As my information in their database was incorrect I was asked to convert from prepaid to postpaid for minimum of 3 months to get the records rectified. I converted to postpaid on 1st May 2016. I was told i can switch back to prepaid anytime after 3 months. On visiting the store on 1st Sept, 2016 I was told that as my bill cycle was from 25th-24th, I can only apply for the conversion between 25th-30th of the month. On visiting the store on 25th Sept 2016, I was told to come on either 27th-28th Sept 2016. As they were weekdays I raised a concern of not being able to visit again & asked to get the conversion initiated. I was made to pay my bill, prepaid SIM card (29 Rs) amount & my first recharge amount(85 Rs) on 25th Sept and told my prepaid SIM would get activated with in 3-4 working days. I waited till 30th Sept still there was no update on ghe conversion. On calling the call centre I was told that the conversion had not been initiated. I was made to visit the store again for the conversion. And now that the conversion has taken place I don't hv a lot balance as the minimum balance is not been credited. I cannot go for any recharge before the default first recharge. It's been 2 days I have been managing on 0 balance and on calling the customer care centre, I have not got any help. The care centre that I visited was the 4bungalows branch and every time I Hv visited, all I see are unsatisfied customers as the employees there are uncooperative and always provide incorrect information. This has been the experience of many of the Vodafone customers.

Complaint marked as Resolved Got a call from a Vodafone Executive. She was lovely, cooperative & patient. She was all ears for the concerns I raised and promised quick revert and she lived up to it. She took details of the store i visited and point of contact. She called the store and took the necessary steps & initiated the refund of the balance amount within 20 mins of our conversation.
Vodafone India customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

Updated by Jyotsna Kher After logging the complaint, I just got a recharge of Rs 50 done from Vodafone side. However, it's not the service I paid for. I paid for my first recharge of 85Rs which gives me full talk time and 50MB data package. The recharge I got was of Rs 50 with 40Rs talk time and no data package. Can Vodafone do anything right!?

Updated by Jyotsna Kher On calling the customer care about the wrong recharge, I am told that there is no recharge of 85Rs in their record. So is Vodafone trying to portray that they charge their customers with a higher amount service, provide a lower amount service and not keep a record of it? I was made to pay my bill on 25th Sept + sim card charge + 85Rs first recharge and I am told that I didn't pay for the first recharge? Is it possible to get a sim card from a store and not pay for the first recharge? Proofs below!
