Coming to vodacon in 20 years time!

At a low monthly price of R19.95

 

[Absinth]

Move in the right direction

 

[Randux]

Now cheaper bundles and I'm on board.

This should not be an option.

OOB Barring should be set by default. Unbarring it should be left as an option.

^ this

Hmmm, I wonder if this is what the CEO was referring to when he said at the MyBroadband Conference to "Watch this space" in response to Aki's question about the pricing of out of bundle data?

 

[cavedog]

A step in the right direction. So far it is only Telkom and MTN making moves. MTN with R49 for 1GB weekly and OOB blocking.

Vodacom does not want to come to the party and one has to wonder why. Would be very interesting to see revenue just from OOB usage.

 

[whatwhat]

OMG.

Jannie will be here soon to tell us that Vodacom released lab testing with OOB blocking 3 years ago already.

I have no doubt about that....

That 1GB package is only available for this December only right?

But only on the top secret phones that get 500Mbps LTE

This. Do what Telkom does. When your data bundle is depleted you are asked if you'd like to go out of bundle, add a bundle to your account, top up via voucher or credit card. The default is to stop access.

100%...

There are flaws in the Telkom system that I've come across...

When your main data runs out, everything seems to stop.. even the IM access for things like Whatsapp... but its a small annoyance at the end of the day.

Just checked my wife's phone, The facility is NOT available ????

 

[Gunner182]

Telkom. We've been having it.

Seems to be:

Prepaid - 141# option 2 then option 11.

Contract - *141*0# then option 8

What a joke, how is this even news? It should be by default blocked.
I wish someone with money and balls would take on VC and MTN

What happened to that billionaire woman?

 

[rodga]

no barring option on my 50gb deal...

 

[supersunbird]

*141# option 2 then option 11.

Option 11 has disappeared from my phone and doesn't show on a colleagues either..
