Data theft by vodacom

Why when i buy a whatsapp ticket you still use my normal data when i am browsing whatsapp?

This is robbing me of my normal data, i buy my normal data to do other things yet you keep depleting it on whatsapp...

I believe this is a strategy by vodacom to force their customers to keep buying data, in other words its plain theft!

I was told to go to a vodacom store so they can plug into their lapytops and see whats going on, but at the store they told me they don no such thing.

Stop *****ing our data!

Vodacom you sneaky company you... I should have guessed that you would try to wiggly your way out of answering my questions, trying to shut we up with a credit of data, we will see about that...

Stop with this trying to avoid my query by allocating data to me, answer my questions.
How unprofessional can you possibly get?!..

And can that guy who said he will call be back from your hello Peter department, call me back.
He so abruptly abandoned the call when he realized that he had no answers for me, he said he would call back...

What the hell is allocating me data going to do to resolve the query, I am going to take this further and believe you me your call centers will be bombarded with calls from people asking you the same question, the same people that you robbing.

Are you going to credit all those people with gigs of data to shut them up( I would like to see that), you have some nerve trying to just make me shut up....sort out the issue!

The fact that you have credited me 2gigs of data within 24hrs tells me you know that you are being sneaky about how you *****ing data from your clients.

Believe you me i will make enough noise for you to answer my questions, social media has no limits, i will make sure that you, Vodacom, feel the effects of this particular issue.
