[Resolved]  Global Direct / Vodafone SIM — Please take action against this company - cheating people by providing fake vodafone SIM

On 3rd Dec, 08 I was approached by 2 executives from Global Direct, Jayanagar, Bangalore offering a Vodafone Postpaid connection. The executives name was Bhanu Priya - Tel: [protected] and [protected]. The payment was made by cheque raised towards Global Direct for an amount of Rs. 399 of whicg Rs.99 was non refundable. The executive mentioned that after due verification the Sim would get activated by 8th Dec but it seems her words were of a trained cheat. I did get calls from a person named Stella mentioning that she was from the Verification dept. and the verification would be completed on 6th Dec and also gave me a list of tel numbers to choose from as my new cell number. However no one did come to my residential nor office address for the same. All relevant documents were submitted as proof of my place of address and identity.

Details on the company:
GLOBAL DIRECT
#346, 3rd Floor, Manadi Court, 27th Cross, 3rd Block, Off. Sony World/The Royal Comforts, Jayanagar, Bangalore - 560011

Calls to the mobile pruved futile as the numbers were disconneted ones. the customer copy number given to me was GD.BT 2130 and the Cheque number raised was 569177 (HSBC Bank.MG Rd, Bangalore).

It seems a similar complaint was given months ago regarding such a company in this forum-140 days ago.

Please as a word of caution for anyone and everyone - Please be aware of this company as a fake.
