I got a message from vi stating thank you for downloading carban_game from carbun8. When i talked to their customer care, they said it cant be refunded. I am an it engineer and i am well aware of the things i download. This is really pathetic service from their side. Will not recommend this company to anyone!

    Address: Sri Rajesh Thakur, Village Vijaypur, P.O. Kanp, Sour Bazar, Saharsa, Bihar

    Dear vodafone,
    I rajesh thakur, did the transaction of rs.20, 000/- using phonepe app through my cell number [protected] to cell number [protected] to a unknown number by mistake on 26/08/2020 at 11:45am. Now, i went to bank for knowing the account number's details and his address to approach. But, unfortunately i couldn't receive any information from the state bank of india kanp branch, sour bazar saharsa (A/c no. [protected]).
    Presently, the phone number says not in use, hence i recharged the phone by rs.49 on 26/08/2020 from my same phonepe number to talk to the concerned person. But still his number says phone not in use.
    Hence, will it be possible for you to provide me the local address of the vodafone number [protected] address details, so that i can contact the person and request him to give me the rs.20, 000/- which mistakenly i credited him in his acoount.
    I would be thankful to you for your kind help.
    Regards.

    Rajesh thakur.

      I didn't do anything, i don't even use this sim much. Still my balance is deducted. I asked the consumer executive, he's not able to help me.

        I received a msg as below on 14th sept, 2020.

        "hello!
        Thank you for downloading carban_game from carbun8.
        You have been charged rs. 15
        Your balance is rs. 37.63"

        I neither did any service activation nor downloaded any game as mentioned.

        When i called customer care representative he told me that such transaction is not showing to us so we can not do anything. Now how can i get my money back?

        This type of deduction is also happened in past but now it is very frequent, my account was also deducted one month before for some other value added services.

        Please care for your customers otherwise customer will not care for you.

        And yes i wanty 15rs. Back.

        Thank you.

        Dear Customer,

        As per our records the deduction was done for a PPU i.e, pay per use service which is only deducted when some kind of services is used by customer on their consent. Hence, We are unable to provide refund for the used service. If you are not satisfied with the response you can write us on [protected]@vodafoneidea.com for further assistance.

            Hi All,

            I am struggling big time to reach the right team to get this issue reported; leave aside resolved.

            Simplest of request; whenever someone using vodafone tries to call me he gets a message that my number is out of coverage area or not reachable however when other network users are calling me it gets connected.

            Please have someone call me and get it resolved.

            Note : I have tried to connect with the help line multiple times however i just could not reach; please get this looked into ASAP.

            Thanks !!

              Address: Vodafone Idea Ltd (www.Vi.in)

              I had an Idea post paid connection, for which I have paid the dues of Rs. 1000/ on 24th August, they told fine of rs.600/- will be waived, but the Rs, 1000/ amount went online to my other number account. They asked again the amount, for which I replied it should be reverted to this Idea number, but they insisted me to go to nearby Vodafone store (request no. 3-[protected], Vodafone Store, Naraina Vihar N Delhi-28), and request for deactivation. I gave the request in the nearby store, then paid the rest amount Rs.601/ also on 9th Sept 2020 online. Again they have sent the bill of Rs, 178/- and I didnt get any terminal voucher. They should not charge me for inactive period of the mobile phone [protected]. Despite I am contacting their customer care number and whatsapp, no satisfactory explanation is given.
              Plz see the issue to settle.
              Thanks.

                  Firstly, vodafone is unable to provide me solution regarding the problem with their system that they have generated wrong bill. And are overcharging me. Their system is telling me on 31/08/2020 that i have 10 gb data remaining and my usage from 1/9/2020 to 3/9/2020 is 8gb roughly. Also they are not emailing me the request number information.

                          I paid a security deposit of 10, 000/- to activate the international roaming and I have the receipt just in case.

                          I deactivated it almost a year ago but they have not returned the money yet.

