Tata Indicom is slow. Tata Indicom is pathetic.
Tata Indicom is slow. Tata Indicom is pathetic.
Ok. My cellphone has totally freaked out. I need to shift my number from the old Tata Indicom handset to a new one. Since it’s a CDMA based phone, I had to go to the Tata Indicom support center in Gurgaon. They just have one of those in the whole city.
It’s hard to find parking in the area around the mall where they have their official setup. We went there. The dude did the required changes in the backend within 10 minutes. All good.
Umm. Not really.
He told me that the shift would take a maximum of 12 hours. First the old handset would stop working and after a while the new one would start working.
If the new one does not start working within that period, I would have to visit them AGAIN to get it programmed. They cannot program it right away for some god damned reason.
Within 10 minutes, the first cell phone had stopped working. The new one does not work still.
Knowing Tata people… I WOULD have to go to that mall to go to their showroom to get it programmed. Like I did it the first time I got the connection.
I am complaining because when I took the connection, I ASKED them to give me a SIM based CDMA connection. They lied to me and gave me a Simless connection. So, I am dependent upon them to get my handset changed. I am so totally disappointed in them.

sue them for giving a simless connection when asked for a SIM based connection.

i was told verbally that the connection they were giving me was a sim based one. they even placed the sim in my phone.
later i realised that the phone was working without the sim!

i too am a sufferer at the hands of tataindicom.
i took a handset along with prepaid connection for Rs 1200.it was SIM based connection,though freebees were offerd,it had a very high rate of outgoing calls to non tat no.s.after a few days ,i was offered to shift to postpaid sdervice ,with a cash deposit of Rs.600.00.and with a promise of much lower call rates,lot of free time talk time thrown in etc etc.
BUT I FIND I AM PAYING MORE FOR THE SAME SERVICES (in the post paid) WHICH OTHER WISE APPEARED COSTLIER IN PREPAID VERSION.
They all(private service providers) cheat.

Hi friends,
Please see to it that no one buys Tata Indicom Plug and Surf Wireless Internet connection. I bought one in june paying 3800/- and it is lying in my house totally waste. Five minutes it takes for one page to come up and sometime the software restarts the system frequently. It is pathetic than the dial up connection which i had in 2000. In spite of giving numerous complaints past 2 months, no one has turned up to check my problem, only 700/- bills comes correctly. Please don’t fall into this trap.
Shabs..
