Ridiculous Data charges

<p>I first contacted customer care over a week ago and still have no response from anyone. My bill for November is a whopping R6500, when my normal monthly bill is usually R1400. I usually buy data bundles immediately when I receive the message that my bundle is depleted. During October and now it turns out November too, I was never sent those messages from Vodacom, which resulted in them charging me out of bundle rates which we all know is a *******. Now I have a R6500 bill because of data!!!!!! I emailed Vodacom screen shots of where I bought bundles and screen shots to prove I never received the notification that it was depleted. Still have no response a week and 3 emails later. My contract has expired and I think its time to leave Vodacom after supporting them for over 16 years. Really disappointing service...</p>

Reviewer Update

It has been a very frustrating few weeks dealing with Vodacom to say the least. The consultants that assist you when you call the call centre is ***********. They cut your calls, transfer you to someone else mid conversation by mistake, etc etc. I eventually cenacelled my contract which has expired a month ago anyway. BUT then you get a very helpful Vodacom staff member like Candice (so sad I didn't get her surname). She contacted me yesterday and assisted me in such a friendly, helpful, efficient manner. She is the only reason why I am considering renewing my contract with Vodacom. Thank you Candice, if only all of the Vodacom consultants were this efficient.
