Vodafone India Complaints & Reviews

VERY SORRY TO PUT IT ON RECORD THAT FOR TWO CALLS TRIED FROM VODAPHONE (BHADRAK, ORISSA AREA) TO VODAPHONE (HYDERABAD) THOUGH NOT ATTENDED BY THE CALLED PERSON, BUT DEDUCTED @RS.15/-PER CALL. ON ENQUIRY FROM THE VODAPHONE, IT IS VERY ABSURD TO HEAR AND CLUE LESS THAT THE CALLS MADE ARE ISTD.
PREFIXING THE NUMBER AS TWO ZEROS.

CAN ANY BODY WILL HELP TO LOOK INTO THE ENTIRE CASE AND DO JUSTICE TO THE CUSTOMERS. VERY REGULARLY CALLING TO THE SAME NUMBER FROM THE SAME PHONE JUST BY GETTING THE NUMBER FROM THE MENU ALREADY SAVED AND FOR THE FAULT IN THE SYSTEM OF VODAPHONE SHOULD NOT BE PENALISED THE CUSTOMER. FOR THE CUSTOMER IT COUNTS EVERY PIE. BUT NONE OF THE FAULT THE CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT SUFFER.

HOPE IT WILL BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY AND TRACE OUT THE FAULT IN THE SAYSTEM AND RECTIFY IT AND ARRANGE TO REFUND THE AMOUNT, TO OUR SATISFACTION.

Dear Sir,
I hereby want to state that my complaint is yet to be solved. From past 3 months am visiting your outlet but its of no use and just waste of time. For my number which i had disconnected on Jan-2010 / Dec-2009, i had received a call from vodafone and suggested some offers and forced me to continue my pouring down the offers. But till now i haven't got any offers. When contacted Vodafone Store at ITPL, Bangalore, i got a poor response from them. They took it very lightly & were too negligent about my complaint. Why did your vodafone executive mislead me by suggesting offers and why did they asked me to continue.?? Today your executive had called up and asking to pay the bill as its the last date, incase of delay in payment, he will be disconnecting itseems. Let him do watever he wants. Only during the bill payment, they will remember the customers. But for the complaint issues, they are least bothered. If this is your kind of service and If your not keeping up your words, please disconnect the above mentioned number.

Hi,


This is in regards with my Vodafone mobile number [protected]

I had activated GPRS service for Rs 58 for 15 days where you get 30 MB/ day on the 11/03/2010

According to the service provider, I am supposed to get 30 MB of data everyday

On the 14/03/2010, Vodafone failed to credit 30mb of data on my account and when it was 12:00 midnight and the next calendar day started i.e: 15/03/2010; due to Vodafone not crediting the free allowances I started getting charged 10p/10kb and was charged 50 Rs for surfing and downloading.

When I called Vodafone and spoke with their unhelpful customer service advisor; Mr Sandeep Jayaprasad Jaiswal..he said that it is a network problem and hence the issue..and they cannot do anything about it.

The 30 mb was credited to me later; however the 28 mb that I had remaining on my account was taken away.

In this process; I lost 28mb of my data, and was charged 50 Rs extra…

When asked for a manager; Sandeep says that there is no manager available and I will need to call in the morning.


I want the following issues resolved;

• Register a complaint against Vodafone for poor customer services
• Asking customers to call later when it’s a problem on their part
• Crediting back my 28mb
• Refunding back my 50Rs because of their network problem

This is Vikram Sethi from Abohar (Pb.). I have a Big Grievance against
Vodafone for harassing my Dad, (Mr. Subhash Chander Sethi)
Actually,My Dad was a customer of VodafoneI.e. [protected].Customer ID-1
15182669. On 9 Nov. 2009, We gave a written request to Vodafone Store (Durga
Communications Abohar) for suspension of services without further.Female
Representative accepted it and made me talk to Vodafone Customer Care
executive for convincing me to continue! As,He flunked to convince me
Representative accepted my request for disconnection and told ,''Permanent
disconnection will be done after paying Bill''. I nodded and said I will pay
it,As I will receive the copy of my Bill. After that day, We didn't use
[protected] at all.Well, We got the Bill on 21 Nov. 2009 and We paid it all
(Rs. 486) On 23, Nov. 09 along with a SIM CARD,NEW REQUEST LETTER as said
by Vodafone customer care AND XEROX OF VOTER ID.Representative destroyed
that sim and told ''Your number will be disconnected permanently in few
minutes''.

