I registered to use NOW ISP after seeing their ad coming out of the woodwork in Bombay. I must confess that the registration process was easy and painless as I could do it using my existing VSNL account.
I was also thrilled when I got 57K connects. But hold on. Thats only when I could get the connect. Most of the time you get an engaged tone. The only times you can get a good connect is early in the morning or late at night. The biggest problem is that I have yet to remain connected for more than 10 mins at a time. After 10 - 12 mins you can bet your a--e that the connection is going to drop and you have to re-connect.
Now they have sent me a bill which says that I have not used any hours but I have to pay a Rs 199 activation charge. Can someone advise me what I should do.
I have already renewed my VSNL account using my credit card and I find that this is the most reliable connection albeit slow. I always get through at the first attempt and the connection rarely drops.
