What happened to my Seven hundred rupees



It’s really a good thing happened to me to understand suvidhaa better. And it started as usual,,,


Once in a fine day  one of my firend called me and told me recharge his Sundirect  TV account for rupees Seven hundred. As  usual I tried to recharge his account through Suvidhaa POS, But the easy recharge option that means the column for the smart card Number was not Displayed. Then I thought the E pin will be displayed, What a pity Nothing has happened, except the deduction of Seven hundred rupees from my account. It was happened on March 8th 2011at 6:15 Pm.
I’ve filed a complaint in suidhaa message box imeediately.  But within an hour my complaint was removed from that message box. That’s the first time I realize that everything we do with suvidhaa was saved in their server only, and they can do whatever they wish.  Whenever you give a complaint take a Printscreen image in high resolution and save it in your Email for future reference.

Two days past, I called the customer (STD Number, spends 30 paise a minute to talk with those persons) a lady attended my call and said “Your complaint has been forwarded, you will get the solution within three days”. Hardly four months have gone and I didn’t get my money or solution till now (25th of August 2011).

I have sent more than thirty emails regarding the same problem but no one has responded.  And the thing they have confirmed about them is…. (see the email I have sent to suvidhaa Customer care )

What are all ACTUALLY AVAILABLE WITH SUVIDHAA PART 2

We have seen some samples in Mobile recharges but what about the DTH recharge.

Here comes the most annoying thing. 


Not all the DTH recharges are easy Only sundirect is done by Easy, but this month (August 2011), Dish TV and Tata sky are turned into easy recharge.

The reason i said annoying is Most of the time when you like to recharge the Easy option wont be shown,  The you decides to get the epin.

However you are managed to get the E-pin for the Dish recharge how your going to recharge with it. Some numbers will be shown next to the Epin, You have to call that number and register the Smart card number, select the recharge type, and have to key in the Epin.

For me recharging, BIGTV, VIDEOCON D2H was easy, But TATASKY's IVR is such a nonsense eventhogh you type the desired option it will repeatedly tells that "You didnt press any key", Then the call will be connected to a customer care executive, He will do it again and it was done.  In this time you wont know who came to your outlet, and for what they have came.

In SUN DIRECT the comission is 3.5 % for easy, but how could you do a easy recharge if that optio is not available. see below
In the above the images the column for the smart card number was not displayed, so you have to get the epins. And the thing is SUNDIRECT don't have a Toll- free number to call.  To get a income of rs 2. You need to spend nearly four or 5 Rs.

Actual image of how it works

But there is a option to recharge  sundirect online

What are all ACTUALLY AVAILABLE WITH SUVIDHAA

In the previous post I've given what the facilities are all available as per the advertisement of suvidhaa, But truth differs from what was assured.

Let go through the Recharge section first.

First the percentage of comission in telecom recharges is assured as 3 % regardless of the network to which the recharge was done. But the comission percentage varies according to the operator and not even single operator exceeds 2.5 comission

Eventhogh some recharge comissions are said 2.5 to 3.2 Percentage those recharge will not be available when you want to recharge.
That is the percentage denoted is for Easy recharge, when you like to do it in easy format,the easy recharge option will not be available and you will be forced to recharge it using te E- pin.

1. Recharge of airtel number have been removed from suvidhaa  before four months, but they still advertise they they are having airtel recharge.  The software will show you the option to recharge Airtel mobiles, but when you try to recharge nothing will happen.

2. DOCOMO , in this you cannot recharge the amount you wish to recharge, consider that a customer walks in and asks for recharge of Rupees 50/-  You will receive a error code like this

After that you have to contact the Distributor for that error and he will ask you to do a recharge for 110 /-, and you wonder what a Miracle, the recharge was done. But the thing is the amount we can recharge with TATA DOCOMO in Suidhaa POS is Rs 110/-, 220/-, 19/, 48/-.
I dont what are all these amounts are for.

Most important thing is whatever recharge you doing will only be consider as cash topups and not special packs are, SMS boosters.

3. third comes VIRGIN MOBILE

I wonder why they listed this in their software, i have atleast done three airtel recharges by getting the Epin once, But I never done a Virgin Mobile recharge till now. The minimum amount of Epin aailable is 250 Rs

The minimum amount of Easy available is Rs 10/-. But when you try to recharge it shows this
And the same as above is available for special tariff vouchers

And now its Uninor.

The same all the above applies to Uninor recharge also, but sometimes it really does works.

And some samples while recharging a same number for more than 7 times (Note the different transaction IDs) the uninor number are
