My idea cell # [protected] on my name (Syed Shadab Raza. M. Raza) was deactivated by the company witout reason. When i approached to the Idea gallery, the reason they gave was very silly. As per them, if the sim is non use for more than 2 months, the sim will be deactivated. It is true that the sim was not used for the said period as I was (out) in Uttar Pradesh & was using the local number o[censored]ttar Pradesh.I said them to reactivate the same number/sim as i am ready to pay the reactivation charges again(if any) as the said number was not allotted to anybody till today (06.09.11) . But they did not agreed & said it is not possible now. The number was very important to me as it was my fixed number in Mumbai. Please check if some thing could be done & I will be very thankfull if i get the same number ([protected]) again. I agree to follow the terms of company if they provide me the same again.

Thanking You

    Address: Indore, Madhya Pradesh

    I have taken 7 connections on my companys name M/S BMD MILK & MILK PRODUCTS, INDORE(MP) and payment is being regurarly done as we receive the bills at registered office, whereas this is 3 rd time that IDEA CELLUAR company without sending the bills are DEACTIVATING THE CONNECTIONS 7 ARE SENDING MESSAGE THAT THE NUMBERS ARE DEACTIVATED for Non payment of bills.
    I had informed the Assistant sales manager of Idea Cellular Mr.Arshit Khanna on his mobile number [protected] about the same and after his efforts the numbers were activated but Again I received the message that my number [protected] has been Deactivated, I received the message on 05/09/2011 at 08:03:33 AM stating that bill ammount has execeeded Credit limit and the amount of rs 901.63 has to be paid. Whereas I would like to inform you that The Credit limit is rs 1, 000/- and without intimating me the number was Deactivated whereas Idea has NO RIGHT TO DEACTIVATE without informing or sending the bill for payment and I am consulting my Lawyer for legal notice to company because I am not able to make the outgoing calls and I suffered the loss as I am trading in Raw material We are having a DAIRY PLANT and I was not able to call my customers for their Requirements as we sell MILK/CURD/PANEER/GHEE/CREAM/BUTTER ETC. I would like to know can the IDEA CELLULAR officials DEACTIVATE without notice ( SMS or Withour calling the concerned person to clear the Dues) as this shall harm the reputation of the company as well as of the person using the number. So I STRONGLY REQUEST THE HIGHER AUTHORITIES OF IDEA CELLUAR TO LOOK IN THE MATTER SERIOUSLY AND TAKE STERN ACTION AGAINST THE STAFF WHO DEACTIVATE THE NUMBERS WITHOUT PRIOR INFORMATION TO THE CUSTOMERS AND KINDLY LET ME KNOW ABOUT THE ACTION TAKEN BY THE COMPANY .

      Respected Sir,
      This is regarding NO NETWORK COVERAGE of Idea Cellular in Pune on Modern College road.
      Myself VINIT SULE. Cell no- [protected]. Currently I am working with GARWARE MOTORS LIMITED in corporate office located at Modern College road. I just want to inform you about the Big Problem of NO NETWORK COVERAGE in the office located at Modern College road, which am facing since from 14th May-2011. This is a first time that I am facing this kind of problem since from last 8-9 yrs. Just because of Excellent Coverage of Idea, I am using Idea network since from last 8-9 yrs. Due to this problem I cant able to talk to all VENDORS related to my office work, FAMILY MEMBERS, OTHERS etc… & they can not able to talk to me also. Earlier, the service of Idea cellular was excellent. But, nowadays service has become very poor…
      This is kindly request to you, Please solve the above mentioned problem as early as possible.
      Now I Am Facing The Big Problem That, All Outgoing Calls As Well As Incoming Calls Are Automatically Disconnecting While Speaking & If Network coverage is available then sound continuously breaks. Still I am facing this big, big, big problem of NO NETWORK COVERAGE.
      Other members (idea users) also facing this same problem.
      Vodafone has excellent & better coverage than idea in the office
      Please arrange a person of IDEA cellular to visit my office, and then I will show the NO NETWORK COVERAGE problem to him.
      Kindly request to you, please look into this issue.

            Idea Cellular — IDEA Sim card lost

            Dear Sir,

            My mother has lost the mobile phone two weeks ago in which she had IDEA's Sim card.

            The mobile no is +91 [protected] and its in the name of Mr.s Sarvani Shetty (my mother)

            As she is very aged, she cannot visit any of your outlets so had requested the distributor to block the no. so that no misuse should happen. But till now he has not taken any action towards this.

            So kindly guide me what has to be done. I stay in Mumbai, I had contacted IDEA's guy here to block the same but as the location belongs to Gujarat they were not able to help me out.

            Please do the needful and block the said no.

            Thanks

              I am sorry, but I think you have not read my question properly. I am saying I want to GET RID of IDEA CELLULAR SERVICE. So I would obeviously send the port request to Other service provided right..?
              So I had sent request to 1901 and UPC no is:IZ741153. This request no is not prrocessed by IDEA. When checked with customer care, no proper reply is getting neither they are approving for MNP request.


