Hi Victims of Tikona Fraud Model :
I intend to share this for the future fellow victims of TIKONA. If you have taken TIKONA you have already stepped into the TRAP. Tikona has a hardened fraud model to extort from it departing customers.
If you are going for a disconnection please note the below points :
1. Raise disconnection request well ahead 1 month of your bill-cycle end date.(though TRAI directs disconnection within 7 days/ but who cares for TRAI when even TRAI doesn’t care)
2. Speed Post written mail(hard copy, signed) to mumbai-Tikona headoffice (I am not sure how much a electronic mail is held valid in court)
3. Send the same signed mail in FAX to TIKONA(keep the fax receipt)
4. Obviously you will send electronic mail request for disconnection ( but they won’t respond & confirm to that in anyway)
5. Understand the actual trap now: Disconnection in Tikona does not mean deactivation of your user-id. And Tikona mentions that it can charge you on your user-id after disconnection based on further usage. Now How will you deny further Usage & prove non-usage ? Very Tough !
6. Hence only option (if you want prove non-usage in court) – Return the Tikona Device asap before the end of your bill-cycle
7. Now this is the tough part : Customer Care will talk all the non-sense things, will irritate you infinite times, and tell you all the false stories (like device is free/tikona doesn’t collect device/transfer the connection); DO NOT & DO NOT TRUST THE CUSTOMER CARE.
8. YOU NEED TO RETURN THE DEVICE AND COLLECT RECEIPT IN TIKONA LETTERPAD with dates before the end of bill-cycle, Keep photo id proof of the device collector.
9. Mail the soft-copy of the receipt to TIKONA again, and ask them to disconnect & deactivate.
10. After this happens, and after another 3-4 calls + 2 weeks you might receive FULL & FINAL settlement letter from TIKONA.
11. For me I fought hard for 20 days, posted in all consumer forums, and gone mad by no-response stand + false promises from customer care. The customer care will never ever confirm your request on mail. So do not trust whatever they say.
12. I have learned from the trend that the customer care is well trained & instructed to exactly follow the FRAUD/TRAPPING MODEL, it can not happen by mistake or by chance.
13. After all this also if one gets a Fraud bill, one can atleast raise a case against TIKONA, instead of TIKONA scaring the INDIAN citizens with all cheat advocate calls from the INDIAN CAPITAL DELHI.
14. So gist -> Speed Post Mail+Fax+email -> Return Device before end of bill cycle -> Keep receipt+collector ID+video(if you can) -> post in consumer forums -> Fight with customer care -> BLAME YOURSELF FOR TAKING TIKONA WITHOUT SEEING REVIEW
