        Dear Idea Celluar,
        I was using my no [protected] for last 1.5 years and my bill was never crossed Rs 600 to 800 every month and also my credit limit was fixed up tp Rs 1700/ month. I was using 99 plan for 2 Gb free Internet use with 144 plan. I am shocked to see the bil of Rs 5300 for the month of February 2012. I called several times to customer care and nodal officer noida but they did not adjust the true amount and finally deactivated my no [protected]. I want to know if they where fixed up a limit of rs 1700/ then why the did not inform me when my bill amount was reaching the credit limit and also not stopped my service before crossing the limit.
        please help me to resolve this matter soon.

              Sir, few days back i.e. on 26th of august i got to know on checking of my balance that Rs.10 have deducted. I called customer care and they said that i have subscribed for game pack on internet on 24th of august. i don't even have a multimedia set,then how can i surf on net and apply for game pack. nothing happened and i had to forget my balance. then. yesterday afternoon, i got a call from company, i picked the phone and kept it aside while i was having lunch. Automatically, after some time phone got cut and i received a message that i have been deducted rs.10 for some Masti pack. i didn't press any button as i have a security lock on my phone in which, when i receive a call i cannot press any button without opening the lock which i didn't. i called customer care and a gal named Reema assured me that bal. will be refunded for which i have to call after 2 hours. after that, they didn't even receive my call at customer care. i went to local showroom in my city NARESH COMMUNICATION at KAMLA NEHRU NAGAR,JODHPUR. they said that they are not having any information about any deductions. i went to the same showroom today morning and he was talking to me in such a nonsense way. he was not eve having any information regarding my no. and said that i have been charged rs.30 instead of rs.10. i have been feeling so much inconvenience. the showroom in my city is also 5-6kms away from my home.
              Kindly do something. my mobile no. is - [protected].

                  I am having an idea connection [protected] just 30 days old. Yesterday i got my balance Rs. 94 deducted without any reason. Upo asking customer care people, no suitable justification was provided. IDEA....

                  Idea Cellular — Wrong Balance deduction

                  Respected Sir,

                  My Idea mobile number is [protected].

                  Since last two week my talk time balance has been deducted without any prior notice and at the same time i have been receiving sms stating that i have activated so and so VAS service.
                  When i talked to customer care they simply said that i have activated this service by calling some number, but i did not do that.
                  They are simply cheating customers.

                  Please do some need full against them.

                  Thanks,
                  Abhishek
                  Deduction of balance for Dialler tone was deducted. although that was not activated. For this issue, when i contacted to customer care i talked with the customer care executive Mr. Tushar Hande. this person has no sense how to talk with the customers. He is giving some foolish answers. When i told him to transfer call to his team leader / manager. He was told that he cannot transfer the call to his reporting person and disconnected my call while i am talking with him.
                  This is the worst experience with idea.
                  "Rs.15 for VAS on 21/06/2012 12:42:58" this is the detail for transaction.
                  And there is no request sent for such transaction from my idea no.
                  Its idea prepaid sim
                  Yesterday i.e. 5th Dec 2013 at 10:47 PM while browsing the internet on my mobile I suddenly received a message from IZ-ideaCMS
                  "Dear Customer,
                  thank you for downloading Dee Caggiano145 from TECHZONE. You have been charged Rs 49. Your balance is Rs. 201.03"
                  I dont understand since when internet browsing costs you 49 Rs for a page. And there has been no content downloaded also. Moreover I am worried that I could have been told that you have been charged Rs 100 or Rs 1000 or may be a lakh rupees and my balance would have been in the negative. What nonsense is this? I am now scared for opening any page from any link till I have internet provided by Idea.
                  This is really really annoying. I need someone to look into it and take action against Idea Network and stop these unnecesary SMSes and calls or at least guide me in the right direction.
                  I am vivek from jaipur. my cell number is [protected] rajasthan. maine ye naya connection liya hai. Connectivity is good. maine 25 ka trail pack liya jisme mujhe mile 500mb for 5 day.lekin maine use kam me nahi liya tha or same day maine 1 bar or 25 ka recharge kara liya to usme mile 130 mb only. lekin net balance add ni huaa or new balance hi raha wo bhi 130 mb. This is very wrong 500mb jiski validity 5 day honi chahiye wo to aapne uda hi di. this very very wrong. i am very very unhappy.

                  finally mujhe mila 50 rs me 130 mb for 5 day .
                  that is very wrong.
                  i want money refund or addition of net balance as soon as possible..

                      Could not avail Prepaid - Samsung Bundle Offer
                      4 days back, I have taken new Idea 3g Sim card. After checking in the Idea portal http://www.idea3g.co.in/samsung_offer_prepaid.html
                      , came to know about this Samsung bundle offer- prepaid.

                      I have recharged with Rs 497 as described in the portal and made voice calls.
                      And I got message as follows "Ur pack of 500MB for 30 days is now active! Eligible Smartfone customers will get the 3 month benefit within 72 hours; an SMS will be sent after the activation".

                      Till not I did not get additional MB. I have called customer care. I am getting different answers each time.

