Vodacom<\/a> has recently launched three new data deals – 1GB for R89, 2GB for R139 and 3GB for R189. These data bundles exclude a modem.<\/p>\n

The new data deals are available on a 24-month contract, and includes \u2018Night Owl\u2019 data which gives another 1GB, 2GB or 3GB of data (depending on the package), to use between midnight and 5 am.<\/p>\n

These new data bundles complement the company\u2019s modem inclusive data packages at R99 for 1GB, R149 for 2GB and R199 for 3GB.<\/p>\n

This raises the question of how Vodacom\u2019s new modem-less data packages compare with similar contract promotions from 8ta<\/a>, Cell C<\/a> and MTN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The following table provides an overview of some of the prominent data promotions from the four mobile operators.<\/p>\n