On 15 Jan. 2010,I got an E-bill (ONLY RENTAL) from Vodafone. I contacted the
customer care and asked to update the database,But No Response! I again
e-mailed my complaint to numerous of times, But No body became ''HAPPY TO
HELP ME''.Next month again, I got an E-bill Rent to me. I again complained
on 15 Jan 2010 and asked to ameliorate the services, But again No response
at all!!!!!!!!!!!! You can see how pathetic and cruddy service your service
is!!!!!!!!!

After that , I made numerous of complaints to Mr.ARVIND DHIMAN,vodafonecare
[protected]@vodafone.com and other available e-mails against this wholly cruddy and
unprofessional Service of Vodafone!!!!!! But still no response!!!!!!!!Sorry
to enounce ,But Your employees have made VODAFONE a bloody -hole!!!where
professionalism and Integrity are still searching their place!!! Customer
should be coined as a King, But your Bloody incompetent and Rude employees
treat customers like a cut-throat dog!!

Limit got crossed, When,On 13 March, Afternoon, My Dad got a call from
Vodafone.He threatened and abused my Dad very Badly and asked to pay Rs. 400
immediately, otherwise, the result will be horrendous!!!,He added.After
talking to him, My Dad got heavy stress and hypertension.Vodafone threatened
and abused my Dad without any fault! Vodafone tried to assault and exploit
my Dad!Vodafone harassed a Heart-Patient and caused hypertension to whole
family without any fault! Vodafone is dreading people...I never expected
such a bloody rude, cheap and unprofessional Behaviour from such a Famed
GLOBAL BRAND! This is highly Behaviignoble as well as implausible our done
by Vodafone!

Why the hell, We should pay for what we haven't used??? Why??????Its not a
matter of just some 400 bucks,But a matter of above all Integrity towards
consumers.Its dead annoying... And such type of Behaviour towards a
respectable and honest person is not bearable at all! We followed all the
procedures whatsoever told by Durga communications to disconnect the number
permanently.Our Fault is what that We are honest??? Vodafone has become a
menace for us! Abruptly,without giving any information your people begin to
harass us!

Dearie! Today i.e. 15th March is the WORLD CONSUMER RIGHTS DAY and on this day in 1962,
President Kennedy had declared four consumer rights,Which you have forgotten
totally, Let me remind you! Right to safety- We have a right to safety,Your
company has become a jeopardy for us. Its yours Executive's fault that she
didn't disconnect the number in spite of getting written request and Full
payment on 23 Nov 2009 from customer and you are imposing this flub on us
rudely!We have a right to be informed, But no reminder or Information (via
email,reply,phone,sms,fax) was given to us regarding this!Were you
celebrating a slumber party in Vodafone ??????????????????????????I am
awaking you by sending e-mails asking for clarification or making complaints
But I get no response!!! Is this a way vodafone become HAPPY TO HELP????
Instead of help use ''HAPPY TO HARASS'' 3rd is I have a right to choose, I
chosen to change my operator due to non satisfaction and your employees
didn't let us opt this right yet!!! AND 4th right is to be heard, I have a
right to be heard! Without listening, Abruptly, Your executives tried to
molest us by giving threatening call! This is thorough appalling,Aberrant
Behaviour done by VODAFONE!After observing these rights, I entitle to be
redressed! Isn't it?

Regards,
Vikram Sethi.

Today I got blank calls from [protected] several times .When I called back to this No. ,no body was speaking ........Kindly investigate in this case .When I searched in Internet the no. is from Pakistan .Pls make sure that this should not repeat again .

