Telecommunications companies MTN SA and Vodacom have reflected on their investments in the Eastern Cape over the 2023/2024 financial year, an accumulated R800m, though an internal study by the University of Fort Hare on its students has revealed that 64.5% are still without proper connectivity. In a media statement, Vodacom said it would invest more than R500m into the province towards new base stations, improving network capacity, LTE upgrades, backup power stability and a 5G rollout.

Local telcos weigh-in on the anticipated next auction round to access more spectrum, as Telkom seeks postponement.

The offer is extended to all departments and business units, and MTN SA is not pursuing a specific number, it says.

The award was given in recognition of their work in building flexible green site solutions.

The communications authority confirms successful bidders for the 700MHz-800MHz spectrum bands have paid accordingly.

The telecoms operator selects Payabill as one of the finance partners for its SMME Xlerator programme.

The company deploys more than 20 000 batteries, 5 000 rectifiers and 900 generators to sites across the country.
