Aircel — Unauthorized activation of subscription and talk time deduction

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

On 30th dec, I noticed that approximately 100 Rs talktime was vanished from my Aircel mobile account (Karnataka zone) . I called to the customer care to complain and was told that it was deducted for some subscription which I have never opted for . So I asked for refund and deactivation .

Later in my sms inbox, I noticed a sms saying :
Thank you for your request to subscribe to STORE 99 . To complete your subscription please click on .
Earlier, at times I have received similar sudden random messages (generally from 59061, including STORE 99 as well) . If I receive such messages, I always make sure not to click the link and the pack does not get activated . As usual I did not click on that address this time also . I understand that this message was related to the same subscription pack that I mentioned above .

But I do not see any msg about WHEN the subscription got ACTIVATED, WHEN and HOW much amount was DEDUCTED . No msg for deactivation also even if I requested for deactivation .

As I didnt get my refund, I emailed the customer care (care.[protected]@aircel.co.in) next day i.e. on 31st dec, 2015 .
They didnt even bother to reply back . So again on 12th jan, 2016 I sent a follow up mail . This time they replied and after that there were several mail exchange between me and them but still they are not ready to give me my money back .

In the mail, this was the Reference number : 1-[protected]
and these numbers (ERN[protected]QJ1MS8) (ERN[protected]HVQ) were there (not sure what they are..possibly auto generated acknowledgemnt number)
If required, I can share my mobile number separately via email .

I can assure from my side .. neither I requested for such service, nor I confirmed any subscription, nor I have used any, nor I intend to . I do not authorize aircel to activate that pack on my number or deduct talk time for the same . Here I request again to give me complete refund of my talktime .

Thanks and Regards,
