Hello guys and gals,
I am using AIrtel network now. I'm planning to move to Vodafone by retaining the same number (Thanks to Mobile Number Portability).
The reason I'm thinking of leaving AIrtel is because
1) Call charges in Airtel are a bit on the higher side. I need to pay 60 paise per call for calling a non-Airtel number. On most other networks it is 50 paise per sec.
2) No option to top-up for desired amount online. The only option is to recharge using Netbacking facility for a specified amount (333,400,...). I checked that Vodafone site allows you to recharge online from their site for any amount you like.
3) I pay 98 bucks every month to activate GPRS. Now there is no option to activate this online or through SMS. This is a major turn-off for me.
4) I'm getting a lot of calls from AIrtel insisiting me to switch to their postpaid connection even when I have registered to DO NOT DISTURB registry.
Folks who have used both the networks, please suggest me if it makes sense to move to Vodafone considering these problems with Airtel. Does Vodafone have any of the same problems?
