Airtime dissappears and false airtime awards

<p>In the last week my airtime appears to be dissappearing without knowing where it goes to. I have data bundles loaded and it will just dissappear. I also do not appreciate when vodacom claims that I have additional airtime to use (due to the package I am on or due to promotions) for that day, but when I make calls or convert airtime to data it uses my long term airtime and not the airtime I was awarded for that day? Why can I not use the airtime... it becomes *******. They also claim that for a promotional period...if I spend R10 I get R100 for the day. But anything I do thereafter uses my regular airtime. </p> <p> </p> <p>I have been with vodacom for 20 years now and guess what...you are expensive and unco-operative and blaming unreasonable terms and conditions which we have no choice but to comply to just to have a line. Fix this or I am moving over...so sick of big companies bullying the general person on the street.</p>

Dear vodacom.

I have not received any data as noted above. I have also not received any contact, explanations or communication from you regarding my query. I feel that you are merely writing empty words on a public platform to safe face.
