[Resolved]  Matrix Cellular International Services Pvt Ltd — Be aware before dealing with MATRIX

I took a SIM connection from Matrix during my visit to Italy, Europe.
The company promised that the call charges from this SIM would be about 40% cheaper then the local service providers.

In the past, I was using my Vodafone SIM (Essar) for my overseas visits for both calling and GPRS services mainly for accessing my Emails and was paying about 8-10, 000 for my visit of about 10 days.

To save my cost, I took this connection from Matrix. They take your credit card number and debit the bill directly to your credit card. I gave my AMEX card number to them and went to Italy.

On my return, I was surprised to know that My credit card is being debited to the tune of Rs. 92, 000/- for my 10 days usages.

When we called these cheats, I was told that out of these charges Rs. 10, 000 was for my voice calls and balance 82, 000/- for my GPRS usages. Though my usages were the same as were in the past.

I wrote to them and asked them when u gave this connection, why you do not tell the users that don't use GPRS services as these services would cost u about 20 times higher then Indian service providers and since these services are enabled on the SIM its your moral responsibility to caution the customers.

Till date I have not received any suitable reply from these cheats and I have already paid AMEX the amount as otherwise they will start charging the delayed payment charges from me.

SO by this, I want to caution all the foreign travellers who are or intend to use MATRIX cellular services that these people are cheat and their claim is fake and I dont want any body else in India to become victim of these cheats.

Hi
I took a sim card from matrix cellular two months back and paid a security amount of Rs 10000 and i returned the sim card around a month back and i didn't recive my security amount back i don't what the hell is happening their when i ever i call some one no response i am reall Pieced off.
Hence i suggest all dont take matrix in future. In uk many other service provider can give cheap call rates tham matrix.
I received the bill no AU709813 for mobile
number [protected]. I am not using this number because
after I came back on[protected] in New Delhi from
Melbourne, I am using my Vodafone number.
Moreover at my last call on[protected], I made the call
for 30 sec but your company had billed me for higher
time and at exorbitant rates. The call rate is AUD 0
.12 per 15 sec and 0.12 AUD flag fall for
international call . So it should be around 0.24 AUD
i.e Rs 15 only but you people charged me Rs 122.
Rectify the bill and I will not make the payment for
this bill

I am requesting your company to
suspend my both connection from 7 April 2008 but when
i enquire from your free toll number on 22 Aug then
she told me they are active.
So what is the purpose of suspending the
connection from 13 July 2008.
Kindly do needful and do not penalize me for your
operator faults in not suspending my connection
