[Resolved]  Reliance Communications GSM Postpaid — Unlawful retention of my number and corruption

Address:Mumbai Suburban, Maharashtra

Hi my name is Mr. Amol Ajit Pandit. One month back i had purchased a Reliance GSM Connection from a Reliance representative. The number for the connection was [protected]. I paid the charges for the VIP number in cash to the representative associated with the reliance franchisee "M/s. Ram Telecom" located in mulund. After activation of the number i continued to use it for a period of one month and also paid the subsequent bill. But one fine day the SIM card for the same connection stopped working at around 5pm. So the next day i went to the Reliance Web world in Suman Nagar chembur where i was told to contact the person whom i had purchased the number from. On doing so i was told this number belongs to someone else. I asked to be introduced to this person where i was told the original owner of this number is a close aide on anil ambani and trying to get in touch with him can have serious consequences. now my number is been stolen and i cant use it and i dont even have my money. on top of it they asked for 50000 for the number and are issuing threats that i might face trouble from Anil ambani. the persons who have duped me are Ram Varma = [protected] and Anil Jain = [protected] / [protected] and Ravindra Sethia (person who is supposed to have demanded 50000 for the number to be returned to me = [protected]. To top it off some person named Rashmi Kedia supposedly from Reliance legal called from some number[protected] and issued threats regarding legal action if number is not handed over to them. I have valid bills for the month of february and march and have also made payments for the same via online bank trasnfer. The number was also converted to prepaid without my written consent apparently by forging my documents or signatures i guess.

Please i need some help regarding this matter as I am helpless.

Dear Amol,
this is totally unethical behavior on part of reliance.I would suggest u to file a police complaint against Mr.Sethia and Miss Rashmi Kedia as well as the reliance representatives, who have cheated and threatened you.Also send a copy of this complaint to Anil ambani through your lawyers so that immediate action will be taken against the culprits who are hiding behind the big brand of reliance and cheating people.

I got your number from your complaint and i will be calling you and will provide you contact details of a few reputed newspapers and news channels so that you can expose the criminals working for reliance who are strong arming common man.
This is shocking. this is bullying. people need to teach reliance a lesson for behaving in such a way with people. this is simply not done. i would suggest immediate legal as well as police action against erring reliance employees who think they can do whatever they want.

i will forward this link to all my friends so they can also comment / help you out on this matter.

Dear Amol

First things first the Anil Ambani led ADAG is the most corrupt organisation in India (Mukesh Ambani led Reliance Industries is not that far behind).

From your complaint it seems that they are trying to extort money from you, as they first told you that the said number belongs to someone who is close to anil ambani and later on asking you for rs.50000 for the same number just proves that they were lying to you and just trying to extormoney from you which is a criminal offence.

My suggestion is that you file a compalint at the relevant police station at the erliest for theft of your number as well as send a legal, notice to reliance (read anil ambani) through your lawyer.Since extortion is a serios crime itis imminent that the people who were involved i.e, Mr.Sethia and Miss Rashmi Kedia will be arrested provided you have the valid documents with you.

It is o[censored]tmost importance to society at large that such unethical prctices by big corporates are exposed and the necessary action taken against the culprits. Reliance Communication has a long history of duping consumers but sadly not many have stood up to them. Since you have a very strong case i suggest that you leave no stone unturned to claim what is rightfully yours. You should also put up this in social networking sites and other consumer forum as well as file a case in the consumer court at the earliest and claim substantial damages for the mental harassment and loss of income if any due to non operation of your number. I also suggest strongly that you take the help of the media both electronic & print to highlight this case to the indian public.

It is high time we put an end to the corrupt practices of Reliance Communications and i wish you all the best in this endeavour to claim what is rightfully yours and i remind you again Maharshtra has very strong laws against extortion and a good lawyer can be vey handy in bringing the culprits to book.
