This message comes everyday and re.1gets deducted from my account. OPTIONS TRIED - I tried to stop it by calling customer care.....I got messages from 1210 saying.... "Your request corresponding to Comedy junction could not be processed. Please try after some time" [protected][protected][protected][protected][protected][protected] I have also tried with the options from AIRTEL website to unsubscribe the automatically renewing subscription.. using UNSUB <SERVICE NAME> to 54321... as a reply to this...

AND I WAS HAPPY THAT SERVICE IS STOPPED... BUT THE NEXT DAY AGAIN I HAD GOT THE SAME MESSAGE FROM 54321 WITH RE.1 DEDUCTION...

Airtel seems to be having a full time 'Dirty tricks Deparment' working 24/7.
They say they have started 'Bikini Alert' or 'Matrimonials' and other assorted rubbish for Rs10 for 10 days and so on. And if I don't wnat I should sms STOP. You reply 'STOP'. They merrily inform you: 'Welcome. The service is started.' You frantically sms 'STOP STOP STOP'. They say they cannot process that. And they start deducting money wuith the regularity of a pendulum clock.
Why should the subscriber be asked to 'STOP' an unsolicited service. If he want he can sms 'START"
I don't know who runs this company but it is a shame that such a 'big' man should stoop to the level of a streetside pickpocket. And they do it better than any Fagin or the Artful Dodger.
It is like stealing candy from a child.
But at the end of the day I can't understand why I stayed with Airtel for as long as I did.
I have just given them the boot and switched to another service.. And for now 'Aall is well!'

Even i have the same problem. I am loosing money for a cheap service of this kind for no mistake of mine. I do not know what to do ?
Hi,
I am facing the same problem...
I have decided to change my connection to some other provider...
Airtel is just too menacing...
The Bikini alert stuff is day light robbery!
I have so many ppl who are facing the same problem ""You have been renewed for weeklysub subscription service from Airtel. You have been charged Rs.20.Play Games http://gclub.in from 54321."
I would like to know if there is any remedy for this.
My number is [protected]. Kindly do call if you have found a way out.
But my suggestion would be to get a decent connection from any other company where u do not get bikini alerts.
