The complaint is marked as resolved when a company has responded to the complainant, addressed his or her dissatisfaction, and came to an agreement where both parties agreed that the complaint is indeed resolved. However, a complaint can be automatically marked as resolved if a complainant isn't responding or updating a complaint for 30 days after the company has tried to reach the complainant.

IDea smart wifi

Address:Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 603103

My idea dongle is not working after activation. When contacted customer care, they told me to pay 2045 rs to continue service. I used the dongle only for 4 days and they dont clarify the reason behind the bill amount.

later they told that the plan is not activated hence the data has been charged. but i bought that with 20GB plan.

I dont want this dongle. I want my refund of rs 2000 for this dongle.
