Tips for avoiding spam callers..
Technology-Boon or Bane

Very well written review, Thakur, in a long time on MS. Ah, well on one score, regarding the Govt, asking to apply to the DND and The NDND List - I feel, It's completely fake. For I was one of the very few, whose Number was listed on Vodafone's DND list, by none other than the CEO himself....ye...t I used get enough calls, to irate. I registered for the NDND list also again thru my Service Operator and the Result - The calls to my number increased manyfold! So, now I don't rack my head with these tele-marketers, for I simply and very politely tell them the following: 1) For those who are upselling me schemes from Vodafone/ Airtel? I pretend I can't hear them clearly and ask them to call me back at the alternate number's - which is mostly of Top Rung Officer's at Respective Service Owners. I assume, these Officers take care of the rest...:). For I never get a call again! 2) For the Credit Card & Home Loans: I tell them I will accept whatever they offer, but I have no money to pay back....to which they very sheepishly shy away. and never revert back. Net-Net - Matter Resolved to a large extent. My Scam Incoming Call and even SMS Rate has dropped drastically. Maybe one odd, in a month or so! Thats what I shared in my revu on...'Vodafone Sarin-Looked Sober - But Who Knows?' ...too. Cheers & Happy New Year! ASRead More

Vishal, I can give u a befitting reply, but I have no time to waste on LOSERs. I strongly believe, 'Some are Wise, some otherwise' and u in my view fall in the latter! Goodbye & May God Give u some Constructive Work to do in life!

Enquire in detail, read small print of SBI card!
SBI Visa Credit Card

I am a SBI Card holder since the time it was launched, and regret, but till Date, I have not yet had any reason to complain, for the simple reason, their Escalation desks know their job and value customer feedback. No hardfeelings, but the solution to ur issue is SIMPLE - 'your need should be ...as important as theirs.' In other words, 'to expect Organisations to serve/ comply with standards, ask the Right Question.' And maybe u misinterpreted the ' free gold card, Rs. 10,000 free gift balance transfer at 0% interest' altogether? - Possible, Vishal? Think out of the box, sometimes, it helps to be just human! Wish u a happy new year!Read More

VOdafone-Hutch-Orange- whats in a name!!!
Vodafone Mobile Operator

Hi, Ur revu was a real opener - Eye (Not Bottle)!! 'If you still live in Utopian worlds, then This one shall clear all your doubts about the frequent 'CHINTO' Mobile Operator! ** CHINTO ** - in Airline Lingo stands for 'Name Changed into'- in case a confirmed booked passenger needs to chan...ge his Proper Name Only! Hope u are able to greet ur loved ones, this year on New Year Eve? Unless last minute CHINTO happens ....LOLz! Cheers! ' NB: Vishal, with due respect to your own intelectual capital, why so much argument? All Srikany did was to put forth his view-point and alarm others of the Operators Shortcomings! I see no reason for you to have become so personal abt another's perspective, at all? Suggesting any user irrespective of the yrs with the Service Provider, be it Hutch/ Vodafone, to switch operator is in itself a Misnomer! You sound quite like the HARDLINERS at HUTCH Corporate in Delhi? Regret, but perhaps you didnt get the Moral of Srikany's Story! Now this too is my perspective as an unbiased third-party, so please dont target me next...I'm no game to listening to FUNDAMENTALISTS! Srikany, just chill, this guy 'Vishal' is either a Vodafone employee portraying as a customer/ someone whose a UTOPIAN! (PUN INTENDED)... Remember it takes all kinda to make this world a Circular Event....Lolz! Heres to positively Fresh starts in 2008!Happy New Year! - AS Read More

Caught Cheating: Hutch Threaten's to Stiffle VOC
Hutchison Essar Mobile Operator

Challenge Hutch care, with this and VOILA!!! They Returned, The First Installment ? Which mean's what, that HUTCH admits, their folly? A sign of admission of guilt?, Though, ofcourse, publicly, they are 'SILENT'? but, by returning the actual amount? They are admitting, they HAVE Embezzled Public ...Money majorly. Well, here's the calculation, for your benefit, too: It's never too late to claim, what's Rightfully Yours? Be Persistent! 1) 0.50 Paisa/ Billing + Service Tax @ 12.24% + DAMAGE Interest x 84 (Subscription Mths) = Rs. Rs. 96.63 And in the bargain, if Hutch Legal Maamu, Threaten's you, put this REVU in your email, and forward it to the whole world, with a BCC to IT at CARE@HUTCH.IN I can bet they'll stop making Noise!! Moral: Persistence Pays. It's never too late? It's your money, Afterall? Claim it. NOW!! I think this REVU deserves, your time to RRC! Cheers! RC Read More

