The vodaphone customer care is very poor. First of all, thery are not clear on the actions they need to do on complaint.
When I call 1st time after lost of my sim at 9PM : The response was I need to go to police station and get the FIR then need to go to local Vodafone store to block the sim. I requested them to block it for tempararily as it should not get misused by any one because I could fine Vodashore during night to block it. Their response was they can not do that and their complany policy will not allow that. Even if they make request to block, it will take 3 working days to get sim blocked.

When I call 2nd time after lost of my sim at 10PM: The response from assoicate that he need to inform my mobile information to his supervisor. He will block it very soon. I required to go to vodastore with police FIR copy to get new sim with same number.
Result: They did not block sim and it was active after 10AM next day.

When I call 3rd time to get status of Sim block request I made earlier at 11AM: The response was the SIM was active and not blocked and it is not possible to block without FIR from police station and that too need to be done at local voda phone store.

Then I went Voda phone store first to inform: The reply was no need of FIR copy, just need ID proof and address proof to block old sim and issue new SIM.

The Conclusion is: No customer security avaiable for Voda phone subscribers. If you lost your sim, it can be misused customer care never bothers on that. So be careful of your self.

i called to customer care on 13th march for deactivating the std plan after 3 days till the plan was not deactivated again called up but the way customer care executive spoke to me is very bad ...very rudely they used to speak the executive names are jitendra deshpande, and avinash thuosif don't have common sense ...they never transfer the call to their bloody supervisors they used to tell supervisors are in meeting .

Hi,

I have sent many mails to VODAFONE CARE, please read the complaint that I sent to Vodafone.

AFTER WAITING FOR 5 DAYS ALSO. THEY DID NOT REPAY ME. THEY LITERALLY ROBBED MY POCKET.

IF THE FEATURE IS NOT WORKING THEN WHY IT IS PUT UP THERE.?. THEY ARE TAKING MONEY FROM THE ACCOUNT IN A FRACTION OF SECOND AND NOTHING IS HAPPENING.
THESE PEOPLE ARE REAL CHEATERS.

Hello,

I did online recharge using your http://www.vodafone.in/Pages/index.aspx site to [protected] ...I have selected Karnataka (which is correct) and YES BANK. I chose 201 rupees full talk time 30 day validity option. I filled up the information, it redirected to YES BANK I filled up my customer ID and Password. I typed 201, clicked the only option, I got password SMS to my another number ([protected]) tagged with YES BANK account, I typed the password, did the transaction to Vodafone BILLDESK. I recieved confimation page with confirmation number (54508). My cell is not yet recharged. I rechecked by filling confirmation number and my cell number in vodafone site. It said id is invalid, even I called your cutomer care(111) 6 times. First agent told me to wait for 1 hour, 2 agent told me to wait for 24 hours, 3rd agent told me to half an hour to recheck it. 4th agent told me to wait for 2 hours that an update is going on, 5th agent told me to wait again, and told if recharge not done then ur money ll be taken back to my YES BANK account.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON TO REACHARGE JUST 201 rupees.

EITHER VODAFONE OR YES-BANK ONLINE THINGS ARE NOT WORKING WELL

I am attaching the print screen of the things done and my YES BANK summary

please check them also...

Paid Rs.5999 for the wireless mobile connect on 14/02/09..It never worked properly since the day of installation. Vodafone customer service is pathetic and Vodafone stores at four bungalow, Andheri(W), mumbai is like a fish market with many customers yelling loud at the sales people.The main interest of Vodafone management is to con the customers into buying thier unbaked services and products. I tried to return the product same day as it was not properly working but Vodafone conned me with sweet talk that the problem will be solved soon and more than a month passed without any solution. India will really shine if the management focuses on product quality, service level committmentsinstead of wasting more than 100 employee hours in deceiving the customers with false hopes and aggressive selling tactics of poorly tested products and services..

I requested for 2 Add-on cards on my corporate connection ([protected]), the request was processed by Amaan S from Vashi vodafone gallery, Pooja Bhatija tried selling fresher connection (SIM card by paying Rs.99/-) said i can later change the plan to corporate plan, i did not agree because i was supposed to get to 2 add on cards free on my corporate connection, she said she wanted to give me SIM cards for Rs.99/- because they will get activated with in 2 hours & the Add-on cards will take more than a week to get activated, i said i was ok with it. I was not carrying my Address proof (Electricity bill) with me, so i said i will mail a scanned copy later, they took a photocopy of my PAN card, clicked my snap & gave me 2 SIM cards ([protected], [protected]) on 21st Feb'09. On 24th Feb09, i got a verification call, i mailed the Scanned electricity bill on Pooja's Mail id (Pooja.[protected]@vodafone.com) on 26th Feb09. The SIM they said will be activated within 48 Hours, it din't happen, kept following up with customer service, they kept saying that it will get activated within 48 Hours, it din't happen hence visited the Vashi gallery again on 8th March'09, met Aarti Pandit, gave her the original Electricity bill again, she kept a copy & said that my numbers will get activated with in 48 hours, since it did not happen called Customer care on 11th March'09 spke to Sameer, he again said the connections will be activated with in 48 Hours, it still did not happen, hence called vodafone customer care again on 13th march09 spoke to Tariq, he said he cannot access & process my request as the concerned department does not work at night and that i will ahve to call up next day in the morning, i asked him to transfer the line to the supervisor, he put me on hold for a while, came back on line and said the supervisor is in a meeting & cannot take my call, i asked him to put in a request for the supervisor to call me back & asked for the supervisors name, he gave the name as Dev Sonar. no body called me back, today i again called the customer service, the executive said i will have to go to the vashi vodafone gallery and get it sorted out.
This is the worst customer service i have experienced till date. i want a solution for my problem

The errors in the billing are being done at the DHBVN office and the customers are at stake.

