Introduction

Moving to a city as big as London can be a daunting experience. Finding your feet can take weeks, sometimes even months. But you don’t have to do it on your own - there is an easier way.

Egoli’s tailor-made Jumpstart package is designed to get you up and running in no time at all.

Egoli has been helping South Africans get set up in London for several years now and our company is dedicated to making sure working holidaymakers coming to the UK find the transition an easy one. 

We will tell you everything you need to know, as soon as you arrive, so all you need to do is get out there and start enjoying yourself!

Sign up for our Jumpstart package with your agent and let us help you find your place of gold in London. If you don’t have an agent, please contact us for an EGOLI APPROVED AGENT in your area.

Egoli Group is based in the UK with offices in London. Our services are offered through South African travel agencies and because we are based in the UK we are within easy reach to assist you when you need us.

JUMPSTART PACKAGE - For R390.00 you get all of this:

• UK cell phone starter pack (pay as you go) on the day of arrival in the UK so that you can get connected immediately
• UK cell phone contract - fast tracked application. It is notoriously difficult for new arrivals in the UK to arrange a cell phone contract. Egoli has made special arrangements with our service provider that allows us to open cell phone contracts for our clients as soon as their bank accounts are opened. As an example, on a 12 month contract you receive 500 free cross-network, anytime minutes and 100 text messages for only £30 per month as well as a free phone!
• UK bank account – this is one of the most difficult things to set-up when you first arrive in the UK. Egoli clients get special treatment at Lloyds TSB.
• International telephone card – with £5.00 pre-loaded airtime. You will need this to make cheap phone calls to S.A. or any other country. You can use it from any landline or cell phone (with free contract minutes) and your call gets directed through a switch that will charge the call to your pre-paid card and not the phone you are calling from. For £5.00 you can call a S.A. landline for up to 60 min
• London Orientation – This is an information session where we give you the basic knowledge and need-to-know information that you only learn by experience. We also cover all the basics such as health care and taxes. You also get a printed version of the orientation information with lists of all the important and useful numbers and websites, so you can refer to it whenever necessary.
• Free welcome gift – this will vary from time to time. It can be anything from a lunch voucher to free drink at a pub.

We also offer additional services that will make your transition to the UK even easier and more enjoyable. These services are optional extras and can be booked in addition to the Jumpstart package. Please note that these services are not sold separately to the Jumpstart package.
