[Resolved]  Vodafone — auto deduct from account balance in the name of "carbun_game", which is totally something not requested

On august 5th 2020, i received an sms saying,

"dear customer, thank you for downloading carban_game from carbun8. You have been charged rs. 15."

It was said third party download happened when contacted customer care and said cannot do refund. I am 100% sure that i didn't download anything related to such and customer care person is not at all accepting. How come this has happened without my knowledge?

This is not the first time that vodafone has deducted money from my account balance for unsolicited services.

I see its happening as common problem for many people, eating away ones account balance and then customer care just saying "third party content download, cannot do refund". Please have at-least the process to do the refund in these cases, when a person gives all the proof for not downloading such content and please please be customer friendly.

Other suggestion - please work to improve your service and stop/block these third party download by default itself.

Thanks

Even I had the same issue this morning. I call the customer care and they gave me a very vague reason that doesn't make much sense. How can someone deduct money without consent from the user. This is not acceptable. I'm very disappointed with Vodafone India.
