MTNL stops offering new Dolphin connections

August 30, 2007 By yogen 1 Comment

Dolphin

 

Here’s some bad news for all considering to take Dolphin connections. Government owned telecom firm MTNL has stopped offering new mobile connections for Dolphin in the city. Sources suggest that MTNL has already stopped advertising for its cellular services Dolphin.

Is it a new tactic by government to create a deliberate scarcity or something else? However, MTNL officials defend their stand by saying that their equipment supplier, ITI (another PSU) has failed to expand capacity and meet the handset demands. ITI has a technical tie-up with French vendor Alcatel and was given an order to expand its manufacturing capacities more than a year ago but has failed to supply MTNL with the necessary number of handsets.

Ironically, there is no such problem in the Delhi circuit as the supplier for Delhi, Motorola has the required production capacity and MTNL can give new connections as much as demand is there.

If a child makes a mistake, it’s the duty of his mother to discipline the child. It is the same case with TRAI and Airtel where Airtel is the spoilt child. TRAI has asked Airtel to remove its short code numbers which Airtel uses to promote for its Value Added Services (VAS). According to TRAI, Airtel has violated TRAI regulations of national numbering plan which is given to every service provider.

Within a week, Airtel has to comply with the plan and discontinue services like Marathi Mobile Radio?, Ringtone Genie etc. in Maharashtra and Goa circle. That’s not enough. Other services like Voice Chat in Bihar, Airtel FM in UP and other services in different parts of the country will also have to be discontinued.

How telecom service providers push for postpaid connections?

August 25, 2007 By Kunal Gangar 7 Comments

Hutch Logo

 

I happened to visit a local Hutch Gallery Shop to convert my postpaid connection to a prepaid one. The scheme which I was currently on was a good one, but one of the major reasons for changing into prepaid was that it was difficult for me to keep a tab on my callings and I ultimately ended up paying more. As I waited for my turn to come, one of the executives approached me and asked that “Why do I want to convert it to prepaid?” Determined to go prepaid I explained him my plight. He listened to me attentively and replied back that if he could show me another scheme?

Reluctantly, I obliged and here I am, still going on with my postpaid connection. The scheme given to me was from a Corporate Plan (only companies are given these plans).

Check out the tariffs after the break:

Bill Plan Comparison: 199 Full Value

August 23, 2007 By yogen 1 Comment

Now that u have seen our earlier posts, here’s another new category where in we review similar plans of different operators. The first plan under our scanner is the Rs. 199 post paid plan. To review the same we have an easy to understand and compare chart of the plan offered by the service providers. If your monthly usage is around 150 to 200 minutes then the 199 plan is the most suitable for you under any service provider. You can expect your bill to be anywhere between 300 and 400 (including tax) depending upon your usage. So here’s a detailed overview of these plans, hope it helps you to choose the best one. (We did not include BPL because it does not have a 199 Plan.)
