Link to the source please?
That's great news. Would be awesome if they did it from 23:00-07:00
On a 2Mb/s line with a 14% ATM+TCP overhead you can download 5.65GB in 7 hrs best case scenario so lets assume 5GB for schites & giggles which would yield 150GB in a month more or less.
If you schedule your downloads in these hours and don't use much during the day then their capped packages are great value for money which I have said before.

So are you sure its not extended from 11pm – 6am?
And it definitely starts at 11pm, I started a big download at 22:30 on Saturday night and only a small bit was taken from normal bundle and 7GB from Night Surfer...
DOH! Ignore what I said, my comment was for TELKOM MOBILE

Ok, so this is only for Telkom Internet (ADSL) and not Telkom Mobile (3G, HSPA+, LTE).
Got excited for nothing.
*Thanks for your replies, much appreciated.

Applies to mobile as well (found out the hard way by running out of peak data this month).
No, you have limited data in nightsurfer time. If for instance you have a 10GB bundle you only get 10GB for nightsurfer time.
