    Yes, the original promo wasn't available on a topup basis. The promo's this year are.

    Not because it is old. But definitely yes, as you have Night-OWL data, it will go OOB. If you sign a new contract today with Night-OWL option it will be the same. Nothing has changed, as explained below:
    - contract with Night-OWL - OOB shark
    - contract data only without Nigh-OWL, no OOB unless you load airtime, then OOB as above

    Also worth mentioning are MTN's new deals. Some very similar to Vodacom's.
    See page 14/15 here

    The OOB costs on the MTN deal according to this add at 19c/MB are much lower than on Vodacom,
    I'm sure I saw it mentioned for MTN that their normal contract deals are also available on topup, can't find that add now.

    Vodacom asks R1 per MB OOB on contract and R2 per MB on topup
    Promotional MyGig 2 bundle, out-of-bundle rates
    Broadband Standard MyGig 2 Contract - R1 / MB including VAT
    Broadband Standard MyGig 2 Top Up Contract - R2 / MB including VAT
    But if you don't load extra airtime on topup your internet connection will just cutoff when the inclusive data is finished.

    Haha, it's difficult sometimes to word yourself such that they understand what you want.
    Just point them to this link
    Clearly states available on topup.

    Or have Ockie's (ocleroux's) number on standby - he will sort them out.
