Dear Sir, My Mobile no is [protected] As per attached screenshot from ideacellular site I have done 3G Data recharge of 127 Rs (1GB) on 27th Sep 2013 and my recharge was done successfully and I have got successful recharge message “RCH done. MRP Rs 127 NEW BAL, Plan : 1 GB, 3G data valid for 30 days”. But when I am using internet data charges are deducted from my talk time balance and 3G data balance remain same. When I am checking my data balance using *125# number it shows “Data Bal in ur accoung 1024.00 MB valid till Oct 26 2013”. When i have called Customer Care and they told ISF means Idea Smart Phone and u will use this, I don't have a Idea Smart Phone. They are not written ISF meaning on their web site. I have requested to revert my balance but they denied my request told me it is not possible. Please help me

It needs to be informed in media that will gain some attention from idea then. I was charged rs 15 for some bull and as I read more about it it looks like idea has a created a illigal income source for them. I am going to call a news channel to inform them and so shall all of you...pick a news network and keep calling them till we get some attention and put this fraud out in public so that others will think twice before getting idea as their carrier...

Hi, I am the Idea Post Paid customer . I was happy about this service. But now i am really very disappointed. because of the discrepancies in the postpaid bill for the period[protected] to[protected]. I am charged unnecessary for the SMS- MT charges. This month i got charge of Rs.25. I have no intension to send such messages which would costing me Rs.25 I called the customer care regarding the same. Even your executives dont have any idea regarding those charges one informed me that it is for internet facility used and other says for some activation(you may kindly cross check with the voice calls recorded). I havent sent any sms from my side and I Havent done any activations from my side. Hence i am expecting the necessary amount or waver has to be given or adjusted in my next bill as this bill is already paid by me. My mobile number is [protected] I called up customer care so many times with no joy. Customer service was not at all co-operative. Hence as i have never sent such messages for which i am getting charged. Please look after this issue. Quick reply or action is expected. Hoping for your best support. Thanks and regards Pawan Chaitanya V

I am idea post paid user from 3-4 years but from last two years I am not receiving bills at my address not even on mobile my number has been barred again two days back without any prior intimation I am surprised to see idea services like this ... idea authorized dealers are not giving local services and always asking for new connection I need immediate sollution or I surrender this number not only this iam using 4 idea connection and I will close all in next one week

as I am postpaid mobile consumer of the above mentioned company since 16 august. This company is doing so much fraud in my bill, previous month bill is 615. as I am using monthly rental 249(excluding tax).they has provided me 400 hundred minutes and 1 GB net plan, and my usage is 342 min as it is correct but they have done fraud in net pack they had added 295 rupees for about extra120 Mb. but main problem is that my net pack was exhausted at 1 October according to the company message that I have received. According to itemized bill my net pack was exhausted at 20th September but, on 23 rd September they have send msg about the usage of 93 percent only and further more message was sent by them as I am uploading the screenshots of the messages and Bill. and also the month before previous they billed me 345 rupees on applying 148 rupees extra for usage of net pack in 15 days. as they are telling that they gave 400 Mb but they have not sent any message about this as i have thought that I have 1 GB. and haven't sent me any message about the exhaustive of my 400 Mb. on an average every month they makes 300- 400 rupees extra to me and they have lakhs of customers you can imagine how much rupees they are doing fraud with us.

Dear sir, after calling and sending lot of mails to customer care am tired now and before moving to consumer court am sending this mail to you, I had purchased nokia lumia 720 handset on 30th august 2013, i got the offer from the nokia on website and its box itself saying after inserting respective sim card you will get 2GB 3g/2G data usage wherever applicable for 2 months.it is clearly said that offer will be activated within 48 to 72 hours after inserting respective sim card, and it was said that where 3G is not available 2G will be offered and its auto-activation.so to confirm I called up 198 (bad luck I do not remember the name) on 3/4th sept, so concerned person said yes offer is activated from 1st of September for 2 months, so I was happy and started using the data plan as a part of offer.but when when bill was generated on 21st September 2013, i was shocked with the bill amount Rs.6450/-with data usage around 300MB, so I called up and mailed many times customer care following are the funny replies from them. 1)THERE IS NO SUCH OFFER AVAILABLE, ZERO RENTAL PLAN IS AVAILABLE ON YOUR CARD, SO U HAVE TO PAY ACCORDING TO THAT 2)YOU HAVE COMPANY ACCOUNT WE CAN NOT PROVIDE INFORMATION ON THAT. 3) OFFER PLAN WAS THERE BUT BAD LUCK IT WAS EXPIRED ON 31ST JULY, 2013(I HAVE PROOF FOR THE SAME IN EMAIL) 4)YES, PLAN WAS ACTIVATED ON 1ST SEPTEMBER 2013, I WILL WRITE DOWN YOUR COMPLAINT. 5)YES PLAN WAS ACTIVATED ON 1ST SEPTEMBER, 2013 BUT ONLY 3G IS AVAILABLE 6)GO TO MY IDEA IN YOUR CITY THEY WILL ASSIST YOU(MOST INEFFICIENT PERSONS IN MY CITY) 7)GO TO DEALER HE WILL ASSIST YOU, AND LIST... SO FINALLY I CALLED UP NOKIA CARE FOR THE SAME, AND WITH THE HELP OF THEM OFFER PLAN WAS ACTIVATED ON 27TH SEPTEMBER 2013, So I called up idea customer care to reverse my charges from 1st sept, 2013 to 26th sept 2013, and should be treated as data offer and not zero rental plan, but after many efforts I got the same answer you have used it you have to pay it, and offer data is applicable from 27th September 2013 only, one thing I want to tell you am not that much of sense less to use such huge data knowing there is no offer, so I requested you to check my last five year monthly bill, there will not be such a huge amount. So I request you to reverse data charges at ealiest before proceeding any further action from me. Attaching some files for your reference, which clearly shows about data offer.

Hi, this is regarding VAS activation from July 2013. They have charged me Rs. 150/- for Mobile TV, Rs. 30/- for style adict and Rs. 30/- for Filmy romance. Since these services activated in July 2013, I called to corporate customer care (4999) to stop the services. Customer care agent told me that services will get deactivated within 24 to 48 hrs, and I received message also. However I got charged for these services on Aug 2013 & Sep 2013. I have raised many complaints and all are got closed but still services are active and I am getting charged Rs. 210/- PM. I can not close this sim card also as I will have to update everyone about new number. So Please resolve my complaint and pass the waiver for Rs. 420/- (i.e. Rs 210/- for Aug 2013 + Rs 210/- for Sep 2013).

I got following message from Idea "Dear Customer, thank you for downloading Fun_Zone from SYMBIOTIC. You have charged Rs 30." When I called to their customer care they agreed that this is not a Idea service and SYMBIOTIC is some third party website. but they are not refunding my balance. Over this customer care executive said that I have downloaded fun_zone from paid website. I dont understand what is this paid website means? and how can Idea pay on my behalf to anyone. It seems like they are trying to make me fool by saying all this crape.
