Airtel — Auto activation of hungama value pack and deduction of my balance

Address:Andhra Pradesh

Past one month the balance on my Airtel number [protected] is deducting automatically. I get a message from Airtel saying Thanks for downloading a value pack from Airtel for Rs.xxx. Some time it deducts Rs99, some times Rs65 n some some other amount which varies according to my balance. Every time it happens, I call the customer care. They say, sir you have downloaded a value pack. When I say I have not done it and act tough on them, they give my balance back, saying, sir you are our valuable customer so we are reversing the balance this time. But if it happens again we cannot help you.

Once a customer care supervisor agreed that it seems to be a technical problem. He said that it will be forwarded to the technical department and I will never face the problem again. But its repeating again and again.

Its really been frustrating. Is this a new way of Airtel to loot its customers and fund its scams.

Airtel is just cheating. I did not opt for caller/hello tune against my Airtel Prepaid Cell Connection. Airtel activated it automatically.

I am having two connections( [protected]--Prepaid) without hello tune and ([protected]-Post paid ) with hello tune Imagine (remix) .

Surprisingly SAME HELLO TUNE of my other postpaid connection got activqted vide SMS no -6782 & 6781 .I might have pressed some button to close some UNSOLICITED SMS from your end.KINDLY Deactivate your all prmo SMS from both the connection for future years so I may not be trapped like this.

Needles to mention that getting hello tune in my prepaid connection I had to call up your helpdesk executive and then select some tune which got activated after few hours.But in the forced injected hello tunes for [protected] all these stages were not there.

Kindly arrange to refund the charges duducted from the account for activiting hellow tune and extend your good genture to customer which normally airtel does.I have already informed to your helpdesk and ref no is indicated at the subject.

AirTel — deduction from my balance

I am a user of Airtel Mobile service with Mobile No. [protected]. frequently i am receiving messages that enjoy download games with http//gclub and deducting amount from my available balance.

Before this I lodged 2 compalaints and thought that it may be stopped. Today i received a call from Airtel custer service and they inform me that in future it will not happened. But today at 3.30 afternoon again it happened and they deducted Rs.20 from my balance. Due to which i am feeling very uncomfort and planing to change my mobile service from Airtel to any other Mobile service because I can not afford this much loss.

Kindly take personal interest and take necessary step to stop this type of deduction and inform me otherwise there is no way to change my mobile sevice.

Bharti Airtel Limited — Automatic Activation of Various Services and Deducts Money from my Account

Sir/Madam,

I have a prepaid airtel no.[protected] under my name Kulbhushan Hasija.
From last few months , I dont know what is the problem with Airtel.
They activated services on my number at their will and charge me without my notice and request.
Last year they activated Cricket Pack Rs.5 per day for 8 months and then they activated a Shahrukh pack and then a game which I didnt knew at all and they charged me like anything. They are cheating me and my illiterate country people at their will.2-3 months back on my representation telephonically they have stopped all such services which I never need and now once again they have activated Videos Unlimited Pre Subscription Services on 5/07/11 and charged Rs.2 per day for which I have never requested.
In view of the above , I hereby request to please look into the matter and save my hard earned money and thousands of my Indian friends from being cheated.

Thanking You in advance
Kulbhushan Hasija
