@Amit.G
nice to hear that !dea have improved the coverage. what abt Airtel,Vodafone in towns and villages?
Amit.G March 26, 2011 at 12:34 pm
Now what happened to you mr?? Im using Idea ( ported in from Uninor) from 1 month as my primary number & really satisfied with its services. Before i used to comment in TT regarding poor GPRS speed of Idea in Hubli & Other parts of N karnataka but now from past 15days idea is offering 25KB/S speed in my hometown where it used to be 7KB/SEC. In bangalore also it is offering 26KB/SEC through which i watch live tv in my Nokia E52 without any buffering, Coverage is superb than any operator, Voice clarity has improved and infact now i dont find any difference between Uninor & idea’s clarity, Call rate @ 1/2paise per sec, Daily 100SMS free, EDGE connectivity even in rural areas where Airtel,Vodafone, BSNL offer GPRS connectivity. Im using AIrcel 47 pack too, but it is worst than any other operator, speed never goes beyond 4KB/Sec.

IDEA IS TOTALLY USELESS IN TELECOM INDUSTRY. IF YOU GET IDEA SIGNALS IN ONE PART OF AREA,YOU WILL NOT GET IDEA SIGNALS IN OTHER PART OF THE SAME AREA. USELESS NETWORK
