Incorrect Roaming Data Rate Charged - Customer Care Disconnected X2

<p>Tried Customer Care Call centre twice, but also disconnected twice when "transferred" for dispute to be lodged.<br />Went to Congo Brazzaville (Republic of Congo - Not DRC) and received a text message from Vodacom stating that on network "Airtel (COG)" I will be charged R5 per MB. I made sure I was always connected to this network when putting on Data Roaming and actually made my phone default to that network (manually. I have snapshot of this text message as proof. On receiving my Itemized Billing / Invoice, I see I was charged at what work out to be R89 per MB. Customer service were also indicating that there is no Airtel network connectable in Congo..... </p>

Reviewer Update

So, it has been over 3 months now and still no feedback from Vodacom as per their response sent. Tried customer care twice again, but, as Ilve come to expect by now, I was disconnected twice AGAIN.
