606 is the no. of connections

33969 is the no. of pulses

I'm 100% sure of that.

Airtel is charging you at 50p/10kB instead of 10p/10kB

Get that checked out FIRST


33 MB used and due to the pulse rate rounding off the actual chargeable is 60 MB. The 33969 figure is in kilobytes.

No, its in pulses

1024kb= 1MB . . .which equates 33969kb to about 33.2MB.

From My bill:



seel, 1281 kB = 129 pulses

129 pulses = Rs 12.9 = 1290p which fits with 10p/10kb

As I connected only once, I have 1 where you have 606

1)called up customer care, who takes down dispute resolution request saying the amount will be waived.
2) call back few days later to confirm waiver, am told dispute team says charges are valid.
3) Speak to his senior. He finally understands the issue and says a waiver is correct. Unfortunately for him the amount is too huge to waive. Should visit ARC
4) Visit ARC. ARC fellow says they don't handle billing issues. Have to call 888 from a phone placed in the corner.
5) Online with 888. The conversation goes so ridiculous, its not even funny. Absolute incoherent non-sense was spewed out. Cant even describe. But an analogy to explain:

Me: "What color is the sky?"
Exec: "Sir a dog barks and a duck quacks"
Me: Wait . . .whaaa

Absolutely ignorant, mentally challenged people manning the phone one the other side. Absolute refusal to admit by 888 guys any wrong doing on Airtel's part when it is so utterly obvious. Confused all over the place with what a kb is , and a mb is, pulse rate is. This saying actually come out 100% true in this case: "Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience!"

Finally left the place after an hour on call. Am back to square one. They again took down a dispute request as was done in step one.

Have a conversation over email with normal CC.

After about 72 hours you will have enough nonsense from Airtel over email to contact the Nodal officer

----------

Also, how many complaint no's do you have already?

if its 2-3 get in touch with the nodal officer

Some new development-RIL to fund N18 & TV18's ETV Channels acquisition > afaqs! news & features
Quote:

Reliance Industries Limited has announced that a part of the interest owned by it in the ETV Channels is being divested to TV18 Broadcast Limited (TV18).


Under the given agreement, Infotel Broad Band Services Limited ("Infotel"), a subsidiary of RIL, has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with TV18 and Network18 Media and Investments Limited (Network18) for preferential access to all their content for distribution through the 4G Broadband Network that is being set up by RIL.


It is pertinent to note that Infotel is setting up a pan India 4th generation broadband network. With this, Infotel intends to take a leadership position in content distribution through broadband technology through a host of devices. Digital content ranging from entertainment, news, sports, music, weather, education and other genres will be a key driver to increase consumption of broadband.


As per the MoU, Infotel shall have preferential access to - the content of all the media and web properties of Network 18 and its associates; and programming and digital content of all the broadcasting channels of TV18 and its associates on a first right basis as a most preferred customer.


RIL, through investments of about Rs 2,600 crores by its group companies, currently holds interest in various ETV channels that is being operated and managed by the Eenadu Group. This includes a 100 per cent economic interest in regional news channels, namely ETV Uttar Pradesh, ETV Madhya Pradesh, ETV Rajasthan, ETV Bihar and ETV Urdu channel, a 100 per cent economic interest in the entertainment channels namely ETV Marathi, ETV Kannada, ETV Bangla, ETV Gujarati and ETV Oriya and 49 per cent economic interest in ETV Telugu and ETV Telugu News.


Now as part of the deal, a part of the above investments comprising 100 per cent interest in news channels, 50 per cent interest in entertainment channels and 24.50 per cent interest in Telugu channels are being divested to TV18 Broadcast Limited.


"The combination of India's leading TV content provider, with a bouquet of nearly 25 channels, and Infotel, will be a significant step in bringing a high quality "live TV" experience to broadband customers across the country. Likewise, Network18's market-leading web portals and e-commerce operations will provide several value added services to Infotel's broadband subscribers. This unique alliance is expected to differentiate Infotel and create value for all stakeholders," Reliance said.
It also has reference to Reliance plan of 4G deployment...

ICICI Bank: Access your banking details through Facebook

Posted: 03 Jan 2012 02:42 AM PST

Facebook has deprecated the older FBML system and I believe they now use inline frames. So, this would be pretty safe. But even then, it is a very bad idea considering the lack of awareness about phishing amongst the indian web user.

ICICI is playing with fire here.
