This complaint is on lapse of Vodafone and its officials in providing information to customers, and suspending services on customer's number without any prior information. "Unhappy to help" attitude. My phone service was suddenly suspended without any prior information. On approaching the Vodafone store at Naraina vihar branch, the store supervisor mr Sandeep refused to provide information on why and on whose instruction the...

I just tried the codes for the internet package when i tried *157# suddenly I got the message from the vodafone company and my balance 30 Rs deducted.
I called to executive but he did not solve my problem and he told me that i will not get back money which is deducted from my balance.
Please help customer for future that if customer try any code it should not be suddenly activated any service and deduct balance. Before service activate please send a confirmation sms for the activate service that customer would like to activate service yes or no.

I am Mithun Maitri. I am using vodafone postpaid card since 3-4 years. just I have purchased one new vodafone postpaid number with silver 249 rental plan. It offers me 500 min, 200 sms & 500 MB 2g gprs free.

Yesterday has generated the monthly bill of 3000/- I am surprised by this much of bill then I walk thru the bill. In bill showing the gprs usage has exceeded by 400 Mb that I haven't used any more then I requested the detailed log of GPRS for analyse but vodafone team can't support me into this.

I spend my two days to take the followup but they are providing the worst class service to me and they are directly avoiding my request So I need your help. Consider my humble request and I am expecting justice ASAP.

Either vodafone provide me the detailed log or subtract the extra gprs usage amount in the bill amount.

For more details plz mail me to mithun.[protected]@gmail.com

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

its been 4 days i migrated from prepaid to postpaid. I keep on getting messages from Vodafone saying this that service has been activated on your number and mind you without me doing it. I call customer care and spends minutes talking to them, on which they are charging me, in the end they ask me to log in to their website.

Each time i try to log in to their website, i get server error, try agian. and this has been happening no matter you log in @ 2am or 2pm.

I have know idea how my bill went from Rs 0 to Rs. 202. I have no source to find out what all services have been activate.

I just want to bring it to everyones concern what a bussiness vodafone is doing.

I have been trying to get Vodafone to change the plan on one of our numbers ([protected]) to the 299 Per Sec plan which is listed on their website.

When I spoke to customer service initially around Mar 6th they told me that the request has been taken and the plan will be changed along with some of the other changes that I requested wihin 4 hours.

I spoke to them the next morning and they told me that one of the changes was made and they flatly denied any other change requests. They canceled the 0.50 paise STD along plan which would not have been necessary had I moved to the new plan.

I requested them to listen to the recorded conversation assuming that they have one and they asked me to specify the changes. After I specified them they said that the plan I was requesting was not a normal plan (whatever that means) and that I should goto the Vodafone store. I asked them to reactivate the 50 paise STD plan in the mean time so that I dont may extra for STD. For this they wanted to change me the full cost of the plan and not pro ratta. This was a way of making additional money while I waited for my plan to be changed.

I thought that going to the store was highly irregular but I sent my person there. They said that since this is in the name of a company please email corporate care from a company email id. I got this done.

They got back with a cryptic mail about contacting our relationship manager. We emailed back asking for contact details of this unknown relationship manager who never bothered contacting us or making him self known in someway.

They gave as an email address and no phone number for this manager. We emailed him on friday and have not received an acknowledgement forget a plan change.

I cannot believe that I have to jump through so many hoops to get my plan change. This is highly un ethical behavior.

I had problems with Vodafone 2 months ago as well during a port.

I think that their customer service which was the best in the industry not one year ago has become very very poor.

Hi,

Please go through the trail mail for comple info. In brief :- I also had raised complaint with appellate.[protected]@vodafone.com and from there I was requested to pay INR500/- only and they assured me the disputed amount would get reversed in next billing cycly which didnt happen and they also charged late payment fee. When I called today(20Mar130 to Mr Kunal ([protected] -officer appellate) for clarification he simply denied for any such commitment for reversal of amount.

They confirmed every thing in telephonic conversation with me on/after 22Feb2013 before this I was also exchanging mail with them.

Thanks,

Respected Sir/Madam,

Please go through the trail mail, I have been raising my issues with vodafone through mail but every time they are just coping and pasting the same revert that they replied in the first mail, it is rediculous...



Can you please help me out with this:-





I have been using vodofone postpaid services ([protected]) for couple of years.



1) On 16Feb2013 I got to know that my amount due for the current bill period was INR 706.74/- which was very unusual because usually it remains around 200/-.



2) when I raised a query with customer care (Vodafone) and also got e-bill statement on 18Feb2013 I found that INR 448.31/- (399+S.Tax) was additional charged againstBlackBerry Prosumer ULD 399 (15.02.13 to 14.03.13) which I never used.




3) I raised the query with customer care (Vodafone) many times till 19Feb2013 and asked them to waive off the over charged amount (INR 448.31) in the same billing period and I was also ready to pay the balance due (INR 258.43) on the very same day which they simply rejected.



4) Therefor I decided to switch to new service provider and requested for PORT on 19Feb13 evening.



