Website: Idea cellular

I have been charged 25 for no reason and 25rupees deducted at the moment itself I have been trying to contact the costomer care but no costumer service answers my question and no way to speak to them only the pre-recorded robots.

And today I have been charged 21rupees for some funportal that too without my knowledge the deduction is done.
I haven't subscribed to any of these and I want my money back.
Screenshot proofs attached

Also make it available to talk to the service so we could share our complaints directly.
Thank you and please give my money back .

    Most of the time only emergency service is available, no internet service and no phone calls service. Also if network service is available there is no internet service available.
    Very badly experiencing the network issue. At the step to change over the service provider, please look into the issue to resolve the problem

      Catchy data strength and unstable network . Network keeps on fluctuating. Mostly stays at 20kB/s. In today's date and time what can a person do with this network. Can't stream or attend online meetings.

        Address: Idea telecom,( Gularbhoj) udham singh nagar, uttarakhand

        Today, I recharged net pack through Google pay but by mistake I recharged another number as it was my father's number. When I contacted idea customer regarding the same, they refused to return or transfer data.
        I request you to look into this matter and if possible take strict action.
        There should be recharge reversal procedure in every telecom, but they simply refuse to help us.
        I am really unsatisfied with iDea' this kind of behaviour.
        Thanks

          Whenever I tried calling via idea it shows me "service unreachable". I am not even able to call on customer support. This issue is coming up from last one month.

                                    I have been facing an issue o[censored]nauthorized deductions for my idea number from quite some years. Till now probably around 200 rupees has totally been deducted. I get a random message one day stating that some game plan is activated for which some money is deducted. When I call customer care they have a fixed unsatisfactory reply that 'you have activated a game plan... we can't do anything... its not from idea... its a third party..." Moreover when this issue occurred recently I was told to visit a mobile shop to deactivate the game plan. Now what I want to know is, whoever buys a new idea sim should go to a mobile shop to deactivate unauthorized game plans? Is this become a necessary step to get an idea sim? Should all Idea customer go regularly go to a mobile shop for this?
                                    Secondly I use a phone with Airtel and Idea sim wherein I give my airtel number for everything but I never faced any such deductions there. Does Idea have no Security for the money in the account? Am I supposed to never keep a balance for Idea number? Is this a new norm for idea?
