Wrong package, cannot reverse, even though I have used none of the data bought.

Tried to buy the 30GB 365 days package online, my data was almost finished, would not work. Bought R900 airtime instead and converted the airtime to 30GB data on my cellphone. I then immediately did a balance check, and found out I had received what looks like a 90day 30GB package. Nowhere in the options on my cellphone did it specify the 90 or 365 day possibilities, I was expecting such an option right at the end. it never happened. Phoned the helpline to see if they can convert this 30GB 90 day to the 30GB 365 day package (probably only use about 12-15GB in the next year, so certainly do not want to pay for 30GB and only use 3 to 4 in the next 3 months). Helpdesk said they cannot help me. At this point in time, I have not used any of this data. How can this be rectified?

Spoke to Theodorah Molotsi. Told her that *147# is misleading, as it offers daily and 30 day bundles; however when you buy the 30Gb bundle (although under the 30 day option, there is no 30 days 30Gb package on the cell C wesite, so I suspect none on the system), so I was expecting a further option to choose between the 90 days and 365 days (both the same price), however it just gave me the 90 day option which I do not want. After talking a bit, where she said she cannot change my bundle, the system does not allow it, (I have not used any data from this bundle), I challenged her to give me a 30Gb 30 day bundle (this does not exist) as per the *147# phone number, she said she could do that, then I said if she can change the bundle for a non-existent bundle, she can change for an existent bundle. She is unwilling to do this, even though both are the same price. I asked for her manager. Gift then spoke to me, and tried to accuse me of making the choice for the 90 day bundle and that it was my fault. After 2 minutes of getting nowhere, I asked for his manager Lucky, who they promised would phone me within 15 minutes. That has not happened now for over 30 minutes!! Not happy at all.
