    I was earlier on tata indicom, i had no problems with them, other than the cost and package inflexibilities.

    Tata indicom is the worst broadband service provider in india , because every morning their server is down and we need to lodget a complaint at 60607070

  • Venkat says:

    DataOne is good but i only doubt their tech support, how long they take to resolve a prob.

    [Reply]

  • Amit Patel says:

    Dataone is a product of broadband jaint BSNL and they have got a 24 hours problems resolving service, though i never saw any downtime with them since they offer connection via underground fiber connected land line Bphones.

  • Samit Shankar says:

    I’ve been using tata indicom and whilst the service is as per expectations, they recently charged my credit card multiple times and now refuse to credit the amount back. They say they will adjust the amount with my future bills, howeever, that is not acceptable as why did they charge me multiple times in the first place. This is really rediculous and talking to their call centre doesn’t help.

    [Reply]

  • Amit Patel says:

    Samit Shankar – You need to contact the consumer court and credit card issuing company to cancel these payments because thats not correct to over charge a customer.
    Anyway their custom care is the worst one.

  • Krishna Kumar says:

    I had very bad experience with both Tata Indicom and Reliance. Initialy i took a Tata Indicom connection (from the satelite phone) and the phone head set was not working for many months.. They did not do anything about the compliants..

    Now i took another connection with Reliance..(PCMCI Card) and paid 3500 for the card. The person who sold the card gave me a second hand card and even without using the connection, i received a bill of 900 rupees in the first month. After lots of arguments with sonal director in Kerala, they have changed the connection to my name and waived the 900 bill. Now they started adjusting the bill to my account and that is when i stop dealing with them.

    Neither Reliance or Tata does not know the meaning of service.

  • I’ve good experience with BSNL Dataone tough unsatisfied with their support staffs n office. You call support and end up getting a number and need to call that no and so on and at the end they won’t receive calls. Esp. this is prob. with BSNL of state Orissa (bhubaneswar)

    Also underground fiber connection is still unimplemented in many areas. There a little bit rain would disconnect service…….and suck hours..once i was about to loose $$ from a paid review at my site due to this

  • All i can say is AIRTEL is the best broadband available… and better than BSNL and RELIANCE in KARNATAKA… i have used all the three and have married my Internet connection to AIRTEL as they are the best in giving everything I want their service is awesome.. they come to home within 2-3 working hours after my complaint whereas BSNL takes 2-3 days… I recommend AIRTEL in KARNATAKA

  • Sameer says:

    Hi,

    I have heard so many bad reviews/complaints regarding TATA/Vsnl but you will surprised to know that they are providing excellent services in Bhopal city, we have one Tata 512 Kbps and one Airtel 512 Kbps in our office so far no complaints both works fine.

    We are using Tata from April 2007 though have had faced 4-5 downtimes which lasts no longner than 30 minutes.

    I have noted remarkable difference in both connections speed, Tata speed tests always shows between 600-800 Kbps download rate and 550-600 Kbps upload rate while with airtel download is always less than 512 Kbps and upload less then 400 kbps. I believe we are getting good speeds from Tata because of dedicated wireline which only provides DSL Service.

  • pravinpatil says:

    The first mistake u ever make is buy a data card. Be it a reliance netconnect, tata plug 2 surf whiz, or any hell.
    For all those willing 2 have a reliable net connection, there is hardly any option for BSNL broadband.
    -No over-billing
    -Optimum speeds
    -No drop-outs
    -500 plan-total free surfing.
    -Lowest download charges.
    -All together an excellent package.
    -So i suggest, get a BSNL broadband as early as possible.
    Although it may take a while for the connection to be installed but after that u should rarely have any problems,

    i like to inform all of you that…DSL means speed should be 256kbps or more…….but except BSNL DATAONE(speed 256 kbps to 2 mbps) no nobody able to provide this much speed.

    I know there is some problem with BSNL regarding tech supp. but there speed ,billing(No.1 for billing) is best among there comptetors.

  • Amit says:

    From my personal experience in Vizag, BSNL has a huge backlog in installing/activating DSL. They of course accept your application first, without letting you know they don’t currently have enough “ports”, and then have you run-around a long time before mightily doing you the “favor” of finally activating your connection. Avoidable – in favor of the private players, I think.

    Dear Amit,

    I wish to install broadband at home for basic internet use. Say upto Rs. 400 per month.

    Which one’s the best in terms of minimum down-time, value for money, correct (specified speed), No wrong billing & Decent customer support?

    I have a wireless router – so wish to have the cable connected directly to it – so I can save the trouble in case the best option is without modems available.

    Thanks for your guidance.

  • Pradeep Garg says:

    Dear Amit

    My experience is that both BSNL & MTNL broad band services are best. They r consistent in high download speed, cheapest n reliable billing, prompt service on complain. Definately this govt organisation score over private organisations like Reliance, TATA & Airtel and several other.

  • Selva says:

    This forum speaks up the reality… ? Reality may be some time bitter. Because it true!
    Thank you all guys.

    Reliance = the most Unreliable.
    Tata = at any time, it may say “TA, TA Bye. Bye see you later.”
    Both the services are worst to the max. Never ever need to compare with others.

    Here are some trustworthy peoples by rank.
    [Note: In India if you ask for fixed speed Broad Band connection, for example 256Kbps line unlimited download, that cost will be near about Rs24000 per month. People should not expect such a type of connection. If you are expecting such a speed then you must be some were else in the part of world, ? just kidding.]

    1) BSNL and MTNL provide good service only thing some times they cant resolve some hard wire issues. It may take some days to resolve it. But the Tech experts in the Customer care help line provides supports 24 X 7 365 days, it value to money, reliable,

    2) Airtel Broadband (Airtel net-connect and data card are not good. Here we discuss about only Broad Band.)

    3) Hathway Good but expensive

    4) Sify Ok for checking mails, cheep in cost.
