How to access Vodacom Services Menu
Dial: *135#
If there’s one code to remember, it’s this one, since the services menu gives you access to all other USSD services from Vodacom, including promotions. If you forget a code, you can access the services menu and find the option to access a specific service there. However, it’s handy to remember certain other codes since they are essentially shortcuts which mean you don’t have to load the whole services menu.
