Hi folks. Lets talk about cell-phone services... what ? U dont even want to talk about that ? I know ..I know. Let me post 1 question first - any person totally satisfied ( even modestly satified would do ) with a mobile conection in Delhi ? plz respond if u are the lucky pal.
Which service Im subscribed to? Its Hutch. Ya they follow me wherever I go is OK. But then I wish I dont get those ghost bills....and wait I dont even get my bills for last 4 months. Network and talk clarity are the reasons why Ive taken Hutch connection. Deteriorated but still the best in Delhi I would say.
I tried to send SMS to my mom in Kolkata for 2 days. It was giving send failed right away. I kept on trying. Contacted customer support to verify the message settings were correct. On the 3-rd day the SMSes started flowing. 7 days later when I enquired my bill - it was showing around Rs.400 more than it should have been.
The issue is on debate till date ( 3 months ) and I havent got the waiver yet. I get fictitious response everytime I contact cutomer service. In most conversational and logical experience - the staff told me - They do not guarantee any SMS delivery to BSNL Kolkata as they do not have a tie up. I said fine - u dont have to - but atleast dont charge for those unsent SMSes. She explained once a SMS is uploaded in network server it is the automated process which generates the billing. I said wow!!? Written e-mails to billing - no response - most of the time the CCEs put me on hold - nice music man! But became very known tracks to me.
Switch to Airtel? Didnt have a good experience with their prepaid too. Tried MTNL Trump even - poor conectivity and voice quality. But atleast they dont cheat.
So... I still enjoy the company of my cell service provider... no wonder its beautiful world !- poor Delhites - we dont even have a decent choice!!
