Comedy Nights With Kapil

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 11:50 AM PDT

I wonder why there is no thread for this yet!

 

The show is doing wonderfully well. I personally love it. It's different, no cheap comedy and pure entertainment.

 

TRP wise it's doing extremely well. Currently at the top in it's category (even above the likes of KBC, Jhalak Dikhla Ja, etc.) and overall 3rd.


BTW you can watch the full episodes, trailers, etc. here - http://www.youtube.com/user/colorstv/search?query=comedy+nights

Believe me, this show is amazing. You gotta watch this if you don't.

Airtel 3G Online Recharge Problems

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 11:46 AM PDT

What is this with recharge of Airtel 3G online, it never works.

For the past 3 months I have had issues with the 3G recharge, been telling them but of no avail.

Credit card payment never works, if you are lucky, debit card/net banking option works, just like tatkal booking in IRCTC.

I always ping Airtel Presence about this on twitter, always get the standard response "Hi! We have registered your concern and our team will revert to you soon with assistance. Thx"

Today I tried net banking, Bill desk says the transaction is successful, Airtel says it is not :(

Tried recharging it through airtel store, I got 500MB for 250 rupees. Still no resolution by airtel.

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 11:26 AM PDT

Hi,

 

Please suggest me ISPs providing wired broadband connection to Sundar Nagar, Gokula (near Mathikere), Bangalore - 580054.

 

I have tried Airtel, Act, Hathway and they do not have service here. The one I am using now is provided by the local cable operator (he says its from BBNL) and he is overcharging me (₹ 1140/- for 2Mbps unlimited).

 

Thanks.

ACT BB IS FRAUD BB

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 10:50 AM PDT

Hi,
 
I have got a new Act BB connection on 22/08/2013.
 
Acc No :412315
 
I have been clearly told by Marketing executive Mr Ramachandra that my connection is a post-paid and I have confirmed it more than thrice. I have the document which says its a post-paid connection.
 
Now , all of a sudden within 10 days i get to know that ACT has changed my post paid plan to pre-paid and i am asked to pay advance rental for next month.
 
My question here is who has authorised ACT BB to change my plan from POST PAID to PRE-PAID....even if it was done i was never kept informed about it!!!!
 
I have raised several complaints but those never fall to their deaf ears....Nodal Officer Kiran Kumar from Act BB has been as dumb as he can be!!! He called up on a early sunday morning as to y i had posted my complaint!!! Now when i explained him the scenario, he never turned up again!!! 
 
Well Marketing exec Ramachandra is cheating ppl saying false committments and just making them pay money and even many a times connection is not even provided!!!
 
I want to stop this non sense from ACT BB who are spreading like a Virus. Through this forum i want to say dont buy Act bb iF u want to waste ur money ,then pls donate to charity rather than these crap frauds !!!
 

Champions League T20 discussion thread - 2013

Players who qualify for two teams

Quinton de Kock (SA) - Sunrisers Hyderabad/ Highveld Lions
Chris Lynn (Aus) - Sunrisers Hyderabad/ Brisbane Heat
Michael Hussey (Aus) - Chennai Super Kings/ Perth Scorchers
Nathan McCullum (NZ) - Sunrisers Hyderabad/ Otago Volts
Dwayne Bravo (WI) - Chennai Super Kings/ Trinidad & Tobago
Chris Morris (SA) - Chennai Super Kings/ Highveld Lions
Albie Morkel (SA) - Chennai Super Kings/ Titans
Nathan Coulter-Nile (Aus) - Mumbai Indians/ Perth Scorchers
Kieron Pollard (WI) - Mumbai Indians/ Trinidad & Tobago
Samuel Badree (WI) - Rajasthan Royals/ Trinidad & Tobago
Kevon Cooper (WI) - Rajasthan Royals/ Trinidad & Tobago
Brad Hogg (Aus) - Rajasthan Royals/ Perth Scorchers
Kumar Sangakkara (SL) - Sunrisers Hyderabad/ Kandurata Maroons
Nuwan Kulasekara (SL) - Chennai Super Kings/ Kandurata Maroons

 

 

Kumar Sangakkara will have to choose between playing for Kandurata Maroons and Sunrisers Hyderabad in the upcoming Champions League T20 in India, after Sri Lanka Cricket have expressed a strong desire for him to represent Kandurata in the tournament. SLC has gone as far as seeking legal counsel on whether they can ask Sangakkara to play for Kandurata, even if it will effectively cost both Sangakkara and the board significant sums of money if he plays for his local team.

