 Yesterday I attended Feli Nandi's show at Hard Rock Café in Sandton, Johannesburg — and what a night it was. The show was epic. Just when we thought the legacy of voices like Chiwosino Maraire was gone, Feli reminded us that the genre lives on.  https://x.com/NandiFeli?t=p7yxFWzqtvHM6HD13b-QPg&s=08 Feli Nandi is the real deal. The woman is good — her voice, her energy, her ever-smiling presence lit up the whole stage. She’s a true people’s person. The crowd fed off her vibe and she gave it right back. Flanked by friends and fellow artists like Joe Thomas (yes, the Joe Thomas of “I Wanna Know”), Makhadzi and others, she held her own and more. It’s worth it to attend her shows — you leave feeling uplifted. She performed to a fully packed café. Zimbabweans came out strong to support the gig. Some were dressed traditionally, proudly showing off culture. I remember one couple in matching colors — it was beautiful to see. Feli herself was dressed in white, glowing under the lig...

You can now buy Nando’s on credit from Vodacom

-

 14 April 2021

Vodacom has announced the launch of VodaLend Voucher Advance, which allows Vodacom customers to buy food and appliances on credit.

“Vodacom customers can now access vouchers from two leading brands thanks to the introduction of Voucher Advance, an innovative lending proposition and the first of its kind for South African consumers,” the company said.

“Through Voucher Advance, Vodacom customers can choose to ‘pay now’ and buy vouchers at a discounted rate or get an advance and ‘pay later’,” it added.

To qualify for Voucher Advance, customers need to be active on the Vodacom network for at least six months as well as have a proven track record of buying airtime or data bundles.

Currently qualifying Vodacom customers can access an interest free advance on a Nando’s voucher starting from R25, or a R250 advance on vouchers from Hirsch’s.

Vouchers can be accessed through the My Vodacom App, while a USSD functionality will be introduced at a later stage to accommodate all Vodacom customers.

Once a voucher has been issued, customers will have 30 days to pay back their Voucher Advance without paying interest. Vouchers remain valid for three years from the issue date.

Customers can access Voucher Advance under “Vouchers” in the “My Account” tab of the My Vodacom app.

Vodacom Quinton van Vuuren

Vodacom said Voucher Advance aims to disrupt the financial services space and create an inclusive digital society.

Executive Head of Lending at Vodacom Financial Services, Quintin Van Vuuren stated the operator was mindful of the fact that South Africans faced tough economic challenges.

“Our primary focus is to deliver seamless and rewarding experiences for customers and vendors in a cost-efficient way,” Van Vuuren said.

“With our digital lending solutions, we will continue to focus on addressing the challenges related to financial inclusion by going beyond traditional methods. We will continue to innovate to ensure all customers have access to financial services solutions, including those who are unbanked.

Voucher Advance is not Vodacom’s first venture into the lending arena.

The operator previously launched Airtime Advance, which has allowed Vodacom customers to buy airtime on credit. The service currently has around 11 million active users.

 Being a resident of the South African Community, l have came to realize that in some cases we have Car hijackings that will leave one to wonder what will have happened and where did those robbers comes from. The events unfold in a very fast and violent  manner which no-one will be prepared for.
