    Address: 274409

    In this current situation, all isp are making customer fool. I'm getting 10-15 kbps internet speed on 4g recharge. Even 2g internet seems faster than you 4g internet speed. Either establish the good network connection so that we can get for what we pay or deduct the recharge amount. It is not worth to pay for 4g and get worse speed than 2g even.

    I'm from up east and my pin is 274409.

    Please this concern seriously.

      My mobile number [protected] has been charged Rs 25 on 16th Aug, 2020 for unknown reasons. I contacted Idea cellular costumer care and one of their executive told me that the amount has been taken not by the idea cellular, but by a built in game content in my phone and they also said that they can't disclose the name of the service by which, my money was lost. And they also suggest that I may contact my cellphone manufacturer's service center in order to resolve this issue. They just send me an SMS response about that false transaction only after reporting my complaint on 17th Aug, 2020 which is mentioned below.

      "Hello! An amount of Rs. -25 is deducted on 16 Aug 20 11.24 am for KR11155435IGGAME025T on your Idea number."

      I am using my Nokia 7 plus phone made by HMD global for the last two years under various networks and I didn't face such a complication till now.

      Here is my humble request to help me to find out a solution for my loss of money.

      Faithfully

                  I have gone through 4g sim upgrade procedure 2 times in the last two years. Still there are unresolved network issues for which customer care suggests me to upgrade my sim to 4g. As seen in the attached picture, there is 4g mentioned on the network symbol at the top of my screen which is the proof that my sim is already registered on 4g network. This is the worst experience with idea.
