Why do I have three options to make online transfer of money? Which is a better option? Seriously... Why cannot I make a payment on a Sunday?

If yes then what brand?

Posting a new thread cos off topic is closed.

MTNL seems to have started new 8Mbps plans recently, dint see any thread discussing about it here.

Here is the link http://mtnlmumbai.in/index.php/8mbps-plan

Anybody tried booking these plans.

So, my former ciggie supplier is looking to upgrade to a touchscreen smartphone. His budget is Rs. 7k MAX. He would prefer something around 6k though his top limit is 7k. 

What options can I suggest him?     

Can i find some shop with 5-8 ft dish and DVB-s2 mpeg4 in Goa? May be in Mumbai?

Before Microsoft reached a deal to buy Nokia's phone business, there was a possibility that Nokia could have switched its smartphones to Google's Android operating system sometime after late 2014. A team within Nokia had Android up and running on the company's Lumia handsets well before Microsoft and Nokia began negotiating Microsoft's $7.2 billion acquisition of Nokia's mobile phone and services business, according to two people briefed on the effort who declined to be identified because the project was confidential. Microsoft executives were aware of the existence of the project, these people said.

Okay let me get my point across quickly ..  I currently get 0.85 mbps upload speed with airtel 

What is the highest upload speed I can get on a broadband connection for my residence in Delhi 
                                                              
                                                             OR

Which ISP in Delhi provides the highest Upload Speed for residence connection ?

                                                       OR

If broadband for residence doesn't have high upload speeds is there any other way like a 3G data card or something by which I can get atleast 2-4 mbps upload speed ? 

I am on 850Rupees 10gb 2mbps plan. My monthly usage is around 15-18gb (I do not require more than 2mbps). What I do is once my 10gb is over around 20th of each month, I use SmartBytes at night to get 1hours of 2mbps at 20rupees (gives me around 500mb in 1 hour). This turns out to be 200 rupees for 5 gb extra theoretically.

I want to ask you guys - does it make sense to get a 15gb 2mbps plan sold for 1100rs, or maybe 30gb 2mbps for 1400rs?

PS: SpeedonDemand isnt even working anymore !!

Just a poll to see the ratio of happy and sad customers. 

Flipkart does not seem to have them. Amazon India prices are too high.

In his complaint, Digvijay Singh said the content on the internet has caused "acute mental pain and agony to him, his family members, friends and colleagues. The same is also causing grave damage and injury to the reputation, goodwill and image of the Congress".

I'm an Airtel user (Plan Turbo 15gb). Things are pretty much cool till the FUP is not hit. My place is high on data consumption. The 15gb thingy is exhausted within first 10 days itself (all thanks to 3 laptops and 4 data guzzling smart phones)

I stay in sector 14 Gurgaon and have been searching for another broadband connection lately.

Tikona guy came up and said 'Site not feasible'

You broadband doesnot provide services here

Tata broadband does not provide services in my sector

Hathway didnt respond back

Sify's customer service nos always say our sowrking hours are from 8am to 10pm (even when i call them during day)

Nextra also doesnt provide service in the area

BSNL doesnt have any interesting plan worth looking forward to

Now, Reliance. I had booked a connection with them considering no fup funda and all, paid him throgh a cheque, the installation guy calls me during office hours and says 'connection lagane kab aana hai' and all. I gave him time for a particular day when i was on leave, the guy didnt turn up that day. Again made me rush from office other day and again some of his gyaan baazi. The sales guy has no say in the organisation, and the installation guys work on their own pace. Luckily, i got the cheque stopped when all these dramas started.

I have marked a mail to their higher ups in the organisation a week ago (even Anil Ambani is being CCed) but havent recieved any feedback from them till now.

Now can anyone pleaseeeeeee help me out in getting a broadband connection for my place. Its really super irritating to surf even facebook at downgraded speeds of 256kbps.

The option of moving to higher plan of Airtel is getting a bit costly.

Help and suggestions appreciated by the fellow forum members.  Cheers!!

Release Date: September 20, 2013
Studio: Universal Pictures

Plot Summary:
Two-time Academy Award® winner Ron Howard ("A Beautiful Mind," "Frost/Nixon"), teams once again with fellow two-time Academy Award® nominee, writer Peter Morgan ("Frost/Nixon," "The Queen"), on "Rush," a spectacular big-screen re-creation of the merciless 1970s rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda.

The epic action-drama stars Chris Hemsworth ("The Avengers") as the charismatic Englishman James Hunt and Daniel Brьhl ("Inglourious Basterds") as the disciplined Austrian perfectionist Niki Lauda, whose clashes on the Grand Prix racetrack epitomized the contrast between these two extraordinary characters, a distinction reflected in their private lives.
 

Set against the sexy and glamorous golden age of Formula 1 racing, Rush portrays the exhilarating true story of two of the greatest rivals the world has ever witnessed—handsome English playboy Hunt and his methodical, brilliant opponent, Lauda. Taking us into their personal lives on and off the track, Rush follows the two drivers as they push themselves to the breaking point of physical and psychological endurance, where there is no shortcut to victory and no margin for error. If you make one mistake, you die.

Also starring Olivia Wilde ("TRON: Legacy") and Alexandra Maria Lara ("The Reader"), "Rush" is produced by Andrew Eaton ("A Mighty Heart"), Howard, Academy Award® winner Brian Grazer ("Apollo 13," "A Beautiful Mind"), Eric Fellner ("Senna," "Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy"), Morgan and Brian Oliver ("Black Swan") and executive produced by Cross Creek Pictures, Exclusive Media, Todd Hallowell and Tim Bevan. Universal Pictures will distribute the film in North America.

Nokia today announced the launch of its free music streaming service Nokia Music in the USA. Nokia Music is a free mobile experience exclusive to Nokia Lumia handsets, providing consumers with a simple and delightful way to discover and enjoy music.

Airtel called me today and said since I'd taken Smartbytes for 12gb last month, they wanted to offer 125 fup plan(80gb now) at the same speed(8mbps) for 50rs extra.

I also heard they are giving 3g at 2g rates in my area these days.

Is airtel on a PR improving spree? Anyone got offers like this?

It is amazing that until the lid blew off, not one news channel or major publication thought it was important to cover the UP riots or analyse the tensions which have been simmering for over a year. No one thought it was important to have people on the ground to present a balanced view. When journalists abdicate their responsibility of reporting news, it is a problem. When hysteria and soundbytes replace content, it is a bigger problem. But when news is substituted with selective reporting, unsubstantiated allegations, deliberate misrepresentation, and feigned victimhood, it is a crisis! Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case but a growing and worrying trend.
