    Same Line, Different Price

    Same fibre line, different ISP

    Vumatel 200/200 Mbps - the same physical line, resold by the 5 ISPs we publish verified prices for. Below is the real R/Mbps spread you'll see at most addresses, straight from our live deal data.

    Read the chart with the promo caveat. 3 of these 5 packages are on an introductory rate, so the bars above rank on a price that expires. Once every promo has run out, the cheapest line on this tier is RSAweb at R1 095/mo (R5.47/Mbps). The "Reverts to" column below is what you actually pay from the month the discount ends.

    Source: FastestFibre deal tracking (src/data), 5 monthly-billed Vumatel 200/200 packages. Price per Mbps is computed as monthly price ÷ download speed. As of 22 September 2026. Only ISPs we hold a verified price for appear here - Cool Ideas and Vodacom are absent because we publish no verified price for either, and an estimate would be worse than the gap.

    Factors

    What to compare when buying fibre

    Don't compare on price alone. The four factors below decide whether you'll be happy with your line at month six.

    Speed & data

    The residential catalogue runs from 10 Mbps to multi-gig, but the volume sits in the 100-500 Mbps band. Pick the speed that matches your household - not the marketing. A 1 Gbps line saturates a single laptop's Wi-Fi card before it ever helps.

    Price & contract length

    Compare total cost over 12 months including activation, router fees and clawbacks. Month-to-month vs 24-month contracts often have very different effective prices once promo periods end.

    Customer service & reliability

    Read TrustPilot, MyBroadband forums and Hello Peter. A cheap ISP with broken support costs more in the long run. The MyBroadband ISP-of-the-year list is the most credible single signal.

    Free extras

    Free installation, free-to-use router, free voice minutes and a free first month all carry real value, but each ISP quotes its own figure and attaches its own conditions - routers are usually loaned, not given. The freebies column in the table above shows what each package actually includes; read the tooltip before you price it in.

    Save money

    How to save on fibre

    Use comparison tools

    Side-by-side tables (like the one above) reveal which ISP is cheapest at your speed tier - and surface the freebies the marketing pages bury below the fold.

    Negotiate retention

    Existing customer? Call retention before cancelling. An ISP would rather discount than lose you to a competitor. Retention offers are negotiated case by case and are never published, so we can't quote a figure - but they are worth the phone call.

    Bundle services

    VoIP, IPTV and mobile data bundles can pull the effective monthly price down. Vodacom, Telkom and MTN all market fibre + mobile combos; none of them publish the bundled price in a form we can verify, so price the bundle yourself against the standalone line before switching.

    Hunt promotions

    Black Friday (late November), financial year-end (March) and back-to-school (January) all trigger ISP discounting, usually as an introductory rate for the first few months plus waived activation. Check the revert price, not the promo price - the promos live in our tables show what each one actually costs from the month the discount ends.

    Decision Tree

    Which ISP should you pick

    A quick three-question filter to narrow 16+ SA fibre ISPs down to the right shortlist.

    Pick the right SA fibre ISP in 3 questions

    1. Q1

      What matters most to you?

    2. Q2

      What's your contract preference?

      • Month-to-month → Webafrica, Afrihost, MWeb, RSAweb and Vox all sell this line month-to-month by default
      • Fixed 12-24 month term → Mostly the mobile operators. We don't publish their fibre pricing, so compare their quote against the month-to-month prices above yourself.
    3. Q3

      Do you want bundled extras?

      • Yes - voice/streaming/mobile → Vodacom, Telkom and MTN all bundle fibre with their other products - price the bundle, not the headline
      • No - just fibre → Webafrica, Afrihost, MWeb, RSAweb or Vox - cleaner pricing without forced bundles
    Fine print

    Read the fine print

    Headline prices hide the real cost. Watch for: a once-off processing or setup fee (Webafrica most commonly charges R249, with R499 and R999 variants on some products; RSAweb charges R999 or the network's actual install cost, whichever is greater), free installation that is free only on selected packages, routers that are loaned rather than given and must be returned in original condition, early-termination fees (Webafrica, Afrihost and RSAweb all publish R999, though Afrihost's applies only within the first six months), and promo-rate revert dates. That last one is the expensive one: on the Vumatel 200/200 line above, Webafrica goes R1 009 → R1 109, Vox goes R1 015 → R1 215, Mweb goes R1 059 → R1 209 once the intro period ends. Read the SLA - does the ISP commit to uptime targets, response times and credits if they miss? Webafrica advertises an activation guarantee with R999 account credit if the line isn't live in time, though the window varies by network (14, 21 and 30-day variants all appear across its range), which is one of the few publicly-committed SLAs in the SA market.

    FAQ

    Comparison questions

    Ookla-powered tests are the gold standard - including the FastestFibre speed-test page and MyBroadband's tool. Always test from a wired device close to the router for accurate numbers - Wi-Fi will under-report your line speed by 30-60%.

    The FNO (Openserve, Vumatel, Frogfoot, Octotel etc.) owns the cables in the ground. The ISP (Webafrica, Afrihost, MWeb, RSAweb, Vox etc.) rents bandwidth from the FNO and sells it to you with their own pricing, support and contract. The same physical line can be sold by 10+ different ISPs - we currently publish verified prices for 5 of them on the Vumatel 200/200 line.

    Telkom is the retail brand; Openserve is the wholesale FNO Telkom owns. Other ISPs (Webafrica, Afrihost, Vox) also resell Openserve - often at sharper pricing than Telkom's own retail price. There is no quality difference between Telkom Fibre and any other ISP on Openserve.

    No - it's the other way round. On Ookla's Speedtest Global Index city table, Cape Town's median fixed download is 90.20 Mbps (global rank 93) against Johannesburg's 72.67 Mbps (rank 107). That is a city-wide median across every fixed connection, not a fibre-only figure, so your own line matters far more than your city. Vumatel and Octotel dominate Cape Town; Openserve and Vumatel lead Johannesburg.

    Yes. The FNO line stays - you just transfer the active service from one ISP to another. The new ISP picks up the existing line within 24-72 hours, no technician visit needed. There may be a small porting fee depending on the FNO.

    Most ISPs charge an early-termination fee (often R999 or pro-rata of remaining months). Calculate whether the saving from switching beats the penalty before you commit. With 6+ months left on a 24-month contract, switching rarely pays - wait for renewal.

    Trust independent benchmarks like Ookla Speedtest scores, MyBroadband's annual ISP survey and verified TrustPilot reviews. Be sceptical of ranking blogs that don't disclose methodology - many are pure affiliate content with no real testing.
