[Resolved]  Vodafone — non-refund of amount

Address:New Delhi, Delhi

Vodafone provides provision to online prepaid recharge . So i tried recharging - selected talk time balance amountand gave Mobile Number to recharge and clicked on buy option.... i confirmed the transaction added my bank details and amount got deducted from my bank i.e payment was successful. (Rs. 145 -> i know amount is not much , but for talk time it is enough (who recharges for Rs.2000 for a month's recharge ?)

I was waiting for recharge amount to be added - the processing failed at Vodafone end and received an SMS from Vodafone with "reference number" stating they will refund money into my account within 5 working days.

This was dated 8th Apr and now its 20th Apr ...as you can see the amount is not refunded till date. Please help!

1) I called 198/111 to lodge complaint or followup , i informed them "reference number" which was messaged to me - > representative informed they can't lodge the complaint ( 198 is a complaint number please note) ... as they don't maintain a Database of reference number ( this reference number was sent by Vodafone please note) - neither they can inform technical team that processing failed and Mobile user have not received refund amount even after 5 working days.

2) On insistence i got a email id - vodafonecare [dot] del [at] vodafone [dot] com , this is again customer care email id , they acknowledged my request once i confirmed my email id through my mobile number. So i confirmed that details. Now i was awaiting for resolution.

Again they can't track back "reference number" , cause they don't have this info in their database.
Later they asked me to provide confirmation from bank -they confirmed that i haven't received refund amount and my transaction proof ( i provided that) - Vodafone agreed that they haven't refunded amount and apologized ( this was dated 17th Apr).

Now i felt , will finally receive my amount back - But NO Vodafone never refunded the amount.
Now they ask for Identify Proofs ( am a valid Mobile User , i confirmed my Email id through same number , they acknowledged my email id and responded back over email , i gave bank proofs on email they agreed on non-refund ) -Now Vodafone needs more proofs ?

Vodafone is unable to track back "reference number" in their database - and but they do send this "reference number" to customer ..why ? to track back na ? whats the use ? Vodafone does not maintain it

Now i feel harassed by Vodafone side and after all the proofs and acknowledgement - reality is my amount is not refunded ..
they are frauds and thief .... don't pay back people (non-refund of amount) neither give them service ( neither they recharged my talk time balance ) ..and neither can lodge complains (198 does not report incidents for reconciliation of outstanding balance ).

I now doubt their intentions and have thought of changing the service provider.
If you can help refund amount please help.

Vodafone no — Refunding amount

Hi,

Actually, i have paid my mobile bill through my ICICI Credit card, i have typed all required information in mobile while paying bill. At the end will ask for how much amount would you like to pay? 450/- Rs i have typed but how much it was deducted u know..4550/- Rs, after that i have called Vodafone customer care , it's been wrongly updated , can u refund it back that amount but what they told u know...they took complaint and told will be refund it back after 2 days...so i thought it's going to refund but after 2 days , i have called once again for confirm...what they told u know...there is no procedure is there in Vodefone itself....this is worst customer care center in this world...playing like anything...nonsense....plq be aware of paying ur bill through credit card...thanks

Vodafone — not refunding my account

I vinay parker Vodaphone prepaid no.[protected] have applied this number to convert it into postpaid through an agency of vodaphone named S.K. Marketing, but my request has been rejected due to over writing on the I.D. proof.

I have told the executives of S.K. marketing that please return my amount of Rs. 350 which I have given them to activate.

Since connection is rejected & not activated and it’s been nearly a month when the person from S.K. marketing taken the amount from me, even after I have personally visited there office 3 times, they are not refunding my amount.

So please consider my request to take a proper action against them so that I can get my amount back.

S K marketing.Very pathetic and unprofessional services these guys are offering. They took money from me two weeks back and still my new no is not activated. Now from past 1 week none of the guys are not picking up my call. including their owner. The no published on this website also not picking up the call. Seems they all are fraudster.

Went through mental harrasment from these bunch of loosers. Initially they are begging me to took new no and now all are disapeared. Please beaware from them. Useless fellows
