Dear Sir,

I am a Vodafone Prepaid Customer in Kolkata (Prepaid Mbl No:[protected]).
Y/day evening I got one messages from Vodafone that “as your request vodafone International Match Day”,service has been activated, per day Rs 5/- will be charged as service rental …………..”& they deducted Rs.5/- from my mobile’s account. But I didn't made any request for this so called service “International Match Day”, Then I spoke to your customer service number about this matter they advice me please register your phone as “DND (Don’t disturb) reg Group”, also they advice if you didn’t like this service pl. write a msg “CAN IMD” & send to 144. I done all as they told like DND Registration & Msg for cancelation service.

Today evening I also get one another messages from Vodafone that “as your request vodafone Daily value Combo Service has been activated, per day Rs 2/- will be charged as service rental …………..”& they deducted Rs.2/- from my mobile’s account. But I didn't made any request for this so called service,

My question why Vodafone started this type of PICK POCKET Business. , Is it not your minimum responsibility to send a request to customer for confirming weather this facility enable or not.

I request you to stop sending all types o[censored]nwanted messages and service to my number (pls note the Govt order reg. this).I also request you please refill the amount which you deducted from my account. I am waiting for your kind immediate reply. pls note that if you are not responding properly I will send this complaint to TRAI(Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) and all major News Papers in India.




Regards,

Anjan

I'm an another Vodafone Prepaid customer from Bangalore who is affected with this. Vodafone keeps deducting Rs 5/- from my mobile's account for this "International Match Service ", although I've never subscribed to any such service. As suggested by the Customer Service, i sent a message to 144 as "CAN IMD". I received a message shortly saying the Service has been deactivated.

But the very next day, I started receiving the same Match alerts and my account gets deducted each time.

Please stop this service as it is very irritating that my account gets deducted for no reason.
Expecting a response from you on this soon.

Regards,
Vanita

    My number is [protected]. One 20th April, about 14:00 hrs I received a message saying as per your request, caller tunes has been activated. I was aware of the fraud, so I immediately called the IVR and deactivated in 10 mins. I got messages for both, activation as well as deactivation. But my balance was reduced by Rs. 30 for the rental. Ever since, I have asked for last five transactions, by sending sms FIVE to 111, the details are provided only till 11 am on 20th April, while its 24th April today. I seems that Vodafone do not want to give me evidence that they have deducted Rs.30 from my account. I moved to Vodafone, via MNP and found that a lot of issues are unadressed by Vodafone: a) Unasked subscriptions, b) IVR not connecting to Call Center, c) MNP subscribers not able to recharge online/eRecharge, d) Vodafone store is full of complaining people, takes at least an hour to be able to reach an executive, and I am sure, there are more, that I am yet to experience... It surprising how Vodafone, being such a large player, is not able to take care of these issues? These are so petty and silly things...

    Hi Vodafone Customer Care, I am surprised, how you are unable to reach me... The first thing I gave above, was my cell number.. All other people offering credit card, loans, holidays etc are able to reach me and you are not... do you even have network at your place of office ? I doubt it?

    Also, I had already left a message on the provided link about 8 days ago, for which you are yet to contact me or provide feedback... My emails to your mumbai customer care id are being responded with a gap of more than 20 days and that too with vague information...

    Please write here, what more details do you want ? my comments on the provided link are not visible to other members and I want you to clarify me on the above raised issues so that all others can note what you have got to say on this...
    It appears, there is no point putting my say here... I dont think that these vodafone people even have an account with this site, to read, respond and resolve... all the threads I see, the same bloody message to use the link and provide more details...they are definately not gonna respond... totally dumb people are working in Vodafone...!@#$%^&*... so many days have passed, hey have not bothered about my message... no one is hearing this...

      SUB -- complaint about service,Prepaid customer [protected].kolkata.

