How much Vodacom subscribers really pay for a call

blended call rate… smoke and mirrors. :rolleyes:
 
This blended call rate BS again..

That is not what people pay who have contracts and stuff....
 
So if the blended rate is 53c, why don't they ****ing just charge 53c?

There is no way I can figure the blended price for contracts to be 53c per minute. No possible way...

Prepaid I already explained.
 
I'm on Vodacom prepaid and I pay 79c per minute billed per second. There is no lower rate for prepaid users. I'm not sure what voice bundle the article is referring to for prepaid users.
 
BS. My price plan clearly states 79c. Don't give me that powerhour crap as I don't use it and most people that do only use it to talk gossip as they wouldn't have made the call otherwise. Also what about the smses that people get charged for but don't use because of these plans of yours? And what about the extras you have to pay like CLI just to be connected?

Cell C had the right idea back in the day, 99c for everything.... it was just simple and easy to work out, and affordable.

Amen!

I think I know how to make it come true

"this is how much Vodacom charges for calls, if they are made via whatsapp!!!"
 
"On the prepaid side, Vodacom is selling more bundles, which saw the effective price per minute for prepaid calls drop to 36c per minute."

What bundles are there for prepaid users? Are these voice bundles?

Maybe its that PowerHour (R5 to phone other VC numbers for and hour) deal, maybe they call that a bundle.

You have the Daily Free Calls - https://myvodacom.secure.vodacom.co.za/vodacom/shopping/plans/daily-free-calls - where you can spend R3.60 per hour on a call to another VC number (first 3 minutes charged at R1.20 each)...

I don't make 3 minute calls (or 4:33 minutes calls at 79c) to VC numbers so for that reason I'm not on daily free calls. They should just stop all this crap of powerhour and "free calls" to VC only numbers and charge a fair flat rate for all.
 
It's all a load of BS to bamboozle the masses into thinking they're getting a little something for nothing.
