Called up Tikona's call center a couple of days ago. I wanted to find out their tariffs.
This is how the talk between the Representative and me go.
Me: Hi, I'm looking for a high speed unlimited plan would you suggest something ?

Tikona Representative: We have unlimited 300 kbps for 599 and unlimited 600 kbps for Rs. 799.

Me (Interested): Nice .. i like the 600 kbps plan , do you have any other similar plans ..

Tikona Representative: Sir we also have Double speed plans .. you get Night time double speeds in those.

Me: Tell me more.

Tikona Representative: Sir, Day time 300 Kbps , night time 600 kbps , for Rs. 899.
Me: Wait a minute , Are you sure.

Tikona Representative: Yes sir.

Me: You said 600kbps UL for 799 .. and 300Kbps Day+600Kbps night UL for 899 .. why's that..

Tikona Representative: Sir , you're getting double speeds at night ..
Me: Double for 600kbps?

Tikona Representative : Sir Double of 300.

Me: Confused, : But why would anyone pay for this plan , when I can get 600 Kbps all day and night long for a 100 Rupees less.

Tikona Representative: Sir, But you don't understand , You're getting double the speed during night time !

Me: Double of 600kbps?

Tikona Representative: Sir Double of 300.

me Frustrated : * hit my head repeatedly on the phone and Hang up !

Hahahaha.....i am laughing my heads off here.

First of all....i had seen this plan a long time ago but never bothered discussing it since i knew this was a <***> Special plan :rofl:

But i really liked how you have represented your convo with the representative.

Still laughing my heads off..... :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
 
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I too noticed this long back. What happened here is that 300-600 kbps plan was the old one and the 600kbps FUL came after a few months. They must have reduced the price on the old plan or discontinued it altogether, which they didn't and hence the confusion. :bleh:
 
Tikona's the shit. I was in their office last week and they let me click a few photos :

I hate this kind of fcking noob CC representatives.....:@
These kind of fools are every where and they will make ur life miserable.....:huh:
 
Did you guy's ever consider that there may be some fine print for the FUL plans as compared to the UL plans. I can see FUL, UL and FMC plans all listed as Unlimited plans, but the FMC plans have a monthly usage limit as mentioned in the fine print. FUL plans too must have some catch because of which they are cheaper. For example a quick look at the T&C section shows that the FUL plans have the worst contention ratios of all the plans listed. There many be other limitations as well.
 
GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!
The difference is in the Contention ratio :)
Again if you see there are two plans of 1mbps which cost 1399. (FUL1399 & XFul1399)
But the installation for XFUL1399 is Rs800 and the contention ratio is 1:8
where as for the home users 1399 plan the speed is same but installation is Rs500 and contention ratio is 1:40 :) (both unlimited)
The CC told me even that 1:40 is faster than 1:8 and then I had to explain him the concept of Contention ratio :D

But a lesson to learn to all SalesMen and CC guys. Knowing the product very well will help them better to screw the customer. not the other way :)

Yesterday the salesman in Sony World told me that full HD model is better coz it has 5Mega Pixel screen as compared to 1MP of non HD tv...
I could not help laughing but also felt like banging my head on the "5MP LCD"

EDIT: The link above is the oldest one.
Now they have revamped their site and removed the double speed plans.
