worst customer service by tata docomo

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 02:51 AM PDT

Recently I had worst service experience with tata docomo. I am using SIM of tata docomo with internet connectivity. In last week, to my surprise, two times  I felt that my balance was reducing at a much higher rate. Once it was reduced to zero and another time just after my recharge some rupees were deducted. When I inquired about this with service center they were not able to give any satisfactory answer. Moreover they blame me that I might have downloaded something....so pathetic...I have decided that I will switch to some other service provider.

Lack of network and no speed of internet

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 02:47 AM PDT

TATA DOCOMO service is very much slow and not active. I have so many time complained to customer service for lock of network and no speed of internet, but useless for me.Please do something.

The general cricket discussion thread

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 02:44 AM PDT

Why this thread?

So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread...

Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread...

Will start with one post

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Misbah & Taibu seem to competing with each other for the prize of who can bat more defensively....

Horrible Service by Tikona in Bangalore - Hebbal Kempapura

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 12:13 AM PDT

This is a verbatim transcript of an email I sent their contact center manager j.nair@tikona.in today

 

Hi all

 

I know that Mr. Nair will not read this email. All your customers who post their grievances on your forum cannot be wrong

 

I have a 4Mbps unlimited connection - User ID 1107736051

 

I stay in Bangalore and am connected through the Vishesh Complex Access Point

 

On and off I have been facing problems with the connection : No connection or dropping connection or low speed

 

The latest instance was yesterday

 

a) At 12:34 PM I tried your toll free number - the standard recording said that all agents were busy. Instead of offering a callback option, the message said that my number was noted down and that I would get a call back - that never happened.

 

B) At 8:14PM I tried the number again - this time I was told that the wait time was 5 minutes and was offered a callback option that I took - that callback did not happen either

 

c) At 8:50PM I called the tolled number and spoke with Aniketh believing that that the earlier callback requests were logged. I demanded that he puts his manager on the line. He said that if I want a manager I have to email this id. He did not even bother to understand why I was asking for a manager

 

d) From 8:50PM to 9:30PM I tried to send mails from both my Yahoo account and my daughter's gmail account - obviously neither went through because of the network speed issue

 

e) At 9:44 PM Rupesh took my call, confirmed that Aniketh had requested a senior to call me back and that the callback did not happen.

 

f) He 1st mentioned that he was unable to access the Bangalore AP. However on the 3rd attempt he was able to and said that the AP was good and that my roof top device was dropping signals. He organized an engineer's visit today

 

g) Your local engineer Raju ( Ph 9035882309 ) got the connection through but was not able to fix the speed issue. He said the issue was with the main Access point and that he would log a complaint with the concerned team. He seemed to be in a hurry to leave.

 

h) I called you tech support line around 1PM and spoke with Neha ( tolled number ) who said that the problem was not with the Access Point but with the roof top device. When I wanted to speak with a senior she offered a callback in 1 hour - that did not happen

 

i) I called back around 2:30PM spoke with a lady called Shalaka - who also offered a call back that did not happen

 

j) By that time we had a power outage and there was no power when I spoke with a person called Dinesh who said he was an L2. When I demanded that he puts a manager on the phone he said that ( a ) there were no managers on the phone and that he was the senior most person and ( b ) that if I wanted a manager I had to mail you.

 

k) Please tell me how on earth does a customer with a poor / dead internet connection mail your team in an emergency when your other staff are not helpful

 

My technical issue is still not resolved. What I have seen about Tikona till now is that :

 

1) You are a bunch of cheats - your IVR tells lies ( the callback requests are never logged ), your seniors do not heed the callback requests logged with your L1 agents.

2) When you reply to a customer's grievance it is very often in the form of an automated email that does not address the customer's issues

 

This mail goes verbatim on to your grievances forum and all other forums where Tikona customers have complained about your service

 

If any one wants to call me do so before 11:30AM - after that I leave for work and am not back till after 11:30 PM. I do not take personal calls when I am at work

 

Disgusted customer

It appears to be in the process of doing so to a little over 300 employees across departments. Sources in the company say the bulk of those asked to go are from the CNN-IBN and IBN7 channels.

 

A friend of mine worked there. He recently left his job largely because he knew this was coming and it was better to leave than getting fired.

Michael Schumacher News & Updates

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 10:38 PM PDT

Michael Schumacher is starting from second spot to what can be his title winning race of the season. He just need to score 2 points more than Rubens Barrichello. And by god if he gets that (even without winning the 13th race of the season), it would be tremendous achievement. 5th Title in a row... And that too with such a dominating season...

