Sir/Madam,
There is poblem of no network coverage in area for Idea Mobile user. I am living in Igatpuri Dist Nashik. I had given complaints for this problem to Idea customer care for five to six times till this date. I am giving this complaint on consumer forum on dt 12/03/2010 time 11.00pm. At this also there is no network coverage from last 2 hours. This is worst case i had seen on Idea network. We are paying for the service and not getting it at the right time. This problem is happening 4-5 times in a month from last three month. Kindly take strict action against IDEA CELLULAR LTD who is not at all customer centric.

Thank You

Sarika

I've submitted requested for DND (Do not Disturbe) service request on 17th Jan, 2010. As per TRAI, service provider should stop all the promotion call and messages after complete the 45 days but i'm still receiving promotion call from IDEA Cellular. When i was told to customer care, they are not given satisfactory replay.

I tried to activate national wide call rate 50ps offer(cost Rs.104) through www.ideacellular.com by internet banking(ICICI Bank), and the amount was deducted from my bank account . But i received a message to my mobile stating that the transaction has failed and the money will be reverted back in 7 working days and till now the money is not credited back. I called Customer care nearly 20 times and every time they give me a new deadline . My IDEA mobile number is [protected]

Hello,

I live in a societly called Atul Nagar situated at Warje, Pune - 411052.

My phone number is [protected].

I have been a customer for the last 5 years and have been living the location for the last 3 years. Till about mid of January the Idea network connection in my society was pretty good. Then suddenly one fine day the quality of the network reception dropped and I started experiencing call drops, very poor voice quality and extremely slow GPRS connection. I have raised numerous complaints with regarding the poor network in my society. The dates have been mentioned below when I raised a complaint with Idea cellular Ltd.

1. 28/01/2010
2. 01/02/2010
3. 02/02/2010
4. 05/02/2010
5. 13/02/2010
6. 18/02/2010
7. 20/02/2010
8. 23/02/2010
9. 01/03/2010

In January they told me that there is a temporary network problem which will get solved. Then their network engineer called me and told that it has been solved and I should check my network connection now. But when I checked after reaching home there was no improvement in the services.

Since then Idea customer care always raises a compliant and most of the times the complaint is closed, without even talking to me, by their network engineers saying that there is no ongoing issue in the area. Then I have to raise another complaint. This process has been going on for more than 1.5 months and now finally I have to knock the doors of the consumer court for a solution on this issue.

The only reason I am not changing my service provider is because I will have to lose my mobile number which is with numerous people and websites and my business cards as well.

I really hope that my voice is heard and a speedy resolution is met.

Thanks,

Hi Sir/Mam,

I want to file a complaint against your customer service. I had your mobile connection(number - [protected], with the name of Kanwarjeet Singh, add - B-1/198 Yamuna Vihar delhi-53). Due to loss of my cell phone in October-09, I blocked my SIM and closed my number by calling at your customer service department. They closed my number within two days. After few days I got a call from your customer service for replacement of the SIM. I Refused them to accept a replcement SIM so they forcefully delivered the SIM at my address. Now I am getting Bills everymonth for not using your services. Then I went to your customer service store at Yamuna Vihar and met with your Rep. Tarun Gulati. I Explained him scenario, he filed my complaint but did not give any complaint number. I went to him seven to eight times to know the status of my complaint but every time Mr. tarun was giving axcuses and did not resolve this issue. Now I am writing this letter to you and forwarding one copy to Consumer Forum. Its being more than four months, I am still waiting for the resolution. I would be highly obliged if you will resolve this issue and answe my e-mail.


Your Sincerely

I subscribed for INTERNET one day plan to use through my mobile.While announcing the plan it stated that the plan will get activated in 24 hours.But i got no activation till 24 hours.After 24 hours i enquired the problem through customer care executive.The reply was "you are able to use the plan after 4 days".But it wasted my time ie.24hrs.This is very poor network service.Please consider my complaint and help me to get out of this.
Thank you.

I have been using an Idea number for the past 6 years and I am a gold member. I had travelled to the U.S for a month and was on international roaming. Now while I was on roaming, I used the GPRS on the phone and made a few calls and apparently my bill amounted to Rs. 32000. Again, I am not sure if they have billed me correctly, but thats not the complaint here. My complaint is that Idea had sent me a message asking me to pay Rs 10,000 as interim payment since I had exceeded my credit limit which was Rs 8000 and it reached to Rs 32000. So when I returned to India, withing two days my number was barred completely including incoming and outgoing and hence I immediately paid all the outstanding amount but still my phone was not started for one day and I had to make multiple calls to the call center and I was really really hassled and stressed and I lost business because my phone number was barred. I am really unhappy with the customer service and I want some action to be taken against this bad customer service.
