What Vodacom Email is
Vodacom Email is a web and mobile email service for registered Vodacom customers. It provides a mailbox with either 3GB or 5GB of stated storage, including a listed 5GB plan priced at $29 a month, billed R29 per month. Customers must have a Vodacom mobile contract or a prepaid account with a positive balance, and each customer may hold only one service. Accounts can be created through the My Vodacom page, with activation after the monthly fee is deducted successfully. When the 5GB allocation is full, stored messages must be deleted before more arrive. Vodacom may limit message retention, message counts, message size, and access frequency or duration. It does not guarantee delivery or continuous availability and says it keeps no message records. Accounts unused for 90 days may be changed, suspended, restricted, or cancelled without notice. The nominated Vodacom mobile number appears in sent messages.