      Hello ,

      This is prasenjit bharati using a vodafone no [protected] for the last 5 years.I am a Predpaid customer.
      I was very much satisfied with the service.Recently,I am facing problem.Few days ago,I recharged with a Rs.98 for 2gb surfing .Few days later,suddenly my balance shows negative Rs.-4312/- [minus(-) 4312].
      I spoke to customer care & said that I surfed the internet after completing 2gb & thts why my balance went Rs.-4312/-.I used only 400mb extra.Becoz of the prepaid customer I am paid only for 2gb & I don’t want more than 2 gb.As a end user how can I know when it finished 2 gb.I didn’t get any sms from vodafone regarding surfing balance.As AIRTEL checks real time surfing balance & inform prepaid customer about the surfing balacne & stops the service.

      The customer care said Vodafone does not check real time surfing balance,it checks offline.Its a disadvantage of vodafone & gap in the service.

      Now my questions is when it goes zero [0] main balance we cant make a single call at that time but we can surf the internet. Whats the logic behind it . I am really upset with the vodafone service.

      After finished my prepaid 2gb surfing it deducted the bal from my main balance,th's ok but after main balance reaches zero or ' 0 ' the service should be stopped.Vodafone didn't stop the service and made my balacne negative Rs.-4312/-.

      After few days later i contacted with the nodal officer & she did nothing.

      Sir/Mam,I don’t want to loose this no.[protected].Kindly look into this matter.Please make by balance zero balacne [ ‘0’ balance] so that I can recharge this number for furthur use.As a loyal customer of vodafone & goodwill of me please make my balance zero balance so that I can use this no. for the rest of my life.

      Thanking you,

      From

      Prasenjit Bharati.

              Dear Sir,

              I want to lodge a complain against my telephone service provider- VODAFONE.

              I wanted to port my no. to Idea and Vodafone customer care told me to pay my bills and transfer the no.

              I walked into Vodafone store and paid all my bills in advance and gave them a written application to stop my ECS PAYMENT from my ICICI bank account.
              I also went to ICICI and instructed them aswell to stop my ECS payment to VODAFONE. MY BANK TOOK MY REQUEST AND ASSURED ME NO ECS TO VODAFONE.

              I have all the supporting documents for payments made and requests submitted.

              Vodafone still debited my bank account and took a double payment from me.
              I got harrassed by their CSRs and everyone refused to pay my money back or tell me what to do.

              As a result of this, I lost my time, money and health due to stress.

              I would want to take legal action against them for giving MISLEADING INFORMATION to me.

              Please help and advise what can I do.

              my vodafone no. is- [protected] region- Maharashtra & Goa.I have also submitted the same complaint with Telecom Regulatory Authority of India but have not received any answer so far.

              Regards

                      vodafone is the largest network in india but sum failures in their internet browsers please complaint
                      Accepted.Vodaphone customer care people doesn't know anything.From them u will get only restart PC and restart Mobile.GPRS will connect!!!???!!!Moral of the conversation, noting u will get any help for GPRS settings...100% true statement.

                      Customers are suffering like anything...Even sometimes Vodaphone GPRS technical team will tell like this after 2 minutes help, "customers are in queue.So, u try and call us back".What is the meaning of the word?????If customer are waiting means who am I?I purchased Hutch/Vodaphone and using paying past 3 yeras.

                      GOD has to help...
                      I have been using vodafone prepaid more than 2.5 years and activated GPRS more than 1year everyday facing the problem while using GPRS for past 1 month. While contacting the customer care regarding this that they have adviced me to receive a Setting file every time and no other choice for it .you can contact Vodafone Store for more details . so that i had gone to vodafone Store Vadapalani
                      ( Chennai-Tamilnadu) where the response is very worst.Really i was depressed with the GPRS person and his answers on that store.
                      It made me to think at that time why should i use Vodafone .

                      I did a E-recharge of Rs-95/- so that i will get 50 MB data usage free.At that time i had a talk time balance of 232.But with one day browsing in my phone i lost my balance and balance became -.50ps.Every time after the browsing i checked the balance at that time it was alright but suddenly i lost the gprs connection and i lost my whole balance.I didn't used 50MB of data i called the customer care but no use, they will either cut the phone or will say the system is updating call after some time.And after some days i got a message that GPRS 75 was freely activated for me so that i can use 30 MB of free data so i started browsing and i checked the balance it was alright they didnt charged but after some time when i checked i lost the balance.
                      I HAVE A NEW NOKIA MOB PHONE NOKIA N900.I CAN"T CONNECT THE INTERNET IN MY PHONE. WHEN I SENDING THE REQUEST TO THE CUSTOMER CARE THE REPLY IS YOUR PHONE IS NOT PROVISION ABLE. WHY ? MANY PEOPLES USING THIS IN QATAR. CAN YOU HELP ME.?

