      I have experienced the worst 4G on Idea. Many times it changes to 3G and even the 3G is the worst. The company keeps on sending SMS about their tower and network upgrade in my area but still its the worst 4G

        Address: India

        I riased a complaint, because I was unable to send SMS on 28th of November, actually I was unable from 27th itself, but I thought it was a technical issue.
        So, I recharged twice, one SMS pack & one 10Rs. recharge o[censored]nlimited validity.
        Still unable to send SMS.
        On 1st of December, I saw my complaint was resolved, but still was unable to send SMS.
        I again raised a complaint, on same day.
        Today, on 3 Dec it was resolved.
        I received a call from customer care, who informed that my complaint is resolved (who had a poor connection himself, it took him 8 minutes & still didn't get my information, and asked me if he can call back)
        I told him that I am still unable.
        He said let me check.
        And told me now I am barred as my validity has expired & told me I've exhausted my SMS balance.
        I had to confirm my number to some place but, it's been 7-8 days.
        It's not a very good thing.

        Complaint marked as Resolved 
        After 3-4 weeks, they sent me a message which said that your problem is resolved & we're sorry for the inconvenience. Meanwhile, I raised consecutive complaints via Vi app, of the same issue, each time I would receive a message that your complaint is resolved but issue persisted. At last I started receiving calls from them saying that the issue is resolved and complaint is closed, I explained that complaint is closed without being resolved. Vi customer support is not emphatic & highly unprofessional.
        Idea Cellular customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
        16:13, 3rd December.
        The same customer care official called back & told me I'm barred & to recharge with service validity.
        I said
        I still have my SMS pack untouched, with service validity of 6 December.
        He said he understands but I've to recharge with service validity.

            Dear sir,
            My sim card is not showing any network for last 3 days.
            I tried to solve the problem by restarting the phone, reinserting the sim, changing the phone and even changed the sim card as well from idea store.

            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 but i cant see status because they send a verification code the same number. How can i receive a message when i don't have any network.

            It is getting very discouraging for me, i don't see any options available to solve this issue. My idea number is [protected], i can be contacted on Laveen, mail me to : laveen.[protected]@gmail.com

                  I am old Idea customer and till now I was not confronting much about internet speed yet from few weeks it had become an incredible issue to me it shows the internet speed as a 4G however conveys speed is 200 to 300 kbps. Presently since End Semester Exams will begin low internet network will emerge a time insufficiency issue so I demand Idea to understand it as right on time as could reasonably be expected.

                    The place where I live does not tell the Idea network and the Internet runs at a low speed, so I wanted to get ported out to another company, but the company came and said that if you do not get ported out, then all your problems are solved. Will be 15 days.
