Please will someone from VC help. Call centre totally incompetent. I cannot buy a data bundle - just get a technical error. My ipad is churning through data. I need to download emails desperately. Who is going to pick up the data bill - been trying for 2 days now!!!!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad:
Service request S2-EQ627-75NCH.
Nobody at the call centre calls back or is even able to comprehend what the problem is. Come on!!! not good enough!!!
8.ta looking very attractive right now!!!
 
Have you tried to buy it using your internet banking? Give it a shot maybe it will work.
 
I have tried via their website and via their call centre - both could not fulfil. Why would internet banking be any different? Seems it will be easier to walk in to an 8.ta store and get a new data sim...I get the impression that VC doesn't care - I had incredibly rude treatment on their call centre. Clearly the R2k per month I spend is not enough...
 
Use a twitter or facebook to log a complaint. They seem to respond more quicker on these channels.
 
I had same problem i buy adhoc data bundles every 2 months on the 1st and 2nd of every month it is impossible to get through to Vodacom
 
Dont want to derail but how do you transfer a data bundle? From my cellphone to my data card sim?

Our customers can now transfer data bundles to Prepaid and Top Up customers so they can surf the Internet, download music or check their emails. Friends and family can now get online even if they don’t have enough airtime by simply using the Data Bundle Transfer service.

Who can transfer data bundles?
All Vodacom customers (Contract, Top Up and Prepaid) can transfer data bundles to Vodacom Prepaid or Top Up customers.

Which data bundles can they transfer?
Customers can only transfer Broadband Standard data bundles of the following sizes:

Bundle Size Cost
MyMeg 30 R28
MyMeg 110 R88
MyMeg 300 R139
MyMeg 600 R189

The whole data bundle is transferred, and used bundles cannot be transferred.

How do customers get the service?

Prepaid customers Prepaid customers are automatically allowed to use this service, provided they have recharged their account with sufficient airtime.
Contract customers Contract customers can request the service from their Service Provider by calling 111 free from a Vodacom or 082 111 from any other phone.
Top Up customers Top Up customers can request the service from their Service Provider by calling 111 free from a Vodacom or 082 111 from any other phone

How do customers transfer data bundles?
• Customers can dial *111# to access the Vodacom Self Help menu.
• Press answer/reply, type ‘2’ and send.
• Customers will be given the option to transfer airtime or to transfer data bundles.

How much does it cost?
There are no costs associated with using the service. Customers will only pay for the data bundle.

Transferring data bundles via *111# is free.

As I understand it...you can not transfer a bundle that is already on your line to a prepaid customer. You will be charged for a additional bundle of the above selected size and billed for it.
