Superonline Unauthorized Additional Charge "Other Service Fees"

June 14, 2025 5:17 PM34

I have been paying a fixed monthly fee of ₺350 for my Superonline internet service. However, in the June 2025 billing period, an unexpected charge of ₺207.40 was added under the heading "Other Service Fees." I was not informed about this charge beforehand—there was no SMS, email, or any kind of notification. Additionally, the invoice contains no explanation regarding what this service includes. This lack of transparency is not only troubling but also raises concerns under the Consumer Protection Law. When I contacted customer service, I was not given a satisfactory explanation. I am requesting the cancellation and full refund of this unjustified charge. If this issue is not resolved, I will pursue all legal channels, including filing a complaint with the Consumer Arbitration Committee. It is unfortunate that a well-known company like Superonline engages in such vague and undisclosed billing practices. I expect the ₺207.40 charge to be removed or refunded, along with a detailed written explanation for the fee.

Dear Superonline Officials, In your response sent to me, it was stated that the amount of 207.40 TL reflected on my bill is a reactivation fee charged due to the closure and reopening of my line. However, this explanation contradicts both my service history and regulatory requirements. I request a written and official explanation on the following matters: - Submission of system records regarding the date and reason for the closure of my line, 1. On what date and by which method (SMS, e-mail, call) I was informed about this closure and reactivation process, 2. Why this fee is shown under an ambiguous title such as “Other Service Fees” on my bill, 3. Submission of technical LOG records proving that my line was actually closed, 4. If the service was not actually interrupted, an explanation of how the reactivation was carried out. I would also like to state that: * A fee was charged to me without my explicit consent. * There was no interruption in the service, and the reactivation process stated by you did not actually take place. * The fee charged in this situation is contrary to Article 4/3 of the Law No. 6502 on the Protection of Consumers and constitutes an unfair term. * Therefore, I request a refund of the fee, otherwise I will apply to the Consumer Arbitration Board and, if necessary, initiate legal proceedings.
