On one bright Sunday morning, I saw a bunch of people gathered around my building passage, I came down to inquire abt what was this rush for. I came to now that Iqara Broadband was conducting a demo for the society members for promoting their internet service.
Fine, I said lets give it a try so I sat on the computer and wooo, there u go, the speed was just too fast around 256kbps and that mind gobbling speed was like a jet for me coz’ I was using my local cable internet which was just a poor 40kbps in front of it.
Then getting impressed by the speed I booked a package of 256MB of 3 months validity for a whopping rs 500/-, whopping because my cable guy gave me unlimited internet @ rs 350/- per month. And after booking the package 20 days later a guy turned up for installation of wiring(was promised of 4 days).
He did the wiring and after the wiring was done again after 10 days 2 guys came up for the software installation and the internet service started exactly after a month I booked for it! Now is Iqara this much busy to make their customers wait for a month?
Anyway, it all started when the pack got activated, before purchasing the pack I was told that 2-3 MB would be deducted for 1 hour of internet usage and around 5 MB for 1 hour of yahoo messenger usage.
Then the guy who came for wiring told the around 6-8 MB for internet and 10MB for Yahoo messenger will be consumed, and when the software installation guys came they had their own story, the told that 12-15 MB for internet and same 10Mb for yahoo mess. But the practical thing was far away from the said thing. Internet consumed 20MB per hour and yahoo messenger consumed a heavy 3-4Mb per minute, can u imagine per minute????????
As days passed by the Mb’s started reducing, but the validity was 3 months and the pack did not survive even for a week, immediately I resumed my cable fellow back, and then same old story.
Iqara guys still keep on calling for renewal, despite of refusal several times they do not stop calling, I don?t know what substance on earth they r made of!!! They asked for reason, I told them that mb consumption is quite high, so they told me to take unlimited plan prices at Rs.964/- per month , price as high as thrice my cable guy was charging me, a mere rs.350/-........................
So guys don?t go on the brand name,
dikhawe pe mat jaao apni akal lagao :)
