Just to get a common understanding of some terms and some statements in your script
- I can't see a multidimensional array. What would you call a multidim array? Why do you need it?
- The arr_cust is used ONLY for the output file name - is that intended?
- Both charged_data and notcharged_data are populated by exactly the same algorithm (except the $ sign is missing for the latter) - intended?
- Both arr_cust and arr_ids are constants - why redefined in every loop iteration?
- Same for the data_call et al. in the services loop.
- No surprise the index loop doesn't work as it loops across the undefined array.
- Some dones missing for several for loops.
- What do you need the (deprecated, dangerous) eval commands for? Can't the result be achieved in another way?

All this is quite irritating and misleading. Why don't you post a decent input sample, the desired output for it, and describe the logics connecting the two in plain English?
