Vodacom unveils cheaper iPhone Smart Plans

What's more affordable about this? 100MB of data on an iPhone is a joke... And who needs 100 sms's on a smartphone? Even free minutes in my opinion are not that useful. Smartphone contracts need more bundled data!
 
Cheaper?

These are still stupidly priced plans.. 100MB of data?!?! Really? pull the other one Vodacom.
 
agreed, extras like free minutes and SMS's can be left out, just give proper data...
I suppose the reason for low data, is that all the networks make the assumption, that people who can afford these high end phones, automatically have proper wifi internet where-ever they go, be it at home or office.... which may not be entirely off?
Still, at least it gives a choice to the guys who really want this phone, and may not have unlimited wifi.
still a lotta money to pay for a phone
I wouldnt mind having an iPhone, but the cheapskate in me will not allow paying R7000+ for any phone :-)

I wish that the carriers would look at actual usage, or allow the customer to tailor their own package. I need a high data, low minutes/SMS package. A low-end package with 350MB data, 50 anytime minutes, 20 SMSs, and fair OOB rates, at around R300 would be perfect!
 
Vodacom could have done better. The Cell C deals are still better ... R329 for a deal with 300MB data is better.
 
With Vodacom, terms like Cheaper and Free means something completely different than what is defined in dictionaries. 100mb Data.... ?????? :wtf: This must just be another episode in the hidden camera TV show we've been starring on for years!!

no they have to find a new cash cow seeing that everybody is buying "smarter " phones and not using SMS's anymore.
Like they say in the fashion world " pink is the new black(or whatever) - here data in the new SMS"
