gattaca Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 After seeing couple of posts I feel southern states in india have better internet speeds than nothern may be because of the it sector. My town is not even that big I get better speeds than most posters in northern cities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sscomp32 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 :(( hope your city gets better infrastructure soon. Infrastructure is there but Cost is too much.

Other northern states are probably behind in this internet speed race So is Punjab compared to cities i mentioned but over all Punjab is fine compared to even Haryana my city is near hyderabad we can get around 20 mbps but got to pay more. Hyderabad has really cheap rates now. Yes Hyderabad has lots of competition and one of the best internet in country so not surprised areas near by are also getting better . Even bsnl is good there because of competition .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniac Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Just read the actual OP....If not Comcast the other good option is either AT&T or Verizon apart from that COmcast rules. I tried Clear for a few months because they were one of the first ones who were offering 4G a few years back and that too for a dead cheap price but they sucked balls. And back to comcast.....will not experiment again...Comcast FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hhunaeh Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Op might receive letters like this, Comcast Changed Customer's Name to "A**hole Brown" But Is Totally Sorry When Ricardo Brown from Spokane, Washington got his most recent bill from Comcast, he had an extra special reason to be dismayed. It wasn't the pricey charges—we're all used to that by now. No, it was that on this particular bill, Comcast appears to have misspelled his name. By replacing it entirely with the word "A**hole." [Lisa] explained that her family was having financial difficulties and needed to reduce their cable bill. She'd called Comcast to cancel the cable portion of her account, for which she had to pay a $60 fee. Instead of complying immediately, a representative escalated her call to a retention specialist, who tried to persuade her to keep the cable service and sign a new two-year contract. "I was never rude," she says. "It could have been that person was upset because I didn't take the offer." Comcast insults another customer, changes woman's name to Super B*tch Comcast's customer service employees are making a habit of giving cable subscribers bad names. Not long after one man received a bill addressed to "******* Brown," another Comcast customer has been insulted by way of the monthly bill. This time, Mary Bauer picked up the title "Super B*tch" after repeatedly calling the company to try and resolve problems with her cable reception. Bauer turned to Comcast for months in hopes of fixing the service disruptions and degraded picture she was experiencing. Thirty-nine technicians visited her home over a six-month period to get things working, and ultimately Bauer said they made things right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crookbond Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 The only thing that is phaasshhtttt in Bombaiiii, costs less than a thousand per month as well Isn't this an Ahmedabad only ISP?
