Can anybody tell me how to unsubscribe from idea promotional sms and calls, its really getting annoying for me. Another thing, everyday Rs 1 is deducted from my balance even if i dont make any call, do you know why?

u can register ur account in *ideacelluar.com and check "Do Not Disturb" if u want it to do from computer.else dial 500 and answer to IVRS to unsubscribe.

Tried via web, but got a msg that number is invalid, dialed 500 also but unable to connect. I guess it's a corporate connection, thats why not working (It's my company mobile).
