Giant cellphone company Vodacom has dealt Nelson Mandela's family a financial blow after it pulled the plug on the free airtime it has been giving them for at least 23 years.
Sunday World has learnt that the company withdrew the privileges around March this year after their bill skyrocketed to alarming proportions in recent times.

Among those who have been enjoying the VIP status were Mandela's former wife Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, his daughters Zinzi and Zenani, and grandchildren Mandla, Mbuso and Ndaba.

Well, I think that's fair. No reason for free airtime at this point, they can work like regular civilians, which they are.
 
oh noes, what an awful 'financial blow' they've been dealt ...... I'm sure many hearts are just pumping custard for them :rolleyes:
 
They still get free contracts, just not uncapped !

“The company has now downgraded Mama Winnie to a capped top-up contract of R2500 per month, while the rest were relegated to R750 top-up contracts.”
 
Considering how much stuff you touch during the day my dick is prob cleaner than my hands
 

That's why you should touch your dick regularly, so it'll be just as clean as your hands.

Why did they have it free in the first place? They have millions, they should be subsidizing me, not the other way around

Anyway, to me
The company has now downgraded Mama Winnie to a capped top-up contract of R2500 per month, while the rest were relegated to R750 top-up contracts.
means its still free, but no longer unlimited
 
Do you think Allan Knott-Craig has a free uncapped Vodacom, Cell C or both ?
