Airtel data cards are made to fool people and make money from them

Airtel made DATA CARDS only to fool the public and make money from them. I am using airtel data card from past 1 year, it worked well for 6 months now the only speed which comes is 2kb to 3kb in a 144kbps connection. Not even a site or messenger can be opened. They only know how to make money and not even rectify the problem after listening to customers. Its a great business by airtel to make money from customers....
