Vodacom lies about keeping 2025 plan fees increase to 4,5%

I received a message from Vodacom advising the new pricing updates for 2025.

In the message, Vodacom claim that they "managed to keep an average monthly bill increase of just 4.5%."

Vodacom also claims that they have absorbed additional costs to keep device fees, insurance fees, SMS and MMS rates and out-of-bundle data rates unchanged. And, as a bonus, added more data to plans every month – on them!

However, when the new price plans are compared to the current price plans, the increase on average is 8,24%.

Vodacom is taking their subscribers for fools!
