[Resolved]  Airtel — Spam SMS

I too got the same text just now but I thought that why would somebody leave a voice mail when my phone is switched on all the time and with me. I searched on the Google immediately and could see all the complains. Thanks to all of you for saving my time and money. I strongly suggest that don't ever call on the numbers ( especially outside India ) because you don't know whom you are calling and you might get caught in some trap.

Just think that why would somebody give money to anybody for free. Afterall "Nothing comes for free".

Hi im an airtel customer, today i got msg from the number [protected] saying that u have got 1 BPQ voicemail and to call this number, when i call this number i lost money, Please take some action against these kinds of stupid things.

Last week, I got a sms from Airtel saying : " Thank you for subscribing to Matrimony on Mobile @Re. 10 for 10 days. To deactivate send STOP to 54321 "

First of all when I have not subscribed at all then how can Airtel just send me any such stupid sms.
Whenever I replied with STOP, everytime I got about 2-3 responses like :

1. Your request to STOP services has been received. We shall get back to you in a few minutes with the options.

2. The following services are active on your mobile : i. Matrimony Alerts Service - 5432105

3. We have not received any input from you in the last 5 mins. To Stop a service reply to this message with STOP .

I got a reply fm their Customer Support Executive, one Mr. Ajit Kumar K. He expressed regret about the inconveninence caused and also wrote "We would like to inform that the matrimony service has been deactivated with effect from 23/09/09."

It was not some assurance, just some kind of standard reply they send, coz I got same mail from some other Customer Support Executive by the name : Sandhna Sekar B

If the matrimony services had been deactivated, then why am I still receiving these alerts? That I am going to receive these for the next 10 days at the rate of Re. 10 for 10 days. I realized one thing that Airtel is just harrassing so many customers just like me.

I don't understand the purpose of so many e-mails which are complaints against Airtel? But what the hell is happening? When will some action be taken against this fraud company
