Rep Power: 0 | Hi, My account id is sonal_18. I took Sify Broadband on 16th of June 2009 and had terrible problems thereafter. My connection used to get disconnected every 2 days and the reason i got was connectivity error because the franchisee people didn't connect it properly. Ultimately on 30th of June 2009 i got my connection disconnected for 4th time which never returned before 4th of July for which i was promised extra time on broadband (never ever given). The most harrasing part is: 1. I never got any refunds or extra hours. 2. I had to call 1000 times to Sify and Franchisee and Sify people used to come during my office hours and say you are not in home how will we check? 3. When asked to come at 6, very adamant and used to say working hours till 5 pm only. 4. One day i had to stay at home for them the whole day waiting till 5 pm and then they arrived at 8 in the evening (after wasting my whole day) and restored my connection and even took a sign that it was my fault that i don't stay at home during afternoon so my connection is restored after 4 days. What the hell man!!! 5. The franchisee never picked up phone after 5 pm so no use of calling them after repeated disconnections. 6. Call sify and they say will be solved within 24 hours which never happens as i explained. Atlast i asked for a refund and i was given the reply there is no refund of installation. I lost Rs. 520 (fee monthly), Rs. 100 (line maintenance), Rs. 500 installation. All in all Rs. 1120 lost. Ultimately i took Airtel Broadband and i am very happy with their service. The Franschise of Sify i am talking is at Jwala heri, Lamba Complex. People involved from their side: Sanjay:9212979764, Kamal:9250924362, Mr. Vijay from Sify:9711683301,9312041961 and Mr. Amit from Sify:9871778008. These people should be booked for Fraud before some other person is duped of his hard earned money. BEWARE OF SIFY AND NEVER TAKE THEIR SERVICES. Regards, Sonal Sinha |

| Senior Member & Mod | smoothy you wrote something wrong there.. jokes apart.. yes sify is also my one of the best parts of life.. i used to check cafes in Delhi, Varanasi(my maternal home)... i used to browse net for hours.. though it was 25/- per hour and was quite costly, but cafeing was a very big habit of mine.. this itself led me to open my own cafe in my place, i also wrote them to make me their francisee in Nainital, but cause Nainital didnt have any big sify infrastructure, i had to take back my steps.. |

Rep Power: 3 | All the Broadband Services over cable are programmatic in india, the main cause for the same is that they have roped in the local cable operators to provide the service. |

Rep Power: 1 | You know all i got to see is (-ve) stuff about sify... and all cases are like really frustutating. Sad that their sify i way cafes were really so good (well, were good) and then why do they have to do kill their already "down in the pits" reputation ? Sify wont last long, I am seeing only where BSNL and Airtel or other ISP arent available people are taking sify as the "last" resort |
