Watched this for David Hyde Pierce, and loved it. Much much better than what i expected. Better than American Psycho or maybe not.

Vodafone CC is clueless about my 3G data plan status

Posted: 17 Jun 2012 12:05 PM PDT

Mr Naveen Kumar, manager of Vodafone Store at Cunningham Road, Bangalore did not mail me despite his promises.

No apology from Vodafone for unnecessary harassing sms saying my connection will be disconnected for no fault of mine!

Finally, I confirm that 3G converts to 2G immediately once the 3G plan validity ends! My 7day Rs 40 3G plan ended at 12AM today. Now I can only connect via 2G EDGE. No pay as you go 3G!

Instead this morning I received an sms from vodafone VX-611112 saying "Hello, We have noticed that you have not used your Vodafone number in the last 90 days. Recharge or use now to retain your number and avoid disconnection." But I last recharged on 28th May and have been using my balance for many voice calls per day! Is this a mistake or harrassment!!

Finally, after avoiding for a month, I had to waste an hour at the vodafone store. Fortunately these people were more helpful as mentioned by abchopra2010. They checked that I had indeed made many calls and recharged many times within past 90 days. Mr Naveen Kumar, the manager of the vodafone store at Cunningham Road, Bangalore assured me that he will remove my number from the debarring database by coordinating with back-end people. And he said he will send me an email confirming the same too.

As for 3G, Mr Naveen Kumar said that pay as you go cannot be activated directly. If I take a data plan, 3G pay as you go will remain valid even when the data plan validity expires. However, other store agent said, plan will swtich to 2G immediately when 3G validity expires, and another agent said it will remain on pay as you go as long as you use it but will switch to 2G if you don't use for 7-10 days after 3G plan expiry!! So even store people are not clear about it, forget about customer care who are out-sourced!!

Anyways, finally I have taken a 7 day Rs 40 3G data plan which got activated in 2-3 hours (no sms, you have to check by *111*6# ) and 3G is working. Will post if 3G remains valid after plan's expiry after 7 days.

Moral of the story: Be prepared to spend extra time going and waiting it out at the Vodafone Store if you want anything done!

PS: Mr Naveen Kumar, manager of the Vodafone Store told me that no 3G data plan can be activated by customer care. Only value added services can be activated over phone. Then why did the customer care person Mr B Manjunath, on 31st May 2012 interaction id:334304108, tell me that he will recharge from his end, and money will be deducted from my balance! Indeed, at the vodafone store, I checked that Mr Manjunath has NOT written in his interaction summary that he will recharge from his end, only that he has instructed me how to check my 3G activation and balance!!! Nice con job!

I request vodafoneindia to go through the audio of the interaction id as given above and verify the same. This seems to be generic ploy of CC people to promise the moon, but write something altogether different in their summary!! We have no way of verifying what has actually been done! **I suggest that all customers should get an sms of the interaction summary that the CC people write along with the interaction id for reference.**

Biggest mistake porting into vodafone?

Posted: 17 Jun 2012 11:13 AM PDT

Well, Vodafone activated the SIM on the 15th of June and is now making a fuss about International roaming. Maybe it was a mistake porting, maybe it wasn't. Hopefully 3G and network quality make up for all this bs.

MIUI MiHome Launcher

Posted: 17 Jun 2012 11:00 AM PDT

First time I installed the MIUI rom, I was confused as to where the app drawer was. Only after reading up later on I realised this is based on the iPhone's layout. Having used it for some time now, I don't seem to mind it. It does feel fast
