SoftCap This option enables the customer using a capped TI account to use the internet at a reduced speed once the customer has reached the total In-bundle usage. Peer to Peer (P2P) applications as well as streaming services for example YouTube will be significant-ly restricted. The customer will have a choice to continue on a lower speed with restricted access to streaming and Peer to Peer services or alternatively the customer may decide to top-up or upgrade. The data generated by the customer under the throttled speed will be zero-rated.

In order to assist you in using the Usage Tracker we have compiled a short manual to simplify your experience. You will be able to access the Tracker Help wherever you are and whenever you require assistance.

The Usage Tracker was designed especially for the Telkom Internet subscriber and because we value you as a customer we also value your input.

Frequently asked question with answers

What if I’ve reached 100% of my In-bundle limit?

SoftCap refers to data plans with a usage threshold, e.g. 5GB usage threshold. If you reach your usage limit, you will automatically be placed in SoftCap mode. This means that you will continue using the local and international internet, albeit on a slower ISP speed. However, you have the following options to TopUp at out of bundle rates, to get back to full service experience:1. TopUp with credit card*2. TopUp with post-paid billing, up to double your data usage limit**

TelkomInternet

While in post-paid billing (out of bundle), you may opt to revert to SoftCap mode by logging into Tracker and clicking on the SoftCap option.* If you TopUp with your credit card, you may not revert to SoftCap until your TopUp usage quota is completely depleted. There is no roll-over of usage at the beginning of the next month.** Once your post-paid usage limit is depleted, you will be reverted to SoftCap mode. You only then have an option to TopUp via your credit card to get to full user experience.

The screen below with the various browsing options will only be displayed once you have reached 100% of your data usage limit.

If you do not make a selection of the Browsing options you will continue browsing in SoftCap mode as you will be automatically placed there when you reach you In-bundle limit.

The options available to you are:

(1) Top-Up with credit card to continue with the existing experience.

(2) Post-Paid Billing option (Users need to be registered for this option).

(3) Continue on SoftCap option (This option is automatically activated once you reach your In-bun-dle limit or you reach your Post-Paid limit). When the SoftCap limitations are not the desired option, customers can opt for option 1 or 2(only if you have not used your Post-Paid usage that month).
