon, or not covered yet. If it's not covered, leave your number and we'll text you when we arrive.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are connected within 48 hours of booking. The visit itself usually takes two to three hours. You can follow the technician live in the app.
Is installation really free?
Yes. Standard installation and the Wi‑Fi router are included with every home plan. If your building needs extra cabling, the technician will explain any cost before starting.
Is there a contract?
No. Plans are paid monthly and you can change speed or cancel any month from the app.
Can I change my speed later?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade in the app at any time. Upgrades apply straight away; downgrades apply from your next billing month.
What do I do if my internet stops working?
Restart your router first. If it's still down, open MyTele and tap Help to chat with us, or report the fault. We'll check your line remotely and send a technician if needed.
I'm moving house. Can I take TeleFiber with me?
Yes, if your new address is covered. Choose Move my fiber in the app and book a time for the technician at your new home.
Travel eSIM
About travel esim →What is an eSIM?
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of inserting a plastic card, you install a data plan from the MyTele app in a couple of minutes.
Will my phone work with an eSIM?
Most recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel phones support eSIM. Check the compatible phones list on the Travel eSIM page, or dial *#06# — if you see an EID number, your phone supports eSIM. Your phone must also be unlocked.
When should I install my eSIM?
Install it before you travel, while you're on Wi‑Fi at home. It stays inactive until you land, then switches on when it connects to a network in your destination.
Can I keep my Tanzanian number?
Yes. Your normal SIM stays in your phone, so you can still receive calls and SMS on your number. The eSIM is used for data only.
What happens if I run out of data?
Top up in the MyTele app at any time, from anywhere. You'll get a notification when you're close to your limit.
Can I get a refund if I don't travel?
If you haven't installed the eSIM, contact us in the app and we'll help. Once an eSIM has been installed, it can't be refunded.
Bill payments
About bill payments →Which bills can I pay with MyTele?
LUKU electricity, DStv, StarTimes, Azam TV, DAWASA water and your TeleFiber subscription. More billers are added regularly.
How quickly do I get my LUKU token?
Usually within seconds. The token appears in the app and is also sent to you by SMS.
My LUKU token didn't arrive. What should I do?
Open Payments in the app — every token is saved there. If it's not showing, tap Help on the payment and we'll resend it or refund you.
Can I pay for someone else's meter or decoder?
Yes. Enter their meter, smartcard or account number and save it with a name like 'Mum's LUKU' for next time.
Is there a fee to pay bills?
Any fee is shown clearly before you confirm the payment. You'll never be charged without seeing it first.
Can MyTele remind me before a bill is due?
Yes. Save a biller and turn on reminders. We'll notify you a few days before each due date.
Account & app
How do I sign up for MyTele?
Download the free app on iPhone or Android and sign up with your phone number. It takes about a minute.
Which payment methods can I use?
You can pay from your MyTele wallet, mobile money, or a bank card, depending on the service.
I forgot my PIN. How do I reset it?
Tap Forgot PIN on the sign-in screen and follow the steps. We'll verify it's you with a code sent by SMS.
Is my personal information safe?
