Tata Docomo — Unwanted activation of value added services (vas)

Address:Chandigarh, Punjab, 160017

My phone number is [protected] and it is a post-paid connection.
Sir/Ma'am this is the incidence which took place today :

Today in the afternoon at 3:52 PM, my mother received a call from the number [protected]. They asked my mother about our address, my mother's name and my father's name and other details regarding his profession and Office Address since we just upgraded our connection from Tata DoCoMo Walky (CDMA based) to the new one which is based on GSM. Right after asking my mother about all the details, they instructed my mother to dial 2 in order to confirm activation, and when she did press the button, they activated a service named Call Me Tunes. Even after deactivating the service manually, they sent another message around 7:38 PM which had the content saying, "your nametune request is registered now and will be activated within three working days."

I saw the bill on my phone and the bill includes the charges of 'Call Me Tunes'. First of all I didn't activate the 'Call Me Tunes' service. It was activated by your deceptive employee as I've mentioned above in my complaint. Second of all, I deactivated the service within the same day itself. Then why are they charging me for that service even though I didn't avail it. Last but not the least, the phone was never switched off. But the Tata Docomo Customer Care depict some false story in the comments given above. Credit the amount, i.e., Rs. 275 + applicable taxes charged in the bill. The evidence has already been provided in the previous post.

It's been about a month now, my problem has still not been solved. This wasn't expected from Tata Docomo. Moreover, the service they render to the customers is really bad. If this continues to happen, I'm willing to switch to another network. I don't want to waste my time on them. I'd rather buy a better connection even if it costs me a bit more. Shame on you Tata Docomo.
Last but not the least, I'm not going to pay the extra charges for the payment of bill after the due date because, the amount mentioned in the bill was vague and invalid. Also, if you're willing to solve my problem then send a revised bill, which obviously excludes the so called VAS charges. Or else, forget about having a good reputation in the market because if you continue doing like this people like me who've been cheated are going to withdraw their support off your shoulders.
