My sim is from maharashtra, my sim card shows "no service".
I tried all these things
1. Manual select network
2. Two to three times restart the phone
3. Pull sim out and place it again

I tried to reach to the nearest vi shop but they ask for money to restart the sim (not for recharge they say that it is for security from virus and all )

      Dear sir,
      My sim card is not showing any network for last 2 weeks.
      I tried to solve the problem by restarting the phone, reinserting the sim, changing the phone.

      On checking with customer care, they tell me that all the services are active in my number but i don't see any network signal.

      I have lodged a complaint with the customer care, but there is no step taken yet and i cant see status because they send a verification code the same number which is not working. How can i receive a message when i don't have any network.

      My IDEA Nos is [protected]
      almost 15 days i cant use my internet pack also which i recharge to do specific work, becz of this i got lot of stress.kindly take action against the issue and also take action against the person who is lethargic even the twice the complaint was reported.

                  Address: Iraq Gate Project, Gare No 1, near Cadmus international School

                  Hi currently i living in Iraq for past 11 months. My idea sim is worked with available mobile networks. But recently my idea sim is not working and shows no service..

                  I can not choose mobile network manually (Available networks : Korek(2g, 3g, 4g) / zain(2g/3g/4g) and zain (2g, 3g, 4g).
                  I can able to choose manually or automatically those available networks in recent weeks.

                  And i did flight mode on off infinity times..
                  Switch off and on many times
                  Settings, all possibilities.

                  I didn't get any solution to choose mobile tower sigle..

                  Please suggest any solutions🙏

                                    I received a message from idea thanks for Choosing access to FUN PORTAL you have been charged Rs.20. But I didn't clicked on any link neither choose any portal. So I kindly request you to take necessary action against this unfair money deduction, and refund my money.

                                      I am a VI customer and recently I have had a balance deduction of Rs.25 for choosing "Games World". I have never subscribed to this service and neither was any confirmation taken from me before deducting my balance. I demand VI to immediately refund my balance they have wrongly deducted. Please stop such shady schemes. This is outright ridiculous
