[Resolved]  Hathway — Hathway Cheats

I booked a prepaid internet connection on 6th April, 2008 and gave a PDC. I was assured that my connection will start in a day or two after which my cheque would be submitted. However, today is 23rd May, till date I haven't got the connection, they have encashed my cheque of 618/-. I must have called each and every number by now but the result is zero. Guys don't take HATHWAY. They are cheaters, rather go for MTNL. I was simple taken by the offer of 2GB for 618 Rupees instead of 1199 that I pay for MTNL.

As they say "SASTA ROYE BAAR BAAR". Ultimately I have spent 1200 on Hathway but not got a single KB as compared to 1199 for 2GB by MTNL.

I filed a complaint at core, not for any resolution, just to increase one more count of "HATHWAY SUCKS". It is really irritating, forget the money but the time that I have spent calling them everyday. I take this opportunity to thank Mr.Giriraj Singh who wrote an email to hathway. However, I guess that hathway email id does not exist and I don't even expect anything, just want to make sure that others who are searching for "hathway" or "hathway sucks" before buying a connection can find this. Wish I had done it :(

To be fair with Hathway, here is an update.

Finally somebody came to my house for modem testing today from Hathway. He checked and found it is fine and said somebody will come and fix a new modem within half an hour. Hope this half an hour is not the same as two days which was equal to almost two months.

I really hope that it comes and I can say "HATHWAY KE GHAR DER HAIN ANDHER NAHI HAIN". If that is true, then I owe a "partial apology" to the RAJAN RAHEJA GROUP for increasing the count for HATHWAY SUCKS on the internet.
hello guys,
i paid rupees 450 in month of september 7, the connection started from 10th .
initially i was happy, thought i got the chepest & best connection, but after 2 days it not worked properly.
it is working only 2 hour in a day & either it shows "Request Time out"
i called to customer care twice or thrice in a day, but not getting satisfactory results.
i will not suggest to anybody for hathway.never

Subject: Despite repeated complaints to your staff, slow browsing speed problem persists for almost a year


Respected Mr Rajan Rajanji,

After being exasperated, having continuously complained to your staff at Hathway Broadband Internet, to no avail, I had sent you a letter on September 19, 2008, about two months ago.

Sir, this is just to inform you that though the frequent line disconnections of my internet connection have stopped, the problem of very slow browsing speed still persists.

Once again, sadly I have to write to you to please kindly ask your staff to provide good quality service sir.

I hope you will help this aggrieved customer.

Sincerely,
Dale Bhagwagar
Hathway Internet is just not bothered to improve its services. just like a typical laidback aalsi government employee. actually worse that him. at least he takes bribes and gets on with the job. hathway guys dont even pick up the phones fr complaints.

Probably, the worst internet service in India.
