Telkom's none BF, normal deals is better than this. I got the A33, with a Galaxy watch 5, for my daughter over 24 months, for R359, that equates to R8,616. Versus VC BF deal, phone only, of R279 x 36 that equates to R10,044. Jissus
R1428 less and an extra watch. And that isn't even comparing the data. VC joke of this BF

Woke up at 1am and looked at the deals. It is a mess to navigate their site. For example I selected just Samsung from the filter and had 52 pages to go through.

Mostly of the A13, A33, A53, S22 Base, and the Flip. In different colours. In different contract options. Maybe these are different dealcodes for each device but was awful to navigate, a custom page could have been 1 page for the 7 devices, with dropdown (or other) for selection of colours and deals.

Don't know where Vodacom come up with this 3 year contract stupidity...

Because, like with credit agreements, people are hyper-focussed on the monthly debit order amount. With the price of phones these days to extend the contract is the only way to make that monthly number look reasonable. And once you’ve established a 36 month phone contract then why not try to rope folks in on them for all offerings?

A 512gb iPhone 13 sounds a bit like overkill for an average bloke unless he really needs to carry his collection of Brazzers offline with him.

36 month deals are for device deals
36 month sim only deals should be banned

XBox series S deal is also nuts. R16128 for a device that developers don't even want to optimize for. That 100mb don't make up for anything on that deal.
People that take any of these deals, will ultimately fund the real up coming BF specials, if any at all.
