Does any bank allow customers under 18 to open a bank account under their own name?

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 12:32 PM PDT

I know many banks have services for customers under 18, but those accounts are opened only on parent's permission, and their accounts are linked to their parent's account, and is not an individual account. My friend is under 18 and wants to open an Individual account. HDFC banks and other banks have limitations for Under 18 accounts like maximum withdrawal limit i.e 2500 Rs per day, and no net banking. Please let me know if there is any bank which allows under 18 people to open an individual bank account

How to disconnect my Airtel prepaid?

Started getting D2H cinema today, am not subscribed to it

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 11:09 AM PDT

I took Videocon d2h connection in January and at that time I got complementary d2h cinema for 2 months and then disappeared.
But today I started getting it back when I never subscribed to it. What may be the reason ?

Should I switch from Airtel to Docomo?

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 11:06 AM PDT

Hi,

I saw the broadband plans offered by DOCOMO and they seemed really good. Currently I have Airtel 4 Mbps and I am paying 1799 per month. ( Great connection & customer service )

I wanted to take the 16 Mbps plan offered by Docomo at 1600 with a FUP limit of 80 gb. I want to ask the users in this forum . Is it worth the switch?

What do I do with my internet?

1.  I download upto 50-60 gb a month.

2. I browse the net for atleast 4-5 hours a day .

3. I have a part time job that requires a lot of uploading and so I need to be online a lot.

4. I play a lot of online games during the weekends

So overall Airtel 4 Mbps Vs Docomo 16 Mbps. Which should I choose?

I want to buy a printer for home. My usage is mostly photocopying and little printing. I currently use a HP printer that has seen better days.
My needs are:

-Printer, Scanner, Copier

-Only A4 printing, colour and B/W both. No photo printing.
 

Optional(depends on the price):
-Wireless printing from phone and laptop.
-Touchscreen

 

 

I'm open to buying HP and Canon. After sales must be good(I'm happy with the HP one). 

I saw these:http://www8.hp.com/in/en/products/printers/index.html?facet=Home-and-home-office#!view=column&page=1&facet=Home-and-home-office%7C%7CWireless
 

What do you suggest? And what about canon?

Frustrated with Frequent Disconnections despite repeated complaints

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 08:36 AM PDT

Hello guys, i'm facing a lot of disconnections on MTNL Triband Mumbai.
I get 2 type of disconnections, i'll try to explain it.
Please see the following screenshot :
BsjAvIn.jpg

The 1st disconnection (the 3 consecutive 'Not Connected') is the disconnection that happens when the ADSL link drops and the internet reconnects after 1 minute or so. The IP address changes.

The 2nd and 3rd disconnections are the weird quick disconnections where internet loses connectivity for about 20 seconds and then regains connectivity. The IP address does not change.

I stay very far from MTNL exchange and my line stats are terrible. See below :
 

                  G.DMT
WVSjnwO.jpg

 

                    ADSL2+
yvEMoFV.jpg
 

 

Router : TP-Link TD-W8951ND (ADSL+Wifi)

Enabling/Disabling Router Firewall and Kaspersky Firewall makes no difference.

G.Dmt doesn't help either.
I face this same issue on my other router D-Link DSL 2520U as well.
I have also tried 4 splitters and even changed the wall socket (small white box) myself.

I had complained multiple times and the lineman came twice and did something.
But still no difference in the line stats and the problem is at it is.
I was previously on Xpress_UL_1000 plan, but now i've switched to DSL_UL_999 hoping that changing plan would somehow solve my problem but it didn't.

 

Because of the disconnections i cannot play games online and the overall internet experience is terrible.
I am very frustrated.

How the hell do i solve this issue?

Please help.

How to setup wireless on BBNL?

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 08:11 AM PDT

Hi all,

 

I just got a connection from BBNL.

 

When I asked the person who installed the connection about wireless, he said that they dont provide modems/routers and that I would have to buy a router and configure it myself.

 

I even got a new router, called the person at the office and asked him to tell me how to configure. He said he reset the MAC binding and that I can set it up as PPPoE in the router.

 

I tried that, but it does not connect in the router.

 

Has anyone setup wirelesson a BBNL connection here? Can anyone tell me if I'm missing something?

