Payment failed but amount deducted HESCOM bill paid on Bajaj Finserv

One of the most common issues users face is a failed payment where the amount is deducted from their bank account, but the bill status is not updated. This can happen due to network interruptions, server errors, or discrepancies between the payment gateway and HESCOM’s systems.

Steps to resolve the issue:

  1. Check your payment status: Open the Bajaj Finserv App and navigate to the ‘Transaction History’ section to verify if the payment is marked as successful or pending.
  2. Wait for 24 hours: In most cases, reconciliation between the app and HESCOM happens within 24 hours.
  3. Contact customer support: If the issue persists, you can raise a complaint through the app’s support section or contact HESCOM’s customer grievance cell. Provide details such as the transaction ID, payment date, and amount.
  4. Escalate if necessary: If the deducted amount is still not reflecting in your bill status after 48 hours, escalate the issue by emailing HESCOM or contacting their helpline.

Pro Tip: Use the Bajaj Finserv App’s payment tracker feature to monitor real-time updates on your bill payment status.

Wallet amount not refunded after failed HESCOM payment

Failed payments can also result in wallet balances being deducted without a refund being processed. This can be frustrating, but rest assured, the Bajaj Finserv App has mechanisms in place to address such discrepancies.

How to handle wallet refund issues:

  1. Verify the transaction: Check the ‘Wallet Transactions’ section in the Bajaj Finserv App to confirm the deduction.
  2. Understand refund timelines: Refunds for failed payments are typically processed within 7-10 working days.
  3. Raise a query: If the refund is not credited within the expected timeline, use the app’s support feature to raise a query. Provide all necessary details, including the transaction ID and deduction date.
  4. Contact HESCOM if needed: If the issue is not resolved by the app, you can also reach out to HESCOM’s customer grievance cell for further assistance.

Why this matters: Ensuring timely refunds helps maintain trust and provides financial clarity, enabling you to reattempt the payment without worrying about duplicate deductions.

App freezes when paying HESCOM bill via Bajaj Finserv

Technical glitches, such as the app freezing during a transaction, can disrupt the payment process. These issues are often caused by outdated app versions, insufficient device storage, or unstable internet connections.

Troubleshooting steps:

  1. Update the app: Ensure that you are using the latest version of the Bajaj Finserv App by checking for updates in the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
  2. Clear cache: Go to your device’s settings, select the Bajaj Finserv App, and clear the app cache to resolve performance issues.
  3. Check your internet connection: Ensure that your device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi or mobile data network before initiating the payment.
  4. Restart your device: Sometimes, restarting your phone can resolve temporary glitches.
  5. Try again later: If the issue persists, wait for a few minutes before reattempting the payment.

Pro Tip: Use a high-speed internet connection and ensure that other apps are closed to optimise the app’s performance during payments.
