Its been too long since, I wrote a review, as I didn't find any product Innovative. All the other launches in the industry are like "Follow the Crowd."
The first reason I choose, Tata Docomo is because its billing is Second pulse.
I took a Prepaid conection in Hyderabad, few weeks back.
First I like to mention this services advantages:
1) Seconds Billing:Ever since I took a mobile phone~8 years back, I have been wondering why should we pay for the Incoming calls! & why should we pay for a Minute, when we talk in Seconds!
How will you feel, If you buy 200grams of grocery Items & Made to pay for 1Kg?
Its been happening in the telephone Industry since a very long time, & nobody is Questioning because, it was "**The Industry Standard"!
Finally the answer came, charging for incoming calls were removed & its time to stop charging for the unused time.
2) 60Paise/Minute(Across India!):
*Most networks are charging @ 1Rupee/minute for Local call &~1-1.50Rs./Minute for STD; depending on the service provider & the package.
An extra amount for some packages & for prepaid users bonus cards is to be brought for 40-60Ps/Min charges.
Now, here comes Tata Docomo, only 1Paise/1Second= only 60Ps/Minute. Across India its same price as an introductory offer, has to see how long will this offer remains!
Otherwise its 2ps/Sec for STD.
ISD is also charged in seconds for just 11p/sec for US/Canada.
Network, Signal strength: But the Only Drawback with Docomois, the Network is not that strong(in few Areas in Hyderabad) as Vodafone, Idea etc.But its almost OK, I'm hoping it will improve in the near future.
When I took Hutch connection, during its launch the situation was same now it became a strong player. Same will be the case for Docomo.
There is a Missed Call Alert(MCA) free service, if signal drops or if u switch off the phone, u will get te MCA, when u switch on again.
Some SMS offers are also there, if u send 3 SMS each costs 60ps, you will get the next 250 Local SMS on that day FREE.
I don't know about Postpaid plans & didn't find any exclusive outlets yet, but the prepaid offers are very good & it became almost impossible for me to get a Starter pack during the lauch period, as most the dealers had No Stocks.
Theres a Demand-Supply Imbalance, to my knowledge Docomo connections are selling like hot cakes. Starter pack costs only Rs. 49 for lifetime.
So hurry, Grab ur number before its too late. Don't follow the Crowd, DO THE NEW.
