UK plan, world traveller — covered both ways
The Hadeda Plans are UK-only — no roaming. For travel data (including trips back to SA), use our sister brand EPICeSIM, which has South Africa-specific eSIMs and 190+ countries covered. As a 10GB Plan subscriber you get our top-rate 30% discount on EPICeSIM travel eSIMs for as long as your subscription is active.
Best for
Balanced users who want to stop thinking about their data counter — commuters who stream podcasts, audiobooks, and the occasional video, professionals using mobile data between Wi-Fi spots, and SA-diaspora families who keep News24 or SuperSport open through the day and hotspot a laptop when they need to. 10GB is the entry point for users who treat mobile data as part of everyday life rather than something to ration.
Frequently asked questions
- Which network does Hadeda Mobile use?
- Hadeda runs on Vodafone UK. Vodafone UK and Three UK merged in May 2025 to form VodafoneThree, which has announced £11 billion of network investment over 10 years.
- Can I tether a laptop or tablet from this plan?
- Yes. Hotspot use from your phone is included in the 10GB allowance with no separate tethering cap or surcharge — tether a laptop or tablet as needed.
- Can I use my Hadeda eSIM or SIM in a 5G router or MiFi device?
- No. Hadeda Mobile eSIMs and SIMs are licensed for use in a phone — one device, one customer. Use in dedicated routers, MiFi devices, or other non-phone hardware is not permitted under our Acceptable Use Policy. Mobile hotspot from your phone (tethering to a laptop or tablet) is fully supported and included in your data allowance.
- Does the 10GB Plan include 5G?
- Yes, at no extra cost, on the Vodafone UK 5G network in supported areas.
- What does the 30% off EPICeSIM travel benefit actually save me?
- EPICeSIM sells travel eSIMs for 190+ countries — a typical 10GB European travel eSIM is around £10–£15, and longer-duration plans for further-afield destinations (including South Africa) go higher. At 30% off, one or two trips a year easily covers most of the price step from a smaller Hadeda plan to the 10GB Plan. The discount applies for as long as you’re a Hadeda Mobile subscriber.
- eSIM or physical SIM?
- eSIM activation is typically completed in a few minutes via QR code (timing depends on your handset). A physical nano-SIM is posted to your UK address — best for older phones, dual-SIM setups using both physical slots, or anyone who prefers a card.
- What’s Hadeda Caller, and how is it different from WhatsApp?
- Hadeda Caller is a calling app that can dial any South African phone number — mobiles, landlines, business lines, banks, hospitals, schools, hotels, restaurants. The person you call sees a South African caller ID, so it looks like a local call. Apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, and Signal can usually only call other users of the same app — Hadeda Caller reaches the number you actually need. Subscriber rates start from 4.2p/min to SA mobiles. Full rate card available in your Hadeda Mobile account dashboard.
- What if I exceed 10GB in a month?
- Add a data bolt-on from your dashboard, or move up to the 20GB Plan at £11.99 for the next cycle.
Heavy daily user? 20GB Plan is £11.99 and Unlimited Plan is £14.99 — same 30% off EPICeSIM benefit.
