Vodafone India Complaints & Reviews

I am a vodafone customer. I usually do 3 months pack of 1.4 gb data of everyday with voice facilities pack. I have received a msg from vodafine stating my pack expires on 28th of june 2019. Today at the end of 26th june. My internet facility is barred. This has become a practise of vodafone from the past two recharges. Last te when i informed the they had given me reason of additional pack activation during the month which had led to reduction in days. This is the same problem this time also but this time i have not made any addition pack activation. I had also activated gpay service of vodafone whereby if i exceed daily data limit the my balance wont be deducted. Now when they have cancelled my data plan by themselves i also received a msg stating this service is also disabled for my number.

Dear Team,
I had activated International Roaming service on my Vodafone Postpaid ([protected]) prior to my travel to USA, but on the latest Bill which I received I got a shock when Vodafone has applied following fraudulent charges for International Roaming.

Incoming Charges: All calls mentioned on their Itemized Bill were exactly of 1 minute duration and these are the calls which I did not pick up or even which I Rejected. When they activated the service they did not mention that they'll charge me for Missed Calls which is out of my control, since anyone can call me! Their Customer Care is not able to answer why all Calls are of exactly 1 min duration, which could be a system error.

Outgoing Charges: Again all Outgoing Calls are of exactly 1 min duration (Neither a second more nor less), and that too to the Vodafone Divert number ([protected]). I did not activate any Call Forwarding or Divert, then why am I being charged for calls made to this number.

Their Customer Care and Appellate Team has till date not understood these points above, and keep on repeating the same answer and provide me a breakup of my bill every time I mail them. If they are not capable enough to answer a Customer's question then they should not be in the job!

I've made my current bill payment for all charges except these fraudulent charges, and until I get the issue resolved, I'm not willing to pay these.

Regards,
Mayank Agnihotri

I’ve using [protected] Vodafone postpaid number from last 4 year and last month (14th May 2019) converted it to prepaid. After converting to prepaid I went to my hometown (other state) and dial 59059 to activate number but they told me to go to Hyderabad and try to activate. Initially I didn’t get such information to stay in home state till activation. This month (19th June) I came to Hyderabad but sim was deactivated. I approached Vodafone Store Madhapur and they told me to re-submit docs. I submitted docs on 20th June and they told your number would be active by 22nd June but it’s not active yet. I’m suffering a lot because of this issue. Daily approaching to customer care and Vodafone center but nothing helping to me. I’ve another Vodafone number [protected]. My humble and last request to Vodafone, please activate my number and if Vodafone don’t want to continue my service inform me clearly because daily visiting store, submitting docs and calling customer care is too much frustrating. While calling customer care every time they telling server down so we can’t help.

New number activation ETA is 48 hour but it’s now more than 6days. Vodafone team should check why this took this much time and where is gap for better customer service.

From Vodafone shield insurance, I received a mail including repudiation letter ( The New india assurance) after the document verification of my phone. The reason mentioned for cancellation of the claim is showing to be that my device is 2 years old as per the manufacturing date. How does that matter to me? I bought the same phone and got it insured from your company by paying big bills every month.

If this was the condition, why my product was even insured by you when you were known to this that it will be this much old in the insured period.

I want my phone to be repaired under the policy as because of you people i dint get my device insured from some other reputed brands.

@Vodafone, if it wont work i am going to end my 6 years relationship with you and would love to move to some other provider. Yes obviously the insurance company and vodafone will be dragged to consumer court.