                        3g USB Stick Wrong information

                        I was sold Vodafone 3G USB dongle on Feb - 2011 for Rs 1500/- at vodafone vashi store. I was told that the unlimited usage
                        plan of Rs 599 will work on 2G as well as 3G network.

                        When I questioned that how I would get 3g speed at this much cost, I was again told that as you are existing customer.
                        when 3g broadband would be launched I would get the same speed on existing plan and I would not require to change plan.

                        Every time I use to call up I was told the same thing and now when I approached Vodafone customer care I found out that this plan is
                        applicable only on 2G network and the charges will be different for 3G network. I was shocked to know that I was fooled to believe
                        that I could use this plan for both 2G and 3G network.

                        I requested them to take back USB dongle and refund me the money. I was advised by Vodafone care executive to go to Vodafone Care Centre for refund.
                        When I approached Vodafone care centre they refused to take back. I again called Vodafone care and they said it can’t be returned. This is a case of
                        Misstatements of facts and incomplete information given to me and inducing me to buy the USB 3G dongle.

                        Again on 17’Th of April I went to Vodafone store Vashi and spoke with the manager over there. She said that as you are existing customer you would be
                        able to use 3g speed at plan of Rs 599. (Even she was under same impression. The same thing was told to me by Vodafone Chembur store)
                        Then just to confirm she called up somewhere and then said, sorry you will have to go for the new 3g plan.

                        I asked her why I was given wrong information; she said that even we were not aware of these things at that time (Feb 2011 to 17 April 2011)

                        Even at your site http://www.vodafone.in/internet/pages/3gusbstick_mum.aspx?cid=mum
                        The plans are given and you have not mentioned that these plans are for 2g network.

                        The same is printed on your 3g usb stick broachers.

                        I am really shocked after getting such false information from Vodafone. I am using Vodafone since last 8 years. We have 8 Vodafone
                        connections in my family. I never expected all these marketing strategies from Vodafone.

                        Vodafone — CHARGED ME 1753 FOR GPRS USAGE

                        AM USING UNLIMITED PLAN OF 1099, , BUT AM CHARGED Rs 1753 FOR THE USAGE WHICH IS AN UNLIMITED PLAN + THE MONTHLY RENTAL OF Rs1099.. why am i being charged of 1753??????
                        Hi,

                        I have already visited Vodafone Vashi store.

                        They said that you can not get the refund for the USB stick.
                        Also I have sent mail on vodafonecare.[protected]@vodafone.com on 20-Apr-2011
                        and still waiting for the reply.

                        Sincerely speaking I had got worst response of my life from Vodafone Vashi store. They just laugh when you tell them your concern.
                        I wanted to buy a 3G USB stick and looked at the several options available in the market until 12th March, when I walked into the Vodafone gallery at Wakdewadi, Pune. I spoke to an executive named Vipul and asked him about the Vodafone 3G USB stick and plans thereon. He explained that the USB stick costs Rs. 1500 also showed me a data enrollment form which mentioned a few plans. One of them was an unlimited plan with the cost being Rs 599 every month. Vipul explained I could surf 3G unlimited for Rs 599. I told him that I was a bit surprised as all the other operators offered 1GB at Rs 650 and this was a really exciting plan. I asked him many times if he was sure that I will get 3G speed and that too unlimited for the said amount. He replied with a big YES.I had also visited two more vodafone stores in pune where I got the same information. I had read all the terms and conditions on the data enrollment form where they not mentioned any it is GPRS plan or 3G Plan or any speed regarding internet speed.
                        The USB stick worked fine and gave 3G speed till 10th april. However, after the 10th of April, the I was able to get only a normal GPRS signal. I called up customer support and they told me that my 3G account has been deactivated. I was not given a reason why this happened. I walked into the Vodafone gallery again the next day and lodged a complaint. I was told that I cannot get 3G speed as I had signed up for a normal 2G plan which would give me unlimited internet at Rs 599. I asked why I had been promised 3G unlimited for Rs599.Vipul did a complete U-turn and said that he had never promised me anything. He had no explanation for that.
                        I called vodafone customer care several times but they never responded to my complaint. Every time called up them, they told me that my mobile was switched off so they were not able to contact me.
                        I was really frustrated with vodafone services.So I lastly lodge the complaint againt the vodafone Essar in the consumer court on 12th of may.
                        Now i have sufficent evidence and proof to go against vodafone but i need all you guys to provide me more evidence to hit vodafone really hard.So i can win the case and vodafone will never think to play such kind of frauds.
                        U can send me a scan or picture of your complaint on a simple plaine paper sheet written and signed by you along with the necessary documents on my e-mail id. Your complaint must contain
                        1)Data card number 2)your mobile number 3)Email-id

