If you’re the versatile type and like to have your data running through a cell phone, we recommend you check out MTN’s latest deals. From as little as R200 per month, you can take home 60GB of data.

Some really good fibre deals can be found at Afrihost as well as axxess. You may have to shop around before finding one that suits you but you will find something you like (eventually).
