It should be noted that Vodacom reported year-on-year subscriber growth of around 485,000 despite the quarterly decline.The increase was driven by a rise in the number of data-consuming customers and smart devices used on its network.

“Revenue growth was supported by strong growth in our insurance portfolio, with the number of policies up 8.0% to 2.4 million,” Vodacom said.