                          I pray for immediate arrest of Delhi police commissioner Brijesh Gupta, for not arresting Vodafone CEO Marten Pieters, involved in fake lottery scam. On 18 April 2011 perhaps 10 lakh Delhi citizens received SMS from [protected] : CONGRATS YOUR MOBILE NO HAS BEEN AWARDED 350,000,00GBP in 2011 COCACOLA INT'L MOBILE DRAW TO CLAIM SEND YOUR DETAILS Dr.White Smith,EMAIL([protected]@live.co.uk

                          No, in this instance, fake lottery SMS was sent to presumable a million Delhi citizens, from Vodafone moblle [protected]. The sender can be identified in 5 minutes. Country should stop tolerating such scam and struggle for arrest of Delhi Police Commissioner for inaction.
                          A Vodafone customer, with photoidentity in custody of Vodafone, sent fake lottery SMS to 10 lakh people asking them to claim cash prize of 3.5 crore GBP. I spent time and money, complaining/reminding EVERYDAY to Vodafone, TRAI, DOT, Communication Minister, Police Commissioner, Prime Minister, President, media. After sustained reminders for 13 days, I received fake lottery SMS from same Vodafone mobile and with same content. Can there be any doubts that both police commissioner and communication minister are sharing the booty? How can nation tolerate Kapil Sibal on Lokpal bill committee? Total fake lottery money in two SMSs : Rs[protected] x 2000000 = Rs7, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 I don't know how to state that sum in words. When I was at school, a billion had 12 zeros, at medical college, a billion had 9 zeros. I don't know if 7000 kharabs makes a valid statement in words - I don't know units beyond kharab. Police refuses to book FIR involving that INFINITE looking amount. Shiela Dixit's DJB wants me to submit FIR for theft of water meter costing Rs500 or else, pay a compounding bribe of Rs200

                            Vodafone network problems are horrible!!
                            Since yesterday at 10, I have not been able to make outgoing calls or SMS or even receive incoming calls or SMS.
                            At first, Vodafone guys tried to blame my handset for it and made me try all sorts of rebooting methods and even asked me to change the Access Point settings on my mobile phone.
                            When nothing worked, they accepted that its a problem with their base stations in Delhi and that several customers (the customer care agent told me 4.3 lacs customers!!!) in Delhi have been facing this problem since 19 the April morning.
                            All along they have been telling me that they are sorting the problem out at their end and that I should wait for a "couple" of hours...or that they have "forwarded" my number to higher up....what the hell does forwarding my number do for me if the problem is not solved???!!!

                            Well, Vodafone I have waited for 24 hours now and I AM FED UP WITH YOU!!

                            So after being associated with Vodafone as a "high revenue" post-paid customer for 8 years, I am switching my service provider.

                            Not just because they have utterly failed to solve the problem even today (more than 24 hours after this problem started), but more because of how they have handled this problem by giving me repeated false commitments!!

                            update on 21st April:
                            The network problem still remains...unable to make or receive any phone calls & SMS for 3 straight days now!
                            And now Vodafone is totally denying the problem saying that they have corrected the network problem from their end yesterday. On my asking why my services are still not working they have no answers...they are again asking me to reboot my phone.
                            How dumb does Vodafone think consumers are???!!! Does Vodfone seriously think anyone will believe their shameless lies!!??

