Dear Sir/Madam,
I bought a tata photon plus device in August 2012 with account no[protected] and it was a [protected]@250 limited plan.
In august first week i gave a request for a new device and around on august 10th i got the device.
The delivery guy was named shekhar and he showed me that it was working.
After a day or two it stopped working,
and when i called customer care they said they did not recive my proofs and the account was not activated.
And it was not untill August 24 that my account was activated,But On 19th they generated a bill of rs.91 and mailed it to me.
I called customercare and told them there has been some mistake in billing and asked them to review the bill.
They argued that as the rental of the device i had to pay the charges, But I asked them before even activating the device how can they charge me.
After few calls they cancelled the bill.
Thats only the beginning, my plan was a bundled package 2GB extra free for two months and after the first month they generated a bill saying i Used up all of the
4 GB and the bill was of around 1000.After the final discounts the net bill was adjusted to around 250.
They removed all of the Free Data I was entitled to use with this bill.
I can even say TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS SCAMMED me. YOU ARE A LOUSY USELESS COMPANY.
I WAS SO ANGRY That i stopped using the device and requested for account termination.
I was shoked to see that because i have hardly ever used the tata photon for any work other than the tab.
And i have a Broadband- wifi connection at my home so whenever i am at home theres no need to use photon.
When i am outside i used it for messengers and browsing.
I am DAMN confident that, my data usage never exceeded 500Mb and its a far GENEROUS guess.
In fact the amount of data must be lower than that.
I called numerous times to resolve the issue and DEMANDED the DATA USAGE
Every one of them said they cannot give me details or they dont have the details.
All these months I have been calling them or receiving their calls to get the issue resolved.
But of NO use, They kept generating the monthly rentals of around 150 all these months.
They kept mum for a month and after two months a recovery agent named NAVEEN came to my house,
and told me i have a pending due of rs.785 or something. Then i explained him what was the problem and he acted as if he appologised for DOCOMO's misconduct.
And he said due to the issue he asked me to pay rs.600 insted of 785.
Even though i was in all my rights not to pay,I paid the money as he said that he will deactivate the connection and he ensured that you wont face any problem henceforth.
Another reason i paid the account was to get RID OF DAMN DECIETFUL AND MALICIOUS TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS.

But the NONSENSE of the IDIOTIC COMPANY TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS wasnt finished Yet.
To my Surprise TATA DOCOMO Started to generate bill even after the settlement.
At the beginning my CREDIT LIMIT WAS rs.800 then TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS changed it TO rs.2500 without any notice,
so that they can bill me upto 2500. Really [censored]ng GENIUS idea from TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS.
and During the following months they generated Monthly rental as rs.250 instead of 150 they have been charging from the beginnig.
I have raised complaints with the customer care. they was absolutely no response from them.
As of today they said the outstanding due was rs.926.
TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS never had time to address my problem but all these months they were regularly generating bills.
When tele callers called they were talking as if i was a defaulter, I explained my problem to each and every one of them as clearly as i can.
They even closed the complaints without even informing me.They were so rude in answering the questions.
Every time i got a call I had to start anew from the beginning......thats too much for anyone.
I felt so BAD and HUMILIATED and EXTORTED that I decided to stop Interacting with them. They had no sense of timing and called me throughout the DAY.
The amount of calls which DOCOMO says "reminders" Reached to HARASSMENT and due to that i was forced to avoid them.
Yesterday I got a email from scamful TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS. Mr.Rakesh Kumar who claims to be an advocate emailed me with a notice.
He claims to be an advocate from TATA.

Yesterday i thought, i was the only one who got a persisting complaint/problem with their billing and account.
But when i checked internet i came to know its not true. Your TATA DOCOMO IS FULL OF [censored] and there are hundreds of such victims.
Untill now i was thinking defaulters are the one getting legal notices but YOU DOCOMO PROVED me WRONG.
I had a great respect to the TATA brand but now with the Photon connection i totally lost trust in the company.
ON Personal grounds of humiliation and harassment i demand to know
Why is that they never provided me an explanation to my Problem OF INACCURATE DATA MEASURE?
Why they were unable to provide me with DATA USAGE LOGS ?
How can a executive who is representing a big company be so irresponsible?
Why is that you neglected my right to quality services and treated me as a piggy bank just to generate bil?
Why didnt they Disconnect it upon my request in the second month and after the settlement?
How can you increase the CREDIT LIMIT to rs.2500 from rs.800 without any Notification?
How can you bill total amount for the connection with 0 usage?
How can the customer service guys be so rude to the customers?
At first TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS generated a wrong bill of rs.90,
then TATA DOCOMO PHOTON PLUS scammed me of my Free DATA USAGE saying i used up all of my data in the first month. And when i demanded explanation they kept mum.
They didnt provide DATA USAGE LOGS, THEY did not give me an explanation to the discrepiency. They kept on generating bills without resolving the problem.
IF After the settlement Why is that the account hasnt been disconnected? They increased CREDIT limit to 2500. They harassed me round the clock and forced me to stop negotiating.
They scammed a mail claiming to be Legal notice and tried to exert coercion.
I sincerely request TATA DOCOMO to look into this matter and get this resolved.
Was this information helpful?
TATA TELESERVICES LIMITED / PHOTON PLUS — WRONG BILLING FOR FIRST TWO MONTHS
I PURCHASED TWO PHOTON PLUS WITH 650/- PLAN WHICH HAS 1 GB DOWNLOAD A MONTH. AFTER ACTIVATING ON 3RD OF THE MONTH, MY FIRST BILL SHOULD BE FOR ONE MONTH TO BE ENDED ON 2ND OF NEXT MONTH. INSTEAD, COMPANY DECIDED TO RAISE BILL FOR PART PERIOD BILL FROM 3RD OF THE MONTH TO 22ND OF THE MONTH AND ALLOWED ME PROPORTIONATE USAGE BASED ON 1GB USAGE DURING THE MONTH. THIS LED ME TO MASSIVE LOSS. ALTHOUGH COMPANY DID REFUNDED ME THE EXTRA AMOUNT, BUT ONLY AFTER LONG PURSUATION. OHTER FELLOW WOULD EITHER LOOSE THE STEAM TO FOLLOW UP WITH THE COMPANY AND HAS TO FORGO THE AMOUNT.HOWEVER, WORST THING WAS YET TO COME. IN THE SECOND MONTHS BILL, COMPANY HAS RAISED BILL FOR AROUND RS. 3000/- THEREBY TAKING HUGE AMOUNT FROM ME. SUCH STRONG ARM TWISTING TECHNIQUE DOES NOT AUGUR WELL WITH A REPUTED COMPANY LIKE TATA AND THEIR OFFICERS SHOULD FOLLOW SOME ETHICS WHICH IS THE VISION OF THEIR TOP MANAGEMENT.
