[Resolved]  Idea Cellular — Fraud - Idea Cellular

Address:Gujarat

I've never seen such Fraud in Telecom Industry. Idea Cellular is one the WORST and FRAUD telecom service provider in India.

I've bought a new Idea prepaid card from My Idea show room (inform of Rajeev Tower, OP Road). My sim card not activated since 1week, when I met their customer care executive, they told me that "your sim won't activate because you used max simcard with same id proof" (very rudely). But their Senior manager told me to wait for 2-3 days for any solution. When I go there after 3 days, they told me Its not possible. So I requested him to refund my money & ID proof and take your sim card. But neither they refund me nor give me my id proof.

Request You IDEA Cellular, If you can't provide me service, please refund my money with my ID proof. Because I know You can misuse my ID Proof anytime.

If anyone can help me in this I'll be thankful.

Thanks
Ajit

Idea Cellular — fraudulent activity

Hi All

Complaint is as follows:

Amount of Rs 600 was given for new connection of Idea on 25-10-08 to Agent - Aditya from the franchisee Idea Shopee, 134 Najabgarh road, Nangloi.

Acknowledgemt was also given by him.( Sim No. -[protected])

Nearly two months have been crossed, and there is no activation of sim number. When i approached Pitam Pura Idea Showroom regarding this, concerned person simply answered that i cannot do anything beside registring your complaint. No action was taken after that.

Further, when i called owner of shop, Mr Manoj, then again he said that he doesn't know anyone like aditya and he can solve this matter if we will send copy of required documents.


Now, i want a clarification that is this the customer service they are giving to us. Also i want my money back with the compensation

With regards
Puneet Singh

**************************************************************************
IDEA HAS INTRODUCED RS 31 TOP UP FOR WHICH STD CHARGES WOULD RE.1 PER CALL.
I HAVE RECHARGED FOR RS.31ON 04/06/2009(09:25:20PM). But they are continuously charging Rs 1.50 inspite of collecting money from me FOR THE OFFER. Their customer care is always busy and after many trials/ many calls i spoke to their customr care executives on 06/06/2009 almost three times and yet they continue to charge me Rs. 1.50.I faced the same problem last month and After many requests they executed the offer and they dont refund the money charged extra after subscribing for the offer and the number of days of the offer are neither increased. I request the idea management and DOT to make sure that customer like me should not be cheated and make false offers. I request you to take proper action and refund the extra amount charged on the calls after subscribing to the offer since the month of May.

Idea telecom — harssment in issuing number

Six days back i applied for an add-on connection from Idea, as I have already been using Idea connection, all verifications had been done when i got my first connection. Now when i applied for the addon connection, i submitted the documents again and i was assured that the number will be activated within 24 hrs. But even after 5 days it has not been activated and today they are saying that salary slip is missing from the documents so they can not activate the number.

Now that I have waited for the connection for 5 days, i dont know what should i do. I have wasted about 5 hrs of my precious time to call customer care.
Now i am out of station, so i can not even go back to show room and submit the document.
I have faced a lot of dis-appointment and harassment from Idea. The simple thing should have been done that number should have been activated and given some 7 days of time to submit the document.

Idea telecom — Fraud and worst service provider

IDEA.. The worst and fraud company that i have ever seen i am using the SIM of Idea with the number of[protected] was called to UK number even though the mobile was lying beside me switched off, currency of Rs 9.19 deducted, other than this i have faced some other problems like simply activating the some schemes without our permission and deducting money once for a month . when we asked by calling customer care they tell us that we activated these kind of schemes and all. Now those idea people are also charging money, when we call to customer care..
respected sir, kindly give justice to us and give a right warning or else just close the bloody idea telecoms services.

Hope the trust we have in you will not disappoint us

Avinash

Idea Cellular — Fraud

I have received a text message from IDEA Cellular regarding "free text message offer" on May 27th, 2012. As per the message, I was offered to send daily 100(local+national) messages for 10 days. As per the offer, I was able to send message without any charge till 28th evening, but on 28th night when I have sent the message, I was charged as per the regular text messages charge even I haven't sent more than 30-40 messages since the starting day of the offer.

When I have called to customer care on May 28t and 29, they answered that offer is closed(for which IDEA Cellular has not informed me in either way by text message or call) and that's why I was charged as per the regular text message charge. But as per the message which I have received from IDEA Cellular, I can send daily 100 free messages till 10 days stating from May 27th.

When I have asked customer care executive to refund my wrongly deducted balance, they have replied that it is not possible as offer is closed. But as per the message which I have received on May 27th, 2012, still I can send daily 100 free message as I am not informed by IDEA Cellular about the closing of the offer as they have informed me about availability of the offer.

I have attached the screenshot of message which I have receiver from IDEA Cellular.

I request you to do the needful to stop such kind of fraud from the telecom company.

Dear Ajit,

We regret the inconvenience caused to you. May we request you to reply to us with your complete account details such as Full name, mobile no. and your alternate contact number.

Thanks & Regards,
Idea Cellular