                            PS: Yesterday, I have applied to switch my business to Airtel.
                            update as on 23rd april:

                            problem is still not solved. unbelievable!!!

                            now they are saying that some customer care agent changed my talk plan into a internet surfing plan only!!

                            what kind of ridiculuous excuse is this???!!!

                            i am determined to take this bunch of jokers to the consumer court now...

                            whosoever is planning on a vodafone connection now...be careful!

                            lousy, lousy service...and if this can happen to a long standing, high value customer like me then it can happen to anyone...

                              I have a cell no [protected], for which all of a sudden without any warning sms or call the outgoing was barred. Is it in the terms and conditions of the connection that the call can be barred without any prior notice.

                              Calling on the number 198
                              On calling the customer care inspite of several requests the complaint was not lodged. and the phone was disconnected.

                              Email to nodal officer cc to apellate authority is unanswered.

                                I recently puchased vodafone USB stick in which Vadafone claimed that they are giving u unlimited on 599 Rs + Tax. in which you will get minimum speed of 1.0 mbps to 3.1 mbps, but actually my downloading speed is just 1 kbps, which is a huge difference between what they claim and what i am getting, my SIM no is [protected].

                                I have already logged my complain to Vodafone complaints but I didn't got any response from vodafone. I called so many time to Vodafone person who sold me this USB stick but he did not receive my phone calls. I also called to vodafone customer care they suggested me several options which I have already tried. After that CC executive told me that they can not help me further on this.. I am shocked with this comment of CC executive because at the time of purchasing the stick vodafone gave me several commitment like internet speed you will get is 1.0 Mbps to 3.1 Mbps . Currently I am getting speed of 16 kbps to 47 Kbps and sometimes it show speed in 16 bps to 0 bps.. Please help!!

                                  Dear sir,

                                  i am tired of this company it is cheating its costumers i have recharged my mobile number [protected] with 150 rs online from by netbanking account but they have not given the recharge to my mobile phone and keep making false promises to me they keep lying that please wait for 24 hours the recharge will be given to you but nothing has been given to me till now its been 78 hours from the time of rechgarge but neither the amount has been credited to my mobile phone nor to my bank account.

                                  Please helpppppp!!!

                                  I am very tired of calling and going to vodafone stores but nothing help has been given to me.

                                  Please try to solve my problem.
                                  On 23rd Aug 2013, in the early hours of morning, I recharged my mobile balance by Rs.140.00 through ICICI Bank imobile service, As I did not get any confirmation from Vodafone, I repeated the recharge again for the same amount. Upon calling the customer service, I was told not to worry and that sometimes it takes atleast half an hour for processing. When I still did not get the credit, I checked with ICICI Bank to confirm the transfer, I was told that the transaction was processed from their end successfully. The transaction numbers are[protected] for Rs.140.00 and Transc no.[protected] for Rs.140.00. My vodafone mobile no is [protected]. When I called up the vodafone customer service again after almost 12 hrs, with the facts, I was sent some addresses of Pune and told to contact them in person. This is the height of stupidity and very poor customer service on the part of vodafone. For Rs.240.00 balance confirmation I might have to spend more than the rechg amout by way of transportation expenses. When told the customer svc supervisor that I cannot do a stupid thing like this, I was told to wait another week. No complaint number or ref no. was given. If multinational companies enter our country and loot customers like this with impunity, who is to be held responsible.Maybe the Telecomm Ministry shoul wake up and see the number of complaints against these erring companies.

                                    Connection or sim taken from Retailer : 'SANDHYA TELECOM', New Barrackpur Station Road West, opposite of 'MAYA RADIO'.Distributor : 'PODDAR', Barasat. Sim activated on 13th January, 2011.

