Hi ,My primary number is a Vodafone Post paid which is 14 yr old.I tried MNP for a secondary Vodafone Prepaid number which I use for data & voice while roaming.I gave the request to go from Vodafone Prepaid to MTNL Postpaid (All MTNLs are 3G ready for roaming on the BSNL Network without any monthly package)I gave the forms to port to MTNL on 28th April 2011, and promptly on 29th I got the Rejection message due to "The Number or range is in Contractual Obligations"Please contact 111 or visit the Vodafone Store. I tried 111, the standard policy is to put people wanting to port out on hold for 15 mins and then disconnect. I tried twice and both times this happened.Now I would like to tell everybody that the Official Standard Company Policy of Vodafone is to reject all first attempts of all Porting out Vodafone Numbers with the reason "The Number or range is in Contractual Obligations". Then the second official policy is that Customer Care people will put all MNP Port out callers on hold for 15 mins and disconnect. This policy is being implemented so that it becomes really inconvenient for users to port out, and a lot of folks wanting to port out will get fed up and give up on porting out.Anyways I visited the Vodafone Vasant Vihar store, and there were girls on all the counters. I took a token and waited for my turn. And when I got to the counter, I told the girl at the counter " I pity you guys that you have to sell your souls, and speak lies, just to keep your jobs". I asked her that is it a company policy to put people on hold for 15 mins and disconnect. I told her all over the Internet there are hundreds of users posting that they have to go through these 2 company policies that Vodafone has, first to reject all port out requests, then not take calls on Customer Care. So I asked her, "You succeeded in wasting my time and getting me here, now can I know the reason for the rejection of the Port out request".She asked me the retention question "Sir why do you want to leave Vodafone" My answer " Because I just realized that you are a company without ethics, and you have a pathetic service." She said she has put in a request and within 2 days, "The Number or range is in Contractual Obligations" will be removed for my number.I told her in clear words, if I need to come again for this to the store, then God only help them, and I left.Let's see what happens now.Styler
