I saw this sometime back and I did raise it up with Safaricom care on twitter, and I was told that there is an issue with these requests and the first answer is not always correct, and if you check again, you always get the correct usage data

I unintentionally send "balance" to 450 from a certain data line I am using on 3G (prepaid) and got this:

This got me alarmed, because I just bought 1.5GiB on the said line on Saturday, and never quite used it to this extent.
So I called Customer Care to find out and the lady told me she is not able to access the system to get the usage details, so I should head to selfcare.safaricom.co.ke and
register, then find the data. Not sure that is possible, but I don't like the process.

A few minutes later, I again sent "balance" to 450 and got the following:

Now, suddenly, there is 12MB more to my data bundle! Such a big discrepancy I must say.

However, this still doesn't explain to me where my 1.4-something GiB has disappeared to... I am waiting till their system is up for an explanation.

Anyone seeing the same with Safaricom??
