[Resolved] Telecom Regulatory Authority Of India — Fair usage policy on unlimited internet usage plans | |
Dear Sir, Until recently there was no limit to which a person could download using an Internet Connection labeled as an Unlimited Plan or a UL plan, but recently TRAI has approved the ISP's to put a cap on the usage o[censored]nlimited download users, this is called Fair Usage Policy (hence forth abbreviated as FUP) on unlimited plans. I believe the users are at a loss as only the heavy users are opting for the unlimited plans and the Internet Service Providers (ISP) are charging accordingly but are not delivering as they have FUP as an excuse. I have 2 points. 1.If the user the user is paying for the unlimited plan then why can he not have the liberty of the unlimited download? this is clearly cheating on the ISP's part as they cannot decide how much download is enough for a user ! and the FUP are fairly low for most of the ISPs. The users must have the entire right to download as much they want when they are paying for the unlimited plans. 2.If there is a surge in the usage o[censored]nlimited plans which resulted in the ISP's capability to deliver the product they promised hence resorted to Fair Usage Policy, then why are the ISPs not improving their infrastructure to handle the extra load or change the tarrif plans so that users are in the control of how much they want . FUP is essentially making the word unlimited download a lie and this policy must be abolished. I sincerely hope that the consumer forum will take action action against this treacherous policy. Was this information helpful? | |

Vodafone — Providing unwanted services and charging hefty
I had not asked to renew Caller Tune services. You had given me it for 90 days. So why you renewed it and charged me. As per TRAI guidelines you can not provide any VAS services without my explicit consent.Also, giving Caller Tune on pressing # while talking is also highly unethical. Pls. stop this, as in this case also there is not explicit consent of the customer.

arihant computer — std outgoing call
me cell phone to not outgoing std call i calling time call dissconet so my mobile no.[protected] i complent from 12 jan 2009 mor. 9.am my complent no.[protected] I very much agree to this. If ISP is not in a position to deliver what he has commited he should upgrade his infrastructure. Also the user must be able to the see the USAGE Details for the UNLIMITED Plans also.
Also ISP should change the name of the plans from UNLIMITED to Volume Based plan.

dear sir,my mobile is closed old planing . I do not get same possiblities. my mobile is disconnected .
and reached high pay . please changing connection. my mobile was 10 paise . now my mobile call reached 1rupee at least . please planing change karo.
This is open cheating. While providing the connection they didn't mention anything about the limit on unlimited plans.
How crazy does it sound? UNLIMITED PLAN but with limits.
I don't understand. Don't these people know what unlimited means.
i[censored] have limits then why do u say its unlimited?
A serious action should be taken and quickly.
when we are seeing development in the broadband technologies what is this new rule of limiting the speeds.
I don't think this is rule of trai and if it is it should be changed immediately.

I have a mobile prepaid connection NO:[protected] from RCOM. RCOM is activating various packages on its own and deducting money from my prepaid account. On complain they are also not ready to refund the money which they have suo-moto deducted by themselves. I want to ask why prepaid customers are being cheated this way by Reliance Communication. Today also Rs. 30 has been deducted from my account on account of renewal of one ASTRO PACK. which I had not asked for. Can somebody stop RCOM from this highhandedness.
I have Vodaphone conncection and getting a lot of promotional SMS on my mobile. I had requested vodaphone to stop such SMS but instead of reducing number of SMS, now it increase.
kindly look in to,

This is a Comment regarding poor service of AIRCEL Company. I made a booking for a connection on 3rd Feb. ([protected]) this is my no. booking was done for a postpaid connection. After making the connection the employee of your company said your connection will get started I within 48 hours & instead of that he took 500 Rs. from me as a security & ID proof. But the connection is still not activated. I went to the Kamla nager Aircel office, they ask me to submit a receipt photo copy & I have submitted. They made me assure that they will themselves consult with the department for this problem. After this there is no response from AIRCEL. Then I made a complaint Via E-mail, in between that time I had a talk with customer care (he said they don’t have data regarding this problem) that means my complaint is still not posted. (then I received a call ), he said he’s going to sort out my problem within 48 hours and gave his number .After 2 days I called him & told him about the same, “that person replied I only handle the prepaid connection”. Now today is 13th Feb. It’s been ten days long, and you are not replying for the complaints. What the Bluddy treatment you guys are giving to your customers.
As a telecom company, a new brand in INDIA don’t knows how to do their work and provide customer satisfaction, ” then you are going to lead in this field???” I suggest you stop doing all your work, forget your targets .
THANKING YOU
