No response on excessive data costs

Despite numerous mails to enquire why my data costs have suddenly after more than a year trippled I get no response. Every month I simply have to cough up the money for the data usage but no one gets back to me on what is going on on my account. For all I know someone could have hacked into my wifi or 3G but have not way of tracing where the problem is. What poor service! This after putting up the contract costs without notification.<br> I've been forced to upgrade so that I could take a different contract that allows me to put a soft lock on the usage as they are not helping me to trace the source. Unacceptable

Hello glimshimmer,

We are truly sorry for any inconvenience caused.

We've now logged a dispute request with our Billing Department to validate the additional internet usage (packet switch data call charges). The reference number for the request logged is REQ:***.

We must also advise that our data rates have changed as of the 1st of April 2015. The new out of bundle rate is now R0.99 per MB. This will also only be charged once you have used up your available data bundle.

Regards
Tim
