Airtel — Airtel not refunding my money and changing their words

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka, 560035

Namaste, I am using Airtel 4G dongle number. In the month of September, while I was supposed to pay Rs. 2, 440 as the outstanding amount, by mistake I transferred Rs. 24, 440. When I noticed it, I called the Airtel customer care on 22-Sep-2015 and explained them the issue. They asked me to send the email to [protected]@in.airtel.com alongwith the scanned copy of bank statement, with the reference number and the cancelled cheque of my bank. Since I did not have any cheque leave left at that time, I asked them what can be the alternate for that ? So they said that bank statement with the transaction reference number displaying my name, IFSC code of my bank, bank account details, my address of correspondence and my alternate contact number are sufficient. So I gave them those details. But then somebody else again replied back that I need to submit the scanned copy of cheque. They also told me that within four hours of they receiving my scanned copy of cancelled cheque, they will transfer my money back. This was on 11th of Oct 2015. So, I had requested my bank for a new cheque book. After I received my cheque book, I sent them the cancelled cheque scan, on Oct 18. But after that, I got a reply from Airtel side that they will refund my money by 10-Nov-2015. This is complaint number 65052591. So I asked them that you told that you will be transferring my money back within 4 hrs of receiving my scanned cancelled cheque and now why you want three more weeks. So they are again & again replying that they will transfer my money by 10-Nov. Also, they are directly deducting my newly generated bill from the total excess amount I have transferred, which is again not fare! So their total amount of transfer to me is getting reduced each time! Today they called me and told me that I have not submitted the bank statement. So I told them I had already given the details long back and after that only they have raised a ticket for the refund of my money. But they were saying that they can't see the bank statements in their records! So this is not at all fare! There is no ethics or process being followed from their side. Nor there is any transparency being maintained. Each time somebody else replies and tells something different. I want my excess amount of Rs. 19, 721.82 asap. I hope you will help me. I have attached some screenshots of the big mail chain with Airtel on this issue from 25-Sep. Thanks.
