Look at this interesting bit of news. Looks like the Mobile Anniversary Update can be expected from 9 August 2016.
 
Not on ZA phones yet.

You're fortunate to have one of the older phones that made it to the Mobile 10 list. Is it a carrier phone, if so, did you have to force the update through the Upgrade Advisor app?

The Lumia 830 is a great phone - best I've ever had. Bought it through Orange - it's not locked to any carrier (if I understand you correctly).

The update happened automagically - I did not force the update. No problems encountered.

Yip, it's a great phone. My brother-in-law lost his a few weeks ago, replaced it with a L640 which is very similar in all aspects. Update on my L640XL just completed, got a notification that says "Welcome to Lumia Denim" hehehe...

Are you sure it's Anniversary Update? There was an update to the previous build a few days before this Big One.

In Settings/System/About, what's the OS build? Mine's 10.0.14393.67.

Oops my bad, I bet you're right - my OS version is 1511, build 10.0.10586.545. What's the version number of the Big One?

Just for the sake of clarity of Locked versus Unlocked look here.
My 950XL running on VOD-ZA still has not updated and we are not part of any insider/preview program. Locked Phones are illegal in the RSA in terms ICASA rulling . We are of the understanding that VOD-ZA (a) First test/scrutinize the intended upgrade (b) These websites reporting on upgrades have made a mistake by using the words "Locked/Unlocked" instead of "Country Variant" devices.(c) Ms delayed the update.
NB: All RSA Phones should function on European/UK network RF frequencies for GSM/Edge/3G/Lte because they are deemed Unlocked phones. The problems arise with USA networks.

On Vodacom, I havn't got the update yet on my 640. The main fix I am looking for is improved battery life (which reading the insider logs, its meant to have), my battery seems to drain faster on Windows 10 than it did on Windows 8.1.
