Exactly!!! Why can't everything just be available as a bolt-on?! How easy would that make life. As techies we all know it's just code. So it CAN be done. Whether they CHOOSE to do it is another matter. This is why I think these promos are more about the subscriber numbers than the actual value they deliver to us. As always, there's always string attached.
:wtf:
No f***ing way! That might just the dumbest thing I have ever heard a network do.
Then again, call center agents are the worst source of info ever.
So either the agent if super-dof or CellC is. I pray it's the former!

I'm on prepaid with my smartphone. One would think that they'd be innovative on this front.
Data prices are good, but contract rates are better. Trust me though CellC, you'd have me buying Giga20 via USSD every month for life without the admin.

I think they have, I picked up a pricelist on Saturday and Vodacom pricing is exactly the same as Cell C new prices.

The more complicated things get, the more they can fsck you over. This has been the strategy of VC/MTN since they got used to their pillaging.
It's sad to see CellC slipping down the same slope.
RE my data & forfeit- I was assured by 2 or 3 agents as well as some shop assistants that this was the case (back in January). Things may have changed now, I'm not sure.

Contract only? What other hoops must you jump through?

Yip contract only, but i have to pay off the R12 000 device over 24 months as well so its a decent deal in the current marketplace.

Now this is data price SLASHING, yet the article headline just says data price cuts however when its Vodascum the article title will read DATA SLASHING but in reality it was just simply data price cuts.
No ways, I have a contract and a bolt-on bundle so I don't see why it wouldn't work the same for this. (straight up 100, which includes 100megs, + a R7.50 bundle (to get the 15c/mb OOB rates)
Dude, you already have supercharge (or whatever it's called) AND 15c/mb, what more do you need?
In fact, with supercharge you're probably paying closer to 7c/mb

I get 3G coverage on my Cell phone but not on my modem.
No show = no go.

Did you notice you were pretty far into the thread and the only one who picked this up?
Vodacom had these prices out a few weeks ago already. On both contract and TopUp.

The pricing is obviously not the same. OOB rate is different, meaning that pricing is potentially VERY different.
