SWITCHING TO AIRTEL... WHAT AN IDEA!

Re: need advice all of you

FRIENDS NOW I CONFIRMED THAT I AM CHANGING MY CONNECTION FROM BSNL TO AIRTEL FOR SURE,there is a limit which bsnl crossed in sucking anyone,so i finally decided to take h699 plus of airtel 256kbps unlimited from next month,i hope airtel will not do same as bsnl,i hope there will be low ping in airtel and no disconnection with no downtime,lets try airtel now i thought,i mainly use broadband for online gaming in that department i gave bsnl 2 out of 10 in my area,i downloaded more than enough,so i have nothing to download now,even 2nd bsnl connection did not help me same problem as before,even bsnl lineman said me to change to airtel he said there is no staff in bsnl,in my area only 2 lineman for repairing connection and people wait here 7 days to fix connection,lineman said all are dumbass in bsnl,what will i do for u,this is government company so they will not change as they are,hope that i will online play better with airtel,if airtel will do same as bsnl then i will better to disconnect broadband,it means in my area every isp sucks,hope for good

Err.. Latency?

I Lost the long fight Against Airtel Broadband
Yes guys thats true,
I had high ping to europe.battle.net but with mtnl i had good latency so i called customer care EVERY DAY and next day the guy comes to my house and he knows nothing what latency is and what i am trying to tell him he looks at me and laugh. Then i write emails nothing happens i call again and again write email and email guys come and go out but LATENCY IS SAME. I finally gave up after one month but I SUGGEST YOU ALL NEVER TAKE AIRTEL BROADBAND.

Default Re: I Lost the long fight Against Airtel Broadband
thats how the system works... u complain - they send a guy - unable to rectify ur complaint - 1st they laugh at complain (if they cann't understand) and then at u - and if u get irritated, and then start irritating Airtel (or any Service provider), they offer to close down ur connection and refund the one time fees/deposit - and then u're left with nothin..

one is very clear, a complain is very valuable feed-back for the company (and thats true - atleast for the private service providers were there's no monopoly ), and if they cann't rectify then its there defect with the service provider, unrelated to nature of complain.

as regards to ur complain, i believe its routing specific and they jus can re-route the traffic from and of ur area as whole jus to satisfy only u (out of all BB users - there are less than 5 % serious gamers- i think) - best possible solution - grow ur local community which is on Airtel for gaming - and then complain collectively.. - that MIGHT help....

AREY BABA CHALIS CHOR

THINK TWICE

Ok if you are a prepaid Airtel consumer think more than twice before subscribing to any of thier promo schemes. It seems to be a front to knock off your balance and well at the end of it there is nothing you can do about it.

I had subscribed to their SUB38 scheme under which Rs 38 gets deducted from ur prepaid balance (after u send an SMS to 170 with SUB38) and you get the next 100 SMSes free for 30 days.

Day 1 - I send the message. Rs 38 gets immediately deducted from my balance. I send SMSes and and my balance is still getting deducted. I call up customer care and they say wait 24 hours.


Day 2- 24 hours later. My balance is still getting deducted. Call up customer care again..they register complaint. And the service is activated at 8pm

Day 3 - My prepaid balance goes from Rs 75 to zero rupees. Just like that. i call up customer care...and they say oh Rs 38 has got deducted from your prepaid balance twice because u subscribed to the SUB38 scheme. Your complaint is registered.

Day 4 - Deducted money still not back. [By now getting back the Rs 75 had become a mission]. Call up customer care. Put on hold for 5 minutes (30 seconds according to customer care). Than a "I am still checking checking.." and call gets cut. I call again. This time the fellow is some illiterate, illmannered idiot who keeps giggling throughout. I ask for his senior and he says koi nahi hai. I ask if the calls are monitored for quality and he giggles even more.
I call yet again. This time I am told sorry according to the system u sent the SUB 38 message twice so it got auto deducted. I asked am i an idiot to send a subscription message thrice...he says sorry according to the system u did. you must have got a confirmation thrice. I said not a single time -- well in that case u must have deleted them. And call ends.

Now what do i do? I wish thier was audio uploading facility here so i could record and upload those conversations.
