Akash tablet project nearly-dead because of corruption?

[kg11sgbg]

@all
I've demanded my amount of booking for Ubislate7+ as full Refund,and cancelled my order.Datawind was promising me to deliver the tablet between 1st -to -15th of June,now they are telling that the Tablet will be delivered between 15th -to- 30th June....afterwards they will tell that it's a promise the Tablet will be delivered between 1st -to- 15th July,..........................................................................[Jan,Feb,...,Dec](nth Year!!!!???)

If they are not a cheater company,then obviously they will refund me back my money,else it will be my FATE...

Just,wondering how fools like me are still prebooking(with payment)for Ubislate7+ Tablet??!!

This is exactly what is happening with me right now.
Don't know about the others.

Well good luck to you then.

 

[thetechfreak]

you wont be getting it sadly. I have read about few people even loosing their money after transferring the ammount to them.
If you get somehow, which is very unlikely this month I will also try getting mine.

Buddy, AAKASH & UBISLATE7+ ARE NOT SAME.
I am discussing about Ubislate7+ Tablet(Which is the COMMERCIAL VERSION of Aakash),for which I've prepaid the money.
I am also never ever trying to COMPARE Ubislate7+ Tablet with any of those from:---> Micromax,Iberry,Spice,HCL; etc. those of which FALLS INTO A DIFFERENT LEGION + CATEGORY of Tablets.
Why don't you see for the specs of Ubislate7+ here ?

I think you should cancel your order ASAP, if you can. In some previous posts, they said delivery in August, in this post, they're saying September. The question is WHICH SEPTEMBER?
Or else, you can try threatening them with Legal Action against Datawind. Just draft a letter with description of all your problems and demands (if any), send it to their registered address through Registered Post (via India Post), and ask them to respond to your letter/demand within 30 days. In case, they do not, then you can file a complaint (with a copy of the letter sent to Datawind's Registered Office Address + copy of emails - Order Acknowledgement and the mails following that) in your district's consumer forum and file for a refund (with interest) + Fine (for mental harassment).

It seems they are posting such mails everyday...again HOPE!!!???
Today also I contacted them at 1800 180 2180 and just in the 2nd attempt,I could speak to them.The customer care staff listened to my queries with care and compassion(unlike the former queries during these months) and informed me that the Ubislate 7+ Tablets are being delivered with carefully packaging to the respective customers(PRE-PAID) in batch-by-batch slot.
He assured that within 10 days I am sure to get the Tablet,if not more.
He also checked my credentials and payment database.
Again PATIENCE.

i) Post #1

ii) Post #177

Feeling neglected yaaro...

 

[tushar33]

this tablet will always be stuck in the assembly line. One day someone gets contract then next day and so on..
All these numbers are just optimistic. We wont see it on the street in the near future IMHO.

Though it was a wise attempt for the underprivileged.

 

[raghupratap]

Lesson - Government should not stick its nose in business. Instead, it should its business - make good policy, create an environment that helps such businesses start and thrive. Decent Rs 6K tablets are already in the market - without any government incentive or such. If they had just left it alone, we could well have had 3-4K tablets. Now they have messed it up for everybody.

^ Obviously.They were playing with all customers like us.
I very well knew,that they will send me a mail and say that I shall get the Ubislate7+ Tablet SURELY on October...November...December...------------------------------------->>>>>>>>>>>>>ETERNITY...
Well I've purchased the VeeDee E10 Tablet from VeeDee Enterprises,Tab is on its way to me in the next 3~4 days.

I purchased it from here

Opened a thread on the Mobile & Tablet section about VeeDee E10,any previews/reviews/info./feedback are welcomed and suggested there at #1 post

^ IMO, you should have considered the Micromax funbook instead. Though, I don't know how their customer support is, but, I think Micromax's CS might be better than their's. Hope you don't need to go to Customer Care.

^Pray-FULLY and Hopefully so...

But you can have a look at HERE

The Battery may be an issue.Let's see,after I get hold of this Tablet.
