Airtel Virtual Calling Card
Excess charges levied for calls to Australia

Sir,

I purchased a Virtual Calling Card (prepaid for 225) paying Rs.225/-.I was informed that calls to Australia made through this account would be charged at Rs. 3.75 paise per minute. Believing that, I made few calls to Australia. To my surprise, I was charged at the rate of Rs.9 per call per minute. As a result, even before making 10 calls or so, the entire prepaid amount was drained.

I lodged complaints with Airtel Customer Care - both through mobile and net as detailed below:

1. 0223086087 dt. 23.2.2010

2. 0224243496 24.2.2010

3. 0225012297 25.2.2010

4. 0226005132 25.2.2010

5. 0226013742 26.2.2010

6. 0226052562 26.2.2010 No given for the complaints lodged through mobile phone.

I give below the regn nos. for the complaints recorded through Net:

240220108113 24.2.2010

240220108934 24.2.2010

250220107705 25.2.2010

0226013742 26.2.2010

My grievance still remains unsolved. The company is publicsing some rate and charging the consumers excessively.

I now take up the matter through this forum.
