The Affordability Index is a value anywhere between 1 and 100, with 100 being the most expensive, and 1 being the most affordable.
The Rand value for the amount of minutes shows in brackets next to the affordability index.
Only Virgin will show a difference when increasing the minutes due to the drop-down rate.

Graph Methodology
The graphs are generated by taking the most expensive charge from the group and normalising the other charges. For example if the '10 mins to other' has a package that is say R33, and it's the most expensive, that is used as the benchmark. The other packages are then simply divided into the most expensive one as percentages. If an even more expensive package is added the percentages will then change.
