AIRTIME TAKEN with no SMS on Data leftover

This is way past the point of annoying the hell out of me. WHAT IS WRONG WITH VODACOM?

I start the month with R115-R125 airtime and bought ONE 100MB bundle on Friday 1 September and I DID NOT ONCE get a SMS on how much data I had left.

Not at 75% or 50% or 25% OR WHEN IT WAS DEPLETED. I thought vodacom was required as all mobile operators are to tell you when you data has expired or reaches the above points.

I want my airtime BACK, this is becoming a problem where every month I need to worry about if vodacom will bother letting it's customers know about their data or just not caring enough to send a simple sms. FIX THE DAM BROKEN SYSTEM

This is getting to a point where I can't wait for my contract to come up for renewal or cancellation as I may just move all my contract over to other mobile operators who seem to always let you know how your data bundle is doing and informing you of it's depletion as well as having lower costing packages.

Get your **** together.

Reviewer Update
Thanks for nothing, the agent that got back to me sent me just plain copy/paste **** without even understanding my problem. I buy data in small amounts 100mb at a time and use it to read news. NOW I did exactly that and never received an SMS like you should receive to inform you your data was either very low e.g under 20mb or depleted. I never got the sms and I can prove it as I have every sms from the date my AIRTIME was taken and I was not informed of low or now data leftover. This happend in July and an agent promptly returned my airtime but whoever got back to me has no damn idea on how to do their job proven clearly by their stupid copy and paste reply trying to inform me to turn of background usage etc. My problem is not background data usage or app usage as I have every one of those uncer control. MY PROBLEM IS MY AIRTIME BEING TAKEN when instead I should be informed that my data is low and that I should purchase another data bundle. What kind of **** just take your airtime without even informing you our data ius low. I cannot wait for ICASA to implement the new law forcing you to inform customers on low data @ 75%, 50% & 25% because clearly Vodacom does not give a ****. As I told the agent you have lost a customer and once my contract has come to an end I will be moving to another provider as I refuse to keep doing this every month or two because your system is so **** it cannot monitor what it should and inform customers with a simple sms.
