[Resolved]  Vodafone — Vodafone is Forcing VASE on customers

During time period 18 September 2010 & 26 September 2010 Vodafone with out my permission charged for VAS services and Caller tune not once/twice but thrice. This was even after i made clear after first instance itself that please don't cut charges for VAS services as i have not requested them.

I emailed them. but to no avail. I am in Ahmedabad and that number is roaming - so i always require enough balance to ensure that i can receive important calls on my Number.

First day my prepaid phone number was charged for 15 and same was deducted from my account. I sent an SMS for deactivating the service, but on Sunday, 19th Sep Rs 30 was again deducted from prepaid balance and i had again deactivated the service. i wrote email to Vodafone that this is totally unethical.
This was my mail to Vodafone on 18th Sep -
"You cannot force customers on any value added services and deduct amount from their prepaid balance.
Please stop this, before it gets worse - it looks a very cheap way of doing business.
I hope, i am not again charged for this cricket service or any VAS with out my permission or willingness."


But again on 26 Sep Vodafone cut amount from my prepaid balance without my permission or willingness
I again wrote Vodafone a mail
"With whose permission you force the caller tunes and other services on customers??? You must doing this to millions o[censored]sers and generating a huge unethical way of revenue generation.
I warned you last week for unnecessary deductions for cricket score updates - which was done twice and you haven't even replied to my mail. Today the caller tune was set without my permission and charges deducted. Your Mumbai customer care is pathetic as no is picking up the phone.
I guess, now the time is to drag vodafone legally"

I am pretty much sure this kind of things is being done to millions o[censored]sers - imagine the revenue Vodaone must be generating via such illegal methods.
