Thanks, I guess I'll have to get myself a Prepaid sim.

These same prices have been availble on TopUp (and Contract) from 15th of December last year.

Except the 20GB, so if that's your thing, it's only on prepaid at the moment.

They will just extend this promo into infinity same as they did with the 2GB for R149 contract "promo" that's still available, like 3 years later.

Agree with your post, but from a planning point of view in terms of budget, convenience(sim swapping) and basically overall planning of your bandwidth usage(i.e.Am I really on 20GB,5GB,2GB,20GB,2GB+1GB,60GB+60GB?:confused:) the one month seems a bit stupid.

I'm all in favour of competition(and big-ups to Vodacom for coming to the party) but in my opinion I believe all the "flavours" of these promotions the past 12 months or so should be standard pricing by now from all networks(including the big one's 50/60GB+ from 8ta and Cell C in light of LTE deployments).

Once more,well done Vodacom but...One month?!?!?C'mon!!!(Remembering the 20GB was promoted for 2 to 3 months when it first came out and we could plan accordingly for our bandwidth usage and budgets).
 
Thanks vodacom. Always wanted to get my Southpark collection, this 20gig is exactly what I needed.
 
Ha! Now I understand why Vodacom keeps their standard pricing so friggin high! It's a marketing ploy...

20GB standard price... R3,199... promo price... R499.00... that's a wopping 84% off! I can imagine the uninformed average joe sees 84% and thinks it's the best deal ever!
 
For a lot of you this prices aren't special, but for people like myself who stay in areas where cell c and 8ta has no hspa+/hsdpa this is like manna from heaven.

Would have been better if it was valid for longer.
 
When can we expect to see them on the portal? And will they be available to bolt-on contract?
 
Updated the article with confirmation from Vodacom that these promotions are available to users on the LTE network.

You mean "also available to users on the LTE network" otherwise, you'd be adding ambiguity here.

I agree, they could've at least extended it to two months. But I'm not complaining, I shouldn't have a problem getting rid of 20gb in thirty days.

I'm just glad that this is available, it's better than nothing at all. ;)
 
I would like to see a table for comparison purposes, like it was done before. It is easier to read.

0/ ^ What our pedantic friend R13 said. Vodacom didn't say "also" but they meant it.