 

Also Malinga has ruled himself out of CL-T20

The general cricket discussion thread

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

Tim Allen is back in the most hotly anticipated comedy of the season. You can't get manlier than Tim. He works for an outdoor sporting goods store, drives a truck, and drinks beer. Unfortunately for Tim, being a guy isn't where it's at anymore. Modern day women are bringing their A-game. They're outperforming men in every area - school, work, and home. Tim is completely secure in his manhood, but he's about to discover that he's got some serious competition.

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 09:47 AM PDT

So after a year and a half on Vodafone, I'm going back to Airtel cause of better network and 3G speeds.

Online streaming is not smooth on Reliance Broadband

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 09:17 AM PDT

Hello,

 

I apologize if this topic is already discussed.

 

Installed reliance broadband 2days back, 2Mbps pack.

 

I get proper speed while torrent download, once i got 10Mbps for a torrent (downloaded a movie-700MB in 34mins.)

 

Youtube works fine. Can watch 480p videos without any issue.

 

But when it comes to online streaming (other than youtube), its not at all smooth. Video keeps stuttering all the time, for all video qualities 240,360,480
I cleaned all cache and all such things needed to be done.

As i have not disconnected my previous internet connection (BSNL 512kbps ) yet, i tried streaming there. Its smooth for 240p.

 

Please help me with this.

 

Is there any software that can help me use the full bandwidth while surfing?

 

Regards.

Kimi Raikkonen joining Ferrari for 2014 Season

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 06:54 AM PDT

http://www.readability.com/articles/mnijz6al

 

 


 

 

"Scuderia Ferrari announces that it has reached an agreement with Kimi Raikkonen. The Finn will join Fernando Alonso in the driver line-up for the next two racing seasons," the statement said.

Massa, championship runner-up to Lewis Hamilton in 2008 before he suffered near-fatal head injuries in Hungary the following year, had already announced on social media that he would not be driving for the Italian team in 2014.

 

 

I hope Kimi kicks Alonso's ass. 

Tata Sky DTH now replacing MPEG2 STBs with MPEG4 STBs for free!

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 06:54 AM PDT

We are replacing close to 5-6 million MPEG-2 SD STBs at no cost to consumers over the next year. All of this is coming in from internal accruals.

 

But you need to wait for one more year to see many new channels

 

 

 

We have been adding channels in a phased manner; the process will now be accelerated with the MPEG-4 STB. By June-July next year we should be able to revise our channel offerings to consumers,

VOD not working through WiFi Netgear Dongle

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 06:37 AM PDT

I've configured my WiFi Netgear Dongle (Netgear WNCE2001) to my WiFi Internet connection. Dongle successfully connects to the WiFi router and I'm able to browse the internet using that. Router is configured with DHCP enabled in PPPoE mode. When I connect to the Tata Sky HD+ STB, the IP connection is showing successful and interestingly it's listing all the available titles under VOD. But if I give any programme for download, it never downloads. It always stuck at 0%. I've tried connecting STB directly to the router using ethernet cable. There is absolutely no issue with downloading and everything works fine. So it cannot be direct issue with the ISP provider. May not be any issue with STB also, since it's downloading when connected directly. As I mentioned before, I tried connecting to internet using the dongle, there is no issue with that browsing. So I'm not suspecting any issue with Dongle able to work with ISP provider.

Can anyone help me point out where else can it go wrong? Am I missing something here??
ISP: ACT broadband
Router: Linksys WRT120N

3rd day without Internet...

Posted: 11 Sep 2013 04:40 AM PDT

ACT,

 

I had raised a complaint (Request No. 0001194416) 3 days back. There is no power to the switchbox and more than 8 customers are without internet for the past 3 days. Everytime I speak to customer care, they say that the urgency of the complaint has been increased, and other bullsh*t. If you guys dont have any plan to fix it soon, please let us know. All 8 of us are going to switch to some other ISP. Speed is important, but customer service is more important...
