Paytm pros and cons on various transaction

Paytm was released long time ago for Mobile Recharges. Later, after its great success Paytm was upgraded to offer more online transactions like Movie Tickets, Utility Bills, etc. Now, Paytm is a Fully Functional Online Bank which even gives you Interest on your deposits and recently has launched their Paytm Postpaid credit card.

Considering the Cons of Paytm, I don't think there is any. The only problem I faced while using Paytm is while adding money. Sometime they cut money from your account and show cancelled transaction on Paytm. Later on the money is reversed back to the payment source which was used to do the transaction. Apart from that it is one of the best Mobile Wallets that is currently available in India, that makes life easier.

2. Customer Care is extremely disappointing, they don't have any facility to call the customer care.
