[Resolved]  Vodafone — Roaming services absolutely pathetic

I am a postpaid user in Mumbai. When I had been out of town, I could not find any Vodafone network there despite it being a fairly big town in Orissa (Bhadrak). All other major operators had their network there. However, when I tried connecting to one of the other networks, I kept getting a "No access" error. Customer care told me that they do not have a "tie-up" with other carriers in that area. Before leaving Mumbai, I had called up customer care to ensure that roaming services are available in Orissa and at no time did the rep hint on this "no tie-up" stuff.

More recently, a friend went abroad and got International Roaming activated (after paying a security deposit of Rs. 3000). However, on landing in Thailand, he found that he was in the same "no-access" situation. Repeated calls to customer care haven't solved anything. What is more irritating is that mails to corporate.[protected]@vodafone.com aren't answered. No one would expect such high-handedness from a respected company.

Now I wish Vodafone had never taken over Hutch. It has actually degraded the once wonderful service.

Dear Sir/ madam,
This complaint is to draw the attention of the so called "HAPPY TO HELP" at the store (staff members) towards the poor service of Vodafone Mumbai, Unprofessional Customer Care Executives.Boss.In India there are lot of telecom companies and I can go anywhere but I have been loyal to Vodafone and its time for Vodafone to show what they can do to retain me. The thing which makes other telecom providers different each other is not the plans and network coverage which they provide but it is the customer service which is not at good from your end.
I woud like to bring to your notice that inspite of submitting letter one month before, for the change of our group talk schemes to regular scheme (i. e. MYOP -Rs. 125/- rental), my group talk scheme has still not been deactivated.I had also submitted the letter to the Borivali (W) branch to Priya Madam on 27th.July 09 & had requested her to change the scheme from the next billing cycle (i.e. from 28th.August 09).I had also visited the same store one week before the billing cycle date to give a reminder & i was told by the senior personal that the scheme would be deactivated on the same day itself (i.e. 28th. Aug. 09) & that it will take 2 hours for the activation of new scheme plan.After that i visited the same store on the 28th. Aug. 09 to confirm the same but i was told that it will take 48 hours for the same.I had also called the head office nodal desk on the same day & i spoke to Manisha who told me that she will be discussing the matter & will revert back but till date she has not reverted back & our group talk scheme still has not been deactivated.Today i had called the 24 hours help line to confirm weather my plan has been changed or not but from there also i got rude answers as usual.
I will not be paying my next month bill unless my problem is solved.
The cell nos which are in group talk scheme are 1) [protected] (Sangita Bhende) & 2) [protected].

Dear Sir/Madam
My name is Dilip P. Vispute and my Vodafone mobile no. is [protected]. (MSEB CUG RS.149/-Plan)
Complaint 1) Many times i tried to pay bill on line with the help of net banking and debit card. But all attempts were futile. Our local Uran store center remain closed. I dislike/hate credit cards. How to pay bills? All other agencies like MTNL are very much convenient for bill payment. Advanced company like vodafone is not customer friendly in view of bill payment and service.
Complaint no. 2) I want add on card for my wife and son. I dialed phone to your representative Mr. Gnesh and Mr Sandesh But still we are waiting. Actually about 20 persons at GTPS MSEB Uran are waiting for add on cards.
Complaint no 3) Other service provider have drastically reduced tariff rate like 1 paisa/sec and on concession of CUG 1/2 paisa/sec But Vodafone is not yet reducing tariff. There is no economical CUG plan for local as well as STD. Give us such Plan
Truely yours
