Idea Cellular — Incorrect info on 3G bundle offer with Nokia Lumia 610

I purchased Nokia Lumia 610 a few days back which has an offer of 2GB per month free 3G internet for 4 months.

After I got my handset and micro sim activated, I dialed Idea Customer Care to get my free 3G activated. The customer care executive told me that the offer is valid only with the sim cards that are bundled with the Lumia handsets.

Nowhere Idea or Nokia declares that this offer is valid only with bundled sim card nor any vendor sells Nokia Lumia handsets with Idea/Airtel Sim cards bundled with it.

Both Nokia and Idea/Airtel are duping the customers by giving insufficient information about the offer.

Please take necessary actions.

Regards,
Rahul Rao

I recently bought Nokia Lumia 720 having 2GB 3G data free offer for idea subscriber. I am trying to activate this offer on my mobile for past ten days but failed. The way it is being handled by Idea & Nokia it looks like typical fashion street hawker style. Idea asks to contact the retailer from where you bought handset or the Nokia Care. The Nokia care says contact Idea. Both are behaving as if they do not know each other. And the best part is, Idea asks customer visits to the nearest MYIDEA store. And when one visits the executive at the store calls up the 12345 (Cust Care) number for issue resolution. Visiting MYIDEA I always feel its a way to showcase how much the company values its customers.
