Idea Cellular Now Offers More Than Full Talktime in Kolkata & West Bengal

Idea Cellular Now Offers More Than Full Talktime in Kolkata & West BengalIdea Cellular today announced the launch of special recharge voucher for its users in Kolkata and West Bengal.

The new voucher will enable Idea prepaid subscribers to make Local, STD and ISD calls at affordable rates to their friends and relatives during the upcoming festival season, and also get more value for money.

The new special recharge voucher offers more than Full Talktime, as Idea is now offering Rs. 42 worth of Talktime on a recharge of Rs. 35.

Idea users in Kolkata and West Bengal who wish to avail the special offer can recharge with the new voucher which will also enable them to make Local and STD calls at just 40 paise/min. Talktime validity is for 7 days from the day of the recharge.

Idea has also introduced similar offers for its large base of users in the entire East region, covering Assam & North East, and Orissa, besides Kolkata & West Bengal.

    Tomorrow my Rs 14/- power will be expire for all local calls @0.30paise per minute running for three months. Is there any such type of power available presently in Kolkata Circle?( either 3month/6month/9month/1year for @0.30paise) If I do not recharge any power on 23rd will my call charge increase to @ re 1/- per minute or @ 0.40paise per minute?

    I don’t know what had happened to idea service. When I dial 53549, in one of the option it says night unlimited GPRS for Rs. 199. I subscribed for it & IVR says will ger activated in 4 hrs but 24 hrs are gone and it had not been activated. CC itself is great nuisance as they don’t know the details of any new offer & make me hold for several minutes. Seems they are being trained to do so as they may be able to eat with 50p / 3 min. Totaaly fed up …….