The Bill No.5839531 was incoorect due to wrong billing input by the department, The meter reading shoud have been 9205 and was recorded by your department as MR 99205 and the billing amount was 435615.00, Then I visited the Palla office and registered the complaint vide no. 221262 on[protected] and had given the complaint to the Je in the Power supply office personally at Mathura Road. They visited my house and has taken the current reading as 9446 and hence I paid the excess bill alongwith the next billing cycle for amount 2697.00 which got cleared on 13-12-08 from my bank which also did not got adjusted in the next billing cycle and the arrears were appearing vide bill no6374213. Also in the same bill the min bill amount was charged though I've paid for the consumed units along with the bill no 5839531. This is wrong and excess billing charged to the Customers.

Again I've received the bill No. 6813987 where again the min bill chargedsare charged, arrears are charged as 3219.30 and sundry charges/allowances charged for 7225.78, the total billing amount appearing as 11017.00.

Due to the Errors being done by your department we are facing lot of problems of billing and harrasment when we visit the Palla Office and have to take leaves to get this resolved and every month a new error or problem is there to harrass us.

Please resolve this at the earliest or else I would take this forward to the consumer group or to the media.

Looking forward for your support at the earliest.

Best Regards...Seema

As a anguished and harassed mobile phone customer I want to narrate my unfortuante
experience in using a post paid connection from vodafone.
I availed a corporate post paid connection from vodafone last month.the vodafone has
put a credit limit on my post paid phone and whenever my outstanding payment increases
the credit limit, all the outgoing calls and message facilities are debarred without
any prior intimation from the vodafone.When tried calling the customer care, the automated
caller system is designed in such a way that we will not be able to contact the customer care
executives.Please imagine the stress I had to endure when I discover that the outgoing call
facilities are debarred without any prior alert when I want to make a critical call at 10 pm.
The vodafone sales personnels are very clever to trap the customers in luring them to buy the
connections, but dont reveal the sensitive information.As a matter of settling scores,
I have decided not to make the outstanding payment to vodafone and want to highlight all
mobile phone subscriber to be watchful about availing connections from vodafone.

I am one of the vodafone customer having mobile no;[protected] for the past 2 years. I am not able to pay the bill amount for the last 3 months due to some financial problem. I have clearly explained to the vodafone peoples when they called before 10 days regarding this. Now One person named Ms.Priya has called me from the number [protected] at 11.30 pm for 5-6 times, since i am in driving i am not able to pick the call.Then she called me on 2.00pm, i told her clearly that i am having financial problem and i wont able to pay the bill this month. Suddenly she has used very bad words regarding remitting the payment. Other than this she has traced my Fiance no from my Call details and spoke to her in bad words regarding the payment. It frustrates me very much and i am very much wounded regarding this kind of conversation. I am mentally disturbed and i want to know why these peoples are behaving like this. I have also lodged a complaint on vodafone customer care and complaint no is ;[protected] and also i have cleared my entire outstanding today at tirupur vodafone store at 15.02.55 pm for Rs.2210/- vide receipt no;THT-1-[protected], After remitting the payment also i had received mail form Vodafone Legal Dept at 7.30pm today. I have enclosing the mail also for ur reference. i want proper justice for the incident happen and i have also send cancellation Request through my mail id and the same is acknowledged.

Points to be Noted;

1.Rude and Rubbish behaviour from the person.
2.Tracing my Call Details without my Knowledge.
3. After making payment i have received Legal notice.

This complaint is regarding Vodafone Hyderabad
I have taken a vodafone connection on 20th Feb, 2009 (Biggest mistake of my life). I have got my black berry services activated by paying Rs.6999 as annual rent. I have received a call on 9th March, 2009 that my accountlimit is exceeded as my current outstanding is Rs.1990 after adjusting Rs.6999/. I was shocked to hear it and asked her to check my bill. Then I have checked online bill (after great effort) and I found out that even after paying Rs.6999 annual charges for black berry I was charged monthly rental for blackberry of Rs.899/-. Then I written to customer care and also nodal officer. On 10Th March, they disconnected my services. I have called up customer care and informed him that bill is wrong. However he was not able to help me out and he simply told me that sir if you want to activate service please make payment. He told me that I understand that you have been billed excess and also it is very clear that there is excess billing but still you would have to make payment to activate services

Is this not some type of goondaism. You bill the customer whatever you want and then ask customer to make payment, after you make payment, we would reveserse extra charges. This is a clear loot.

I have never got so much frustrated in my life but today Was the day when I have realised that in 29 years of life I have made my first mistake by choosing vodafone. Please never select vodafone. Even after reading this if your buying vodafone then you are biggest fool
