I signed up about 2 years ago after I got many calls from one Rahul. He told me he had to make the sale to pay his exam fees at college so I agreed to buy a subscription for 120 euros. The app I downloaded was just useless and every time i complained, they told me my phone was the problem and the problem was never resolved.
He told me he had a customer in Norway who would call me with Global Hello so I could check the sound quality of the service. Right after he hanged up, I got a call with no caller ID from a lady with a strong Indian accent. I answered in Norwegian and she did not understand a word as she was new in the country. I asked her where she lived and she said Oslo and she could not name a single street in Oslo and I suspect she was calling from India on a landline. I tried to get he to tell me more about Oslo but she insisted that she called only to prove the quality of GlobalHello.
A while later this Rahul called me to say I had to top up for 25 euros but I had hardly called for 10 euros of the 120 euros I paid and I rejected his latest offer of 25 euros for 50 euros of call time. I called my bank and cancelled my card and got a new card.
A few days later a lady called me to say that my CC was not valid and she wanted my new CC details so she could update my details in the system. By now I knew this was a scam and hung up.
Meanwhile this Rahul kept calling me to help me with my problems. By that time I had gone tired of the whole service and deleted the app.
The same lady called back again about a year ago to tell me that she was taking over customer service for Rahul who had been killed in a road accident and I told her I was not interested.
As soon as she hung up, I called Rahul's mobile number in India and he answered and he again tried to sell me an extension.
Today a Subramaniam/Chandran? from Global Hello called me and he would no take a no for a no and he would not let me speak while telling me about all that had been said about GlobalHello. After about 30 minutes of trying to be polite I hung up on him.
He called again and I had to block him.
This company must be shut down. Something interesting happened just after I gave them my CC details first time. The lady from my bank called me to ask if I had authorized a payment of 120 euros. Just this should have rang big bells in my head from the beginning.
Yesterday I got a call again from from Subramaniam calling from yet another number, 859 85 48. I had already blocked +[protected]. He was begging me to buy a subscribtion and he offered me calls for 1/2! US cents a minute. Please sir, I promise you sir...I told him that I had 8 hours of free calls abroad a month from my provider but he did not seem to listen and he kept on saying what I had heard from Asha, Rahul and Neha and I just hung up on him and blocked the number.
This is sounding like terror on the phone and I dont understand where Global Hello find their sales persons from, Nigeria? They are certainly good at begging. This Subramaniam was kind enough to give me his mobile number +[protected] which he insisted I note down even though I told him I was not interested.
I dont need cheap calls to India or elsewhere and Global Hello should educate their sales people to stop bothering and begging people.
To all of you who have not heard from them, dont talk with them. Be rude and just hang up as that is the only language they understand.
I was cheated into being a custommer a few years ago. I stopped using the service and told Rahul off when he called to offer me better rates.
A few minutes later my bank called me to ask if I had authorised a payment of 150 euros. I cancelled my card and got a new one.
This fraud company should be stopped.
