Hi everybody ! am murali worked as cust care executive for an idea cellular from da past 6 months. daily i use to take 200+ calls. most of da call r bcoz of da bleady balance deductions. customers use to scold me like hell. finally, one day came to an end. i've lost my patience n just argued vth customer. finally, i was terminated. u know? each n every call will b recorded n barges a live call for da day. i use to get 97%. no one in da floor does'nt know abt da connecting pc to mob n start browsing. idea prepaid does'nt have a seperate bpo. Aegis Bpo pvt ltd handles each n every call for da prepaid cust's. a small suggestion:- kindly activate do not disturb service. its free service. to activate send an sms:----- START DND send dis to 1909 (toll free). da service vl b activated after 45 days. so guys jus for 45 days it wil b like hell, then after u'll nt receive any promo msg's.
note:- plz kindly make a calls at 6 pm to 8 pm bcoz agents hav to answer well coz, da live bargng vl b done at dat time.

Postpaid Connection / Sim — Idea's abusive cutomer care executives

On 27th Nov. '08I dea people called up and requested me to convert my prepaid to postpaid connection without changing my prepaid number. They said that I would be saving a lot on my STD and local calls and as per their requirement I furnished all the requisite docs on 27th Nov 2008 itself and made the cash payment of Rs. 500 to avail their postpaid services. I was told that within 24 hrs my prepaid sim would be blocked and I will have to use the new sim (provided by them after making the payment of Rs. 500) to continue with the same number but on Nov 2nd both the sims have been blocked by Idea people including my prepaid sim connection and I can no longer use my no. [protected]. I kept calling up IDEA customer department on [protected] but everytime my call use to land up in their depatment and the executive were very rude while dealing with me as they failed to resolve my queries. One of the executive name Shehjad (i dont know whether its a true identity) who was from Idea's prepaid department went to an extent of calling me on my other number (which he got when I was discussing my peoblem with him) from his mobile number [protected] and abused me a lot just because I was annoyed with IDEA executives for not helping me at all and come up with some solution to my problem. His even said that he will ensure that I don't get the positive response from idea at all and he will take all necessary step to create more and more trouble for me. This kind of behaviour from an executive is not acceptable at all and now I don't want to use Idea services anymore and want the complete refund from them. Kindly advice me as to how to proceed in terms of taking a legal action against them.

This executive is calling me contineously and abusing me... my next step would be to lodge a complaint in the area police station. I can't this no more.

Kindly e-mail your suggestion on [protected]@hotmail and let me know how I can teach a lesson to this executive so that he think twice before abusing anybody for that matter.
