Airtel
Unnecessary SMS and charges

I have been receiving some useless messages, jokes and cricket alerts from Airtel. I ignored them for some time with the assumption that these are free promotion messages. One day I received a message saying that you will be chaged Rs 5 everyday for cricket updates. I called up the Airtel Customer Care to enquire about this. To my surprise they told me that I have opted for these services which is completely baseless. Its a shame how Airtel and other similar service providers operate, just to acheive their business targets. Also the sms says, you can unsubscribe by dialing some xyz number. I tried for an hour but all I heard was: due to some "technical" problem unsubscribtion cannot be done.

Company: Airtel
Country: India