Apple iPhone 5s

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 08:01 AM PDT

The much-rumored iPhone 5S and a 5-inch iPhone 6 have shown up at an Apple supplier in China, according to a post on a Chinese microblogging site.
The models could be released this year, according to a post by a Sina Tech user called Old Yao. He reports that a friend of his at a supplier has seen the models and says that the iPhone 5S resembles the iPhone 5, while the iPhone 6 is wider, longer, and thinner.

Frequent Disconnection / ADSL blinking Issue on MTNL Broadband

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 07:55 AM PDT

Hi,

I am a user of 849NU plan of MTNL Triband service since August based out of Navi Mumbai.

All of August, i was very happy to have a lovely connection and good speeds, with a pretty good tariff.
But now since the past 15 days I am suffering from very intermittent net connection.
Although I am connected to the internet, sometimes the webpages take ages to open, and never open, while at other times it opens instantly. Also downloading has the same pattern, sometimes I get very good speeds of upto 200 Kbps, while other times there is no download. Although all download sites show good Triband Speed, but it is the intermittent connection that is the problem.
This problem has crept up in the last 15 odd days, and I have tried everything but no change has been noticed.

Has anyone else faced a similar problem, and if yes, whats the work around. The people at MTNL classify this as a slow connection problem, but that is exactly not the issue, as I do get good speeds intermittently.

Somebody please help me.

Tikona WiBro Services - Dont Ever go for it

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 07:47 AM PDT

This is a complaint about Tikona Wireless Broadband and see how much frustration a customer would have in selecting this useless service,

1)Jul-2012 i took the Tikona Wireless Brodaband connection for 1mbps speed.
2)They did not even get my address proof for the connection. with this itself i should have understood their quality
3)After that the speed frequently gets down and i had raised so many complaints and many times i did not even have a connection for almost 10 days. For these 10 days they say they will adjust the bill but for an minimal amount.
4)Customer care is another nuisance they dont understand the issue is and they will immediately test our connectivity when server which my modem connects is down and we have to wait for this guys 1/2 an hour as if they are going to solve the issue
5)After we raise a complaint they will assign what they call as Engineers who will never come immediately the customer has to follow him after taking leave from office as if they are going to launch a rocket
6)So called Engineer visits our site and he will adjust the direction of the equipment in the upstairs and he will check the conection and say everything allright, immediately after he leaves the connection will be slow or even down.
7)We have to pay nearly 3000 for 3 months so the reason is after the payment their connection is secured meaning we will not be able to disconnect for 3 months.
8)They will install their CPE, the reason for this installation free of cost is to black mail the customer when they ask for disconnection.
9)first 3 months i paid i.e, from Jul - Sep 2012. Many complaints and i felt they will correct themselves and paid the second due from Oct - Dec 2012. same result. I called the customer care and made a complaint many times,

they some how convinced me saying it will never  happen again.Then i paid my third due from Jan - Mar 2012. same story. i did not disconnect because i thought i will be changing my house so it will be better if i raise a disconnection thinking that they will disconnect immediately since it is wireless. In April 2013, there was no stable connection, called the Customer Care and made a complaint. As usual the so called Engineer  did not turn up and i got frustrated i raised a request for disconnection. After the request is raised the Engineer called me for fixing the issue. I told i disconnected and not needed your service. The next day a guy from Mumbai called me and he spoke in my language(for convincing) and convinced me and promised me it will never happen. I did not have a connection for 10 days again.I was not able to disconnect also because i paid the amount for Apr - Jun 2013

 

mail sent on Apr 6, 2013 for disconnection,
===============================================================================================================================================================================================
Hi,

I had disconnected my Tikona WI-BRO service on 05-Apr-2013 and i had raised a complaint to the customer care for the same.
My Customer Id is 1106902159
Name: Vijay
Please do not generate bill anymore.

thanks,
Vijay.
===============================================================================================================================================================================================
10)After that also the connection was not stable, it was like if it type mail.yahoo.com, enter my username , password and submit bOOOOOOOOh.   it disconnects.  Pay my credit card and after entering all the details final step

Boooooooooooooooooh. disconnected. it did not even know whether the payment is made.
11)They have crossed the limits and waited for the end of june so that the end of bill date arrives.

Chapter 2 The WORST

1)I had raised a disconnection request again on 23-jun-2013 before 4 days of bill end date(26-jun-2013).This 4 days + 30(or even more) = 36 days i did not claim anything, instead i want this Ghost out of my Home.
see the mail they had sent immediately,

Hi,

Reg. my Account No. 118420867, User ID 1106902159.
Please refer my below mail reg. collecting your installed equipments.

