[Resolved]  Vodafone — Overbilling

I had a VODAFONE connection - number [protected]. During my trip abraod to Turkey - I was charged an internet usage charge of Rs 17K - stating that there was more than an hour's usage of internet from the mobile handset - whihc is very unlikely. Moreover the company had set a credit limit of Rs 3000 - then how did the over billing happen - till date there is no explanation to the same.

On receipt fo the bill, i disputed the amount and paid the remaining amount under protest. I was informed that necessary checking would be done - thereafter i was informed that the charges appear correct - i disputed the same and told the company that I shall pay the bill amount over and above the Rs 17 - overcharge. Without any intimation to me, the mobile number was disconnected and till date there is no proper response from the company on this issue

The approach is very unprofessional and for system lapses at thier end - they are penalizing cusotmers and disconnecting number - the number was in use for a long time and the abrupt disconnection has resulted in lot of difficulty and even financial loss.

This is not at all acceptable.

I hve been using vodafone postpaid connection since june 2007 and my plan is 444 under which i am entitled to 444 local-sms and 444 minutes of local/STD calls free per month. Everything was going smooth till December 2007 and suddenly on the 5th of January 2008 they send me a sms indicating some peak day sms charges. I receievd the January bill generated on the 6th of january 2008 they put Rs 142.10/- as Misc credit/ charges. when enquired about the same multiple times I was informed that these are sms charges for the sms I made on the 31st of December 2007 and on the Dipawali. i complained that I was not informed about any such charge neither when I took the connection nor before the charges were imposed. And then vodafone cannot impose any financial liability for any anything with my/ customer's consent. Ever since I have been regularly charged for sms as follows:
Rs 2.80/- in the month of February 2008, Rs 4.80/- in the month of march 2008 and Rs 4.40/- in the month of april 2008.
this is a total voilation of TRAI rules and regulations. i therefore would request you to intervene and save many customers like me from this harassment.
thank you.

vodafone bills — charging international rates for local sms

I have been charged at the rate of Rs5/ per sms .. which is an international sms rate for the local number .. and after repeated wriiten complaints to Vodaphone nothing has been done ... the only plea they give is that since I have used "00" for local number thats why charges have been made ...
But is that logical ..
When i mailed Vodafone, they informed these are the days, sms are charged.
