I lost my idea sim ([protected] delhi circle) and got it reissued on 28 dec 2019 from mumbai. They said it will get activated within 4 hours. Even after 7 days the sim is not registered on the network. I called the customer care multiple times but they kept on saying wait for some time, we cant do anything.
Kindly look into the matter as i have important accounta linked to that number

Thank you...

I have already raised a complaint a month ago to customer care regarding unauthorised deductions of ₹5/- on receiving call from random numbers starting 815... But to no avail. Without consent of customer, company has been calling repeatedly on daily basis. Once you pickup the call you end up getting a sms stating ₹5/- has been deducted owing to sports download from one97 which i haven’t opted or subscribed till date.
