My brother Diptesh Raval have Idea mobile no.[protected] since January 2010.
This number was activated after he had submitted all documents at Idea cellular.
Thereafter, they(Idea) collected documents twice from my brother.
At 26th April 2011, they bared illegaly my brother's SMS and Outgoing services.
When we ask about this to Idea, they said that "we have burned your documents if fire and you have to submitt the documents again"
We are not ready to fulfill this illegal demand of Idea, and Idea is not ready to start bared services without documents.
What is the solution?

I tried to recharge my father's mobile number through the web interface provided by idea cellular for an amount of 150 Rs on 6th of April 2011. The amount was debited from my account but the recharge was not successful due to some technical reasons. and it was promised that the payment would be reversed in 8 working days. On 27 of april i contacted cc again, as the payment was not returned to my account. They told me, they would return the amount within 24 hrs. On 28th i got a call from idea cc that i have to send my bank statement to them to get the refund.!!!! How can i give off my bank transaction details to them for a refund of 150 Rs? I again called cc and they insist that they want to confirm that i have not received the amount by looking at a scanned copy of my bank statement!!!!

I would NEVER suggest an Idea connection to any one.
I was considering to port to idea. Now i changed my mind and am porting to BSNL.

This was a very good experience of the "Best Customer Care" idea is giving.!

My Idea Mobile No. is [protected]. I am using idea mobile since 10-12 years. Several times I faced lot of inconvenience. Lastly on 23.04.2011 at 14:18 I recharged for Rs.500/-. Idea deducted Rs.45/- as song selection which I have not selected. On the same day I made a complaint in grievances cell at Gandhinagar but yet I am to receive a reply. After making complaint in grievances cell of Gandhinagar, no reply has been received till today i.e. 27.04.2011. Idea should refund my money i.e. Rs.45/-. If possible tell them that do not send any message or selection criteria unnecessary and do not give my number to anybody except state or central government or police department.
Please help me.
Thanks

I have purchased a IDEA prepaid SIM in Feb-2011 and the No is [protected]. This SIM is for testing purpose and remain swiched off when not in use. This SIM was bared for Incoming and outgoing calls and the reason given by company was that " Your verification was negative when company called you your mobile was switched OFF". As a solution company asked for fresh documents. I have submitted fresh documents as per instruction. After submission of document on next day Company deactivated SIM. Again I enquired about the deactivation in My IDEA outlet. My IDEA representative first told me that the limit of submitting fresh document is over and then changed his statement that your SIM card is deactivated due zero usage. So far there is usage by this SIM and yet six month is not competed. In fact company policy is that if you dont recharge for minimum 250 Rs. per six month then the SIM will be deactivated.This way company illeagally deactivated my SIM

I have been asked to make interim payments twice in last 5 days without any bill details being provided in spite of repaetaed requests being placed on customer care and IDEA gallery. I have made payments, but still am unaware about my usage which must have lead to this extra payments asked for.

Not only that, after making such payments, my phone's outgoing remains unavailablefor more than 4-5 hours, which is promised to become active within 2 1/2 hours.

Very inconvenient service provider....

Really sick..
Pl. help

I put my number on the Idea website for porting, I get a call after a few days for a port. I tell them to call me on a particular date as I had to complete 90 days on my existing provider which was due on the 15th of April. I get a call on the 12th of April asking me to submit documents and pay Rs 300 as security deposit + Rs 99 as activation charges + Rs 19 as porting charges, totalling upto Rs 418. On the 14th I get a call to sumbit the UPC code and after doing so I was told to wait for 7 days and the porting would be done. During the said time frame I called the customer care to check and I was assured everything was going smoothly. After the time frame passed by and when there wasnt any sign of the porting happening, I called tthe customer care and was informed that the porting was rejected due to non compliance of the 90 day time period and was asked to visit an Idea store to resubmit the porting request. When I visited the Idea store, I was told that there wasnt any record of my request, no documents of mine were submitted, since my existing bills are Rs 500 and above, there shouldnt have been any security deposit taken and since my residence is outside the mumbai circle I will be incurring roaming charges as well.

Contrary to what the company advertizes, its a clear case of mismanagement and that nobody knows where the records go, the website seems hacked because someone took my details from a database there, contacted me and even gave me a SIM card which is of no use because nothing can be traced to anyone.

Request the concerned department/authorities to look into this matter urgently as it seems like someone is distributing fake or even genuine SIM cards with no possible traces.

Dear Sir,
I, Dasharath using idea data card since 2 months have problem regarding internet speed. When I connect it to the PC, it shows Connected, but there is no receiving or sending data. When I open any page including google then it displays the page load error. I have complained so many times to the customer care but there is no solution with their.

customer service of Idea cellular company is very poor. I am working and i use to pay my bill online. but this time i could not pay bill because their website was under construction and i was not aware of. after so many calls i could reach one executive who told me about VISA pay bills. i did my payment done. but still not got any updates. they are sending me sms and calling again and again and asking if you will not pay your services will be cut. this is not genuine. whenever i am trying to call no one picks call. i dont know what to do but why should i suffer due to their poor services.

I Was an idea user from last 2 year. I purchased an Idea Life time sim. But due to some mis happening i lost my handset. A registered a complaint on idea customer care that i want to deactivate my number temporarily till next communication and got confirmation about the same from customer care. Again when i contacted to the idea customer care for this issue they give me a very funny answer that we have recycled your number and it has already been resealed to the other customer. When i raised issue to the nodal officer they told me that this is the policy. They are not ready to give me any satisfactory answer regarding the life time sim facility and with out my permission or confirmation how they can recycle my number.
I suggest to every one please don't use IDEA services as they are worst service provider.

I (Gautam Kumar Jha) took a post connection from Idea on 07/042011. I paid security money as well as the prerequisite documents on the same day. Still, they have not activated my number instead of thousand calls i made to this company regarding the problem. A month is about to pass but they do not seem to be bothered. Even, I told him to return my money, they said impossible to return"You do what you want" I am terribly devastated, don't know what to do. I am also giving you the number of idea company I used to call regarding post paid connection=[protected]( Monika). Please help me to overcome the harassment.

Dear Sir,

We are residing at pune (villege from BAHULI ). For past few years we are using Idea's prepaid connection. We could not use our Idea connection in our locality. All the service providers installed their towers except Idea. There is a tower which has already been installed by idea is situated at the another part of locality. But there is no tower BAHULI More that covers the other part of our locality. Every major providers have installed two towers in both parts of the locality except Idea. Each time we need to come out of our home to get proper signal. Otherwise most of the calls are being disconnected. Most of the time the mobiles show bad signal option. For past few months we are struggling a lot. No action has been taken by Idea. It should be solved immediately. Please take necessary action as early as possible. at may land ur use d rentaly