                                    Incoming and outgoing both are stopped. Vodafone is telling that same paper and photo are used to issue more than 9 sim cards. All sims are blocked due to this reason. At present the balance in this number is Rs. -27.49/-. Rs. 98/- recharge has been done on 17th April 2011 at 8-25p.m., but the sim is blocked due to which internet connection is not opened. Transaction ID is K[protected]. My questions are

                                    1. As a valid customer why am I going to submit document and photo again? As the retailer or distributor may have copied my original photograph and document for further use. The retailer can again use those copy of photograph and paper to clear the blocked sim once more. Have I continue that all these 'Fake' sims under my name were issued by the same retailer and same distributor?
                                    2. I want to know why my original papers were duplicated along with the photograph and how 9 sims were issued?
                                    3. I want to know that distributor and retailer who has signed for those 9 fake sims issued in my name.
                                    4. I am afraid that the retailer 'SANDHYA TELECOM' might have issued my paper and photograph in issuing other mobile network operators' sim also.
                                    5. I want to take legal steps against those persons who are associated in this crime. How can I proceed? Please help me.

                                      I regret to write this that after using Vodafone service for more than 5 years continuously, I lost my SIM card and today went to Naupada Thane Gallery with all the required documents. But to my shock, executive Sumeet Jha was so rude, he didnt even ask me what my problem was and directly started saying that he can’t do anything since system is down. I further stated him that I have been visiting store for past 3 days continuously, (earlier went to Prabhadevi , there a lady executive was very polite and friendly, and she guided me with the documents needed) please see if there is any other way or should I buy new SIM, the answer I got to hear was that “I can switch to other service provider”, and then when I asked him you are not even trying to help me he went ahead and said I can even complain this to his nodal officer.
                                      It came as an extreme shock to me, to get this kind of experience from Vodafone executive.
                                      Its only because of such executives like Sumeet Jha, I don’t feel like using Vodafone now.
                                      And this not only my story, there are lot many who have already switched to other service providers because of this kind of rude behaviour of executives.

                                      Hello,


                                      This is inform you that I am very surprising that when I have visit to your mini vodafone store at kannamwar nagar - 1, vikhroli (E) for coverting my Air-tel service to vodafone by MNP (Mobile Number Portability).



                                      Vodafone executive Mr. Srinivas was talking with very rudely language with me and as per his attitude he doesn't want to grow the vodafone business.



                                      when i asked him for his surname, he told me that i will not give you my surname and do whatever you want.



                                      Such type of people very painful to customers and business.



                                      Hope you will take proper action on this.



                                      Please help me out to activate vodafone services on my mobile.



                                      Regards

                                        After making a lot of query, I m finally bashing a complaint against Vodafone. Here is my problem, does Vodafone have some partiality issues with cities like the Vodafone users at Mumbai can get more awesome features than users from Bhubaneswar ? or Vodafone just don't have the credibility to treat all its consumers equally? anyways i m totally pissed! My uncle got transfered to Oman recently, and i need a bonus or any top-up card or voucher from Vodafone to make cheap calls to Muscat. The worst thing is its NOT AVAILABLE HERE AT BHUBANESWAR. I tried calling customer care but, the only good thing about Vodafone customer care is the VR....thats just the cliché. Then i googled it, according to their website they are saying that "you can buy the World or Gulf calling cards from registered Vodafone store or mini store". Then again I checked which are the registered mini-stores or stores here at Bhubaneswar. AND THERE IS ONLY ONE "REGISTERED" STORE HERE, i want that gulf calling card so bad that i even went to that store which is kinda far from my home to ask and buy the Gulf calling card so that i can make calls to muscat with cheap charges. Here is the funniest thing about it, most of the customer care trainees there denied the existence of any Gulf or world calling cards totally by Vodafone. Some babbled for hours and said maybe Vodafone isn't supplying any of them anymore. Some said yes its available go check at the "PAY HERE" counter. Spent almost 2 hours of my precious time and got nothing at all! I came back home and googled about those cards again, they are available in other states while its not available here and many other states. And i have no idea why they got a fancy website, either its not cool for a simple user, i didn't got any help from their website. Anyways i m going to google for more forums and write more about this issue its not cool at all! If they just stopped supplying WCC or GCC how someone supposed to call their relatives or dearest one far from our country. Hope anybody will read this and take some actions!