I had been calling your ISP co-ordinator many times for collecting the equipments but nobody turned up.
I am not going to call anymore your technician for collecting the equipments.
Do you guys think i don't have any other work apart from calling your technician.
To collect your equipments ask your person to fix an appointment with me and collect it.

I had sent a mail asking you guys to collect the equipments on the below dates,
24-jun-2013
29-jun-2103
14-jul-2013
17-jul-2013

But you are not responsible enough to collect the same.
I will not be responsible anymore for damage/delay of your equipments installed in my premises
Moreover i am going to vacate my house shortly which i had already informed you.

thanks,
Vijay.
===============================================================================================================================================================================================

On seeing this you can see that they are sending the same mails repeatedly for a month for no reasons making the Customer uncomfortable.

a)They are forcing me to call a guy or a fool whom they outsourced for collecting the equipments. Why should a customer call a guy who will not turn up, even then i did. This is the worst thing making the customer to call a

unknown fool to take the equipments.
b)They sent a mail before saying no dues paid, now they are saying the amount is to be calculated actaully this guys have to refund me for the non-usage period.
c)They are taking more than 1 month for disconnection but for connection they will take 2 hrs without address proof..
d)They send a mail to the customer blackmailing that equipments is not collected need to pay 1500.

 

As per their mail,

The activities are summarized against your Service Request Number 1-2712199844, dated : 6/23/2013 09:42:29 AM

1) Resolution of issues or problem with your cooperation            : Day 1 to Day 10

2) Formal email or call from your Registered Email or Mobile No.  : Day 1 to Day 10

3) Suspension of account (last bill cycle)                                      : Day 11 to Day 13

4) Payment of outstanding and return of equipments                  : Day 14 to Day 16

5) Closure of account                                  : Once activity 4 is completed then within 48hrs account will be closed.

from 23/06/2013 + 16 days = 10-jul-2013 the equipments shouls have been collected, they will not collect the equipments and will send mails irritating the customer.
The reason for disconnection is i am travelling onsite. What nonsense is the point 1, they will take 10 days to resolve my problem. They should immediately disconnect.

These guys are giving the worst service that any telecom company will give and if we disconnect they will call all nuisance.

Apart from these i made so many calls to the Customer Care to the toll-free which is not easily reachable and many times to their chargeable number in Mumbai
i lost my amount paid to them
i lost many banking transactions because of the worst service they had provided
i am totally stressed by these guys for which I am filing a case for compensation..

Yes Bank User Experience

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 04:32 AM PDT

As part of the process of shutting down my account in Standard Chartered, I am applying for a new savings account in Yes Bank.

One of the primary reason is the 7% interest they give on savings accounts. Apart from that, I have little idea.

Wanted to hear about user experiences about their offline and online services and of course about any hidden charges.

DLink DSL-2520u Firmware update in Crash Recovery Mode.

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 03:43 AM PDT

Hi All,

I am going to explain how to update firmware for crashed, corrupted mode for Dlink Modem below:-

I have purchased DSL-2520u having DDNS Feature in mind, but i was sad (human tendency) when i couldn't see such features.

Post Purchase fig:
Board ID: DSL-2520U
Software Version: IM_1.00
Software Date: Jun 11 2010
Bootloader (CFE) Version: before 1.0.37-5.12
H/W Version : T1.
Manufactured in May 2012.


Day1
I tried all forums and DLink for updated Firmware. After Several calls to Dlink (Thanks for their waiting time on IVRS) said they have latest firmware which include DDNS and additional Security features. I was so happy to hear that. They even sent me Firmware via email.

I have tried upgraded with given firmware via web gui/TFTP [Update Software] and it was failing with err: Fatal error during image uploading. .It was bit frustrating.

Day2.
I called DLink again in morning . They resent same firmware hinking that last image is not good. I retried and again same err :(
Again i called Dlink[20 mins wait every time on fone] , One of Exec said, if it's not upgrading this way then i will have to corrupt Firmware intentionally. He told me process as well on phone.

HOW TO ?

