Airtel — Unsolicited subscription to News, other paid schemes without consent

Address:South West Delhi, Delhi

I have a prepaid number of Airtel since last one year. During last 15 days, Airtel subscribed me to news and some other trash services on its own (no permission sought from me) and automatically deducted money from my account without my consent.

Within days, more than Rs 100 disappeared from my prepaid account without making any calls, sms. I complained online using Airtel.in online form but they have not even bothered to call me for last 5 days.

This is highly unethical business practice. I guess Airtel believes that it can fleece its prepaid customers this way but I won't let that happen to me. If my complaint does not get resolved in 3 days even now, I shall apply to consumer forum for punitive damages.
