My services are barred on my postpaid number [protected] because of the issues with my another postpaid number [protected].
This happened because on [protected], I asked them to activate a different plan but Vodafone activated a very high rental plan on this number. With first bill it self i raised the complaint. With that complaint they waived of my extra amount and promised me to correct the right plan from the next billing cycle but the same thing happened. With this i got frustrated and i asked them instead of wave off send the me corrected bill and right plan activated but it continued for next 2 months.
After that they started calling me for payment reminder and i asked the same to them. But instead of correcting the plan they barred the services on my another number [protected].
After all i raised the complaint to Vodafone Appellate office Delhi but they also dint help me and answered me illogical.
i wrote to the appellate for paying the right logical amount but nothing happened.
This number i use for all my official purpose and i faced lot of issues as given below:
1. Could not transact the amount online.
2. I was looking for a job change and my interview was planned but because my service are barred i could not attend that. With this i was suppose to get 35% hike but i lost that opportunity.
3. My all domestic activity (gas booking, tv account, LIC account, bank accounts etc) are affected taking more time in getting done the things.
4. Also i have given almost two working days(16-20hrs) if add all in attending the call of Vodafone, calling Vodafone customer care and writing mails to resolve issue.
Could you please help me in either getting my number activated or getting me the compensation for the loss i had because of all above for reasons.
For detail you can find my below communication between Vodafone and me. Please start reading the below from the bottom:

Hello Shairi,
From your mail I have not received any resolution of the issue. It is same as it was before.
With reference of the content from your below mail
“as per the feedback received from the specialized Vodafone care team dated 13/09/2016 service request number is[protected] that I have not find any request for Red family linking on your mobile number ; however we were unable to process the request for linking with other mobile number [protected].
Also checked that I have already reversed the wavier of Rs.799/- on your Vodafone account ; however I have not processed the reversal again on same and your [protected]sim service has been suspended from dated 01-SEP-2016 at 16:20:12 due to reason your old outstanding amount due . “
The two statement in Red are contradicting. If there was no request for linking then why the wave off 799/rs is done on my first bill.
According to me the wave off 799Rs itself is proof for you that the red family linking was requested. Otherwise I am not relative of you that you will do wave off for me.
The reversal is not processed again because your team were not able link the two number and the bill is generated from system. I dint ask the reversal again because I can not ask every month the same thing. Otherwise it could have been done for the next month as well. But I tried to insist them make it right in the second month itself so that I do not need to call customer again and again. Calling again and again for the same thing it is really hectic.
So I request you, could you please look-into this again.
Note:As per the calculation shared in my excel sheet last time I am still ready to pay 1408Rs but not the amount 3095.29Rs. If there is any calculation mistake in that for that you can correct me and I’ll pay accordingly.
Thanks & Regards

