[Resolved]  Airtel — Bank Details being asked in airtel online website itself

Address:Dakshina Kannada, Karnataka, 575014
Website:pay.airtel.in/online-payments/payment.jsp?params=OsvUtbXfIM7MsFvpYELERMMfM22ZxyAqW9kxulO7Oe2XMzPRn%2

Had to recharge my Mobile Phone through online web portal provided by airtel.
Had 2 unsuccessful transactions: Following are the Txn Id's
Txn ID 1 :[protected]
Txn ID 2 :[protected], in one of the txn, amount of Rs. 200 is been deducted from my bank account and recharge is not been carried out.

Both The transaction is been unsuccessful, (after giving my Debit Card Details.) Why is it Airtel requesting the Customer's banking credentials in its web portal? Usually the web portal has to redirect request to Third party site which manages the banking request. Why airtel involved in such a practice? And also its not the first time I had to face this issue.

I want to look into the legality of service providers requesting the bank credentials in their web portal.

Dear Officer,

Once I have given Txn Id means the contact information is inherited in it. I need not give again my contact information. May be there was a recharge done on that occasion but the problem still remains.

Today again the same issue has occurred.
Txn Id[protected] & Txn ID[protected] was unsuccessful. I totally regret the way website is designed and storing the Bank data in your space is questionable. Still I request for legality of the process its being designed.
