Vodafone India Complaints & Reviews

I am writing this to inform Vodafone that I have been harassed by you guys completely and if there will be no action taken even after this email, I am going to lodge a complaint in the police and consumer court.

I have been using your services since 2012 and this is the worst service that I have faced in my life, I used your international roaming services almost every year and only this time on March 2019 I have been billed for INR 14000 and for not my fault at all, the guy in the store (Name: Madhu, Toli Chowki Branch - Hyderabad) who told me that he activated my services and I do not need to do anything else just start using my phone once I reach there, this I did and now I get a surprise with the bill. I went to the store for 2 months back and was told that coming Monday some manager will come and they will call me to solve this issue it has been 2 months now and I guess the manager has lost his way!

I called the customer service and complained about this they took the complaint and nothing ever happened to it, I was promised that some customer relationship manager will call within 24-48 hours and I guess even he lost his way and it has been 1 and a half month. I am continuously getting called from your end to pay the bill but not even a single call to resolve this and NOW MY OUTGOING AND NET HAS BEEN BARRED !!!

Madhu is clearly mentioning that it was his fault that he forgot to inform me to install the app and even after that he is not accepting that this is is to be resolved.

Hello Madam/Sir,

I am RAMAN, working in GLOBAL STOCK GURGAON, staying in SECTOR 17C (near to IFFCO CHOWK).
In my OFFICE, we have 11 vadafone connection, in that 11 of them post paid.I hope I am a

I have network problem, in my OFFICE. Means my call is disconnected sometimes,
and in another situation I am not able to make any call because of low signal.
My current place name is SECTOR 17C, just 3.5 KM from IFFCO CHOWK.

Want my deducted money back
₹49 deducted for some video box subscription on 6th june 2019 6:11 pm which I didn't activate at all, infact i don't even know for what purpose it is used. I called 198 which is never connected, 199 spoke with customer care executive she says app is stuck call back after 4hrs. More than 3times i called am getting the same response, when wil the 4hrs gets completed n get my deducted money back??? Dialled *111*2*4# for last 3 deductions... It says no data available

I have been charged Rs.698 (546+152 tax) saying that i called to 51717 and talked for 39 mins by vodafone, which is in all the way unrealistic. First of all, with other telecom subscriber 51717 is invalid number by mistake also no one can dial 51717 making call is unrealistic, top of that talking for 39 mins is not at all possible

when i contacted through webchat to vodafone customer care they said it can not be waived off as its genuine charge when i insisted to waive off.

vodafone is saving this 51717 number through SIM tool kit & charge customers heavily & making us fool.
i am not willing to continue with vodafone now since its cheater company.

I use two postpaid connection of which one connection is used for internet connection & calling. & the other no is just kept active as I have it connected with Banks & others. But the bill received is showing internet charges of Rs 599 whereas I dont use the internet connections.

This is really horrible. It happened for the second time.

In June, 2019 month Vodafone mobile bill I got extra charged for 249 Rs for VAS.

I contacted VF customer care and got information that these changes are caller tune and charges are for 249 Rs /12 months and there is no refund on cancellation.

In reality never accepted /clicked or sent any sms to enable caller tune and
I have been charged for 249 Rs extra and there is no refund when i asking them to disable it immediately.

This is really unfortunate that Vodafone is adding VAS automatically and there is no refund on cancel request.

I have transcript of communication with VF customer care on this matter.

One of the worst, atrocious service I have ever received. I have a postpaid connection recently purchased. The internet connection does not work while my network is in roaming. I called customer service to complaint. The only thing they do is raise a complaint and close it without even checking the resolution of the problem. They don't bother to contact the customer to check. All they do is to fool customer saying "My technical team (which is actually invisible even to god) will contact you regarding the issue in the next 24 hours (which never occurs)" and close the complaint.
I mean, why do you even have a customer service to provide such a creepy service?

Problem:
When my network moves to roaming, i turn on the data connection, it says "Sign in to Vodafone network" and my internet connection does not work. When I browse internet, I get the error, "Data Usage Alert! as per regulatory norms, internet service has been stopped due to pack quota / validity"

Whenever I call to complain, I was told that my internet service active with huge amount of data balance. But it simply doesn't work.

On 7-jun-19 in the early morning my balance was deducted by Rs 21 for kids pack and again after one hour Rs 21 deducted for english seekho service.
Above mentioned services are not at all activated by my number.Eventhough unnecessarily money is deducted.
on the same day i spoke to customer care executive, complaint about the inconveience but no response from their side.They told money could not be refunded...
With out my knowledge money is deducted from my balance.Even the above mentioned VAS services are not present then how they would deduct from custmeer.

I had recharged my vodafone number of rs 448 twice by mistake on 10-06-19 and 11-06-19 so can you please extend my pack limit .please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please

I haven't activated any rubbish service like Mazaa Mobile, & I know, it's done from Vodafone side to deduct balance in my account. & I know too that you people do (activate services & deduct balance) by their own to just deduct balance with everyone, who have unused or more amount of balance. So stop this kind of foolish things, & stop making us fool by saying that this service is activated by our side. If this things happen again, I assure Vodafone, I switch the service provider. Not only me, in my family only, more than 10 people have Vodafone connection since more than 5 years, so they too switch the connection for me, & I am capable to influence my relatives & others to switch who are also too old customers of Vodafone. So be careful for next time or else I don't come here again for complaint, I & other just switch to your competitor, & you loose many loyal customers !

