Vodacom No Notification of Data Running Out/Depleted

<p>On at least 3 occasions over the past month, I have suddenly discovered that I have run out of both data and.......airtime: due to the fact that I have not received an Sms notification from VodaCON (misspelling intentional) that my data is either running out or has been depleted. The result of this has been that +-R100 of airtime has been wasted on data at R2,50 per mb.</p> <p> </p> <p>This raises two burning issues.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p>Two burning issues here:</p> <p> </p> <p>1. Why are the notifications not sent?</p> <p> </p> <p>2. Why when airtime is allocated to data is the rate so much more expensive. Considering that airtime can be converted and app**** for the purpose of data purchases, why can it not consistently have the same value.</p> <p> </p> <p>This is just another way for VodaCON to ******* and exploit "customers", or should I rather say suckers.</p> <p> </p> <p>Stephen Legg</p>