You know what, your Review is very well written and hilarious...I like that last sentence, dial 1 for....Dial5...but what does one dial for Talking to the DISSERVICABLE CCE? In delhi, I am part of this Care Touch, which is supposed to be for HNI Corporate Customers', the way these CCE answers: H...ello ....I am amit, tell me mein aapki kya sahayta karsakta hun? Note: HNI (High Networth Individual) Corporate - They should be addressing me by my Last Name, BUT they simply ignore, my name altogether. 90/100 times, the system is upgrading, thus they couldnt see my details, but when it comes to A/C verification, details, the system works? - 'Must be Jaadu' Also, when they have NOT Resolved one issue, at hand, they without, addressing your current concern, jump to 'Is there anything else I can do for you?' Arey...can someone tell them to 'HANG themselves, from their ceiling, or Jump out of the window...' ek issue toh resolve kiya nahi...aur kya karoge...' LOL.... Read More

Does Communication have holiday?
Airtel Mobile Operator

Please send this review to the head of all this, apparently, 'He doesnot know - how his company FUNCTION's...?' Sunil Bharti Mittal : sbm@bharti.com U atleast got a complaint number, maybe Andhra Pradesh, is yet to be listed on India's map. Rest of India, esp. the capital, New Delhi, is still ...lurking in darkness. It's the CCE who will decide, if the complaint is worth lodging or not? and No Complaint Number is generated, no matter how hard u may just try...Instead, I was told, if I wanted, I could call their Legal Head, Rajiv Arora, and they promptly, rattle out his number, 98105-05588. More Interestingly, while the National Consumer Helpline shouts thru, HT, that out of 48000 Complaints, they got b/w Mar2005-Mar2006, 18% are ALONE, about AirTel's UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES (OverCharged Billing). AirTel's self claim, however, is, 'Most Customer Responsive Avya Global Winner'2006. Very Interesting Indeed!! Thank You. Please read my revu TheAlchemist, and never opt for Post Paid, even if GOD tells u... Regards, Read More

Airtel a fraud providder--Contd.
Bharti Cellular Mobile Operator

Ah! With 4000 Crore Net Profit this fiscal, to Bharti Televentures alone, NOW I think customer's would know, where the money is coming from? Ofcourse, Overcharged, Inflated Billing Software, that Airtel Bharti (Mobile & Basic) are proud of owning. They wouldnt upgrade..? Why should they? If th...ey do, who will give PROFIT? So, Consumer Forum, can perhaps do justice, but, it's time to take the Bharti Bull by its HORNS, to public court, and cancel their Licences for such descrepency. National Consumer Helpline claimed last month, that out of 48,000 complaints, Airtel Billing had a whooping 18% to their credit. But are they moved? NO, Why? Because according to their LEGAL HEAD 'CONSUMER COURT, SBM ki jeib main hai'? .... Is Consumer Forum listening...? Corruption starts at Bharti Televentures, the largest Telecom infrasture today....? Iss desh mein sirf Corruption consistant hai, baaki sab...bekaar... Good Review! Thanks fr the detailed Input. Airtel Post Paid Customer - DelhiRead More

Hi Ashok, The one's they air are more than a year old issues? So what respite are these channels talking about. Why would they go for u? They get advertizements from these Co's, so why wud they air, your concern? Think about it.... As for ur revu, U aren't the only one, is all that i can empa...thize with u, at this point in time. However fr lawyer - don't get into the RUTT. They are all hand-in-glove. yes you could perhaps, logon to www.core.nic.in and file in the same. Not much would happen, but you would've added ur nail into AirTel's Fence. If that satisfies u to some extent. Read my TWO experiences both on AirTeL, and you'll know what I mean!!
