How to make money at the expense of your customer

This is a recurring problem I have experienced and Vodacom offers no solution to address this problem. There is a delay between the time that a data bundle runs out and the time that one receives a SMS notification about it. If, during this period you use data you get charged at a very high out of bundle rate. So even if you switch off data on your phone or buy a fresh data bundle immediately after receiving the SMS notification, if you were unlucky enough to have used data during that period Vodacom will charge you at the out of bundle rate.<br> <br> The fact that Vodacom does not offer a solution for this problem is disingenuous in the extreme. With service providers like Afrihost you can specify exactly what happens when your data runs out (incl. automatic top ups) so no nasty surprises at the end of the month. <br> <br> And no, the call limit service that Vodacom offers does not address this problem.