Dear Mr. Shukla,
On the below complain, till now I have not get any solution. I got lots of calls to resolve, but it is not yet resolved.
I wasted lot of time by calling customer care and by attending the call from Vodafone executives. Because of the frustration I stopped paying to Vodafone for [protected].
Just to explain you from the beginning:
1.A call from Vodafone Executive on my number [protected] in month of March-2016, regarding the red plans. According to his explanation I decided to port my idea postpaid number [protected] to Vodafone.
2.With this one Vodafone executive came to my room to collect the relevant documents. As per executive explanation, I decided to take 899rs/month red family plan on [protected] and the same to share with my existing Vodafone number [protected] with 99rs/monthly rentals.
3.Previously my existing Vodafone number [protected] was prepaid number, just to share the data and call, it was converted to postpaid.
4.When my first bill generated on 20th april (came to my email on 24th april), I saw two separate bills. And in both the rental 899 is mentioned so I raised the below mail.
5.Because of the below mail, I got a call from Vodafone lady and she agreed to wave-off 799rs (899-99 sharing rental) for [protected]. So I paid 1394.77-799= 594.77rs. And the lady promised me to get a single bill from the next billing cycle.
6.But on May 22nd, again I got two separate bills. I called back to customer care, again they said, from this cycle it cannot happen but from next cycle we will do it. I asked how long I have to drag this. And I frustrated like anything. I told them that I’ll not pay from now if my issue will not be resolved. Till today I am getting separate bills for both of the numbers.
7.Instead of resolving the issue, my [protected] number facilities barred my number in June.
8.After that I stopped contacting customer care, but I got regular calls for payment reminder. In that I said tell me reasonable amount and I’ll pay for that. I never refused to pay for the reasonable amount.
9.Instead of giving me a right amount to pay, now they have barred the services for my alternate number [protected] from 28th of aug without any information to me, even after making the payment without delay for this number.
I am not a big businessman or a person, that I need the same number otherwise I’ll not survive, only it will need my little effort to get another number from any network and start working. But Still I want to go with right thing. For that I have written this mail.
I have done the calculation according the agreement in the beginning. According to that I have to pay only 1408.04Rs to the Vodafone. For detailed calculation please find the attachment.
Note:
1.I am not going to pay the late payment charges, late payment was not because of me. It was because of your improper services.
2.In case my number [protected] activated, I am not going to pay any rental from 28th aug -16 to till activation date.’
3.I’ll pay this amount only if my [protected] is activated and you assure me that my services will not barred till the point there is no issues from my side.
4.If anything does not happen after my this mail, I’ll file an application to Consumer Court for the compensation of the time I have spent in the communication with Vodafone and for the inconvenience I caused because of barring my services.
Thanks for your understanding.
Thanks & Regards
Your old and wanted to be Customer

Importance: High
Dear Sir/Madam,
As per the communication from your Vodafone executive on phone and the executive who came to my home to get filled application form, I choose to convert one my idea postpaid number (+91 [protected]) to Vodafone postpaid and another Vodafone prepaid (+91 [protected]) to Vodafone postpaid because of the below explanation from the Vodafone executive (on phone as well as face to face) :
1.With 899Rs plan you will get 2000min (local/std), 1000(National SMS), 2GB Data.
2.Because of porting from other to Vodafone, the first 899 rental will be charged only 699 for first 6month.
3.With my query “I’ll not be able to use 2000min”, he suggested me to share the data with others, with 99Rs/month rental extra.
4.So I decided to convert my prepaid Vodafone [protected] to postpaid and I thought to give this to my wife.
But yesterday after looking at my different different bills for both of the number, in [protected] the monthly rental is 641 (Seems OK) and in [protected](monthly rental 841). So from this I can say
1.The bill for [protected] is not correct, the rental should have been only 99 plus extra charges
2.As per my understanding, there should have been only one bill generated for shared plans.
So please (Humble Request)
1.Activate the plan as per communication happened in the beginning before becoming postpaid customer
2.Re-generate the bill for the previous month as per communication
else I have to throw/port both of the SIM Card with making the payment for the usage and as per the communication happened in the beginning before becoming the Vodafone customer.
As per my understanding and calculation from both of the bills I should pay only the below amount:
For [protected]
Monthly Charges 696 as per bill
Usages charges 65.1 as per bill
National Roaming Charges 10.1
VAS Charges 55
Discounts 200 as per bill
Other Credits/Charges 0 as per bill
Total Charges for [protected] 561.1 as per bill
For [protected]
Monthly Charges 99 as per communicated plan
Usages charges 386.18 as per bill
National Roaming Charges 226.86 as per bill
VAS Charges 147.5 as per bill
Discounts 0
Other Credits/Charges 9.92 as per bill
Total Charges for [protected] 475.26
Common Usages Charges 23.74
Call Charges 0 as per the table above
Mobile internet charges 23.74 as per the table above
SMS charges 0 as per the table above
Over all total charges 1060.1
Service tax (14%)+Swatch Bharat chess (0.5%) 153.7145
Total Payable 1213.8145
So I’ll pay only 1213.82 rupee for the previous month before 8th may in name of one of the number.
