[Resolved]  Airtel — JavaGame from Airtel Live Wap

Dear sir,

I am using the Airtel postpaid connection since last 4 years. Some days before i had activated the Airtel online WAP service for browsing the internet free of charge on my mobile device. I knw that there is no charge for browsing the internet and downloading the content from the free website. I was surfing the free site which knw and which i have been surfed it from last 3 years and i knw there is no charge for downloading any content. I was checking out the games and 1 game i suppose to like and i clicked on the that game but after some time the message came "web connection time out" and after that the internet was not working. i knw that the site is totally free and there is also not any hidden fee but still after 3 hours i got the message that "Thank you for downloading java games. you have been chargeg Rs. 99".

This is totally inrelevant charge. Which service i m not using still i got the charged. i called to customer care and he was told me u have to pay charged because u had downloaded it. i told i will not pay any charge.

Pls tell me the solution for this query.

Airtel — fake charges of games downloading while i didn't downloaded such contents

i am not getting any satisfied response from your customer care executives.
My problem is that you have charged me rs.294 as value added services, others column, in my may-june bill.Your executive told me that i have downloaded some games, but in actual i havn't loaded anything.
now i came to knew that i have been charged for more 3 games download till 27th june, now i had deactivated my airtel live on same date
A month ago i have purchased a new nokia mobile phone, with this mobile i got a free airtel value card worth rs.500.
Then i tried to register in airtel free zone with card's pin, but i never get access in airtel, my request never proceed, so, i register complaints many times.Then after few days i recieved a call from some shweta from airtel, she asked me my value card no.& pin no., i gave her the required information.After that day i didn't use airtel live, but before that i used it just for chatting for which i have to charge rs.30 per month & you have already charged me for that around rs.46, i have no problem in this but my problem is that you are charging me for games which i have never loaded.Now when i came to knew this i have deactivated my airtel live & i request you to take some immediate action in this regard & deduct my amount for charging games that i never even browse for any downloadings.
Now i wants the reversal of the unused charges made by the company but airtel is not waiving off these charges

Dear Manager,

I am using Airtel prepaid connection ([protected]) from past 1.5 years. There was an add regarding Java games from Airtel. There was an option in the add to view the offers.
As soon as i clicked on that option, a message arrived from Airtel which saya "Thanks for downloading JavaGame from Airtel Live WAP Service. You have been charged Rs. 99. Enjoy '(link to download some game)' ". It was really painful to get such a message. They havn't even written anywhere that if I click on that option then I will be charged 99 Rs or like that. After reading the message when I checked my balance, they have deducted 99 Rs. After that I called Airtel customer care and then also they said that they can't do any thing regarding this. Please inquire about this ASAP.

Hi All,
I too had the same problem with my postpaid connection. When I click on a link they sent a message like "Thanks for downloading JavaGame from Airtel live Wap service. You'll be charged Rs.125."On the next day I found I have been charged Rs125 on my unbilled amount. On the next bill I have been charged Rs 140.45(including tax ie 125+tax) Then I called the customer care and explained them.
They gave me excellent support and after three days I got a message that "We wish to inform you that we have posted an amount of Rs.140.45 in your account as credit towards VAS usage adjustment."
Now I'm happy.. If you have any queries contact me