                            Dear concerned,

                            I am Priyanka Gupta, user of Idea Cellular mobile connection service (Telephone number :[protected])
                            My connection has been barred without any prior notification / intimation.
                            On contacting the customer care they are saying that the bills of your data card are not paid, whereas i asked for the disconnection of my data card number (mail put to Mr. Rahul Mishra) after clearing all my bills. Even then the number was not disconnected which was not a fault on my part.

                            Now they have disconnected my phone number to torture me....which is very unethical...

                            The same problem is being faced by other colleagues of my company that their requests (put to Mr. Rahul Mishra) are not being taken care immediately & then they are charged for the extra period...

                            Request you to consider the request & get my number debarred as soon as possible.

                            Regards

                              I am a user of idea cellular gujarat. My cell number is [protected]. I activated gprs pack of rs 99 on 30th january. Then around ten days back, another gprs scheme of rs 59 got activated. I called 198 to tell the representative about the fault. The first representative said that the system has facing some problems and my balance would be refunded and told me to call after 2 hours. I then called after 2 hours and the person then told me that it was not a system problem and i had actually activated the scheme. I told him why would i activate the scheme when i already have another scheme activated, that too of higher price. He then transferred the call to his senior who told me that there was some problem and i would have to call back after 2 hours. I called back again after two hours and the supervisor transferred the call to his senior who told me that there was a problem with the network and disconneted the call. After that i tried calling 198, the it would not connect. This is how the company manages consumer grievances, using tactics of procrastination. How long would the consumer try calling, ultimately the anger and grief would simmer down, he would forget everything.

                              Now today, when i have 2 gprs scheme active, my balance got deducted for gprs usage even when my free data usage is still left.

                                Address: West Godavari, Andhra Pradesh

                                4 days back, I have taken new Idea 3g Sim card. After checking in the Idea portal http://www.idea3g.co.in/samsung_offer_prepaid.html
                                , came to know about this Samsung bundle offer- prepaid.

                                I have recharged with Rs 497 as described in the portal and made voice calls.
                                And I got message as follows "Ur pack of 500MB for 30 days is now active! Eligible Smartfone customers will get the 3 month benefit within 72 hours; an SMS will be sent after the activation".

                                Till not I did not get additional MB. I have called customer care. I am getting different answers each time.
                                1) One said, No such offer
                                2) Another said, Recharge has failed
                                3) Another said, It would be considered as voice tariff voucher.
                                4) Another keeping me in hold and finally disconnecting.


                                By the way, I am using samsung galaxy s2.
                                Mobile Number +[protected].
                                And I have been successfully using 500MB which I got immediately after recharging with Rs 497.
                                Problem is that I did not get additional MB which I supposed to get.
                                Please help me in resolving this issue.

                                  1) She asked me to recharge for Rs 60 later it shall be activate
                                  2) After two hour i called again to customer care, an other lady on that side tells it will take an other two hours
                                  3) After two hour a guy received the call at the customer care, swithc off / and switch on the phone it might work. result was same outgoing barred

                                        Hello Sir/Madam This is HARI and earlier i was a IDEA customer and due to not having proper tariff rates i have changed to other network ( M N P ), and after 6 months now there are so many best tariffs are there in IDEA so again i thought to go back to MY PREVIOUS IDEA NETWORK and today i visited to Sangareddy IDEA SHOWROOM, Beside KARUNA HIGH SCHOOL, SANGAREDDY, MEDAK DIST.

                                        I requested them to give me MNP sim card and they have asked me that from which network, i say Vodafone and they simply asked from which network your earlier I said IDEA only due to having some technical problems in AIRTEL and VODAFONE i am changing to IDEA Network again and they have asked me to pay Rs.100/- rupees Extra because of, they won’t get any benefits when we came back to same home network from other network so they asked me to pay the 100 rupees extra i have speak with customer care executive on : [protected] and they have responded for my problem and they have explained that there are no charges for extra 100 rupees and simply only 25 rupees is there for sim card that's all and i have requested them to take complaint on the particular stores but they have not ready to take so that I am explaining all these things and here i am telling to the idea mainthing SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING FROM IDEA TO OTHER NETWORKS AND WHEN THEY THINK THAT IDEA IS BEST NETWORK AND WHEN THEY ARE READY TO COME TO HOME NETWORK FOR THIS REASON IDEA IS ENCASHING MONEY 100 THIS IS COMPLETELY ILLEGAL BUSINESS DONE BY IDEA CELLULAR

                                        Showroom Reason: Showroom people are telling that when the people are coming from other network the idea showroom people are giving MNP sim card that is HLR5 MODEL and when the Old idea customers came back to idea network their sims not supported with HLR5 and the showroom people telling that for that reason only they are giving PAID SIMS of HLR3 (THE COST FOR HLR3 IS 100/-) I request to authorities to take necessary action against IDEA.


                                        Because Idea should take care of sims matter and they should give with 25 rupees as per TRAI act but IDEA IS NOT FOLLOWING THE RULES so I demand to take necessary action against the idea


                                        And so necessary justice to the customers of IDEA.


                                        Thanking you for your action


                                        Regards
