Data Communication Rip-off

Happened to me once before, but didn't report and now after more than a year, I have no proof of the previous issue, but with it now being repeated, something has to be done about it.<br> <br> This morning I purchased a 250mb data bundle (at 4.6mb available). Some light browsing later and I receive an sms telling me that my bundle has been depleted. I (begrudgingly) purchase another 250mb bundle feeling like I can kick my own **** for not buying 500mb in the first place (R19 wasted). I then dial *111# and check my data balance only to find that I've now got 462mb available.<br> <br> Browsing through my messages, I see that I bought a data bundle on the 11/03/16 and now, 1 month later, Vodacom tells me that it's depleted. AFTER I'd topped up on my data, thereby nullifying the previous cycle.<br> <br> How many people have received texts from Vodacom, bought additional data only to find that the text was with reference to an older purchase and in no way a representation of current data?<br> <br> This is not honest practice. And after 15 years with Vodacom, I'm at a point where I'm considering a change of network.<br> <br> Bad service I can deal with, but dishonesty I will not tolerate.
