[Resolved]  Vodafone India — Services Activated Without Consent & Charged For The Same

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra

Dear Sir, This is in reference to my conversation with your complaint department (ref no [protected] Mr. Shakeel Ahmed) for my mobile number [protected]. I have been charged Rs. 297.12 as per internet usage charges on my mobile in the current bill dated 18/02/2015. Please give me one explanation that why should i pay any internet charges when I have not applied for the same. I have not send any confirmation sms or any sms to start internet, no call for the same have been done on 111 or 198 nor by any other mode have I applied or requested for internet service on my mobile, then why was the internet service activated without my confirmation or my permission. Why should I pay the charge for some service activated by VODAFONE without my consent or permission, for some data been downloaded by the mobile automatically? This was only possible because this service was initiated on my mobile without my consent or permission. Moreover the UNFRIENDLYNESS of your customer service agent was pathetic, why cant he lodge my complaint for the same, infact the TEAM LEADER on whom the call was transferred was even hesitant to come on the call as the call was kept in waiting for 18 minutes, then too i was not provided with a COMPLANIT which i requested repeatedly times. Where does "Happy to HELP" policy of VODAFONE company go this time... I want complete reversal of 297.12 been charged in my bill and complete stop of mobile service on my mobile number [protected] as I have not REQUESTED nor CONSENTED to any internet service on my mobile, nor was there any such call or msg for activation was send to me anytime. Please confirm about the reversal so that I can proceed with the bill payment accordingly. I do not mind the amount being reversed in the next bill also. Also note that your "Customer Complaint EXECUTIVE" was smart enough to tell me that if I dont pay the 297.12 my Mobile services shall be BARRED / DISCONTINUED, I shall make sure that this complaint been carried forward to respective TRAI & Nodal officer so that this attitude is immediately rectified. Awaiting your valuable URGENT feedback. Also please do all further communication on [protected] (Siddharth) for this regard. Regards, Siddharth / (Son of Bharat Deliwala ~ [protected]) Cell : [protected]
