TATA Teleservices (Maharashtra) Ltd., Mumbai - India

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

My ISP is TATA Teleservices (Maharashtra) Ltd., Mumbai (India). I have taken a Broadband Connection of 512 kbps from them. Their Plan is "Business 700 - 512 kbps" with 1:4 compression ratio. Firstly, I should get an real speed of 512 kbps, but they argues that as per compression ratio you will get 128 kbps speed, but then why they are advertising this as 512 kbps plan. Now as per them I should get 128 kbps speed, but in actual I am getting only 90, 80, 85, 60, 40, 9, 8, 6 kbps speed only. I lodged about 22 complaints with them, but none has been attended. I have tested their speed at various level, and have the records of all those tests. They are charging me about 1200/- Per Month, but giving only 60 kbps speed against my plan of 512 kbps. They are just cheating to public. I hereby warn public, not to take their connections.

Tata guys are wrong when they say that you should be getting 128kbps speed on a 512 kbps plan.
According to the law the speed at the isp node should be atleast 512 and after that there is some loss of speed in the last mile connectivity which should in my opinion, not be more then a loss of 10-15% which should still keep the speed at more then 400kbps in any case.. although there may be lower speeds due to network congestion and other factors but not to the extent you have stated.

I suggest you send them a few e-mails complaining about this and if they dont do anything about it go to your local consumer forum and file a complaint and get all your money back and just change your isp.. let them get the taste of their own medicine.

You are not the only one getting extremely low speeds as I have seen a lot of other threads in this forum complaining about the same thing so I assume there is something severely wrong with their set up and the way their customer service staff works who manages to ignore such complaints.. I am not sure what their higher management is doing about this issue, if atall.