Vodafone data card for [protected] (Account no:[protected] was already deactivated on 28.03.2019 under official request no.[protected]y vodafone at vashi sector-14 stores in person. While de-activation on 28.03.19 earlier due payment against [protected] was made on line 3 under transaction no. Qcmp[protected] dated 27.03.2019. The data card was not used at all later on. The above details were forwards by mail to concerned vodafone contact mails. There was demand from vodafone for rs. 544.33 bill for april'19. It is surprising that i was patronized customer for vodafone for last more than two decades and there was not a single default on payment. Vodafone has already deteriorated services and most of the subscribers are getting diverted to other economical services providers and it is surprising that vodafone initiating wrong demand of money by raising false bills. Further notice has been forwarded by mail by an advocateon 25th june'19 towards demand of rs.662.33 with 18% interest. I condemn the demand from vodafone and should request consumer complaint to take action against vodafone18% interest towards above issue.

Sir/ma’am,
I would request you to permanently disconnect/terminate and discontinue my existing vodafone 4g connection as i no longer require these services. This is for your kind information and necessary action

Vodafone have activated chak de fatte services on my number ([protected]) and have deducted Rupees 75 from my balance against the same without any request from my side to activate the services. Now I want the company to return the amount as soon as possible.My Mobile number [protected]

Hi,

I ordered and paid for a new vodafone prepaid connection online on 4th june 2019. This sim was supposed to be delivered to me by 5th june 2019, but till date i have never received any calls to deliver my sim. I have called and mailed vodafone many times and received the same answer over and over 'this complaint will be escalated to the highest priority and we will deliver it the very next day' but for some reason this 'very next day' never happened.

At last today i got a call from someone from vodafone asking me go over to the local vodafone store and get a new connection from there. I told him clearly that is not at all possible and he replied 'then i'm sorry i will have to cancel your request' soon after i got a message saying my request has been cancelled.

This is a clear cut case of online fraud by vodafone.

1. If we are to go to the local vodafone store and get a new connection, why does vodafone accept payments online promising a door delivery?

2. I made a payment on 4th june and till the date i have never received a single penny from it.

3. As of now they have cancelled my request without my consent and will charge a cancellation charge from the amount i paid. So even if they agree to refund my money, they will take the cancellation charge from it.

4. It is almost 21 days since i made all the payment and till the date i have been chasing them for the sim but with no use. If any customer makes a delay in payments vodafone will levy a fine from them and if they make any delay will they make any amendments for it? No. A very big no.

My vodafone order id is : dchd[protected]

I upgraded my vodafone sim card to 4g. Now i am not able to send or receive messages on my vodafone number. Whenever i send a message it says can't send message sim error 28. I have updated the smsc number still i'm not able to fix this. It's the number connected to my bank accounts and in every important applications. So the sms service in this number is very necessary.

I have a post paid number. I contacted vodafone kolkata to get international roaming activated on my sim card on may 25th 2019 just before leaving the country. Vodafone people said that i would be charged only the amount for the monthy plan (A minimum amount) and i would not be charged extra. I left the country and went to myanmar only to find that my international roaming was not working. I reported this to vodafone customer many times, troubleshooting exactly how they told me to. The problem persisted. I wrote to vodafonecare. [protected]@vodafoneidea.com and others highlighting my problem but they kept writing back to me with the same set of troubleshooting. Then on the 21st of june 2019 i was sent a bill of rs. 37202.61. I haven't been able to get any messages or use my phone internationally but i receive a huge bill even when the kolkata vodafone store employees assured me that i would not "under any circumstance" get an inflated bill. I am 64 years old. I am terribly harassed and very much upset with this kind of service. Please help.

Your 4g net facilities are a joke, i can't understand why do u even claim to give 4g and take our money, i live in mumbai parel n can't even see a simple youtube video many times even ur site loaded after 3 to 4 times, it's so pathetic, i have been vodafone customer for many years but now the standard has detoriated too much, it's really time to shift to jio now

This is my complaint with regards to my bill which was generated in june, 2019. I have been charged with a bill of rs. 5300 and the reason i have been given is that i have used my number internationally. I had activated the 599 pack on 3rd may, 2019 and i was given instructions on activating that pack through app when i contacted the vodafone gallery of korum mall thane on 2nd may, 2019. They did not tell me that i have to get the pack deactivated. Also, i have moved to germany and i have a german number active since 4th may, 2019 and i haven't used my vodafone number since then though your customer care team tells me that i have used it.

