After that I submitted my all required docs (including MNP form along with Porting Code) through Airtel Reps. After an hour I got a msg from 1901 as ""Request for porting your mobile number to airtel has been received and your application is in process."
10 minute later I got a msg from Vodafone as"Hello! We have received your porting request VD11**99 dated 21Jan11. We will validate your request and will revert on confirmation by 96hrs TAT from the time we received the request from MCH."
......and 5 minute later I got a msg saying-" Hello! Your porting request VD11**99 dated 21Jan has been rejected due to The Porting Code does not match the Donor allocated Porting Code for this number. Request you to call our customer care at111 or walk int o our Stores for further action."
I cross checked the Porting Code. It was correct. Then I called on 111 only to get a Complaint number to be resolved in max 48 hrs. They also asked which operator I am migrating to and alternate contact number.
Before MNP I went to convert vodafone postpaid to prepaid. But executive was an idiot and he refused to do so. He simply closed my connection without my consent.

And trust me HAYAI being a new firm to the market and keeping such high prices, first of all trust should be built among customers.
Considering such high buzz among the people here at the forum even before hayai is actually launched, I do not think trust is a problem.
As you expect me to trust you, the trust will be established automatically.
As for the Rs 1000 1 mbps thing, it is not possible with the inclusion of decent data usage in the bracket of 80 -100 GB, as MGC has already repeated 1000s of times.
However if torrents are not in your criteria, then Hayai lite meets them perfectly, with 30 GB usage for Rs 649 p.m. and speed >3 mbps

This incident already happened to one of the isp in UAE, where the cables got damaged bcause of a anchor which hit the cables and network got disrupted and lack of stability occured.

It took a long time for them to recover from this problem.

But an alternative should be there to it.
And wht alternative would u suggest??? Laying a cable that would enter us from pakistan or maybe china??? if u consider the alternative I feel submarine cables are the best best for cost effective & stable bandwidth...

Use a Bandwidth meter to keep and eye on your usage .Try one from Shaplus.

Which mode do you use ? PPPoE or Bridge ? In PPPoE you need to switch off the modem to disconnect internet. But it will be negligible if your PC is off.

Complain to SDE about unaccounted usage.

When airtel will launch 3G?

Posted: 22 Jan 2011 10:02 AM PST

words like COMING SOON has lost its actual sense. they have been telling coming soon from months together. you never know they would launch next week and it would be surprise to us inspite of receiving the mailer from them.. forget coming soon, words like SHORTLY have been used for services which are launched in 2 months time.

i feel petty on these corporate communication chaps! poor english and should learn some!

---------- Post added at 11:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

guys, one more optimistic news , airtel 3G wap portal is by default active for all users without going to special link as was in the earlier case by sending msg and clicking link. definatly 3G launch is within week

Beware- How I got cheated

Posted: 22 Jan 2011 09:55 AM PST

I don't see any so called Vodafone CC who visit this forum replying to this clear case of cheating. Will write a stinker to the Nodal officer but I dont think it will make a difference as they are all thick skinned loyalists.
