@ Rajan, The only major benefit of prepaid over postpaid is that the tariffs are lower because of various full TT offers and on which no Service Tax is deducted - thereby giving you fullest bang for your buck. The ST as all know amounts currently to 10.3% and which sometime back was 12.36%. Maybe in this budget on Monday, it will get restored to 12.36% so that the GoI has lot of money for providing doles to poor and by this way - they also get their votes in the next elections. But on the flip side, yes, you have to be checking out daily or maybe twice, thrice, four times or even more every day to see if your balance has indeed vanished or not. Plus the headache of remembering the validities of the various addon packs etc. In all my Six (4 with RCOM and 2 with BSNL) postpaid accounts, I have never been wrongly charged for things that are being generally complained about by many prepaid users on this forum. Some charges are wrongly charged, but then when you complain, they do not close the case saying 'you were rightly charged'. And even in such cases, I email to the CMO etc and get the refund somehow or the other. You see the cellco also has to survive in this extremely competitive business - so what they give as FTT eventually gets adjusted by un-authorised activation of VAS packs etc. Eventually what you have gained initially, you will lose later and that is definite. In all my Seven prepaids (4 with RCOM, 2 with Voda and 1 with Airtel) there have always been some wrong charges or the other at some point of time. It is upto each user to decide whether postpaid is good or prepaid is good. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Some offers are available only in prepaid, whereas some other offers are only for postpaid. Its like choosing between the devil and the deep sea. LET THE BUYER BEWARE! @raccoon, You can just throw away the DoCoMo card and get yourself another operator. You were one of the most vociferous against people wanting to stick to one operator, come what may. Knowing you, I am sure you will discard DoCoMo soon. Cheers.