                          Finally, I got tired of complaining and writing emails and asked them to shut down my connection but they won't do that either.

                            Vodafone is charging from main balance though we have bought valid unlimited package. Always ends that out of main balance and no call is allowed. Once we charge main balance again they do the same. The helpline are not o[censored]se and hard to get the executive to expatiation. Even if get they do not provide details of the billing.
                            If wants to raise complaint they says no option for it and will consider it as suggestion only.

                              An amount of Rs 22/- has been deducted from the main balance of my account. When I checked my Message Inbox, I noticed that I have received an SMS from VZ-ViCMS regarding the download of FUN PORTAL from CARBUN8. PLease note that I have not downloaded any application from the said page or website.
                              I spoke to the Customer Care executive, but they were telling that this was a third party application and not the problem of Idea. In spite of informing them that such a complaint was raised by many Vodafone Idea customers they were adamant saying that it is the mistake of the customers and not the company. The executive mentioned that all those customers whose money was debited might have downloaded some application and also to contact the handset customer care number.

                              Your reliability is coming DOWN day-by-day.

                              I had already complained previously of amount getting deducted, without any transaction / sms / app download.

                              Now, VZ-Vicms have deducted amount from my main balance.
                              What's happening Vodafone team?

                              I also have faced the same issue. Did a recharge of 50 rupees for straight balance and got this msg within hours of recharging. At this point I think there is no point in fighting for the refund and just avoid using Vodafone for outgoing services. The repo that vodafone had 3 years ago has turned on itself and become a stealer from a begger. That's what JIO has made Vodafone. I don't care much about the money but watching the industry leaders of one era stealing money from customers for survival just cracks me up. Kudos to JIO and keep demolishing theif like vodafone.

                              I have same kind of experience. Just matter of setting volume they charge me around 49 rupee same message as below.

                              Hello!
                              Thank you for choosing to access startalk, you have been charged Rs. 49

                              This is really a stupid ...
                              Aah! Same for me today. Got message from VICMS "Thank you for choosing to access Tambola, you have been charged Rs. 49". What the hell is this, can any one help here?
                              They took Rs.99 from main balance for 3rd time. It is irritating.

                              I am facing the similar issue. Balance deductions without subscribing to any or all of the services in these texts. What’s going on Vodafone? Too many people now; this cannot be a coincidence. Please do something about this or I will have to move to another mobile service provider

                                    I had done recharge on 28th August 2020 for rs 39, the amount was credited with some concerns and after a complaint was already raised.

                                    Now I get to know that I have no balance, on checking with the customer care. I get to know that some value added services has caused the deduction. I was not even informed of this by any means nor was I aware of it.

                                    I have not applied for any value added service nor was I notified of any sorts of activation what so ever.

                                    On calling the customer care to raise a complaint, I just get irresponsible responses and people have even hung up on me and some have put me on hold and have disconnected the call.

                                    On calling the customer care today. I got the below message that the deduction was done on 28th, but I have not got any message related to this ever before.

                                    I spoke to madhu who claims to be the floor manager, only response I get from him is that it cannot be refunded. Initially he tells that the deduction was done on 7th September. And when I told him that the previous person told that it was deducted on aug 28th. He changed his statement and continued to tell that nothing can be done.

                                    THERE WAS NO ACKNOWLEDGMENT NOR WAS THERE ANY ACTIVATION DONE FROM MY END.

                                      I have ported out from vodafone idea on 7th sep and paid bill in advance. I got message that my no will be ported out on 9th sep. Till now vodafone is not closing my no and threatening to pay bill till 15th sep. They said if i donot pay bill till 15th they will not allow me to port out and cancel my request. Last 6 months i m complaining about network and internet issue but falling on deaf years. Just now their executive madhu and akhilesh said untill i dont pay bill till 15th they will not process my request to port out as company must have profit.
                                      Pathetic service and pathetic customer care. Location mohali punjab