Respected Sir/Mam, i have using multiple postpaid of vodafone since it was hutch.never this thing happened earlier.i switched from reliance to vodafone postpaid and using this number.suddenly the company changed my plan without a single information to red basic pack and now when i contacted vodafone customer care, they are saying i have to pay the minimum rental charge for 2 months.i was paying the bill fluently, i didn't pay last month when i saw my bill exceeded to rs.100 and my plan was auto changed.this is simply cheating customers without informing them about the plan upgradation.now i am getting forced by vodafone to pay this massive bill.i never use net from this number and i hardly make calls as well.but still i have to pay around rs.800 for 2 months.don't cheat customers like this.i will clear up this bill and will switch to the best service provider available with the best rental package.the same thing happened with my around 16 years old number as well- the pack is auto upgraded to red basic which is used by my father.i will switch both the connections and will suggest people not to go for any vodafone postpaid plans no matter what lucrative offers they offer you.they will definitely cheat you the way they did me and many existing users by changing your chosen plan to their chosen plan.shame for such a big company.regards.

I am Vodafone user from westbengal. I was supposed to recharge on Vodafone [protected] but it was recharge to [protected] amount 399. Hence I request to solve the problem.
Called Vodafone customer service but couldn't solve the problem.
I think Vodafone should have access to resolve the problem.

My vodafone portability request has not been taken care of. I have raised it on 18/05/2019 and submitted all my proofs at store. I cleared my past month bill 560 and paid for 24 days Rs. 376 as told by voda store manager Pankaj More, Hinjewadi, Pune branch that it would take 4 business days for new sim to work. I paid for 3 months prepaid plan Rs. 385 and new sim charges Rs.25 at the store. Delay of a week happened and I was not informed. I had to take follow up and I was told by Voda store manager whom I called that due to delay by vodafone system I have to pay extra Rs 95 for that week and then they will generate a new request number and my request will be processed within 4 days. But I asked him that due to delay from Vodafone's side why should I have to pay, and I was told that "you are saying as if you are not using the service, you are not the only customer with voda who is facing such issues. Either pay Rs. 95 or come and take back your money". I contacted the customer care and askrd to talk to someone from the senior team. I received a call back in 3 hrs approx and that person told me to pay Rs. 95 and I wont have to pay any extra money. I asked him to give a written confirmation mail and he confirmed he would send right after the call, but I never received the mail, yet I paid. Again the same thing happened, I again had to take follow up and i was told by store manager that my request has expired and I need to contact customer care and provide him the new number. I did as he said and I have that request number as a proof. I was contacted after a few days by customer care saying I again have to pay Rs. 50 for my postpaid account as my request has still not got processed. This has become like a loop now. I had to take follow up from someone senior in vodafone customer care and after telling him the entire story I was told that money would be waived off and since May was over, I again had to request for a new portability request number by texting on 199 and that number I will have to provide to store manager again. There is no communication or coordination between stores and voda customer care. I again listened to him before taking any action and raised a request as told. Still nothing has happened and again the same follow up process had to be done, first I was told they are not sure if the sim provided to me would work for the new request and I would need to visit vodafone store and I had to again ask them to connect me to someone senior and I was being told by a team lead that they have escalated my issue with "Resolution Team" when I told them that I am now keeping record of the calls with vodafone. I was assured a call back within 48hrs from the responsible team which I haven't received and 3 days have passed. I have finally raised it on twitter about this mental harrasment keep TRAI in loop. I want to file a case of mental harrasment caused by this company and how unprofessional their behavior is. I want my money back that i had paid for prepaid plan of 385 for 3 months and 25rs. for new sim. Because of vodafone's unprofessional grievance tackling my postpaid bill is being increased each day which I want to get waived off and just grant me my money back from voda store so that i can stop this mental harrasment of following up continuously between voda store and customer care and shift my number to airtel or Jio which are much better competitors. I want this to be escalated as well so that no other customer faces such pathetic services. I had to continuously take follow up calls between store manager and voda customer care and result is the same. I want strict actions to be taken against this company and I have the call recordings for the false promises done by senior team members of vodafone customer care services. I need help as this portability has become mental harassment for me in middle of busy schedulein office and home. I am attaching the Screenshot of money paid at voda store.

I have been charged 1540 saying that I called to 51717 and talked for 110 mins, that too for Astrology, which is in all the way u realistic. talking for 110 mins is not at all possible without charging Guys please be aware of this kind of fraud, if you face the same problem then complain about this, at least other people will come to know about the same issue..

I want to discontinue with my Vodafone number [protected] with immediate effect. Kindly note that your Customer Service personnel at your Vodafone Gallery at Mazagaon, Near Seva Niketan, Mumbai having ID Card mentioning his name as Hyder is really losing you a lot of customers due to his rude and non-helpful nature. It is best for you to discontinue his services before he does more damage. If you look at my past payments made you will realize that more often I have paid more than the bill amount to have a credit balance with you, often double the amount so as to avoid paying each month and be able to pay every alternate month. All we require from you is courteous service, which I am sorry to say your employees cannot provide.

So please discontinue my service with immediate effect.

Am one of the victim now and Vodafone has charged Rs300 as value added services fee for calls to vodafone's very special number -51717. It looks like many customers are facing this problem since years. But, this vodafone's has not taken any action and blaming the customers to pay unnecessarily. Don't know to whom it value adds. Very disappointed!!!.
