[Resolved]  Vodafone - Kerala — SIM deactivated, bad customer care

I was using this number [protected] from more than an year. This was having lifetime validity. I last switched it on in October 2009 when I went to kerala. When I switched it on in March, I see that it wasn't registering. On calling customer care from another phone, they advised me to recharge it for Rs. 200. Recharging didn't help though. Later from Vodafone store I learnt that this sim is deactivated in January and has been allocated to another person. Customer care should confirm the name before advising to recharge. I called customer care again after that. They said the number is free and i can get it back if I go to any Vodafone shop in kerala. Next time I call customer care, I was told the number is allocated to some other customer.
1. SIM being deactivated if not used for 60 days is not acceptable for a sim with lifetime validity. This doesn't make any sense. Customers can have foreign trips for coupla months. 60 days is too short. No other operator other than Vodafone does this.
2. Customer care executives talking to customers should have proper information about whatever they are talking about. They dont even seem speak or understand english properly. Their mistakes make customers loose money. Keeping untrained executives to talk to customers is not expected.

I'm also afraid that some vodafone employees might be involved in selling these numbers to anti-social elements for quick bucks. So, another purpose of this complaint is to make sure I dont get into trouble.

VODAFONE - please look into this ASAP. Here are the details you might require:

Vodafone Essar — Unnecessary deactivation of Vodafone No.

Dear Sir,

I would like to inform you that, I have been using the Vodafone no. [protected] since 2004 (Prepaid). I am happy with the service, but from last 2 month facing the problem for untimely deactivation of my no., many time called to your customer care and got assurance for action with in 24 hrs. but revert is nill.

The attitude towards the customer is very disappointing.

kindly look into matter and arrange to restart my no. ASAP.

Will look forward for your prompt action.

With Regards
Sharifuddin

Vodafone SIM — Poor customer service by Vodafone

After using Vodafone postpaid services for 3.5 years,I have migrated to prepaid which has now became a headache for me. Every second day the incoming/outgoings are blocked citing some reasons, I have submitted my documents twice , everytime with a confirmation that now you won't face any problems as the documents are as per security norms. As a responsible citizen of the country, I am aware of the security concerns added with a prepaid connections and thats why visited the store again and again and submitted my documents and got the confirmation from the store supervisor (vashi) that everything in place. Still I am facing the same problem. The IVR 111 is giving all info on product and services but is not connecting me to the customer care. Is this the free pain package of vodafone to pre paid customers. I am fully frustated by this , as such thing is not expected from an esteemed and leading service provider as Vodafone. I am missing out on some important business calls, and for that again I have to leave my office and search for a vodafone store to get this done.

my vodafone sim not working [protected] two sim one number pls chek
I have a verry bad experience with vodafone service providers.Some months back i took a vodafone connection from a local shop in ernakulam. After 2 days all the callls were barred, i called upto customer care then they responded that they havnt got my identification proof and photo yet .When i took the sim i had dulyfilled the form, and gave my documents and photo and the shopkeeper told me he handed over those documents to the local dealer to submit in the vodafone centre.If so why its not reched there . I asked in the vodafone office in palarivattom, they asked me to give another proof. They dont have any control over their staffs, i can under stand that i have to give another proof, if its missing .But dont i have the right to know what happened with my previous documents.A persons documents are highly taken care of as it can be misused by others .And more over its not a new thing that local dealers working in collaboration with terrorism and sex racket, where they take fraud sim and finally landing innocent people into trouble .When we went to the office, we saw many people come with same problems, and vodafone office staffs were asking to submit another documents .My question is this if many people come with a complaint like missing documents and photo the office staffs dont have any interest to know where the problem exists and how to solve it .Is this called as the customer care service by vodafone company .Shame on you.
Dear Vivian

Vodafone is committed to deliver high class customer service.

Your problem was not happened the mistake of Vodafone Essar Company .

You have taken connection from Local shop not from Vodafone store, Generally a retailer can activate the sim card immediately when customer submit their proof and Photograph . What I want to say you that your Documents and Pic might be lost from the retail shop or from the agent .

If you think, any staff of Vodafone store behaving customer without etiquette, you can drop a mail to Vodafone Essar Pvt Ltd, Ashish Building, Shanmugam Road, Kochi
i am ASHIQUE, I have two numbers, [protected], [protected]. i cant call to costemer care from this two numbers, pls help me

Vodafone — lousy customer care

I took the vodafone connect in feb 2010. In the past one year i have complained several time regarding no network inside my house. Nothing was done. I waited for number portability and now it has come i went to airtel to port my number and they asked me to pay the outstanding amount. I went promptly and checked with them and paid the money after they deducted the deposit i had given during taking the connection. But when i sent the port request, they deduct telling me that the amount is not paid. I contacted the customer care and they tell me that the caution deposit will be given only after the connection is moved to airtel. But again i went to vodafone office and somehow they told me that it has been adjusted and now i should go to airtel and again resubmit the bill.

I am going on vacation and this is really made me depressed

such is a state of customer support here. They take customers for granted and this is the worst experience .
