Idea Cellular Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir/Madam,
Its a very pathetic act from idea. I have been idea customer the day I took a mobile phone. i.e Last 5 years.
Now you have automatically activated caller tune on my mobile no [protected]. It can't be deactivated via net and i have to call your customer care office only. Already i have suffered a loss of Rs. 30. Now, by calling your customer care office, I have incur other losses as you have started charging for that as well. When will you stop such unethical practices.

I request you to remove my subscription of caller tune with immediate effect.

Regards,
Nishant Dalal

Every day I am receiving sms from 55456340 & Rs.5 are being charged per day. Who has authorised such charges is not known to me. Despite sending message on the same no. for discontinuation, there is no response. Further, despite contacting Idea Cellular, there is also no response & even itemised statement of a/c for the month of Oct. is not furnished, though it was assured that the same would be sent by charging Rs.25.

I would like to know as to how to stop paying Rs.5 per day?

When i call to customer care.....no 1 pick the calls and jus money gets cut as the call is chargeable.....

Dear Ideacellular Co.

This is to apprise you of a data leakage system in your company that has led to the invasion of my privacy, violation of my personal integrity/self esteem, my trust on the company and defamation. Mentioned below are the details:

I am using a post-paid number (IDEA No- [protected]) and my profile is listed among one of the premium customer's. Few days back, somebody has unscrupulously taken out the bill details (last 3 months) of my number and made several calls to my high end clients / colleagues and friends and used uncivilized language with them.

As a proof, I have the copies of the bill details, which clearly states and indicates that there is a leakage in the system that needs to be mended.

I made several calls to the customer centre as well but all in vain, nothing has happened till now.

Please note that there is no police verification / legal invigilation done against me by any appropriate authority.

My question to you is :

1. How does IDEA cellular company addresses and value the privacy of its customer's.
2. Is the personal details of the customer's is readily available with the employee's of the company and anybody can use it (even to settle personal vendetta)?
3. Does IDEA Cellular Co. has any check-point to curb these malpractices?
4. How come my billing data is leaked to someone without my prior knowledge?
5. With this incident, will I be able to have trust on IDEA anymore?

This incident has entirely devastated my trust on your company. And as a result I am forced to terminate all my IDEA connections that I & my family has. I will also be forced to report such malpractices at my office - IBM (so as to stop the corporate connections) as if this has happened to me then it can happen to anyone. And since, we deal with sensitive information's (clients), a leakege of this sort from your company has the potential to ruin our trust and personal responsibilities that we shoulder for our clients.

** I am going to approach the civil court to claim my rights and for the loss of my dignity that this carelessness (of IDEA Co.) has caused to me. I want the culprits to brought to court and I also want an example to be set before all the employee’s of IDEA that invading the privacy of the customer is considered as a very heinous crime. I am also going to TRAI / Media to confer justice to me.

Idea has charged me for Rs.1152 for 3 calls made on 05664464on 26/10/2010 which were not made by my phone or by my number. When I spoke with their customer service, they were rude and did not help me. Moreover, they threatened me that if I will notpay the charges, my services will be disconnected.

My account number for Idea Pospaid account is: 1.10744469.

Why you guyz are charging me for something which I have not used.

Dear Sir,

I have lost my cell phone with idea sim card.
Please deactivate this sim as early as possible.

Dear Sir,

I have received a SMS reading “ Your daily Idea Game Box subscription has been renewed.You have been charged Rs.5 for 1day.To unsubscribe SMS UNSUBGBX to 55435.Sender: BL- Indiagam.”

I had never subscribe for the daily Idea Game Box.

Immediately I had sent SMS to UNSUBGBX to 55435 for not to renew but SMS remains pending. Since then I have been charged Rs. 5per day from 15.11.10 to till date while I never requested/utilized for any such service .

You are requested to help me for refund of money charged, I had been charged by customer care during complaint but the customer also could not help out from this unwanted charge.Now I am not recharging my prepaid account due to un-satisfied service of the Idea Cellular service.
It is the great disadvantage if the cellular services for un-wanted charges applied by them.

i have got fed up by idea connection and will never recommend any of my friend for this connection and also i will change my connection if this continues

This is to bring to your notice that my mother had taken an Idea pre-paid mobile connection with the number: [protected]. It is very recent connection. Today without any intimation a random caller tune was set up at the number and a charge of Rs 125 was debited from her pre-paid balance account. Further an intimation sms was sent to her number specifying a time when apparently there was a call from the Idea personnel on confirming the setting up of this caller tune, In fact in reality there was no call from Idea on this caller tune setting and debit of the charge for the caller tune.

It is highly unfortunate that such a petty fraud be done by such an organization as Idea Cellular. Its not an issue of Rs. 125 being deducted from someone's account without their consent for such a service, it comes across more as a matter of integrity and ethics from an Aditya Birla Group company.
