sify uses local cable wala for the last line connectivity. never a good proposition.

It ll depend on where you are .... Except in South India Sify is hopeless everywhere else or so i hear ..... If you have any other ISPs like Airtel or BSNL in your area i suggest that you get theirs

and yes their method of using the local cable guy to give last mile connections is one of the major reasons for their poor quality of service

Definitely a nightmare. I still hate my days in Delhi when I had to use sify as sify had its monopoly in my location. How dreadful it used to be being one of the costliest internet service provider and the service was so poor. It has online payment gateway but mostly the gateway used to remain blocked making it impossible to pay. The connectivity was poor and if you call the customer service they always promised a callback which I never received. Normal time of resolving an issue used to be 5-10 hours. being a prepaid connection i lost 2-3 days on resolutions and i was never compensated for the time that i lost as i paid on monthly basis. I hope I never have to deal with sify again.
