Aircel West Bengal GSM Service Provider — Excessive deduction of prepaid balance of [protected] on 8th March 2011

Address:Bardhaman, West Bengal

Initially I had a balance of Rs10.23, but after sending a message to 5676709 which costs (Rs 3.00) on 8th March 2011, I was surprised to see that the balance has become Rs -19.76. Instead of deducting Rs 3,Aircel had deducted Rs 33.
I'm neither using their GPRS nor I have any services(like Hello Tunes,jokes) activated in this number.I have raised up the complain two times in the Customer Care.
The complain id's are:1-[protected] made on 9th March 2011and 1-[protected] made on 12th March 2011.
The customer care representative Ms.Sukanya Dutta assured me that the cost of sending an sms to a third party vendor 5676709 is Rs 3 only and the balance will be updated(incresed) within 72 hours,but nothing as such happened.When I called up the customer care(198) to check the status of the complain on 15/3/2011,the representative said that they cann't refund the money as the cost of sending the message to 5676709 has been charged Rs 33 by aircel.
I am surprised how come aircel charge me more?

Snigdhadeb Chatterjee