5) Again I called their call center on 20Feb13 to resolve the issue but found no positive response.



6) then I asked them to stop services with immdiate effect and told them to get me the full/final settlement, so that i can pay off by today evening (20Feb2013), but again they simply denied to do it.



7) They started blackmailing me having said that I had to pay the entire billing amount (INR 706.74/-) by 20Feb13 (Due Date 05.03.13), else they will reject my PORT request which I need to switch to other service provider.







8) I am ready to pay the billing amount (excluding over charged amount) or even full/final settlement amount by today evening so that i can switch to other mobile service provider.





Please assist me to resolve this issue or suggest me how can I approach to Consumer Court for this.



Thanks,

Manish Sharma

Dear Preeti,



Greetings!!!



with reference to trail, please find my comment below:-



1) BB Prosumer service:- When I did not raise any request for this, why this was activated in my account. I never wanted this and never used this service. I am using your post paid plan which means the bill should be raised in the next month but BB Prosumer Rental was raised in advance, Why? (i.e.the paid service started from 15Feb13)



2) Post Deactivation of the Plan:- Yes, please deactive this plan, if this is still active in my account as I have already raised so many request/queries for the deactivation of the plan.



Please do let me know, as I want to pay only the actual usage amount (INR 258,43) now and the remaining disputed balance (INR 448.31) can be adjusted in the next billing cycle.



3) Calling/SMS - I have never raised any query against calling details or SMS usages, therefor I am not doubting on your integrity or reliability.



My only concern is all about the BBP service that was activated in my account which i never wanted and asking for advance rental of the services which i never used.

4) wish to Port out - I called so many times to your call center to resolve this issue but never got any positive feedback from their end and observed that they never wanted to retain their old customer. Therefor I decided switch to and it would be great if you could help me out for this as I am ready to pay all the actual usage amount till dated excluding disputed balance (INR 448.31).



Looking for a positive response from your end and thank you very much for your kind revert.





Thanks,

Manish Sharma

The one of the worst network providers is Vodafone, People pls dont go for use Vodafone network. They always cheating people who are trust them.

Hi,

I have bought a Vodafone SIM card from Bangalore on 16/Mar/2013, and the Vodafone dealer told me that I have to pay Rs 50 for the SIMCARD. I checked the prepaid pack and noticed that the cost of the SIM is Rs 10, asked about this to the Vodafone Dealer. He says that i will get 35 Rs for 20 Rs talktime. I called up customer care and found that Rs 20 talk time offered by Vodafone and not by the dealer. So the dealer is the trying to cheat the customers by giving false information.

And also the Vodafone dealer promised me that the SIM will be activated by Monday evening (18/Mar/2013), now its almost 3 days over and the card has NOT been activated, called Customer Care multiple times and there were not able to give a proper answer as to why the SIM has not yet been activated!.

Not sure why the trusted Vodafone Dealer cheats their customers with false promises and Vodafone customer care not even able to answer as to why the SIM card has not been activated yet OR they were not able to tell when will be the card be activated!.

Its a competitive world, and vodafone does not want to be genuine to the customer who trusts their services.

Totally dis-appointed and am gonna look for some other service provider who can provide a better service.

Just writing this on a good will that people like me should not get cheated by the Vodafone Dealer.

Thanks,
Kumar

I have been using CLIR facility since almost 3 yrs and above....Now we have received that you need NOC from SP or above rank to continue the same services.

We have never ever in life gone to the local police station , its but obvious that these high ranked people would be not knowing us personally.

Now how is it possible for some one who doesn't know us would sign on a piece of paper stating that i Know the person 'XYZ' personally.?? The Police officers are 100% correct at their place as to why would some one write and sign for a un-known person.

If you ask to sign it from a local police station then its acceptable that these people would be knowing us as we stay there, but the High Ranked Officers stay at the District Head quarters...and its but obvious that they will no be knowing us if we haven't been in touch with them at any point of time in life.

But our issue is that, if they are not knowing us personally... cant we utilize the CLIR services

Plz do something genuine to get over this problem.

Vodafone seems to have the intent of fooling money from customers in it's GPRS service. First of all, it gives a very ambiguous prompt to mislead consumers into auto-renewal of it's GPRS service. I have been a victim of that. And now that I want to deactivate it, they sent me a text saying "Fro deactivatin auto-renewal please dial *121*0*98, which when I dial, I get the response "You may not make calls to the dialed number".

Very bad ethics, I'm sure millions like me are a victim of their practices but are helpless.

I purchased a vodafone 3G data card(model - K3770) a month back and paid 3 montsh of advanced rent- 1950/- for this. Device worked fine for 12-13 days and problem started. Every 3-4 minutes it gets disconnected automatically and you need to rec-connect. Due to this the work gets lost if you are in mid of something.

I registered a complaint with vodafone (complain no- [protected]) and got 7 days of time for them to get back to me. This 7 days converted into 22 days approx and still no solution for this. I mailed too but there is no satisfactory response from their side. The only reply I get is wait for 7 more days. Vodafone is sucking people's hard earned money.
