Global Direct people visited my home and told me that both of my no's, [protected] and [protected] would changed to GTK 299 plan (Re 1 STD and 0.6 local) within 3 days. They also took money for that. When I checked after a month, it was not changed at all and I ended up paying extra money. When I called vodafone customer care, they changed it on 9th May 2008. I lost a lot of money because of that.

Hi,

I have been offered a CUG service from Vodafone and that the calls within the CUG will be free but I am being charged for them and on contacting them, they have advised that they will investigate and come back, however, none have reverted back to me.

I hope this complaint is forwarded to the relevant authorities and is addressed accordingly.



Thanks and regards,

I had given a security deposit oif Rs 6500/- to vodafone online when i was planning to travel to singapore.

The services were activated and when i came back it was told to me that I should be visiting nearest Vodafone store to get the deposit back.

Today, Monday, May 5th when I visted the store in Dwarka Sector 12 market, to my shock I was informed that the amount will be adjusted against my bills...

My bills are paid directly by bill desk and if the security was to be adjusted then I should have been told in advance . While I was in Singapore my services of the phone were barred twice...i want to understand why the security was not adjusted at that particular time.

The store supervisor Md Umar and his body language was totally aginst the customer care disciplines and I was really shocked that such pople have been hired by organization for customer care...

I would like that the security deposit be refunded to me at the earliest and strcit action should be initiated against Mr Md Umar in dwarka branch or he should be removed from customer facing responsibility

I am Abhishek Shastri, I m a Vodafone Prepaid Customer in Lucknow U.P.East. I have a problem that whenever i recharge my number with a topup, the messege is displayed that Recharging is not allowed. I talked to customer care they told me your sim is damaged and you have to convert it on post paid or change the number because it is recharged 20 times a day with a wrong code. Regarding this i am complaining about Vodafone Customer that on same day there server was down and nobody in lucknow was able to recharge there Vodafone pre-paid. So obviously i tried it more than 20 times. Now they are not realising there mistake and they are not taking any action regarding this issue. I don't want to change my number because it is official and very important for me. I am using there service from past two years. Is this the way to help customer by using the advertisment of a Pug. I am very frustated with there behaviour and do they have any rights to terminate this number without any reason. I have two Refrence Number[protected] and[protected].

Hello,

I am writing to you with regard to the Vodafone connection [protected] which I hold with you all.
I have been charged Rs. 25 for international sms which claims to be sent from my number.
I called in your vodafone customer care who start the conversation with "I am happy to assist you" but land up not assisting us customers in one single way.

I want to make it very clear that I had not sent a single international sms from my phone and how in the world can you charge me for something which I have not done, this is really disgusting. One cannot believe a mistake so grave from such a big corporate house.

I would also want to inform you that something similar had happend in the February 2008 month bill as well, wherin I was charged for 3 international sms's which I did not send.

This seems to be an issue with your server or system.
In Feb 2008 when i had called in, I was promised that I would be reimbursed R.s 15 for these 3 International sms. This reimbursment or refund never happend, anyway.

And now again this Rs.25 issue. Immensely saddening. I just happened to go through my bill this month & noticed these charges, I dont know how many times earlier you would have charged me in such a manner.
This is totallly not acceptable. An issue i should have brought forth long back.

I have been a loyal customer of yours for the last 4 years & now this is beyond my tolerance. I am not concerned about paying you Rs. 40 (25+15), my concern here is that why should you charge customers for something which they have not done. I am not sure if again next month you would bill me for such unruly charges.

I am marking a copy of my email to "The Hindu" Newspaper, "Deccan Chronicle", "The Times Of India" & "the Indian Express"
This messege has also been posted on http://www.consumercomplaints.in for Consumer Complaints.

The progress of this email will also be posted on my blog murtuzahk.blogspot.com, so the whole world can know how you actually take further steps to resolve my greviances.

In anticiaption of your prompt response.

Thank you,
Murtuza.H.K

I have a Vodafone dead SIM that does not work, but I have been getting the bills for the previous 2 months as the account is active.

I reasoned with Sapna at Mulund Vodafone gallery and she informed me that the account is active and the bill is generated irrespectie of faulty or blocked SIM.

You must pay for not being able to use your SIM as you are a Vodafone customer.

I am a post paid vodafone customer and to my amazement I discovered this month that I have been paying my vodafone bill twice over from August 2007.

Vodafone charged the bill to my credit card and I also made payment through my ICICI account. The payments were being duplicated for the last 9 months but Vodafone never ever sent me a SMS informing me of the double payment being made.

If I would not have paid the bill they would have sent an SMS to get their payment. As they were receiving double paymnet they kept mum for the last 9 months. What a shame on a company valued at billions of GB Pounds.

we wre a small retailer of vodafone balance in vyara. we get balance to sell alternate days i.e. Monday Wednesday & Fridays. over that we are forced to buy coupons against balance or else we are not provided with any balance to sell. hence we are not able to arrange for money as the coupons stock goes on increasing un necessarily as we havelimited sale of it. this has resulted into financial crisis in our house. today also against balance of 4000/- we were forced to buy 2 coupons of 551/- each which previously also we had & which has hardly any sale in our shop. as a result there is an un necessary blockage of our money. i would just want to know that is there any rule as would force to buy coupons against top up balance? we are fed up of this.

'AFRAID TO HELP' should be the avdertisement instead of 'HAPPY TO HELP'. Its diffcult to contact vodafone customer support( whats their present toll free number?; who knows?).
One time i could contact on 111 & compalined about a gprs issue; but they didn't provide any support.
its too irritating(!)..

Vodafone moto is "Happy to help" but it should rather be changed to "We are here to bug you". I have had Vodafone post paid connection for about a year now. My bill generally comes in the range of 600-900. Last month, I had been to Mumbai on official purpose and due to roaming charges, my bill went high. Since then I get calls and messages daily from Vodafone asking me to make an interim payment . Though I explained many things like why the bill went high, how I have always paid bill on time and will do so this time aslo, am working for a reputed IT MNC, there was no change in their tone. They kept warning me that all my outgoing calls will be barred if i dont make an interim payment. I was also adamant that i will not make any interim payment till my bill comes. Finally, after 3 weeks of mental torture, they have barred my outgoing calls today (April 30th). I tried to pay the bill online and my account was disabled. When the customer support person called me again for bill payment, i told them that if my account is not active, i cannot make an online payment. Then it was enabled and now I have made the payment. But I am not even able to call customer care to tell them that i have paid the bill and they can activate my connection. All this for my phone billing going 400 Rs more than usual bill range.

these is regards to vodafone number [protected]. i took this postpaid number on 12th of April n hv been told to activate the international roaming on it. i hv also buyed ur new product vodafone USB modem using which i can surf net.

Hello Usha Nandini,

Thank you very much for the replying...
I would request you to please go through content of the email first and do suggest me if I need to really go to vodafone center because I really have nothing to do with that.

for other suggestion to talk with vodafone care, I have already done so with no result and this is the reason why I reached to you.

Please let me know if you can really offer any help to me in this regard else I do not left with any other option then to cancell this connection as it seems no body is really caring about what the problem is and just passing the ball to next person.
