Hathway Cable & Datacom — extortion

Hi, i got a call from this no. ‭+[protected]‬ Some days before that some case has filed against me in maharashtra court which was forwarded to delhi court by some private company situated in my city. I searched on google this no. and found on forum that this call was fake. So i didnt respond to that. Today[protected] i got a call from a person name hemant saxena ‭+[protected]‬. He yelled at me first. Then he said im gonna forward your case in delhi high court given by hathway within one hour if you dont pay the bill. So i called at my regional hathway office. The lady from office said, yes from hathway delhi, cases are being filed. I asked hear why any warning wasnt given. She said you have to come in office we have special dept for that. I went to office and asked her where is legal dept. she directed me towards payment counter and said he handles this. And i asked him why wasnt i informed and that person mf says nothing and askes me the hathway acc no. for payment. I knew they all were bluffing some kind of mili bhagat. But i had no time to prove their bluffing as i was given only 1 hour to pay. I called that hemant saxena again to ask some questions. He said dont waste my time and threatened me to pay money otherwise im forwarding the case to delhi high court within half hour. I had no choice but pay the amount. And he specifically mentioned to pay online. I paid on hathway office instead and asked to terminate my connection permanently. I took a receipt of disconnection and gave receipt no. To the saxena person. And he said thankyou in return. Why would a person from high court say thankyou like i paid him instead of hathway. Some kind of big sham by hathway. I also found out that hathway got a disconnection notice from indiacast media early this year. I took my connection in 2015 and i stopped using after 2016. During that period they charged me extra but i had proper usage calculations and explained them that you charged me extra so they reduced some 500-800 rs. later i found out that they still charged some amount extra. I wished i could have went to nearby lawyer when i got the first call some days before. If this happens to anyone out there please consult to your family lawyer before acting anything. Thanks