1. Connect your modem to PC/Laptop using ethernet cable.
2. Assign Static Ip to PC/Laptop to avoid issue later. (It took 2 hrs for me to fig out , Dlink din't tell me about this)
IP 192.168.1.2, SM, 255.255.255.0, DG ,192.168.1.1
3. Download Firmware in C:/Firmware [Sent by Dlink]
4. Check if you can browse 192.168.1.1 [Going fwd :- WEB GUI]
5. Take configuration Back up of modem into your PC/Laptop to reduce reconfiguration. Managament >> Settings >> Backup
6. Now, take a paper clip - Press Reset button for 1 Min at rear side, every 10-15 secs , Please unplug and replug power cords into. Modem will restart itself and u will see only Strong Constant Red Light & Etherenet port light if connected. This mode is called Crash Recovery Mode. if power light turns into green and you are able to see normal reset , then repeat this step again.
7. Now try browsing 192.168.1.1 with default user/passwd.
8. If u see Quick setup page , then repeat Step 6 else step 9.
9. If you see message saying that welcome to upgrade page and you see one browse path and Update button.
a) Pl select path for firmware
B) Please submit update button.
10. It will take 2 mins to flash new firmware.
11. You will see DDNS & extra sec features.

Post Firmware Upgrade
Board ID: DSL-2500U
Software Version: ME_1.00
Software Date: May 24 2011
Bootloader (CFE) Version: before 1.0.37-5.12

Cheers.

This process should be followed only when normal updates are not working or firmware are corrupted or crashed. and you see constant Red light on box and not turning into green.

I am newbie so can't upload link.
Cheers.

MTNL Broadband VDSL2 User Experiences

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 02:20 AM PDT

I wanted to start a new experience thread simply to discuss MTNL VDSL.

Some things to consider before/after taking a new VDSL connection

 

SNR margins (SNRM)
Below 9 dB : Poor experience with lots of HEC and CRC errors. Line will disconnect frequently.
9   - 11  dB : Ok but not ideal. Disconnections will be there if some unexpected variance is introduced by rains, humidity in the wire.
12 - 16  dB : Ideal and realistic value. Expect almost no disconnections as the line has more wiggle room for tolerating variances.
17 dB and up : God Mode. Lucky few get this on VDSL synced at 30 mbps and up. So far I have seen various stats and no one has reported this SNRM (That is because VDSL sync rates are always higher)

 

Higher you sync rate, lower the SNRM will be. Lower the SNRM, lower the connection reliability. Lower reliability means frequent disconnections. Hence ISP's have a setting in DSLAM to artificially increase SNRM value for a particular phone line. Hence you sync at lower rate and line automagically becomes stable.

 

Attenuation may not be that important after all. It reduces sync speeds over a distance but is not an indicator of connection reliability. (You can roughly calculate your line length from it. Do it here)

Apply for VDSL connection only if you are within half km. Otherwise you will get ADSL like sync rates.

I will update this entry with some of our findings. Since VDSL is somewhat new to India, this thread can help some early adopters.

 

Currently the speeds are decent for fast servers. But single streams are slow due to a bottleneck somewhere.

the govts plans to have a biometric national id cards for everyone by 2010.In usa the real id act is facing fierce resistance as 20 states have signed legislation opposition this as well in UK as groups like defyid and no2id.THis national id card makes india a police state,mass surveillance society and blurs the difference btw nazi germany and india.
the supreme court has interpreted that we have the right to privacy which the national id card violates.Why isnt anyone doing to stop this.I contacted times of india ,cnn ibn,ndtv but got no reply?.


we already have voter id card,passport,driver license,ration card,pan card(similar to social security card in us.).EVen is usa the ss card is not to be used as a id card.why do we need a chip card?the only thing that i can think is abut control and monitoring us.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipurpose_National_Identity_Card_(India)
once everyone has this card the govt can track your every move and switch your card if you resist or dissent.

those who give up liberty for security neither deserve liberty nor security-Benjamin Franklin.

the cons of having a national id card

Broadband suggestion for Raipur Chhattisgarh

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 12:27 AM PDT

I used to live in Lakhe Nagar in Raipur but recently shifted to Changorabhata. I was using Airtel in Lakhe Nagar but now it is not available here. Applied for BSNL but they kept saying there is problem, even I was willing to give extra cash to lineman but they didnt gave connection. Called Tikona, their installer checked and said signal is weak (8 dB was available while minimum is 20 dB). Now can anyone please tell me how is the service of bsnl evdo and wimax in Raipur specially in Changorabhata. I applied online for evdo, they called and I asked for demo but he said demo is not available. Does anyone knows about signal of evdo or wimax in raipur. Please reply as soon as possible.
