Vodafone India Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir,
For the past 1 year i kept mailing vodafone complaining about the perenial problem that i face everyday. People from different parts of tamilnadu call me and ask me why i keep giving missed calls to their number.Infact i dont know who or from where they call. I am unable to pick up my phone even for calls which comes to me fearing to attend the callers who complain about me. I am willing to place my sim card with you for observance and study. Kindly help me on this matter. Vodafone always is ignorant on these matters and once in a while they reply that my problem is resovled. Sometimes they dont accept my mail by replying that unless i make calls to others nobody dials me. They me to say that all these calls are made from my number.

Sir if calls were made from my number then it should be in the call log of the mobile.In call log we cannot adjust or edit or erase a part of the log details. My number is [protected]. I hold this post paid cug connection for a long time. Kindly be with me to solve this problem so that my fellow citizens or i are not disturbed due to the technical problem from vodafone networking.

Sir,
This complaint is in reference to my(Vikram Arora, cell :[protected]) conversation with vodafone helpline executive earlier and latest with (swati suresh iyer) on 8.10.08 at 11:10 am. regarding the problem of facing no network most of the times past 2 months, for which i have already made complaints.
At times im in roaming network and if i try, it shows no access.
The error which usually callers face :

1.This number does not exists.
2. Engage tone.
3.Please check the number you have dialled.
4.You seems to have dialled a wrong number.

I have my adverts on air on most of the property portals in the world, for which it takes lot of time and money to work on it.
Vodafone is not at all co-operating with this matter inturn, im preparing documents to go to consumer court and claim for my bussiness loss.
Also, while making complaints, i have recorded my conversation with Vodafone help line executives many times, which ill be producing to the court if needed..

Kindly, look forward to this matter as it is affecting my bussiness to a very great extent.

Thank you,

Yours faithfully,

Vikram Arora

Although I knew Vodafone is master in cheating people.
I took a corporate plan available in my company. I took 2 add-on cards for my friends one of which was not used for around 15 days after making few local calls on the day of activation.
This Company, Vodafone had sent me bills for this SIM and then suddenly this SIM was deactivated without informing me. Now they want a written application from me and worst part is they want me to pay rs.100 as the activation charge besides my rental and month's bill.
If I am paying their rental and the taxes levied upon it then why should they bother whether I am making any calls or not. I mean its upon my discretion whether I want to make any calls or not. even If this is their policy, they should have informed me about this and top of that they shouldn't have sent me the bills for this month.

Dear All,

Team,
i am a prepaid customer of vodafone ( [protected] ). i have raised a request of callertune on 14th of september through 55655 for selecting and activating it... On 15th sep i checked with customer care they asked me to maintain balance more than Rs30... but on that day i have Rs158 exactly in my mobile balance. Finally customer care executive convienced me on saying that it will be activated in 42hours... i patiently waited... But even after 48hours it was not activated... i was irritated by this customer care executives... because they are always saying that system is slow... i dont know what can i do for their technical issue. Yesterday(30th Sep) night at 11.14 i called your vodafone care...i was tensed by their answer...again telling that system is down...then how did your system knows only to deduct my money from my balance ... Vodafone customer care executive says that my call is recorded...so please check my calls... check how many times i called... 16days have been passed still why this was not resolved by your end ...Did your system falls down completely? what is this customer care is doing? i totally dissappointed by this customer care. yesterday i called again they are picking i can able to hear that someone has attended my call instead of speaking they just holding it... again i tried, but no one is answering... Finally, one girl attended my call at 11pm yesterday, her name is also 'Abi' ... She also saying that system is not showing my information and asked me to be on hold for two mins... i waited . After two mins she told that i might took half an hour. so i requested her to check and call me after half an hour, , , She agreed. But failed to do so. I think this care is trying to fool me... Team, Please resolve my query...Because of this i am ready to change my network.check with my number which will tell you how many times i called vodafone care... ATLEAST DO THE NEEDFUL NOW...

Regds,
Ashraf.

Dear Sir/Madam,
This complaint is regarding the service provided by vodafone in Orissa. I have taken vodafone prepaid connection with number [protected] on 2nd August and from the very 1st date I am facing lot of problems. Some important issues I want to mention here;

1) No incoming call from STD reliance and smart numbers.

