MTNL has no " Customer Care "


Guys i am sick of mtnl's so called "Customer Care" .m writing this post in shear frustation .
I have trib500 combo plan and m supposed to get 2mbps speed but that's just on paper . A while ago i used to get it though .But then (a yr back or so) one day i saw broadband speed plummeted below 20KBps.may be sm server error or so.I ignored and waited .But that 'server error' Never got corrected . i cant actually guess the reason for that sudden schange in speed , but i think it may be due to mtnl's upgrading my download limit from 500 mb to 2.5gb(a free gift with *Condition Apply??) ,or my choosing for IPTV connection too.
I have called up mtnl 'cutomer care' ,countless number of times.Let me give u the 'Customer Care' Scenario. Mostly that 1504(customer care number) busy , and if itz not then u hv to wait for a long..........queue to end . and at last wen they pick up the phone u r left to deal with underpaid, computer illitrate people(sm times i had to tell them the details of mtnl broadband!!!). Well sm how i registered the complaint and waited for days .Next time i call , i gv them my cmplaint number just to get sm absurd sounding answer (sm thing like cmplnt pending,server error ) . Guys itz just the fact that the sleepy speed department has wrongly downgraded my speed .
So after my repeated complaints fell on deaf yrs ,i searched net 4 soln. Mtnl runs online complaint portal too!!!! .Itz at http://203.94.244.173:7777/vcare/index.jsp. so i tried der as well but with no hopes . Well Must say if u complaint online , u get timely response , well within 24hrs(but that does not mean thats useful) . I complained for speed problem. Next day i got a call from mtnl,asking if my net is wrking. Well yes ofcourse ,didnt u read my mail ! .But the same old reply-SERVER ERROR .
To add to injury evry now and then i meet sm one who says he's gettin 2mbps speed,that too on UNLIMITED PLAN(tell u , unlimited plan has 256kbps speed), and downloading 4-5 gb a day!!!( der r many like dem ) .Such a waste of bandwidth on mtnl's part .A pure mismanagement .
In last i would like to remind that accordin to TRAI regulation broadband means -"Atleast 256Kbps bandwidth" M gettin less than that .It can hardly be called broadband .

wat should i do to solve the situation ?wat do u say ? put an RTI for it (On Girisih's path ) ...
or may be Consumer Forum(ya i mean it) .Look my bandwidth should be 2Mbps ,as promised , But they have set it too 256Kbps

GULAL ............a review NOT ...

This weekend i got to watch movie : GULAL by Anurag Kashyap . and i must say i wasnt disappointed by this Bolly flickat all. I just cant stand those songs running around trees :P . If you came here searching for some formal review of gulal movie giving u teasers of the movie you can stop reading it , and google another page . Itz my perspective of the film . As i said i rarely watch bolly movies , particularly hate those meaningless songsand item numbers (which account for major earning of movies ;) ) ; this was not much different in that respect , but the way songs(1 or 2 only in the film ) were mixed with the storyline , the way story moves with it , it seems a perfect way of presenting the complex plot. Movie deals with student politics , local rebellion to gain Back Rajputana , lead by Dukkey Bana(Kay Kay Menon) and the brother-sister couple (Aditya and Ayesha(Kiran ....forgot the name of brother :P)), the illegitimate children of an erstwhile Rajput king, trying to get the name o...

My Desktops New Look

After bearing up with the boring look of ubuntu , for quite a time , primarily due to lack of free time (dont think m a completely vella now days) , I decided to spice my Ubuntu a bit . Above is the snapshot of my latest desktop .Isnt it Cool ? Without going into technical details(I plan to keep this blog tech free , as much as i could, but no one knows the future ;-) ) Let me point out sm special things .First is at the right , displaying all specifications of my pc ,dynamically .Moreover i can change every thing there by just a small script . Next is the cool look of the boring terminal . and if u noticed , kde apps on ubuntu(amarok and ol ). I have kde installed on ubuntu too :-) ,Never forget noticing the panels and system theme . Mind you for all this , i havnt put much of extra resouce hungry apps. So not much loss in ubuntu speed . In fact for all practical purposes , loss of resources is negligible . You can say a perfect balance of look(eye candy) and performance. There'...