First of all i was not given any instructions on deactivating the pack infact i was told that the pack will get deactivated on its own after 24hrs and on top of that i was explicitly told that i won't be charged anything extra.

I am ready to pay whatever is the legitimate charge but i refuse to pay the extra amount which i have been billed for no fault of mine.

Also, the first time i had complaint, i received a callback from their team, and the lady spoke to me very rudely and banged the phone on me saying i will not provide any information to you on why have you been charged extra and you will have to pay the bill anyhow.

It is very upsetting writing you as a non professional mannered business being running up from vodafone idea ltd. I am a very old customer of vodafone and what now happening is deduction of my account balance without any reason and without any information. I had a balance of approx. Inr 175/- after which i use to make a recharge for 399 or 401 or 419 whichever is being offered for unlimited calls and some particular gb of data per day for either 70 days or 84 days.

Since then i had rarely made any call from which the balance should get deducted as per the standard apllicable call rates. Today when i checked my balance it is inr 4.5/-. Where the difference amount from approx. Inr 175/- been deducted and how and for what. How you can use my money such as granted.
Mobile/telecom/cellular/vodafone idea ltd. Customer number for which complaint is +91 [protected].

I need my money back in form of bank account/balance amount/cash. It is a case of fraud, violating 'right to information' a right to every citizen of india as well as a customer right.

I need an urgent resolution for the same. I shall move to consumer court as well as telecom regulatory authority of india (Trai) and all legal ways.

Hope for earliest action.

Sir/madam,

I have visited vodafone store on 10.06.2019 at evening for sim replacement purpose. I am holding no [protected] for years and now i need a micro sim for my new phone. But miss keya (Ph no [protected]) completely changed the track and she told me that i have to make this connection postpaid to have a new 4g sim. I was in two mind because my husband categorically told me it was a free replacement. I have given rs 200 but did not produce any document. I have told her that i will decide on it later after the consultation with my husband because i want to continue this number. She have confirmed also that entire process will be stalled until and unless i produce the papers. After that i consulted and my husband called her and requested to stop the process and also asked her to give my money back and reinstate the number in its previous stage. She agreed and next day i have sent my driver to collect the same. But she arrogantly talked with him and refused to return the money. When my husband requested her again over phone then she used top pitch of her voice and harshly told there is no proof that i have sent that driver on my behalf.
Amazed and shocked by the incident i again visited the store today after my office but she is absent. Other colleagues refused to do any work which is done by her and also told that money back and reinstating the number to previous state is impossible as she already processed the same. This number has been associated with most of my bank and relative. For her callousness i am unable to do any financial transaction for days. Who will repay this invaluable time? Her colleagues also refused to contact her and after much calling my husband able to contact her but she again misbehaved and refused to talk properly.
Now my question is whether your employees are designed to harass people and also take advantage of being woman by using harsh words to man and women irrespectively. She committed falsely and talked roughly with me also.

I request you to please solve my problem and for your perusal i again make it pointwise.
1. Please reinstate my number [protected] in its previous state (Prepaid). So i can do a porting and bid goodbye from your service asap. Please do not waste my number. I will not make it postpaid and you can not force or drag me like that. Also keep in mind for your employees ignorance my entire financial transaction got a hit so please make it active on urgent basis.
2. Please give my money back of rs 199. On urgent basis and for such a long ordeal that lady should be penalised by some other way also. I request you to take a stern step against this employee and also her colleagues who supported her.

This is my entire ordeal and i lost hope on your service. I never thought i have to write so long for a mobile connection which is my friend from student life. Neverthless every good thing have a time period and your service and behaviour of store person is such poor that i forgot those days. Lastly again i request to solve my problem on urgent basis so that i can start my operation fluently again with this number.