2) I am not able to call Bihar AIRTEL numbers.

3) I am receiving so many unwanted calls and sms from vodafone(like caller tune, friend's chat etc.). I have send "STOP DND" sms as suggested by the vodafone customer executive and I have talked to them also, but still this problem I am facing.

Vodafone punch line is "HAPPY TO HELP", which is not at all relevant to their services. They have problems with all the popular telecom company and the vodafone users of Orissa are victims. Their customer care executives and their supervisor are also not providing the correct information.

Dear sir/Madam,

SUB:
not connected from mumbai number [protected] to my mobile number [protected].

In this connection, i have tried to contact ur customer care many times but no one responded except recorded message.so kindly mail me about the action taken by you.

I am a Vodafone Pune customer, mobile no.[protected]. I activated SMS30 pack on 26th Sep. at around 6.30p.m. Next morning at 9.10 a.m i received an sms from vodafone which read,
"Hello, your SMS30 pack has been successfully activated.Now you can enjoy 100 free local sms for 30 days".
After reading it i sent 6 local sms but i was charged Rs.1 for each of them.
When i brought this to the notice of Customer Care Executive Ms. Manju R Sharma, she lodged a complaint (complaint no.[protected] & promised that my balance will be refunded within 48 hours. However, my services were activated by evening.
Nothing happened for the next few days till i again called up customer care and spoke to Mr. Amol who later forwarded my call to Anulesh (Team Leader). He didn't help me, instead he insisted on the fact that my msgs. are free now. But the fact remains that i received the above mentined SMS from Vodafone in the morning while my sms became free in the evening.
There was a time lag of more than 6 hrs. between the two.Vodafone is cheating on its customers by doing this and i believe its a general practice which they acquire to loot us.I regret that i bought a Vodafone sim instead of Airtel.
Vodafone sucks!

I am a post paid customer and I have been on roaming, in Indonesia, since 15th June. I was using my Mumbai cell for some days till I got my local number here. Hence I used to check my unbilled amount regularly using the BILL sms of Vodafone.

I have saved all the messages of the unbilled amounts.

Roaming started on 15/16 June
Unbilled amount - 19 june - 604.39
Unbilled amount - 25 june - 631.99
Unbilled amount - 27 june - 1938.39
Unbilled amount - 29 june - 1966.59
Unbilled amount - 1 july - 0
Unbilled amount- 2 july - 62919.99

and now again
Unbilled amount- 9 july - 4540.4 ...without even using my number!!!

And now the bill has come showing outgoing calls on 16, 17, 18 etc which are being charged at a different rate. The unbilled amount never showed such charges and also never mentioned that the roaming charges are excluded. So they have misled me to rely on the un billed data, which i shouldn't have, by hiding this information that that roaming is extra.

And I have a credit limit of 25000 which was not used to inform me about the unbilled charges. I should have been informed about my usage nearing or exceeding my credit limit to let me decide if i want to continue using this number or not. This is intolerable neglect and carelessness on your part.

These are the two gross errors on their part which 'misled' me to use my number on international roaming.

And after 20 days of filling a complaint with their customer care e-mail/phone they have not responded properly.

Please never use vodafone on roaming or better still don't take their connection at all.

Dhruv

Hi I am Anonymous sorry i cannot post my name i am really horrified and terrified by the way these vodafone people are misusing the access rights and data access.One of my friend was got shocked when some there customer care person was tapping the conversation between him and his galfriend, albeit now he start posting and started blackmailing him.He is really not in a state to express his grieve and emotions he is totally broke and going through extreme emotional stress.Thanks for having a good site like this but i am pretty sure how seriously these complaints are taken any if it really works then please let me know what is the legality and procedure to teach these guys some lesson.

I recharged my mobile [protected] on 2nd October, 2008 for Rs.97.00. Till I have not credited with talk time.

My name is Saji Mohan & I am using a post paid connection: Ph : [protected]

Its deeply regrettable that I am being harassed by your company for every small thing.

I am a post paid customer. on August I got this new post paid connection. As there was no drop box in Trivandrum or due to unavailability of Cheque collection agents, I decided to go in for a standing instruction. I have given a written request in the first week of September to charge my credit card every month according to my usage.

Two days back, after a long struggle, i came to know that my request for standing instruction has been entered in your system and my mode of payment is through credit card.

