i have subscribed for a 3 day internet service. by paying fully paying the subscribing amount . But after 3 days the package is getting auto renewed and payment is automatically cut from my prepaid balance. I am not sure who give authorization to auto renew. if i asked for a 3 days service please provide only that. My complaint is justified by TRAI Guildlines.Attached Below TRAI Issues Guidelines for Renewal of Special Tariff Vouchers for Protecting the Interests of Consumers The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) here today issued guidelines on renewal of Special Tariff Vouchers (STVs) pertaining to data and SMS packs offered to consumers by service providers, for protecting the interest of consumers. TRAI had received complaints of customers regarding renewal of STVs without their consent, after the expiry of the STVs. While activating an STV, the consumer is seldom aware of auto-renewal of such an STV and is forced to either continue with the STV or to seek deactivation. The service providers had submitted to TRAI that, in some cases, the offer for the STV provides for renewal and such renewal may be beneficial to consumers who may want to use such vouchers continuously. The Authority considered the issue and was of the view that such renewals could be beneficial for consumers if explicit consent of the consumer is taken at least once for such renewals. Accordingly, the Authority after considering all aspects and the interest of consumers issued regulatory guidelines through the Telecom Consumers Protection (Seventh Amendment) Regulations, 2013. The salient features of the regulations are given below: · Renewal of STVs may be allowed for SMS and Data packs (having validity more than 7 days) through Opt-in facility (By taking one time explicit consent of the consumer for such renewals through a prescribed procedure). · A toll-free short code opting out of renewal of STVs at any time through a defined procedure. · Inform the consumer, three days before the expiry of the validity period of STV, through SMS, the due date of renewal, the charges for renewal, the terms and conditions of renewal, the toll free short code for deactivation of STV. · A time frame till 15th January, 2014 is allowed for implementation of the regulations. For any further clarifications please contact Mr. A.Robert J. Ravi, Advisor (CA&QOS) on 011-23230404 or e-mail: advqos@trai.gov.in.
