Data disappearing, no answers, no help!
<p>From the middle of June up till now we have been strugling to get and answers from Telkom.</p> <p>Since the middle of June there are great discrepancies between our session reports(actual usage of data) and the usage reports. We are on 20GB soft cap and usually there are a lot of data left at the end of the month. We do not download movies or series and mostly use Facebook, YouTube and Whatsapp.</p> <p>On the 21st of June our data was nearly depleted and we shut our modem off on the 22nd. I even pulled the plug out! When we reconnect to the internet on the 27 th of June 27GB were missing according to the usage reports, but the session reports showed that we were offline for 5 days!! Impossible??</p> <p>On the 30th of June the usage reports showed that we had used over 100GB while mostly offline.</p> <p>We e-mailed ********** net a few times and did not even receive a case number. We phoned 10210 and 10213 numerous times, no answers. We e-mailed Telkom on their website and talk to agents, no help.</p> <p>The only reaction was from the Facebook team(Thank you so much!!) who told me today that we have actually used less than 1GB for the month of July, while the usage reports showed a usage of 15GB on the 3rd of July.</p> <p>Another problem is that we are going automatically to Post Paid charges instead of going into Soft cap mode, so we are going to receive a huge bill and nobody at Telkom can tell me how to remove the Post Paid setting from our account.</p> <p>Account number: TI*****938, Account holder: JH Nel.</p> <p> </p>
Hi Launa,
Thank you for your reply.
I hope you can help us, because it is really scary to lose more data in one week than you had used for the first 5 months of 2017!

Hi, Tumelo
Thank you so much for your help. We really appreciate it.
We received a phonecall today from Telkom. The consultant said that they restored the 20GB for July. At the moment our usage report says that we have 19.2GB left. There is also a message which says:" Your remaining Prepaid TopupData is 10240 MB". We did not buy any Prepaid data, so I am not sure where this is coming from.
We thougth that we were on Softcap, but the usage went automatically to Post Paid. No, it did not throttle the speed, it was very fast!
We do receive daily usage reports (e-mails).
Yes, we were offline from 22nd-27th of June, but the Usage reports that we receicved showed that we used 27GB in those 5 days, 16 GB on Monday!
Our phone number is ********** and the account in question is online ********** **********
It will help if you can log an incident report on our behalf.
Thank you for reply and help.
