You're kidding me right
Put the SIM in your Cell Phone. Dial *111#, choose Bundle Purchases, choose Data Bundle, then choose the bundle you want.
If you don't convert it to a data bundle you are charged at R2 a Mb right?

If you do not want to take the sim card out everytime, you can load data bundles on the vodacom4me.co.za website. Just register your phone number, get the pin and you can then load data bundles. This also allows you to monitor your usage.
The nice thing with prepaid data is that it is now up to 20% cheaper than contract data bundles. If you load a R1000 vodacom voucher, you receive R1200 worth of airtime. This R1200 can be used for 3 x 2Gb bundles at R389 a time - total cost of R1167, with R33 remaining in your account. So you pay only R967 for 6Gb or only 15.74c/Mb as apposed to the 19c/Mb for contract bundles. This works out at a saving of 17.2%. If you buy this voucher at Pic a Pay, you only pay R970 for R1200 worth of airtime (normal R1100 plus R100 bonus up to beginning January)

Thanks for the heads-up on the 10% extra special. More here: http://www.vodacom.co.za/services/recharge_love/howto.jsp