A shufoso like me needs no more! Though I won't mind 2-3 more titles... :D

Get that 7th Championship!

Fernando Alonso News and Updates

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 10:37 PM PDT

Fernando Alonso topped the timesheets on his return to Renault today at Jerez lapping the Spanish circuit a tenth clear of countryman Pedro de la Rosa. It was an impressive return to the team for Alonso as he put in 70 laps with a best time of 1:19.503s.

It was a busy day for the McLaren Mercedes team with de la Rosa putting in 111 laps in his MP4-23 while Kovalainen sixth fastest, completed 130 laps in the new machine.

Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa were third and fifth fastest respectively for Ferrari with Nico Rosberg running well in his FW29 with the fourth fastest time.

Sebastian Vettel and Sebastien Bourdais proved closely matched for Toro Rosso Ferrari with the seventh and eighth fastest times while Mark Webber was ninth best in the Red Bull Renault.

Kazuke Nakajima rounded out the top ten in his Williams Toyota ahead of Timo Glock in the leading Toyota TF108 and Giancarlo Fisichella in the Force India Ferrari. Kamui Kobayashi brought up the bottom of the timesheets in the second Toyota while Super Aguri Honda did not run after problems encountered yesterday.
Renault continued its preparations for 2008 today with Fernando Alonso taking over driving responsibilities from Nelson Piquet.

It was an important day as it was Alonso's first appearance in Renault colours since being confirmed as a 2008 race driver in December.

Arriving at the Jerez circuit yesterday evening, the Spaniard spoke to the engineers to understand how the first day of the programme had gone, and to prepare for his two days work with the team.

His first day behind the wheel gave the Spaniard the opportunity to drive a car in accordance with the 2008 electronic regulations, and most significantly without traction control. It was also a good opportunity to reacclimatise to the team with which he has worked for six years in the past.

At the end of the session, having covered 70 laps, the overall result was an encouraging first day as Alonso topped the timesheet with a best lap of 1:19.503s.

Fernando Alonso
"The result of my first day in the car is encouraging. I could not wait to drive again, but at the same time I was a bit tentative. I quickly settled back in to the team and everything went well. We made good progress throughout the day, but there is a lot still to do. I had to adapt at first to the car and get used to driving the car without traction control, but I am convinced that that soon I will be used to this and will not remember what is was like to drive with traction control."

Static IP improves service drastically

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 10:03 PM PDT

From past few days my service was just pathetic. i am having a 2mbps unlimited plan on which download speed was 2mbps but the upload speed was around 400kbps. There were issues of packet drop and high pings. So a guy from tikona suggested me that i should take the static IP service and there will be huge change in your service. And guess what he was correct.

 

Benifits

1. No login page ever.

2. Connect as many PC with your Wifi router.

3. download speed of 3.5 mbps

4. upload speed of 2mbps

5. super low pings.

6. no packet drop.

 

Drawbacks

1. you will have to shell out Rs1500 a year.

This leaked Windows 8 PC reportedly packs some pretty run-of-the-mill specs, including a 1.0GHz, dual-core AMD A4-1200 CPU (with Radeon HD 8180 for graphics), 2GB of RAM and a 320GB hard drive. What's also of interest here is that ASUS is said to be bundling it with Microsoft Office Home & Student 2013, which would certainly be a useful tool to interested parties.

Patanjali branded products

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 01:59 PM PDT

So, a local shop is running a special offer. Buy 'Indian Made Stuff' for above Rs. 1000 and you get some products from this company free. Mom told me that this brand is owned by Ramdev. The brochures of the brand in the shop claimed that they are an Indian brand which sell products at zero profits to benefit the people of India. And some propaganda was there to promote buying Indian made items alone and whatever.

Not sure I like the propaganda part. 

Creating a Google Alias?

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 01:58 PM PDT

I have a childish Google ID. I had created it when I was a kid and now feel ashamed in giving it to anyone.

 

Same was the case with my Yahoo ID but I successfully created an alias there and it worked out pretty well.

 

I wanna do the same for my Google account? Is it possible.

 

I use so many Google services, GMail, Google+, Android, Blogspot, Hangouts, Chrome, etc. to name a few where I use my Google ID. Is it possible to create an alias so that I can log in using the new ID and have all the settings and other stuff there.

 

Something like there are two usernames for one account and the new one becomes the primary username.

 

Possible?
