This is with reference to Order Number: 8462418928 in which I tried to pay Electricity bill of MPPKVVCL of Rs 1195.0 through PayTM. But to my surprise Rs 1394.0 got deducted for paying Rs 1195.0 from my account.
On checking I found that Home Burglary Insurance of Rs. 2.0 Lakh for 1 year for Rs.199.0 was forcefully imposed on me without my acceptance.
Then immediately I applied for cancellation of both the transactions i,e.
a)Electricity bill of MPPKVVCL of Rs 1195.0
b)Home Burglary Insurance of Rs. 2.0 Lakh for 1 year for Rs.199.0
But to my surprise I got refund of only Electricity bill of MPPKVVCL of Rs 1195.0 and no refund for Home Burglary Insurance of Rs. 2.0 Lakh for 1 year for Rs.199.0.
Then I requested PayTM to refund Rs.199.0 deducted forcefully for Home Burglary Insurance of Rs. 2.0 Lakh for 1 year at the earliest as I opted for cancellation of both transactions & I got conformation of cancellation of both transactions as well.
Now the company is asking to uncheck the insurance option before making payment.
