[Resolved]  Idea Cellular — Prorated overage charges for GPRS

Address:Thane, Maharashtra, 401202

Bill showed Prorated overage charges added on 9/1/17 when I had changed the package. This was not initially mentioned to me. My billing cycles starts from 9th of every month. I did change the plan on the first day of my billing cycle then too I have been charged Rs. 185/-
And also inform me at what time should I change the plans if I want to or should avoid doing it by ourself and ask the costumer care executive.

Same happened to me. Idea has blunt way of calculating pro-rated bill in case of post paid plan change. Such ethics lacking people. Always think of how to loot people of their money.

SUPPOSE YOU HAVE 1GB DATA IN YOUR CURRENT PACKAGE of RS. 299 MONTHLY. IF YOU CHANGE THE PLAN ON 1ST OF THE MONTH AND YOU HAD ALREADY USED 1GB DATA ON 1ST,
THEN
IDEA CHARGES YOU RS.1400 EXTRA IN THE NEXT MONTH BILL. THEIR EXPLANATION IS UNTIL 1ST YOU ARE ENTITLED TO ONLY 33MB DATA, SO REMAINING 967MB DATA IS CHARGED AT 10PAISE/KB, WHICH IS SO ILLOGICAL. THE CHARGES FOR 29DAYS ARE EXTRA AS PER NEW PLAN BTW.

CUSTOMER CARE IS WORTHLESS. YOU CAN FACE FEW OF THE WORST IN THE INDUSTRY HERE, WHO CANT SPEAK ANY PROPER DIGNIFIED LANGUAGE.
