Address: 500037

Even after several complaints and dnd registration, idea is looting people with small amounts like rs. 3 every now and then towards vas services on shortcode 51998. When asked, the customer support guys argue that i have requested for the service. But, i never requested for any such services and my mobile was under use at the said time. Aditya birla group is known for its quality services but looting their customers with these kind of cheap tricks is not acceptable. Please stop such unnecessarily billings and refund my amount. You can retrieve my number from the attached transactions screenshot.
