Vodafone NZ bug over-credits loads of customers

Link: http://olive.dominionpost.com/

Joseph, 13, received about 100 text messages from Vodafone over the course of two days, prompting him to turn off his mobile phone.

When he turned his phone on again, the texts — promoting a Vodafone mobile game called The Golden Compass — were still coming through.

After a phone call to Vodafone, he received a text message informing him $5 would be credited to his phone.

Luckily for him, the credit kept on coming.

What a nice bug to experience, eh?
