TD-GUPSHUP

Address:Gandhinagar, Gujarat

I am DND registered user and getting SMS on really awkward times (12:00 AM, 4:10 AM ...) from TD-GUPSHUP. It is really disturbing. IDEA has not provided any solution yet since registering complains last month. It says already processed.

How they get my number? Who reads these complains? How to go for legal actions.

Any help here?...
