You’ll be sent to a mobile web page where you’ll choose whether to:
Buy a one-off 500MB data Add-On for $12 per month or
Continue at the casual data rate of 20c per MB
One-off and per month?
pretty sure it means it lasts the month - billing month, at least. rather than saying just "$12 for 500mb" and then people saying "there was no expiry!!"
The popup will appear on your laptop, and/or whatever browser is being used to access the data connection (eg all devices connected via a personal hotspot will be redirected to the popup page). The text notifications always appear on your mobile.
this service came a month too late for 2 of our users at work, one managed to clock up 16GB (on a 1.5GB plan) and due to the roll out of Data Angel and the timing he only got a warning 2 days before the end of his billing period, by this time he had used 15.5GB of data. Vodafone did agree to credit $750 from the bill but rejected my request to charge out the data used at $12 per 500mb, which I thought was a bit rich since their system never alerted us to any issue until the bill was around $1500. still a credit is better than no credit.
Initially at the begining of the month Vodafone was saying Data Angel type service would NOT be available on Vodems or data only connections, however I have been told that this is available on their new data plans, so if you have a vodem or wi-fi hotspot might be worth talking to them about the options.
While the Data Angel captive portal may have come too late, Vodafone have always sent SMS notifications for excess usage. I assume they were all ignored?

no they didn't arrive until it was far too late. This has been confirmed by Vodafone that they were never sent.

What was your client using the mobile for? A bloody server?

the iphone was corrupted and was constantly sending data, it was either Draw Something, backing up to icloud or trying to constantly send an e-mail, I have had all these issues with my iphones at work lately.
I know a little more than nothing but not much...
