befooling customers

I just took the ISD card with which the call rates to Malaysia were to be only Rs 6.99 per minute.The worst part is that before i bought it i had word with the distributor and customer care Executive, and he said it very surely that the amount to be deducted will be only Rs. 6.99 per minute, but when i made a call the amount deducted was same that is Rs 9.2 per minute.

What a pity that IDEA has to loot customers in this way,...
