    Hi,

    I am using Idea mobile connection No. [protected]. The company has charged me for unnecessary service "IMS Night Plan" which is not activited by me. When I complaint them, they deactivate the service but do not agree to refund the amount.

    Please note that I never request for any such service.

    Kindly look into the matter.

    Thanks.

    Idea Cellular — unused charges

    I am using an idea mobile no. [protected] since last 7 years, alway thay are charging unused amount in my monthly bill & since last three months I am trying to change my billing address with ID & address proof i.e. Pan letter, rent agreement & gas bill etc. How ever thay are not responding me. Over all service of IDEA Cellular is very very poor , I will suggest not to take idea connection
    Idea's customer service and focus has deteriorated a lot.

      I had tried to recharge my mobile online using idea cellular website, the transaction has gone through however they said due to technical error they are not able to apply the amount to my prepaid connection, hence the amount will be
      diverted back to my credit card, the transaction was done on 13/2/2010
      Inspite of many follow ups and even sending them statement for my credit card and screenshot which i luckily stored, they are not ready to cooperate, there customer service number gives all invalid information and nobody is even ready to look at it , theey are just buying time asking me for proofs and when sent them the attachments they are asking for what is the concern for sending the mails

      Which forum i can lodge a complaint against such fraudulent people?

      Idea Cellular Prepaid — Recharge amount

      Hi,

      I have recenltly recharged my Idea prepaid number with Rs 350 via Citibank services. To my shock i got talk value of only 200. I called up the Customer care only to find out that there was no such recahrge value of 350, and they couldnt help. So, i lost 150 Rs not once but twice. I have two simple questions, a) If Idea has a tie up with citibank for recharge serices, then dosent it become duty of idea to inform what all recharges a customer can do? b) Idea website dosent even give an otion of Citibank in its banking domain options. I will not be surprised if they have cheated so many customers like myself, and until someone takes action they will just gobble up customers money without giveing any value to them, adding on to this there is no proper network coverage of idea as well.

      helloooooooooooo
      what an idea
      My idea balance is going less day by day without any reason plz tell why
      dont come balance. i have one massage
      what
      its not fair by the idea staff to do such things to the customers
      Sir,
      There is wrongly duduftion Rs. 90 from my Mob No.[protected] on 22nd March, I have made the complain to customer care. On 30th March I got the reply from your office on my cell that you send sms to 12345 stoping dialer tone.and the balance will be refunded to you. But still today we have not received my Balance back. I think 90 Rs. is not a big amount for Company like Idea. We hope that you have that sufficient balance in your account. Please do the needful at earliest.

      Thanks & Regards,
      Hina K. Shah

          Idea Mobile Prepaid — Disconnection of prepaid mobile

          I purchased an Idea prepaid cell phone connection on 10 May 11 and I submitted the documents as per requirements told by the retailer, but on 14 May 11 my connection was disconnected with a reason that my documents submitted earlier were not as per DOT instructions. Where as I have submitted the fresh documents again on 25.05.2011, at Ali Communications at Air Force Station Chandinagar, Dikkoli, Dist-Baghpat o[censored]P. Still my connection is not activated as on today[protected]. This is causing very much inconvenience to your customers and they may leave your mobile services and more over I'm a combatant member of IAF and I hope that this should not be the respect and dealing towards a Armed Force Members those who are staying away from their near and dears.......

          My connection details are as follows:-
          Mob No: [protected]
          SIM No:[protected]

          Now a days people are getting fresh connections with in 5 minits, you are taking months together to activate your old customers, this is highly not execuasable.

          Please restore connection immediately.

FROM TWO MONTHS THEY HAVE BEEN PROMISING TO REVERSE MY CHARGES BUT YET SAME HAS NOT BEEN DONE. DUE TO WHICH MY OUTGOING CALLS HAVE DEACTIVATED FROM LAST 10 DAYS DUE TO WHICH I AM UNERGOING HAEVY LOSSES BECAUSE OF IDEA CELLUAR .

              I HAVE PAID MY BILLS

              BILL AMT 1700/-

              CHRG REVERSED 500/-

              BILL PAID 1200
              I hope you have succeeded in deactivating your services.

              More importantly, I was curious to know if you published your cell number here. If yes kindly refrain from the doing the same in future. It may invite unnecessary troubles. If you just gave your number as a part of the process for registeration of the complaint and you were unaware that it was going to get published here, you might want to take necessary measures from removing your number.

              Just out of concern.

                    Hello ,

                    My Mobile Number [protected]
                    Name Yogesh M Navandar

                    I have been using idea service from past 3.5 years.(Before it was Spice Telecom)

                    I have converted my connection from post paid to prepaid long back in the month of Sep or Oct 2009.
                    It was like 5 months ago conversion was done I was using my number as usual for these months.
                    Suddenly one fine day in this month (March 2010) I get a message to submit the proof for my post paid to prepaid conversion.

                    After seeing to the message I had gone to your Idea outlet at Marathalli branch (Outer Ring Road --Bangalore) on 6th march 2010 and submitted the proof i.e my ration card with two photographs of mine.
                    Again I got a message on 9th March 2010 that we are not in receipt of any document please submit the documents, I called idea customer care for the same and placed a complete that I have
                    submitted the proof at your Marathalli branch could you please collect from Marathalli branch and asked her to write the same on the request message so that I have prrof that I have intimated them about my documnet submittion. (Request number[protected]. I too have acknowledgement of document submision.