I PURCHASED TWO PREPAID CONNECTIONS ABOUT TWO WEEKS BACK THROUGH M/S HIYA TELE COMMUNICATIONS, C-5B/36-A, JANAK PURI-PROP. SUNDEEP CHOWDHARY.
AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE OF TWO PREPAID LOADED NUMBERS [protected] AND [protected], I SUBMITTED THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS.

AFTER SOME TIME THE CONNECTION GOT STARTED. I LOADED EXTRA RECHARGE AMOUNT AND SMS FACILITY SEPARATELY IN TWO CONNECTIONS.

AFTER ABOUT EIGHT TO TEN DAYS THE CLIP SERVICES WERE BARRED THROUGH SMS AT MID NIGHT. I TALKED TO THE VODAFONE CARE SERVICES THROUGH ITS SUPREMO MANISH WHO THREATENED ME OF BARRING OUTGOING CALLS IF THE DOCUMENTS WERE NOT SUBMITTED, WHICH I HAD ALREADY SUBMITTED.
LATERON OUTGOING SERVICES HAVE BEEN BARRED THREE DAYS AGO AND LASTLY TODAY AN SMS HAS BEEN DELIVERED FOR BARRING OF INCOMING CALLS.

ON ENQUIRING FROM M/S HIYA TELE COMMUNICATIONS, THEY HAVE SUBMITTED THE DOCUMENTS ON THE DAY OF PURCHASE.

WHO IS BEHIND THIS ENTIRE EPISODE- VODAFONE CARE SUPREMO MANISH OR SOMEONE ELSE.

I SEEK PUBLIC OPINION TO FIGHT INJUSTICE AGAINST ERRING VODAFONE SERVICE PROVIDERS.

PLEASE COME FORWARD AND JOIN IN SAYING VODAFONE HAI HAI, VODAFONE HAI HAI

PURCHASE ANY CONNECTION IN FUTURE BUT NOT THE VODAFONE, THIS IS MY APPEAL TO ALL HONEST INDIANS.

I am tottaly pissed off with the Vodafone services, I took over 5 numbers from somebody , where these numbers were corporate numbers . I requested 3 numbers to be converted to prepaid and 2 to remain post paid . and transfer all the numbers on my name on address. This was a corporate to individual account transfer. All the documents were given like , NOC on corporate letter head, ID proof of compney owner , and his pan card. its almost 15 days now I am going to vodafone store each and every day , nothing is done. I am tottaly sick and tired of this . Vodafone is acting like a goverement institute. I will not recomend Vodafone to anybody also I have some 8-9 Vodafone numbers running on my name that I will move to Airtel once the Number Portability starts.

If anyboday really reads this posts , please help me resolve my problem

SUB:- Threatening & Abusing language used by Floor Manager of Vodafone

Dear Sir/ Madam,

This is in regards of a complaint filed on 12th March 2010 at near by 6:45 pm regarding for the IVR service as I continuously charge by the IVR service whenever i got any missed call from these number's [protected], [protected] (10th march 2010), [protected] (9th March), [protected] 8th March, [protected] (7th March).

I simply dialed these number's to check whether for any concerned person or not. After dialing the same IVR service started and the amount got debited for the same.

When i filed this complaint to the customer care executive he is unable to solve my problem as he diverted the statements (like the services are not available, or i dont have any updations on this account).

Further When i spoke to his senior Mr. Ravikant (Floor Manager), he started abusing and threating me that i will disconnect your number and started using abusive language and disconnected the call.

I again called up the customer care for comp-laing about the same instance the Floor In charge Mr. Manoj picked my call and further he replied that i am unable to find out your complaints as it is not registered.

This is very shocking to listen to this kind of language from the customer care department.

I am really upset from this instance and liable to file a registered case in trai and consumer court for this kind of indecent, inhibited behavior. Further i am sending you a mail to kindly look into this matter and i need an apology letter on behalf of said Managers.

