500 GB

Some of the movies I downloaded at fmovies.to and gomovies.com the quality is not good.

I have to re download them again.
 
Anybody else got storage concerns? Kinda sucks having to settle for lesser quality in order to preserve HDD space.
Never Settle! Just delete what you don't need(there's always something), I'm sure you can find some useless files to delete. I've got around 100gb left which is the ceiling for me, so what I do now is download>> watch >>delete. I can get it back anytime without worrying about data usage.

Thanks to this deal I've managed to restructure my media files ,all my movies and Series are in 1080p now(+-3tb).
 
I get around 20 - 50mbit (depending on download source) with just my cell phone so I can do a decent amount in that 7 hours. Ended up blowing ~300gb in a matter of a few days on torrents and Steam. The last 3 weeks were just me adding a 5gb or 10gb torrent here and there and updating my big ass Steam games each night (Steam alone was just over 100gb). Got 20GB left now which apparently expires 00:00 tomorrow.

Problem is there is always something you can download but hard disk space really becomes an issue. :D
 
Telkom seems to drop the speeds to 3G if you on the 500 Gb deal.

December bonus nets u plenty hard drive space :)
 
I have the 20GB+20GB contract as well as the 500GB.

I scheduled some downloads last night and my contract data was used instead of the 500GB. All 20GB contract night data was used up and then it started using my daytime 20GB of which I now have only 3GB left for the whole month. Meanwhile there is 422GB left (I used some of it last month) of the night data which expires on 22/09/2017 which I am no longer going to use as it is taking away my contract data first.

Will not buy again. This is something that Vodacom would do. Did not expect this mess up from Telkom.

But it's the same data? Midnight data, all of it?

I have 3 different data types on the same sim:

- 20GB contract night data
- 20GB contract anytime/daytime data
- 500GB prepaid night data

What I expected to happen was my 20GB contract night data get used up and then it switch to using the 500GB prepaid night data. Instead it switched to the 20GB anytime/daytime data which was almost fully depleted. The reason I have 3GB daytime data left is because of the scheduler which stopped the downloads at 7:00am. I estimate roughly 30GB was downloaded last night, none of which came from the 500GB bundle.


This also happened last month when I bought the 500GB bundle on 22/08/2017. However back then I thought the system was just set up to use data which was expiring first which was my contract data. So I didn't set up any downloads again until last night.
