Hi,
I recharged on mobile number : [protected] , and payment was done using netbanking of HDFC.
After confirming the payment screen on HDFC the ccavenue confirmation page kept on loading and i was not directed to FREECHARGE confirmation page.
The amount was deducted from my account , also the recharge status is not shown in my freecharge account under MYORDER tab.
Details of the mini statement :

Hi My name is Alex. I had got know about this freecharge.in on net. They say to give shopping coupons for the recharge amount we do in their site. For example, If we recharge with 350 then they will send coupons worth Rs 350 to our mailing address. They charge Rs 10 extra for the same.
One fine day I recharged my mobile from their site for Rs 350, Then they said me to pay Rs 360, Rs 10 extra for courier charges. and according to their site we should recieve the coupons maximum by 7 days. But this never happened.. It has been almost 20 days but i dint recieve the coupon. They customer care is not good. On their site they have customer support , i posted my complaint there, They said that they will send.. but still i have not recieved.... i posted my complaint again on their site.. now they have stopped replying me. and have banned me from posting any complaints... Please help me!

Hi ,

I am Prasun Banerjee.My complain is against a website named freecharge.in.They are running a business saying that they will provide coupon of same amount on every mobile recharge.I madee a recharge of 60 from this site and they deducted 60+10(delivery charge for coupon).I selected a 50 rs coupon from dominos and a 50 rs coupon from Mcdownalds because as per the rule on recharge amount 51-100 coupon value is 100.I made a payment using SBI netbanking.The trancaction ID is IG58670415.I got another transaction ID from same company i.e.[protected].
After the transaction was made I got an error message saying that the amout entered by me is invalid where as I got the recharge plan from the network website(docomo) itself.Here goes the link.http://www.tatadocomo.com/prepay-packs.aspx#disTextdump.
Please look at talktime voucher tab and find 60 rs recharge.

Please take stern action against the site freecharge.in.They have not even given any customer care number in their website so that I can call and confirm.

I made two on line recharge amounting to Rs 111 and Rs 520 on dated18.06.2011 and 20.06.2011.due to problems known to www. freecharge.in the transaction could not be completed however the money was deducted from my account. As per their e mail they have refunded the amount to my bank account and the same should have been reflected in my account in 7 working days.On my enquiry from bank today on dated 4.07.2011 they have not received any refund from freechaege.in .It is therefore requested that the matter may please be got resolved.MY EMAIL ID Is ashokjuneja.[protected]@gmail.com

http://www.freecharge.in/ invite people to get their mobile recharged through their website and in turn promise to provide free coupons of same amount. The take Rs 10/- extra for sending the coupons through courier.
I recharged my Mobile(Service Provider: Idea) for Rs 350/- on 12th of july 2011. The SLA is that the consumer would get the free coupons within the next 7 days.
Its been 18 days now i haven't got my free coupons yet. I have posted on their my complaint so many times on their customer support section but to no avail.
Attached is the screenshot you of their customer support section.
Can anybody tell me how to escalate it as they do not have any support contact number mentioned anywhere on their site.

Hi

I have recharged my mobile balance through freecharge site. They assured me that they will be delivering gift vouchers worth of the recharge amount. I have recharged for 333 on june 6 and paid additional 10 for delivery charges. But still I have not recieved any gift coupons.

I believe these could be some kind of fake promotional offers to lure the customers to recharge mobile prepaid account balance through their site and finally you will end up with paying extra bucks for the gift coupon delivery charges.

Even one of my Friend had similar experience with "Freecharge".

i have been charged rs.150(recharge)+rs10 (courier charges) for mobile number [protected] but my mobile number is not charged due to transaction failure and the amount rs.160 is charged from my bank.
i want my refund of rs.160 in my bank account as soon as possible.