Moreover, if there is no action taken against these people I am liable to go to the court for misleading the customers in evident to these people as well as the company.

Thanks & regards

the vodafone no. [protected] has been disturbing... i want to know the name of the person using the number

I am using Vodafone No. [protected] since March 2008 in prepaid. I recharge this number with life time validity on March 2009. Due to some reason I did not use this number for two months and when I switch on this number its shows Sim Registration failed. I went to Vodafone store, Model Town on 25.02.2010 and they told me that the number is deactivated due to not use for last two months. They said you have to take this number again in post paid and I agree and they issue me new Sim Card. But after two days it’s not activated and I went again in Vodafone Store on 28.02.2010 and they told its paid number and you have to pay Rs.50000/- for activation. I am using this number from last two years issued in my name then why I have to pay again as I already paid for this number 2 years back. I told them that you should send any reminder before deactivate this number but they saying that we send reminder in same number on 22.02.2010 but if number is off then how can I get Vodafone reminder and no grace period is given from Vodafone.

Service of my number is deactivated on 22.02.2010 and I went Vodafone store on 25.02.2010 morning. How can number be recycle within two days? I am sending Email to Vodafone from 28.02.10 but no reply is coming from Vodafone.

This is wrong because this is paid number you deactivate this number. I want this number again in my name but they asked Rs.50000/- to pay. I am very old customer of Vodafone since last 12 years. Please help. You can Contact me on my other Number:[protected]


Thanking & regards

I have applied for reactivating my Vodafone SIM card Mobile No. - [protected]
with all required documents and photos to Vodafone service outlet at, Gole Market Jammu on 18th Feb 2010.
The Vodafone persons verified papers and checked the SIM, and confirmed that the servives shall be restored within 48 hrs. They even declined to give the contact number of Vodafone service outlet at Swarn Theatre, Gole Market Jammu since the services shall start anyway.
However, to our utter surprise and disappointment, when the SIM couldnt be reactivated even after 15 days, we went bk to the same serveice outlet again on 5th March to enquire. There was no proper no. and record and it took another 45 mins for the staff and myself to trace the entry made in their registers. The Vodafone staff there was more surprised than us and blank, unable to find the reasons or guide further the custmer (us). I insisted to talk to some senior. After long persuassion, I got the number of Mr. Sahul, who was out of station. Next day onwards, I contacted Mr. Sahul a number of times to find out the fate of my SIM card. Everytime he says he is trying to find. Since 9th March , it seems he has also stopped picking up my calls. Many have advised me to get the new SIM card from BSNL or different service provider.

Howevr, visiting ur site at http://www.vodafone.in/existingusers/hns/pages/reachus_mum.aspx?cid=mum , the number [protected] details the list of the Vodafone Products and Services and justifies why Vodafone is the top rated company in telecom sector !!!!!

Now after long trying and no response we are planning to surrender the Vodafone SIM and get BSNL .

I am using Vodafone connection and recently I ahve changed my tariff plan from vodafone family plan to vodafone group talk 165 having monthly rental of Rs.165
I was surprised when I received a bill they have changed my plan from family paln to group talk 250 with monthly rental of Rs250. I had compalined regarding the same to their call centre but inspite of that they have not reverted back to me on the issue. Every day they ask me to wait another 24 hours for reply and their 24 hours never ends

made a payment of 16th dec 2009. not updated yet.

here is the details of the mails. scanned copy of bank statement and payment receipt attached in all the mail to vodafone.

hi varun,

thanks for your reply. as per your commitment 48 hours is over. and more of all my outgoing and incoming is bared. every time i send a mail, your reply comes after 48 hours with a word attached like sorry or regret. and then u want another 48 working hours. every time u forward the message to a specialized team who can just give a phone call, collect the details, wasting 12 hour of mine, and finally doing nothing (totally silent). then goes another mail and the same story repeats.

therefore i want my calls unbarred imidiate and updation of my payment within 24 hours. failing which, i will knock the door of consumer foroum.
