Good morning all

Just a quick PrePay question – how do we check how much data we've used up on Vodafone’s current $1/day internet plan?

I’m currently on the Motormouth plan – when I tried logging into My Vodafone I can’t seem to find that option.

Many thanks!

As far as I know you cannot check how much data you have used. You could find out by checking your phone's own data record but who knows how accurate that is:)

Hummm if its the same as on account, try via the web site .... once you have signed up ... the my vodafone/manage account part of the site gives you good detail... though delayed by about 90 mins ....

Johnr, in layman terms, what does "MSISDN" mean? Would pre-pay customers receive a text, real-time? Thanks.

MSISDN = Phone number,

It means when you reach 8MB and 10MB you will receive a SMS to your phone advising you have used 8/10MB

Hi all

Yes I can confirm what johnr said is true.

Vodafone will send you a TXT as soon as you have used up 8/10 of your alloted 10MB, and another TXT as soon as you have used up your 10MB entitlement.

Didn't take me very long to bust the 10MB cap!
