I was doing some research for a new contract / upgrade and I browsed some data on Vodacom's website. Sheesh, it is useless! Some things I just can't find:

- IF you are on per-minute billing, do they charge you for the first minute and then in 30 sec increments, or is it always rounded to the full minute?
- If you are on per-second billing, is it from the first second? The Talk 500s page for example says "from the 1st sec" while some of the cheaper S contracts only says "per second billing".
-The more Weekend minutes - I only happened upon some other sites before I realised you have to choose "Weekend" or "Weekday". Is this still the case? Do they also bill per-second or per-minute as per your contract, or is it always per-minute?
- The iPhone plans / Smart Plans that come with data: is it Broadband Advance or Broadband Standard (i.e. out of bundle rate the same as in bundle rate with full speed or not?)

I will probably pick up more... :(

THEY CARGE FULL FIRST MINUTE AND AFTER THAT IN 30 SECOND INCREMENTS (PER CALL)

YES....ALL VODACOM PER SECOND PACAGES GETS BILLED PER SECOND FROM THE 1ST SECOND
-The more Weekend minutes - I only happened upon some other sites before I realised you have to choose "Weekend" or "Weekday". Is this still the case? Do they also bill per-second or per-minute as per your contract, or is it always per-minute?
NOT 100% SURE...BUT I THINK IT WILL USE THE SAME BILLING YOUR CONTRACT IS ONE, BE IT PER MINUTE OR PER SECOND.
- The iPhone plans / Smart Plans that come with data: is it Broadband Advance or Broadband Standard (i.e. out of bundle rate the same as in bundle rate with full speed or not?)
BROADBAND STANDARD BUT IT IS STILL FULL SPEED...BUT IF YOU GO OVER YOUR BUNDLE YOU WILL BE BILLED R1.00 PER EXTRA MEG

I will probably pick up more... :(

Hop that helps.
