Mob no: [protected]
I did recharge of Rs. 98 which is GPRS plan on 16/04/2011 at 19:30. After that i did Recharge of 34 & 30 in which i got Rs. 50 talktime. And after 30 min 'boom' my balance was 0.00
After that i tried to call customer care but no one helped me. What a customer can do in this situation.

Here are some details which i got through IVR system of idea:
Your last 5 other deduction details are: 1. Rs: -4.98 for GPRS usage on 16/04/2011 19:35:27, 2. Rs: -4.97 for GPRS usage on 16/04/2011 19:34:43, 3. Rs: -4.96 for GPRS usage on 16/04/2011 19:33:31, 4.

Idea Cellular — Wrong Balance deduction

Respected Sir,

My Idea mobile number is [protected].

Since last two week my talk time balance has been deducted without any prior notice and at the same time i have been receiving sms stating that i have activated so and so VAS service.
When i talked to customer care they simply said that i have activated this service by calling some number, but i did not do that.
They are simply cheating customers.

Please do some need full against them.

Thanks,
Abhishek
Deduction of balance for Dialler tone was deducted. although that was not activated. For this issue, when i contacted to customer care i talked with the customer care executive Mr. Tushar Hande. this person has no sense how to talk with the customers. He is giving some foolish answers. When i told him to transfer call to his team leader / manager. He was told that he cannot transfer the call to his reporting person and disconnected my call while i am talking with him.
This is the worst experience with idea.
"Rs.15 for VAS on 21/06/2012 12:42:58" this is the detail for transaction.
And there is no request sent for such transaction from my idea no.
Yesterday i.e. 5th Dec 2013 at 10:47 PM while browsing the internet on my mobile I suddenly received a message from IZ-ideaCMS
"Dear Customer,
thank you for downloading Dee Caggiano145 from TECHZONE. You have been charged Rs 49. Your balance is Rs. 201.03"
I dont understand since when internet browsing costs you 49 Rs for a page. And there has been no content downloaded also. Moreover I am worried that I could have been told that you have been charged Rs 100 or Rs 1000 or may be a lakh rupees and my balance would have been in the negative. What nonsense is this? I am now scared for opening any page from any link till I have internet provided by Idea.
This is really really annoying. I need someone to look into it and take action against Idea Network and stop these unnecesary SMSes and calls or at least guide me in the right direction.
I am vivek from jaipur. my cell number is [protected] rajasthan. maine ye naya connection liya hai. Connectivity is good. maine 25 ka trail pack liya jisme mujhe mile 500mb for 5 day.lekin maine use kam me nahi liya tha or same day maine 1 bar or 25 ka recharge kara liya to usme mile 130 mb only. lekin net balance add ni huaa or new balance hi raha wo bhi 130 mb. This is very wrong 500mb jiski validity 5 day honi chahiye wo to aapne uda hi di. this very very wrong. i am very very unhappy.

finally mujhe mila 50 rs me 130 mb for 5 day .
that is very wrong.
i want money refund or addition of net balance as soon as possible..
