[Resolved]  Idea Cellular — Number out of service for 4 days

Address:New Delhi, Delhi

Hello Friends, This is real review of my personal experience with Idea Mobile Operator recently. I was loyal customer to Idea and was using Idea Post Paid Corporate connection for almost 7 years. Due to Limited usage i contacted Customer care on Email and Telephonic to take an view to move from Post paid to Prepaid migration or port to other brand like vodafone or Airtel. Everyone advised to visit Idea center and fill form for post to Paid covert, i found thing so did the same. This was my First fault to decide migration, Idea store person informed me that connection will be start soon and will be out service for 2-4 hours of time, which was okay. Today it is 4th day and phone is out of service, imagine a 7 year old mobile out of service for 4 days. I prefer to wait for day visited Idea store and call customer care but they number is not Idea number contact vendor company. In spite of best effort not able to find number and existence and drop an email to customer care who has acknowledge but never think of replying with reason or inform customer. I am 7+ year old corporate customer and this is the service so cannot imagine what about normal single Idea buyer !!! This is third time i have such issue with company due to internal issues or wrong policies or no clear information moreover not to update customer or commit wrong things to book call. A long time ago they have barred my services after one week due to no payment and on several request i was able to activate the same. Later on they switch off Internet without any information. Cut the activated plans stating plan end of day and so on. I was expecting Idea will close connection for 4 hours and then everything will be good but never think of taking 4 days where i have already deposited the extra payment in advance clearing the whole outstanding. Good to be with brand instead and stuck in glitch of cheap offers or wrong commitments.

No one in company, who acknowledge and take responsibility to reply customer. This is 9th day Idea Connection is out of service and 7 continuous emails sent to [protected]@idea.adityabirla.com, appellate.[protected]@idea.adityabirla.com, [protected]@idea.adityabirla.com, ccare.[protected]@idea.adityabirla.com> and no one response to yet. Calling Customer care on alternate days and no response from there as well, they are not aware and want to keep time pass. Deposited the Documents on My Idea Center Advanced Computer Services- TFR 548- Shakar Pur East Delhi last 8th-Jan-2015 with advance payment for future call bills for Idea number [protected] but connection closed same day but not activated still. Small communication gap is normal but this much is real Bad to think about to company to keep goodwill but looks like this is normal and that is why no one is responding and keeping mouth or hand shut to avoid to be in case.

Very good keep it up and enjoy your life and let me try something new to short out now being i am the subscriber unfortunately...

Thanks

Hi Concern,

This is Atul Mohan, Using [protected] Idea number for last 7 + years and put request from Post to Prepaid migration to your My Idea Center Advanced Computer Services- TFR 548- Shakar Pur East Delhi on last 8th-Jan-2015 with advance payment for future call bills. I was informed that migration will take 3-4 days however number will be not active for 2-4 hours a day when actual migration will take place. My number got disconnected same or next day but since then no one is responding to email nor able to get help from Customer care number "198 and [protected]" no Idea portal complaint reply and number is out of service. This is really frustrating that company deactivates number and don't know anything about it and no one take responsibility to come and help customer. This clearly shows normal for company responsible person who knows a routine work and being customer cannot do anything other than request and if someone say something logical cut to phone case solved. In corporate world this kind of behavior is not good but i know lower people need to do what order to do...

Hi Idea support,

Finally, yes connection is establish on 12th day from disconnection. This was an awful experience being number not in service for 12 days in these is tough for any one but looks good for Idea being a normal process.

Need you to redesign your policy and correct mis-communication to avoid this for your normal customers. I hope you will understand and take an action on this.

Idea Subscriber,
Atul Mohan
