Tata Docomo .. !! Not again !!

On a mobile which my brother purchased, there was a free tata docomo number given, and I continued to use the number even when I came back from Singapore.

Once I was back in Bangalore, I gave the docomo number to my Singapore Bank, as my Internet Banking contact detail. So the confirmation message would come to this number.

It was one of the biggest blunder I have ever done. When I tried to transfer my remaining money back to India, what all I got was an incomplete message. I could not complete a banking transaction with an incomplete message. I called up the bank's call center and they told me its the mistake of service provider.

I should never have trusted Tata Docomo, for crucial banking related things. I raised a complaint with tata docomo guys, they told me it will be resolved within 2 days. But simultaneously, I used a bit of my head (brain I mean) and got my Singapore bank contact number to AIRTEL (alternate number)..

And believe me I could do bank transaction with AIRTEL, almost instantly. I got a free flawless message on airtel (right from start), where as on docomo the main characters itself were missing (incomplete text).

So now even after 3 days, I have done many transactions, but still TATA docomo has not got back to me with a solution to the problem.

All they say is the problem is on the side of the Singapore Bank.

What a pathetic set of losers man.. !!!

Will never trust anything which is of brand Tata again .. for sure..

Thanks Bharti Airtel. .you sure provide a gem of quality service.

Cheers,

First post in the new year

Happy new year 2012.

I haven't taken to writing posts over here for quite sometime now. Its just that, I am preoccupied with some or the other work over the last couple of months, including those days I had not opted for company transportation, I was busy travelling by BMTC bus. And laziness as usual made me take writing not so seriously.

Apart from this, I am writing whatever comes to my mind, in a 400 page notebook. I had thought of writing it on a day to day basis, but again, I do not have that much determination. But do manage to update it once in 5 days atleast.

So all over the last month and this month, I have been reading, the book "Shantaram" by Gregory Anthony Roberts. I am surprised, over 1 month 10 days, I have been able to read 670 pages of the book. Still 260 pages pending.

I need to finish it ASAP, so that I can start reading 59 Seconds, which I have abruptly stopped, once I started reading Shantaram.

I had been on a roadtrip to Goa, Karwar, in the last week of December. A one which can be as memorable as it can get. Will put up a travelogue sometime soon.


Cheers,
