IMPORTANT<\/strong>: In order to track your Telkom usage<\/strong><\/a>, you have to be connected to your LTE service to view the respective data usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Webafrica\u2019s Internet Usage Tracker<\/a>,<\/strong> you can keep track of your monthly data usage for your Fibre, LTE or ADSL account. However, at this stage, the data we receive from Telkom isn’t real-time data and often has a lag of up to 48 hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


The good news: You can<\/strong> track accurate, up-to-the-minute Telkom LTE data usage via instant notifications sent to your router control panel. For more info on how to set this up, <\/strong>see here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data allocation on Telkom Fixed LTE Packages<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Telkom LTE data packages come with Anytime Data and a free Night Surfer Data allocation. This means that if you sign up for a 20GB data package, you will receive an additional 10GB Night Surfer Data every month to use between midnight and 7 a.m. Please note that if you deplete your Night Surfer Data your Anytime Data will be used in its place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unused Anytime Data will roll over for one (1) calendar month, but your free Night Surfer Data will not rollover. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Telkom LTE data packages work <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On our new updated Telkom LTE packages, you are buying a bundled data package which consists of a doubled-up monthly Anytime Data allocation and a doubled-up Night Surfer Data allocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

 Please see our legacy packages below(no longer sold):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cburn-down\u201d or data usage on these packages work as follows: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1: Bonus Data<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2: Inclusive Anytime Bundle (rollover data first, then newly allocated data)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3: Inclusive Night Surfer Bundle (valid from 12 a.m to 7 a.m)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4: Top-Up Data (if applicable)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I top up? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, you can top up by visiting your Customer Zone<\/strong><\/a>.                     <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can I upgrade or downgrade?<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upgrades are free and are scheduled for the end of the month. You can top-up at any time while you wait for your upgrade. Note: Our Telkom LTE service does not support downgrades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
