Few days back I received a mail from airtel corporate connection department informing me of court notice filed against me for not paying the Bill.
I read the mail after the date to appear in court had already passed.
Actually when I got transferred from bangalore to pune I asked Airtel to discontinue my connection. I did not make payment because I had not recieved the Bill. They cancelled my connection without asking for payment or sending the Bill.
After sometime one person from airtel called me asking to make payment. I asked him how to make the payment. He told me to do so online which i couldn't do as my connection was already closed. I tried to pay to nearest Airtel center but they said this is Maharashtra centre and you cannot pay here. Meanwhile I asked the person to send me the bill to my mail id but i didn't receive it. On further asking for any alternate method to pay the bill he provided me one address to send a cheque in favour of airtel. But I told him that as soon as i receive the Bill I will make the payment. That person talked to me very rudely and said you people dont pay the bills and make useless excuses and cut the phone.
I ignored the matter but then they sent me a court notice saying that i have to appear in bangalore court. As I am in Pune it is very difficult for me to go to Bangalore.
How should I deal with this matter. Should I pay the bill without receiving/going through the bill or hire a lawyer for this? Please help.
