Is Apple working on a fix for ios6 that will stop it from using huge data in the iphone 4s?

Question

When I upgraded my iPhone 4s to ios6, it started using huge amounts of data.  My provider refuses to reimburse me.  Today they told me that Apple has acknowledged the problem and has fixed it in ois6.3.  However, ois6.3 is unavailable for the 4s, and my provider tells me that Apple has not acknowledged that the problem exists in the 4s.  They referred me to Apple.  However, because the phone is off warranty, I will have to pay $35 + tax to talk to an Apple rep--and surely Apple knows the problem extends to the 4s, because it is widely discussed on-line.  I have not seen any reference to whether Apple is working on a fix for the 4s.  Does anyone know?  I can't afford this much longer and am going to have pay a lot of money to switch phones.  And when I switch phones, it won't be an Apple, which will also make me sad--but it is ridiculous for them to produce a problem that is costing so much money and then not to acknowledge it exists.  I am hoping that having addressed it in the 5, they will now turn to the 4s.  Does anyone know?

Yeah, the 6.0.2 update was rolled out to deal with that issue amongs others. But getting it out for the older models was either not high priority or more complex than they anticipated. So the wait continues till it shows up on the update channel.
Pestering Apple Support might not get it done quicker, but at least will offer some sort of vicarious revenge and relief.
