Chennai, Dec 3 (IBNS) : The incessant rain over the last few weeks has disrupted life and business in Chennai and other parts of Tamil Nadu, and the telecom infrastructure in the region has also witnessed disruption.

Idea Cellular has been working 24x7 to ensure customers can continue to use the network, despite difficult conditions.

Realising the inconvenience faced by lakhs of customers in the region to recharge and connect with loved ones in such times of emergency, Idea has started crediting 10 Local mobile minutes and 50 MB of 2G data in the prepaid accounts of 19.5 lakh customers in the five affected Districts of Chennai, Kancheepuram, Cuddalore, Thiruvallur and Pondicherry.

The credit process started on Dec 2.

For postpaid customers whose bills are due, Idea is extending the payment dates and will ensure that services continue.
