Vodafone — No outgoing SMS on lower amount recharge

I have been using VI prepaid for quite some time. Since my usage is low I have been recharging with lower denomination amounts every month be it 49 or 94 Rs or so.

Now I find that for such lower denomination amounts VI has stopped offering very basic services like Outgoing SMS?

This is clearly cheating and looting on part of VI.
Tomorrow they will say, no outgoing calls for smaller amounts!!

These mobile companies have become greedy and looting the consumers.

I am deeply disappointed by this policy. Going forward Whatsapp and telegram are the ways to go.

Instead of improving and providing more competitive services they are restricting their services and increasing cost for consumers.
I am sure their Karma will take care.
