[Resolved]  Sify Broadband Connection — Beware of Sify Broadband Connection

I took a Sify Broadband Connection in early 2006, when I was in BTM Layout, Bangalore. I had to shell out Rs.2000/- as the installation charges and during installation, I was told that if I shift my place from anywhere to anywhere in Bangalore, I would be getting my Sify Broadband Connection by just paying the reinstallation charges ie just Rs.200/-. I was a prompt payer and used to recharge it everymonth for unlimited usage for around Rs.700/-.
In April, 2007, I shifted my house from BTM Layout to JPNagar (which is just 4.5kms from BTM Layout) in Bangalore itself and from then on, till last week, I have been calling up Sify guys for changing the address. They took my new address 12 times and each time, they said that the address is not updated in their database. And each time, I got a new Complaint #. And also, each time they gave new dates for restoration of the broadband connection. Just last to last week, they told me that if I require broadband, then I need to shell out 2000/- again, as the operator is different in JPNagar. Their Customer Care guy was bloody rude. I told him about the promise which was given to me during the installation. He simply smiled and said, if you pay the installation charges, you will get your Sify connection back. I dint understand what to do. I asked how many such Sify operators are there in Bangalore. He said there are 300+ operators. That implies if I shift my house from one area to another area, everytime I have to shell out 2k rupees for this third class service of Sify????
Shame on these guys. Promise and offer something and then do exactly opposite. If this is the way business is done, then they may earn money in short-term. But, long-term wise, they are going to lose everything.

SHAME ON YOU SIFY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And its CUSTOMER CARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sify Broadband — Installation of connection

Dear Sir,

On 15th Nov 08, I have paid Rs.1500 to Sify Broadband agent Mr.Santosh with the promise that they will install internet connection to my residence by next day morning 10:00 am. Next 4 days I kept on trying the mobile number given by them.

Then I have written so many emails & also called customer care many times explaining what had happened. Most of the time they have given promise of solve my problem. Untill 24th Nov night no body shown up to my residence from Sify. After waiting for almost 10 days I have travelled to Afghanistan to resume my job. On 25th I got email from Sify saying that they are waiting for my society permission letter for entering in our premises. No one from Sify contacted me for this letter before. Immediately I have arranged letter through my wife from our society.

Till date (12-Jan-09 almost two months from payment date) no body has shown up to my residence for the connection. In due couse I have written so many emails to their customer care & now even customer care is not responding my emails.

Very recently I have requested them to refund my payment & cancel my application of internet connection. I am still waiting updates from Sify on this.

I seek your advice & help in this matter. I will be travelling back to India in Feb-09.

Thanks & Regards
Pramod Mane
