If you have faced similar situations and looking for a solution then you are in the right place. Here we have brought these genuine tricks to get the idea call history that will give results within a fraction of a minute. So let’s get started and follow every step carefully

Call details in Idea

Initially, Idea used to provide the option to get the idea call details on its official website and also on its MyIdea app.

In September 2020, Vodafone India merged with Idea Cellular formed a new operator and named it Vodafone Idea Limited.

After the integration of Vodafone and Idea, neither of the operators provides the feature to get idea call history on its official site and app.

But we have found a way to get the Vi call details directly to your email id. So friends keep scrolling down to know the process.

1. Idea call details: Call 199/198

To obtain the idea call details the only method is to contact the idea or VI customer care executive. You can either use 199 or use numbers from this list to contact them.

Before proceeding to contact customer care, follow these important steps in order to get the idea of call history quickly.

• Install and open the VI official app
• On the homepage, you can see MY Account at the bottom
• Go to my account
• Tap on edit profile
• Give an alternate mobile number
• Fill up the email box. This is the email ID where you will get the idea call details
• After entering the email id, an OTP will be sent to your email id for verification
• Now cross-check if everything is correct
• After completing this process you can dial the customer care number

Many times users face problems when they try to contact customer care agents. You will not hear any direct option to contact the authorities. So here is an easy way to get ideas connected with customer care agents

• Dial 198
• Listen to the IVR voice and give option 3 as a response
• Actually, option 3 is to know the idea data balance, but this is one of the easiest ways to talk with the executive
• Keep listening to the IVR voice until it starts giving the options.
• Now select option 4 to get connected with the Idea customer care agent.
• Sometimes the option to get connected with the customer care executive changes.
• For my case, it was option 4 but you might be asked to enter any other number like 7 or 9
• Ask them to send the idea call history to the registered email ID that you updated on the VI app
• You can idea incoming call details for the last 180 days

Note: If you are still facing any problems, you have to contact customer care using your regional VI contact number. Here is the list of regional idea customer care contact numbers. Click on the link and then click on the drop-down button to see the list of contact numbers based on different circles.

2. Idea Call history using USSD codes

If you want to stay away from all these calls and customary care numbers then you can use the official USSD codes of Idea to know the last 3 Idea incoming call details

• Dial this code *199#
• Wait for a few seconds for a popup to appear
• You will see a window showing you all the details like Main balance, validity, etc
• Along with this information, you will be asked to choose one option
• Choose 0 (More)
• Then in the next window select 6 (Other details)
• After this, you will be shown another popup
• Select 3 (Quick help)
• You will soon receive an SMS with Quick Help shortcut codes as in the image below.
• In the message box, you can see a USSD code for Balance and Deductions
• Dial that code (*199*2#)

Or else you can directly dial this USSD code *199*2# in the dial pad to get an instant idea call history details

3. Idea Call history using Email

You can write a mail to the official email ID of idea number –

An indirect method to get call details of any number

Although you will get the idea call history using these official methods, still there is another indirect way to know the last 5 call details of your idea number.

You can download and install some call recording apps from the Play Store and on your phone. These call recording apps can help you to know both the incoming and outgoing calls of your idea number. You just keep this app pre-installed on your phone so that whenever you want to get the idea call history, you can check the idea call details from that app.

You just install any top-rating call recording apps from the Play Store. I use the Automatic Call Recorder app

Note: It is recommended to use the official methods since these methods are 100% safe. Use this app only when you find it very urgent to save and know the idea call history

Be aware

I have seen many websites and videos claiming that an app can show you call details. But let me tell you, friends, these apps can be found to be fraudulent.

They just try to fool you. Even if you search call details on the Play Store, it will show you 100 such apps with fake ratings and reviews, but trust me, friends, all these apps are just trying to dodge you.

These apps are programmed with such an algorithm that whenever you try to get call details by entering credentials, that app will do nothing but simply get the details from your recent call logs.

And those data will be made available in PDF format. Or show results directly on your app. These apps neither do any magic nor show you official call details. They show you the same data as your phone’s recent contacts.

You can try it yourself to check the reality. You just download any such app from Google Playstore.

Open the app after installation. That app will ask permission for media, gallery, phonebook, contacts, and call logs. And be alert otherwise all your details will be accessed by those apps and stored in their database.

You just wonder why these apps ask for permission to manage your contacts or gallery. If they were genuine, they could have shown you the data without such permission.

During my experiments with these applications, I had cleared my recent contacts and surprisingly none of the apps showed me the idea call history.

It simply shows how they fool customers and make big bucks by showing irritable advertisements at every step.

Some apps pretend to be real. Apps in this category try to be smarter. They will ask for the country code, operator, location, name, and number and after entering all the details, they will redirect you to the official website of Idea by falsely claiming to show the last call details in Idea prepaid

So friends don’t trust these fraudulent apps and prevent your data from being breached by hackers