              I hope now this is clear and will take proper action

                Idea - Net setter — Net connection not working

                Dear Sir/Madam

                I have recently moved into Pune from Bangalore. I had availed an IDEA net setter connection ([protected]) for accessing the internet in Pune. I had paid 1750/- for the instrument during 1st week of November. Since then i have repeatedly told the IDEA customer care that i am not able to access the internet. They would always give me a date for solving the complaint but would never solve it. On the 19th of November 2009 i had raised a final complaint asking them to rectify the problem or refund me the instrument charges. Every time i call them they give the next date and tell me that it would be solved by then. But till now there is no response at all. I have also written mails to their senior personnel on this matter.

                I depend upon the internet to pay my bills pertaining to my Bangalore property. If they atleast refund me my amount i could switch to some other operator to do my duties. I request your help on this.

                Regards

                    I appraise you get up from a sound sleep after 2.5 Yrs, Aren't you feel little bit early?????.

                    I had deposited documnets what i requested from your idea cellular service provider only. That means there wasn't my fault at all.

                    I again submitted same documents to your Idea Cellular Executive. Hope you will again wake-up in between 2-3 yrs soon.

                      Dear Sir/ Madam

                      An internet connection(monthly) was applied for my mobile No.[protected] by paying Rs 98/- but am not able to activate internet connection & email.
                      this was brought to your contact nos.12345 requesting them to kindly activate my internet connection.Though somebody answered to contact no.53599 & receive GPRS settings.
                      Upon contacting no feedback or GPRS settings have been received so far.
                      Pls be advised since this connection is valid for only one month & not activating same amounts to loss of time/days.
                      T/fore it will be highly appreciated if above problem could be rectified at the earliest.

                          Dear Sir,

                          My Idea Net Setter no. is [protected]. I buy this on 5th of August 2011.

                          I took Combo_850rs plan in which can free Download data is 6GB data,
                          I used only 5.62GB data as my statistics shown in net setter, after then
                          they stopped the services. Then I called to customer care, those guys
                          don't know anything.

                          But i was shocked to see.... i had been charged for the data i have used,
                          There was an excess billing of 1016 rs. I had contacted so many times to
                          customer care numbers but those guys are unable to understand. I am really
                          frustrated with there attitude towards customers.I will never go to
                          Idea Services
                          further.

                          Please take necessary action.

                          Regards,
                          Shivam Bajpai

                            I am new customer of idea prepaid service. Right now my service is barred. I have submitted document thrice. Last two occasions I have submitted document to My Idea showroom, idea personnel verified all document I found it proper.
                            I have attached following documents
                            1st submision
                            Indian driving license – As Photo ID
                            Maharastra state electricity board (MSEB) bill – As address proof

                            2nd and 3rd submission
                            Maharastra state electricity board (MSEB) bill – As address proof
                            Indian passport – As photo ID and address proof.

                            Note: MSEB bill is on my name and also address on passport and MSEB are same (my current pune residential address)

                            Each time I call idea customer care, they reply saying your documents are not proper but do not tell what is issue with documentation.
                            This time again they asked me to submit documents again (4th time) . Can you help me to address this issue.

                            Regards,

                              Everything is mentioned in the complaint.
                              The happened with me, I am not really comfortable sharing my phone number, Buyt have been calling Idea customer services from past 3 weeks but nothing happened, The call was disconnected almost 10 times and I was so pissed off after that I stopped calling them and sent an email to there complaints department and wow nothing happened after that, Idea changed my life as well.

                              I received a message from Idea on 18th August that read
                              Dear prviliged customer
                              Idea 3G service has been activated on your number for free, Enjoy free 100 MB Usage, Surf movies, Download and much more,

                              And now that I have used the fascility I've been charged for 270 Rs and they clearly say that they can not find the message on there screen hence they will not initiate a refund and when I ask them to transfer the call either it is disconnected or transfered to a another supervisor.

                              My email Id [protected]@gmail.com

                              An email has been sent to grievances department as well, Still no help.

                              That is not Idea we are looking for :(

                              Unfortunately, I will first transfer my number from post paid to pre-paid and then eventually suddenlly it will be a sudden demise of my Idea connection.

                                Idea Cellular — debiting amounts for services not subscribed by me

                                I have taken sim card of idea cellular but unfortunately the company has started debiting amounts from my prepaid balance on the pretext of subscriptions to various services provided by them. I habve spoken to Mr Mahadev at customer care services but he simply refused to reverse the amounts which the company has started debiting, without my subscibing to any of the services. On being told to stop the calls from company he replied that it will take a minimum of 45 days. I need help to stop the company from swindling customers' money as well as unnecessary harassment to the customers like me.
                                Hello ([protected]@yahoo.com)

                                My name is Deep Thapa and I am using Internet services of Idea from 5 years but now if I will download anything Idea cellular is deducting my balance. I already have activated net plan on my phone number [protected] but the money is deducted from my balance and I have not used my all data that was given with plan. It has happened 3 to 4 times, I had lost approximately Rs 60 in that. I cannot understand that why Idea is deducting money when there is net plan activated and there is no downloading charges as I am using my given data. Please try to refund my money or I think that I have to port my number to some other service provider. My number is [protected]
                                My name is Deep Thapa and my phone number is [protected]. I am using Idea internet services from 4 years but now if I will download something the money is deducted from my balance as I already have activated net plan on my account. There is enough data balance in my net plan but every time I will download something the money is deducted from my balance. I almost lost Rs 60 and it is useless to contact customer care of Idea. Please try to refund my money and stop deducting the balance.

