Reliance:
It was an electric post that pulled me to this trouble.
The offers and unlimited plans of reliance, pasted on the electric posts and apartment gates attracted me towards ringing them. The collection of application and documents happened on the same day and was told that the connection will be ready within maximum of 3 working days. At that point of time I felt the same confidence level in him that Anna Hazare has in getting the holy Lokpal passed.
The very next day I received a mail that included my Login details of the broadband connection from broad minded people. But that was it and then never I received any updates from them and made me to sing ‘The End’.
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday the days passed and I felt the immense feeling of losing the 500 rupees that I handed over to the agent in the form of cheque. The agent never picked my call, customer care responded as per the dialogues written in their script. Finally with the help of ‘cancellation of cheque’ option in HDFC I saved my 500 rupees unlike my other friends.
Reliance part two:
After I got shifted to a new room, again the posters on electric posts and their unlimited plans and offers motivated me to call the Reliance customer care with request for a connection, but this time with a hypochondria effect. The result was the same again. Similar to the last time, the fast process got stuck with the collection of the 500 rupees cheque. Again my longing for an unlimited stable broadband connection remained in infinity as of Sachin’s 100th international ton.
