[Resolved] Reliance Communications — Speeds Worse than 2G on a UNLIMITED 3G Plan | |||
I paid 1298/- for 28 days of what is advertised by Reliance as "Full Speed Unlimited 3G" plan. Why, then, do I often get speeds as pathetic as 5-10 kbps for long stretches ? It happens sometimes even late in the evening and at night. This is not acceptable since the only reason I paid such a high price was to satisfy bandwidth demands for work. Time lost suffering abysmal speeds is, in effect, lost money. If Reliance can't deliver the service promised. they should give people their money back.

Well, at long last, I got a call from Reliance and Mr Sanjay informed me that the validity of my plan had been extended to compensate for the days of lost connectivity. It is very frustrating to waste time and money over such issues but I want to thank Relaince for ultimately doing the right thing. Despite initial disappointment, it seems like reasonable and fair people still exist at Reliance. So, thank you again and I hope I don't have to face these problems in future.

Mr Vijay said that it made sense to extend validity since I had paid for an expensive plan and that I should contact customer care for the same. Despite that assurance, I then got a call from another individual named Sanjay who said that an extension isn't done unless there is no connectivity. I explained to him that the connection I had from 7th until 13th of September ( 7 days ) offered average speeds of 10 kbps. It was riddled with DNS server issues that made even browsing impossible most of the time. How can Reliance consider that a fair treatment of a customer who paid for a much better service ?
Please not that I only bought the plan after several SMS messages from Reliance informing me of its existence. Not providing the service assured as advertised would be tantamount to fraud.I have been extremely frustrated and have had to contend with losses on the business front because of network speed issues on your end. Having been a Reliance customer for a long time, I expected better treatment. If you think that the 7 days of 2G connectivity is something extra that I received, even though I didn't ask for such abysmal service, then please go ahead and charge me for 7 days of 2G connection. But I want what was promised to me while buying the plan. i.e 28 days of an unlimited 3G connection with no throttling. Not 21 but 28 days. That can only be done by extending validity beyond 25th by 7 days.
Mr Sanjay finally said that he'd discuss the issue and get back to me. A new service request number,[protected], was given to me. Please see to it that the issue is resolved. Thanks