Today I was called by some of your executive and told that I have to make my payment directly, as the standing instruction is not active.

I really wonder how there is such a delay in activation of a standing instruction self signed by me. Evenif there was any delay; Your company should have informed me much before.

I am totally dejected by the service you have given me, in the past two months.

Hopefully this mail will bring in some good changes in the service provided to your post paid customers.

Regards Saji Mohan.

I have been using a vodafone no. for last 5 years. I used to get call from vodafone that i should take an add on connection. after lot of persuassion by the agents, i called them to my office to have an add-on connection. the agent came to my office on 01/07/2008 and after taking my ID proof and Rs 250 gave a sim. The reciept was from M/s Intouch Solutions. I never activated that sim as I did not have a spare cell phone. To my utter surprise in the month of August I got a bill of Rs. 2652.94. I immediately called the Vodafone helpline no. the executive said that I have to visit a vodafone store for this. so i went to Vodafone store at Daryaganj, Delhi on 13/08/2008 and got my complaint registered. My complaint was taken and the complaint no. [protected] was given to me. It was told to me that, the no, which was allotted to me has been activated on another sim and that sim was used by some other person. I was told that I will not be disturbed again and the amount paid by me will be given back to me and the sim wil be collected by an agent of the company from me. i kept on waiting but nobady came. Again in the month of september I recived another bill for Rs. 5615.42. I was very disturbed. I again went to Vodafone Store at Daryaganj and reported the matter. It was fopund that even after registeration of complaint, the phone was not deactivated and it kept on warking and only on 30th September, the phone was deactivated. this is such a gross negligence on behalf of the company, which is causing mental distubance and tension to a loyal customer who has been with company fro more than 5 years. I was gain made to write a written complaint, which i did and gave my id proof again. From last 4-5 days i have been getting cals from Vodafone that I have outstanding bill against my name for that no. which i have never used. This is so disturbing and shows how vodafone is functioning. I would request you to please help me in this matter and get this complaint to the concerned persons.
Thanking you,
Arun Kumar Gurjar

GOT A PHONE CALL FROM VODAFONE, THRISSUR TODAY EVENING AT 06-15PM, SAYING THAT MY ABOVE MOBILE NO IS GOING TO CUT OFF FROM TONITE SINCE THE VALIDITY IS GETTING EXPIRED. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY SMS FROM VODAFONE REMINDING ME ABOUT THIS EXPIRY DATE.HOW CAN VODAFONE CALL ME AND TELL ME ALL ON A SUDDEN TO DO THE RECHARGE FOR RS.151.00, TO AVOID CUT OFF. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. YET I RUSHED TO THE NEAREST RECHARGE SHOPPE (RITCHIES, PALLIMOOLA) BUT THEY COULDNT DIRECT ME PROPERLY.I TALKED TO ONE OF VODAFONE REPRESENTATIVE (MR.JAYADEVAN, MOB NO.[protected]) BUT HE ALSO DONT KNOW HOW TO HELP ME.
IS THIS THE SERVICE VODAFONE, ONE OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST MOBILE SERVICE PROVIDER, OFFER ITS CUSTOMERS IN INDIA?? I CAN SEE FROM THIS EXPERIENCE THAT VODAFONE OFFICE STAFF DONT HAVE AN ORGANISED SYSTEM TO REMIND ITS CUSTOMERS ABOUT THEIR EXPIRY DATES. THE DEALERS DONT KNOW HOW TO HELP THE CUSTOMERS BY SELLING THE EXACT VODAFONE PRODUCTS.AND LASTLY, THE REPRESENTATIVES ARE NEVER TRAINED AND BRIEFED TO LISTEN TO CUSTOMERS' VARIOUS PROBLEMS AND SOLVE IT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, WITHOUT ANY HAZZLE TO THE CUSTOMER.
NOW THE END RESULT IS VODAFONE IS LOSING A CUSTOMER. BUT I WONT FORGET TO TELL EVERY ONE OF MY FRIENDS AND RELATIVES ABOUT THIS INCIDENT. AS FAR AS POSSIBLE I WILL TRY TO DISCOURAGE THEM TO BE A VODAFONE CUSTOMER SO AS TO AVOID ANY EMBARAZING SITUATIONS LIKE THIS. THANKS
