Buy Advanced Data
Buy Vodacom Broadband Advanced data bundles online:
Vtime is still the only virtual company to make Vodacom Broadband Advanced data bundles available online via internet banking and EFT.
Broadband Advanced data packages offers higher speed than Broadband Standard (up to 7.2 mbps) and the in- and out-of-bundle rates are the same price. This makes these data packages quite attractive and beneficial to the frequent internet user. Furthermore, Vodacom is making steady progress with upgrading their towers to provide their clients with Broadband Advanced.
So how do you buy these faster data bundles?
If you want to buy an Advanced data bundle direct and pinless to your modem SIM:
- Register Vtime as a beneficiary on your internet banking.
Indicate your choice for Advanced data by entering your modem cell number & “ADAT” as the Beneficiary Reference for your transaction. For example: 0821234567ADAT. - Look up the price for your chosen Advanced data bundle in the table below. EFT that specific amount to Vtime.
- Your purchased Advanced data bundle will be recharged direct and pinless to your modem SIM. You will receive an SMS from Vodacom to confirm this recharge.
Please note:
- Advanced data bundle pricing was not affected by the recent reduction in Standard data bundle prices.
- Prepaid customers can recharge with either Standard or Advanced data bundles.
- Top Up customers need to be aware of the type of contract they entered into. If you have an Advanced Top Up contract, you will only be able to load Advanced data bundles and if you have a Standard Top Up contract, you will only be able to load Standard data bundles.
- Vtime cannot recharge Vodacom Contract customers.

Remember that your Beneficiary Reference must indicate your choice for Advanced data (0821234567ADAT) and you need to EFT the rand value of your chosen data bundle to Vtime.
Example: You EFT R369 with “0821234567ADAT” as Beneficiary Reference and you will be recharged with a MyGig 1.5 Broadband Advanced data bundle. You will receive your data promptly and directly to your modem SIM. Vodacom will send an SMS to your 3G modem SIM to confirm that you have been recharged.
VALUE FOR MONEY:
- If you frequently go out of bundle, the MyGig 2.5, MyGig 3, MyGig 5, MyGig 10 or MyGig 20 might be good options for you to consider at only 18c per MB (in-bundle rate = out-of-bundle rate).
- Please note that if you have a Standard Top Up contract, your SIM will not be able to load with this Advanced data bundle.
Example: The MyGig 2.5 Standard data bundle’s in-bundle rate is 17c/MB and the MyGig 2.5 Advanced data bundles’s in-bundle rate is 18c/MB. This may not seem like a big difference, but now also compare the out-of-bundle rates! The MyGig 2.5 Standard data bundle’s out-of-bundle rate is R2/MB (for Prepaid/Top Up clients), whereas the MyGig 2.5 Advanced data bundle’s out-of-bundle rate stays 18c/MB.
NOTE:
- The capabilities of the access device or cellphone you connect with, as well as the data coverage in the area you are connecting from, will determine the data speed at which you connect to the internet.
- The out-of-bundle data rates are the same as the in-bundle rates when you purchase Broadband Advanced data bundles.
- Before you purchase these data bundles, make sure your local Vodacom tower supports Broadband Advanced.
Another effort by Vtime to make recharging as easy and effective as possible!
