        On 31 August 2020 15:34 and 10th November 2020 18:06 I had received a message from a number 55435 saying Rs.25 had been deducted. Prior to this message I recieved a link to a game on game fun. I had never authorized or agreed to pay for this. Please refund the amount back to my current balance and take some measures so that this does not repeat again. It has already happened twice and I am not willing to take this chance again.

            As soon as someone is dialing my number, it automatically gets disconnected even without placing call .
            Please look into this as soon as possible as I'm not able to receive calls

                It's been months since I got a new sim instead of my old one as I got my sim card activated, yet the sim is not working. The customer care said that it will be resolved in few days but it's November now and I complained in around August. Still no progress, nowadays, phone numbers are linked everywhere thus it is such a damn hindrance in our lives.

                                I didn't click on any link and i got charged with 15rs. This is not the first time they have charged unfairly. Please take necessary action and refund my money.
