Prepaid fibre and what it changes
The prepaid option is the genuinely different thing here. Paying R20 a day suits a tenant on a short lease or a household with irregular income far better than a 24-month contract, but run the arithmetic before assuming it is cheaper: daily rates add up quickly against a R199 monthly package if you use the line every day. Coverage still works the ordinary way, decided by which partner network has trenched past your address, so confirm serviceability first. Ask what happens to the line when prepaid credit runs out, and whether the installation is refunded or retained if you stop buying. Compare providers in the fibre provider directory.
Who My Own ISP is a fit for
- Tenants and short-stay households that want fibre without a long contract
