Reactions after Kenyans robbed Safaricom free bundles, minutes and sms(30 days)

Giant Telco company Safaricom is counting huge loses after a technical error saw Kenyans purchase huge data bundles without paying for anything.

Rumours spread like bush fire on social media cycles, that the Safaricom Platinum service was undergoing a technical hitch and you could buy any type of bundle and choose to pay with Bonga Points. Customers got the data, free minutes and free sms even without having the Bonga points.
Thousands of Kenyans used this service to purchase monthly data. At one time, the system had so much traffic that it refused to load. But Kenyans kept going for the free data.
Some people suggested that this might not have been a technical hitch but rather a way of Safaricom celebrating with its users after Kenya’s dramatic win over Tanzania in the Afcon 2019 match played on Thursday night.
Here are some of the hilarious reactions:

Congratulations to #Safaricom, you did well to Kenyans this morning. . Bundles za maana !🔥💪 pic.twitter.com/ktwYGEi0Lb

In the last hours, Safaricom has had a data breach in which about 11.5M customers biodata was compromised exposing customers.

Now there has also been a breach/loophole in which many have scooped free data. Just how safe is #Safaricom that holds the heart of the nation?

#safaricom realized the error after a million Kenyan youths took advantage of it*. *Now they are trying to fix the problem and recover the lost bundles*
Delete the message from safaricom which they send you after you successfully bought the bundles so they don't recover your bdl pic.twitter.com/E5mqeK50py
