Hello Great Tata indicomm,

My complaint id : 3886298.
I think when you renew a package then only Tata Indicomm will start showing its true color.
When i renewed a new package, connection was not provided till 15 days. Now again same problem persisting for last 10days...And the worst part is that your technician who is incharge of this, is not picking up the calls also.
Probably my biggest mistake by believing tata indicomm internet connection for the 2nd time.

Thanks for your wonderful service.Please kindly provide me connection so that i will atleast use it for remaining days and can switch to some other vendor.
