“So, I signed up to pay just under R1,160 a month.”

Avoiding the temptation to take a new fine and being lucky enough to get the right advice on my package was all it took.

So, I signed up to pay just under R1,160 a month. This included the repayment on my “oh-so-beautiful” Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phone at just over R520 a month, and the new contract, which is obligatory if you want to buy a phone and pay it off monthly. It seemed like a great idea at the time - data prices are cheaper if they are standalone rather than attached to your phone and five devices could be connected to this nifty gadget that fitted into my bag.

When I recently called Vodacom to cancel the contract on the wifi device, I was referred to the “retention” department.As expected, she did try to persuade me to buy another data SIM plan but I was firm in my decision to get rid of this money guzzler.
