Telenor Pakistan is outright scamming its user base by auto subscribing to some 'Nazara Gaming' thing. They deduct 20rs or more each week even though you never subscribed to it. Telenor users keep an eye on your balance history!

#telenor #scam #nazara

Caught them stealing my balance because it always zeroed after some time even with no phone usage. Was suspicious since weeks, talked to their Live Chat agent who confirmed that they are deducting balance each week but would not tell me when it started!
#telenor #pakistan #scam

And #telenor agent said there is no possibility of any refunds. Telenor Pakistan is being run by thieves. I told this to my relative who uses Telenor as well and he found out he was being charged for Nazara gaming thing too without his consent. #telenor #pakistan #nazara #gaming

this is their ongoing scam since a long time.. other users have discovered and reported it too but God knows how many are unaware their balance is being stolen by Telenor Pakistan

in some cases they keep charging even after Telenor said they have stopped charging them. What a scam!

Pakistani consumers are being charged by Telenor Pak for this "Nazara" service that we never heard of.. but a quick search reveals it is an Indian business.. so Telenor is stealing from Pakisani consumers and creating profits for this Indian company?

Just stumbled upon this recent tweet showing users are being shamelessly charged for other random services too not just Nazara Gaming but 'Tamaashaa Music' and who knows what else!

Another one.. of course when / if user finds out they are being cheated, Telenor Pakistan will gaslight them that you must have subscribed it yourself (even though you never did). #telenorpakistan #fake #scam #subscriptions

https://twitter.com/Aliambar/status/1429095635576315909

Their Live Chat customer service agent did that to me as well. He said you must have given consent two times by clicking on some ad on web etc. #telenor #scam

@telenorpakistan stop stealing money from your users!

Apologize, give refund of every single rupee you have charged in name of fake subscriptions (Nazara Gaming, Tamaasha, etc) otherwise there is nothing left except to boycott your thief ass company

https://twitter.com/BeeKay93/status/1393251316886036483

I wonder how many people have not realized their balance is being stolen, because they never notify you for the so called 'subscription' they keep charging money for. Found several similar posts on fb too.

#telenor #subscriptions #fake #scam #fraud

https://twitter.com/BeeKay93/status/1393248758444568583

As in my case, by the time one fully realizes the balance is being stolen, after several weeks, its too late and of-course Telenor will never return the stolen balance.

How much they must be earning with this elaborate ongoing scam countrywide.

Telenor says they have 'zero tolerance' for fraud..

https://twitter.com/Telenor_TGS/status/1354020448095367169

another day, another different Telenor Pakistan user discovers and reports they have been charged and scammed (continuously) for another random subscription. This time it is 'Crickwick'. OMG!

https://twitter.com/ZaidiiG7/status/1446200586546855944

another one: Gameloft

user auto subscribed by Telenor to this gameloft service and charged money!

No shame, No accountability!

#telenor #gameloft #scam #fake #fraud #subscription

No matter how many times user say they HAVE NOT SUBSCRIBED to their stupid service, Telenor still puts the blame on user!

Notice the pattern? because then user is gaslighted and does not ask for refund!

Different fake subscription services have come up so far:
1) Nazara Gaming
2) Tamaasha Music
3) Crickwick
4) Gameloft

Don't know what other scam names Telenor Pakistan is running to fleece users without user consent!

Telenor stealing money from its users:

I do not have twitter clout or anything. But I will keep posting about this serious large scale ongoing fraud by Telenor Pakistan until they stop and refund the amount they have stolen from users.

"Repeat a lie often enough and it becomes the truth"

What a shame, Telenor can steal your money and blame you for it! 10/10

What a criminal racket #Telenor

Telenor charges users for fake subscriptions under various names, probably because it will be easier to identify one single scam by name, so there are more:
Games Club, Game Bar (+ Gameloft, Nazara, Crickwick, Tamaasha Music)

#telenor #scam #telenorpakistan #gamebar #gamesclub

https://twitter.com/RDMNA/status/1428063599726051330

The whole basis for Telenor charging users whatever they like is:
'you must have done it yourself by clicking a link/ad
or.. some kids must have done it on your phone'

And they are getting away with it!

twitter is full of victims, I have seen fb posts too..

Same scam tactic. This Telenor user was auto-subscribed to Tamaasha Play service, he found out, complained they deactivated it, but then activated it again!

Endless stream of Telenor customers complaining their balance has been charged without their consent, but Telenor is always right. Every single one of Telenor Customer is a fool according to Telenor.

This user reports that they were not even using a Smartphone but still got charged for Tamasha Play service.

When will this balance stealing fraud stop from Telenor?

Even if you go all the way, find it, get it deactivated by their horrible support, there is no guarantee it will not be activated again!

Dear Telenor, check the above thread and tell me all of your users are wrong and they are to be blamed for your balance theft. Answer.

It appears PTA has full knowledge of the issue, seeing previous tweets and how much complaints people have in replies. But it gave only a slap on the wrist of telcos. No major consequences for balance stealing which should be considered a Cyber Crime.

Good thing. Moral high ground? Can they do the right thing here and apologize for their shady practices in Pakistan (i.e. charging users without consent)?
