Just noticed this item in my Afrihost Rain Control Panel ... Is this a new development? I hope it applies to my current 25+25 package.

* Monthly Data Rollover. Monthly Data will only expire at the end of the NEXT month. This means that if you haven't used all of your monthly data by the end of the month, it will rollover to the next month. For example, if you get 25GB per month and you have 5GB left at the end of February, this 5GB data will rollover to March, giving you a total of 30GB to use until the end of March.
 
Yes, noticed it too.

Monthly Data
Allocation: 110.00 GB
Expires: 1 Aug 2018

Happy with this :)
 
I will also be very happy if this applies to my current package. Hopefully Afrihost will also offer some type of Night Surfer option in the near future.

What does it say in your usage (on the right) ?

This is what mine looks like.

Mine looks the same. I am hoping that the bandwidth remaining figure is reasonably accurate as I haven't been keeping track and the graph has not been updated for several days.

Looks accurate, I compared it with my router stats.
 
I hope that Afrihost is going to let us renew our current packages when the Free Data promotion ends in November otherwise I won't be getting much benefit from the rollover! R299 for 25GB monthly with rollover after November will not be enough to keep me from moving to one of the Cell C fixed packages.

Mine is at 23GB so nothing has rolled over (I had at least 12GB IIRC left on 31st of last month).
I signed up (this March ) after the 25+25 cut off date so no freebies for me.

So I'm guessing it does't apply to everyone. Pffft , would have thought it across the board.

Only from next month onwards.
