Can this be done from Vodacom4Me? After the 1st 5MB is loaded, the option for 5MB is not available any more. How else can I do that? I want to recharge with the 5MB + extra 25 MB free, a few times. Also *111# does not show a data bundle option on my contract sim card, only on prepaid sims?

I have just called 155 and gone through the mess of menus and spoken to someone to get mine added. I am not sure if you can load multiple R5 bundles. I added a new bundle on Friday, now it is using that vs from the old R3.02 I had left on my previous data one, sneaky they make you use the newer ones 1st.
Dialing *111#,1,4 (for me) doesn't show me the free data in the data balance which sucks a bit, I have to get that from V4Me (which isn't loaded at the moment at all)

You cant load multiple bundles at once.
 
can be done

i did that at the begining of the month....loaded about 26 5meg bundles, scored 100 meg data free....the things we do yo get a bit more data out of our over priced network providers.
 
Not even Vodacom4me works. It looks like I can only add one of each size data bundle. Of course, I want to load multiple 5MB bundles to maximize my "free data". The moment you add a certain bundle, it moves from the bottom section of the screen, where it is un-ticked, to the top where it is ticked, and with a warning that if you uncheck a data bundle you will loose the data.
 
I did not try that yet, all I mean is that after I added a 5 MB bundle on Vodacom4me, for a contract sim card, the 5 MB is not available for selection any more, only all the other bundles. So next I would have to load e.g. a 20 MB bundle (which I dont want to). Anyways, it looks like calling 155 is the only way for me to ld multiple 5 mb data bundles onto my contract sim card.

How is that possible?

That would mean a client can load +-10 500Mb bundles.

I'm confused here... has that prepaid data bundle rule been removed where you can only buy a new bundle when reaching 10Mb or less or when you reach 20% of the bundle threshold?

That explains it, I've heard it works on pre-paid, but it seems the contract system has not been updated since the carry over rules were put in place.

Only problem with contracts is when activating adhoc only multiple bundles has to be done by 155 as they use a system where they add the 5mb then delete and then add again e.t.c. for the multiple bundles so it can be a schlep.