                    I went to idea branch with the proof again on 12th march,2010. The branch lady told me that the document is been sent already and no need to submit the proof as she can see the correct address on the system mentioned.

                    On 15th March,2010 Idea cellur have barred my out going and incoming calls without even informing me.
                    My concern is why did you barred my number when I have given all my proof on time and informing to customercare about this.

                    One more question If they didn't find my document sufficient how can you let me use the number for 5 months without any correct document proof.
                    This was an serious security threat to the nation that you let the customer use the number without any valid documents.

                    I am suffering huge losses as this is my only number which is given to all my clients and I am suffering huge losses because of this.

                    Today i.e when i called customer care again they asked me submit the documents again.
                    Does this make sence to submit the same documnets again and again.
                    Do they don't check the documents before receiving.

                    Request number on 15/03/[protected]
                    Request number on 17/03/[protected]
                    Request Number on 18/03/2010:[protected]

                    I have suffered huge losses due to this as well as there was much of mental tension because of this.

                    Can any one help me to fight against them.

                    My number is still not active.

                        Sir
                        I am using idea prepaid sim for last 3 years and get no major problem but just now they have deducted Rs 30 from my account without my consent for value added service on 11 march 2010 that was not activated by me. i got no call from them or made call to them to activate it. I contacted customer care and get reply that money cant be refunded. I just want my money back. Money deduction made me sleepless night when i checked my balance after one week later after activation.

                        Please stop this type of activities this only shows bad services from you. I will be very grateful to you if you could resolve my problem by refunding my money at your earliest.

                        Thanking you
                        yours truly

                        Dear Sir,
                        This is sheer height o[censored]nprofessionalism and apathy that I am being unnecessary harassed and penalized for no reason. I have been a very old and loyal customer of Idea but this incident has come to me as a shock and it's very upsetting. I have been charged for GPRS usage which was never active on my cell nor I ever applied or requested for the same. I was never communicated about any such service and to be noted that my Bill never exceeded Rs 600-700/-. This time it is Rs 2142/- which is unbelievable. I know my usage and quite aware of the Tariff rates. This is simply intolerable. Even on explaining this to the Customer Reps nothing has happened so far. To aggravate problem my SIM has been deactivated which is causing huge problem in my work and not at all expected from a company like Birla which is highly reputed company known for trust.
                        My sincere request to all the top management of Idea to look into this matter and resolve it ASAP.

                        Regards

                          I had bought a new Idea post paid connection on a written agreement from Idea Delhi that the advance will be refunded in first 2 months billing. They agreed and mentioned and signed it on the receipt (That I still have with me). Now once I got the bill on March 13th, to my surprise, they had charged a telephony charge of Rs. 500 to my new account (WHICH WAS NEVER EVER DISCLOSED TO ME)

                          The amount is not refunded and instead of activating my sim on my requested date, they activated it 5 days before resulting me in paying extra on my this postpaid.

                          Earlier, the sales team of Idea was calling me day and night requesting me to buy Idea sim cos they hadn't sold even a single connection, but now the same people aren't picking up phone to sort my query.

                          Shame on Idea!!! Not recommending Idea to anyone!!!!

                            I request You to kindly look into the matter & solve this as soon as possible.

                                    I am consumer of idea cellular punjab and i am user a cooperate group at name Venus Gas Agency Dhuri
                                    We asked our local dealer in dhuri for a new sim under the same group and was misguided that they cant issue a sim directly in our group. they asked us to buy a new connection which they later will transfer in the group. Later they refused to do so. Later on i came to know they just did this to sell a new sim whereas if they issued sim under group that was free of cost. Not only they charged for sim misguiding us also they have wasted our two months in the process. I am highly disaapointed as idea company is making such corrupt local dealers

                                        sir,
                                        i have puchase idea netsetter on 2nd feb '2010..
                                        they assure me that speed will be aprox 320kbps,, but till now its speed is 100kbps.. i complain many time but not a singlie positive result i am getting from them..
                                        so sir plase take a relevent step regading my problem.
                                        I am using idea Netsetter i was told the speed is 236kb/s but the actual speed is less than 10kb/s
                                        which is really of no use as you cant even open the sites with this speed .
                                        so i request you to do something regarding this .
                                        i am using idea net setter . At the time of parches they told that it will give me high speed ( up to 236 kb/s & it, s printed the box of idea net setter ) but speed of this is very very slow . the speed of this is 2.4 to 5.23 kb/s it is open cheating . retailer & costmer care no giving any response __TELL ME WHAT I DO.
                                        the company in starting has told me dat the speed of net setter is arouud 256 but when i used it the speed was very slow then i checked the speed through a site then it was around 10 so i logged complains to idea customer care many times but there was no action....................so i request to take serious action agains company,........ the site pager gets displayed in aoud 15 min.////
                                        dear friend unlock your modem and start using non idea sim in netsetter.
                                        IDEA NET SETTER NO slow speed very .bed experience on internet for speed
