Airtel
Billing Dispute

My name is Virendra Singh. My Airtel number is 8800799210. This is a CUG plan. I was using 3 GB GPRS plan for Rs. 198. My billing cycle is 5th to 4th every month. On 22nd October I made a call to customer care and expressed my desire to discontinue the plan. Even I asked to executive that, is it possible or when billing cycle will be over then it will get discontinue. He told me it's possible and advised me not to use GPRS from now otherwise you will be charged. I did the same. But when I received bill in November. The GPRS rental was charged from 5th of October to 21st of October. As I told I discontinue this service on 22nd at 11 in night but executive discontinue my service from 21st of October so data which I used on 22nd till morning that was of Rs 2559 have been added in my bill. It was mistake of representative of Airtel who discontinue my service one day earlier as I had given request on 22nd. I made a call to customer care regarding this issue they were agree with my concern but expressed that they are not authorized to deduct this much amount and advised me to call Nodal Officer. I called Nodal officer and did not get any positive response even I have been advised to close the number. I was shocked to here this as I was one year old customer. I called to Appellate authority and they gave me discount of only Rs 800/- After discount I had to pay 2825 Rs. I thought a lot and paid full amount but I got hurt from this type of behavior of Airtel as they were telling that I am right but they can’t do anything. If I did want I could have not paid any amount and could close my number but I paid only to show that how much cheap they are. I have decided to port this number. I talked to my Advocate, he advised me I can sue Airtel. Well I have decided to port the number.

Guys I just want your thought that should I sue Airtel as I was big fan of it… now I m leaving it. It’s feeling too bad but I have to.
