Vodacom will adjust its voice and data out-of-bundle (OOB) rates for prepaid, contract, and topup customers from June 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mobile network recently started notifying customers of the changes via SMS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“To continue delivering the quality coverage and service you expect, we’ll be implementing our annual update on selected products and services, which will take effect on 1 June 2025,” the message stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For customers on contract and TopUp plans, the OOB rate for voice calls and SMSs will increase by two cents per minute and two cents per megabyte, respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The changes will also impact customers on the following prepaid price plans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Expressed as a percentage, the price hikes on OOB data on all prepaid plans except Power Pack and Prepaid LTE will be 4.1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Power Pack and Prepaid LTE customers will pay 6.9% more for OOB data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Vodacom initially made an error that said Prepaid LTE’s OOB rate would reduce from 49 cents to 31 cents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A spokesperson has subsequently confirmed that the correct original rate was 29 cents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In terms of OOB voice rates, most plans will get an effective increase of 1.2% \u2014 apart from the Prepaid LTE and Prepaid 79c products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prepaid LTE’s OOB voice rate will be increasing by 1%, while Prepaid 79c will be bumped by 2.5%. The latter is Vodacom’s most affordable prepaid product for OOB calls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These increases follow Vodacom’s annual pricing adjustments<\/a> for contract customers that took effect in March 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In that instance, Vodacom implemented an average increase of 4.5% across its Red, mobile broadband, fixed-wireless access, and Flexi postpaid plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n MTN<\/a> and Telkom<\/a> have also implemented price adjustments in the past few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The tables below summarise the increases in OOB rates for Vodacom customers, effective 1 June 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Vodacom will adjust its voice and data out-of-bundle (OOB) rates for prepaid, contract, and topup customers from June 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":341042,"featured_media":576853,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[55892,25559,21391,10478,41],"class_list":["post-593468","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cellular","tag-contract","tag-mobile-data-prices","tag-out-of-bundle-oob","tag-prepaid","tag-vodacom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593468"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/341042"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=593468"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593468\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":593558,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/593468\/revisions\/593558"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/576853"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=593468"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=593468"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=593468"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}OOB data rates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