                                Hi, my no. Is [protected]. This is happened to me second time. I was searching something on internet. One site asked me to verify if I am 18+ or not. I clicked on yes. I have received message that the video talkies is activated. No further message of deduction of money. I checked balance and found that money was deducted. This time I don't want my money back. Last time Idea was candid to me and recovered my money. But in future i will not keep any balance on my idea card.
                                Hi Sir/Madam,
                                Yesterday I was trying to activate sms pack, so I used usd code to activate, but by mistakenly I activate another two packs. One was 1.2p/s calling and other was std pack for one day.It was my mistake so there no issue and I accepted. Later on I immediately called to customer care to know whether that pack is auto renewal or not. So idea customer care told me that both pack are not auto renewal.
                                After that I activate sms pack with correct usd code and charge applied 5rs for 50 message.Upto this is correct. Now in morning I got one message that 5rs deducted from my account. I called to customer care the person told me that its a downloading charges, so I told him I have activated Internet pack so how is this possible, he told me some sites take charges and I didn't download anything, I told him let me know from which site I downloaded.
                                he checked into system and told me that he don't have any information regarding it was fake answer. I told him that I got message in that its telling 'call pack is activated and it took 5rs'. So he told me, again I have to checked information he then later on told me 'its charges of sms pack' and sms charges is deducted yesterday night, and also I got sms charges message. So again fake ans. I told him I got message of call pack is activated how can you say this sms pack is activated. I don't know I want my money back they refuse it, as I didn't activated sms pack in morning its activated at yesterday night. I have proof n idea cellular speaking lie and giving fake information.
                                The person with whom I Talk is "SUBODH".

                                Thanks and Regards,

                                    i again called up and asked them you please send me the duplicate itemize bill history i will make the payment if it is realy justifying. and after that please activate my number.


                                    but inspite of sending my duplicate billlllllllll, suddenly they have disconnect my number aslo [protected]. although i paid advance rental to them for next 2years ,now i was unable to call even at there tollfree number as they have compleatly disconnected it. i called up them from my vodafone numebr [protected] arround 20 times but as usual i was not getting proper responce from them, they were disconnecting my call every time after listen my history.

                                    and after arround 40 days i got to know that they have given my [protected] number to some one elce.... his Name is mr Vijay i called him when you have purchased this number he told my that i have purchased this number befor 2 weeks and i have paid Rs/- 5000 for this VIP Number only,,,, activation and plan charges is moreover..... He told me that he is getting every day lots of calls for you (Praveen Upadhyay) and lots of Messages. he has also called up at tollfree number as he was facing lots of problam.

                                    1) Now my concirn is withough see the bill history will anyone make the payment??
                                    2) why their customer care executive were disconnecting my call every time???
                                    3) Why they have disconnected my number [protected] withought any intemation suddenly, although i was paying my bill every month properly from past 4yrs continuously, many times i paid my bill in advance.
                                    4) As per my information if a company disconnect any postpaid numebr then with in a 3-4 month they can not alocate that number to any other person then how they alocate my number to someother person with in the TAT time.


                                    Sir,

                                    the both number was very important for me i hope you can understand my problame. it was like a mentel harassment.
                                    i am working in a BPO for a leading health insurance company (Apollomunich Health Insurance) as a Team Leader and i work on Pan India Basis (Delhi/NCR, Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow, chennai, hyderabd, jaipur, pune, Etc) and my all field executive were use to contact me only at [protected] number. every day we are doing arround 3.5lacs business mininmum 2.5lacs. from my office only.

                                    now i hope you can understand in first 2-3 days how much business my company would have lost.

                                    I would humbly request you to please look into this and do the needful for the same. so that they cant do these kind of stuffs with some other person.

                                        Address: Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh

                                        My idea prepaid SIM (mob. no.:[protected], Purchase date:10th August 2011) was deactivated on 17th Aug,2011 even after the submission of documents. As per retailer's advice, i personally went to idea customer care office, behind BIG BAZAAR, Visakhapatnam and submitted my documents(Application no.:W0505422). 5 days have passed and still there is no response from the company. when i contacted customer care through phone, they say that i will have to go to the idea office just to verify if my documents have been submitted or not. Just for this, i have to travel 10kms. When a customer submits documents directly at the office and the officials accept it, then its obvious that the documents are okay. Then why are they taking so much time to just activate a SIM?
                                        please give me a solution as soon as possible.
