Any Ideas how Vodafone Measures a Data Session?

Does anyone know how exactly Vodafone measures a data session?

I've been trying to force it to restart sessions every few minutes but it still links all the data sessions together. I've tried toggling data, and also putting the phone in and out of airplane mode.

However, I've got lots of 1 KB sessions randomly from when I haven't been tinkering with it…

It's so weird. Has anyone figured out how their system works?

  • haven't figured it out, but for the last 3 weeks, on the app it's showing me i haven't used any data (despite streaming youtube for 2 hours lol).

    I called up…they said, nope you havne't used any data. So I justy keep downloadingh to my heart's content. They advised call is recorded.

    • +3

      they'll catch on soon enough
      don't come here crying when you get stung for all the data you've rorted out of them
      they ALWAYS catch up

      • Hmm.. I verifeid with teh operator and said straight up that I think you're not calculating correctly…Are you sure I can continue to use data…10gb worth. and he said yes.

        Call recorded. Took down call reference etc.

      • Maybe or they might do what Telstra (broadband) did and just leave it broken for 18 months.

        Some of Australia's largest businesses can seem remarkably … inept at times :p

        Still, the unofficial unlimited Telstra service was fun while it lasted :D

  • Oh well. I'm getting at least the first 512kb free every few hours. (using it as a data only sim)

    I think there are measures there to protect PAYG plus from being exploited.
