Hello Guys...I am writing this from patna....i got my connection activated on 18th May 2007. And from the very first week...it has been boiling my head.My plan is HOME 500Every week....at least one/two...sumtime even 4-5 dayz, end up without any connection and tat too in the night when i hve free unlimited download.sumtime they(CC) say it`s all BIhar`s problem, sumtime Patna`s Problem then LOcal exchange problem and there is no one in LOcal Exchange Justifying ne action..so wanna ask if there is any possibility i can get refund of dayz which i ended without any access...plzz let me knw if thr is one / other way out !!Thanking YOU
 
Consult a lawyer / consumer court expert.Court may not be the nicest option, but if nothing else, you may be able to get their attention by merely sending them a legal notice of your intention to sue them.
 
Wouldn't cancelling the connection be cheaper? Perhaps suing would be expensive than 500 per month that you are loosing now.
 
if he wins.. he will get that all back plus few thousands extra for sure!
 
The keywords being"if he wins"
That my friend is the question.

And yes there is a method of claiming refund.
I think U have to have a Complaint number from the CC............and the period of downtime should be continious 3 days or more.
If the complaint docket is closed before 3 days,u get nothing....If its more than 3 days then u can claim refund from Accounts officer(only Prorata basis for the downtime period)

Thats what i found out from TRAI regulations and the Ac officer at my local exchange.

Anyway I once wrote an email to the 2 Guys mentioned below regarding excessive billing and I got the refund after 2 months.
Infact I think after 2 months the complaint reached the Local exchange but with 1 visit and a 3 days waiting time,the refund of 8k odd was issues and adjusted against my future bills for about 6 months NO BILLS.
When The order comes from UP there(I heard the DGM speak To the Prabhadevi exchng about a letter he recieved from InterParliamentary comittee-Telecom when he asked me to come so he could resolve the issue)) ,things move faster

I contacted them via
Address : THE TELECOM REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF INDIA

Telephone No. : 91-11-2321 1934, 2323 3466,

Sir ,

I have had a billing issue with MTNL MUMBAI,Charkop exchange which no one has been able to resolve satisfactorily.Please look into the issue and see how bad MTNL is at redressing customer grievances.

I have been wrongly billed for over Rs 8000 when my usual bill is about Rs 800,only.

Attached below is my correspondence with MTNL and no one has bothered to resolve it till date

heh thanks dude......hope this would b of help.....nd as far as tat three day scenerio goes ....i do hve one wth me....will surely go 4 proceedings !!!Enough of these sarkari Jamais.....!!
 
Give a supari for local exchange employees.............that wud be cheaper(atleast in Bihar) than any legal attack :p
 
Before going for a legal battle, have a talk with the higher authorities of your exchange. May be the matter will be resolved there itself. :thumbsup:
