What you are saying makes perfect sense. And when I had talked to the Cochin office - They said that they have nothing to do with Tata Indicom and hence you wont get the sim at the True Value Hub or Store.

me_saket 73 Report post Posted June 26, 2009 Edit: the details are for only southern states viz. TN, Orissa, & Kerala as of now!!! Next circle of launch is ORISSA!!! Thereafter AP or Karnataka... It also showing AP and karnataka. For more detils visit http://www.tatadocomo.com/sitemap.aspx went to 2 outlets now. they have got their dealer's easy recharging sim. but customer sim not yet received.. all are saying july 1... This sim is more important than customer sim, because customer cant do calling before doing rechage. i think u will get sim by 2maro evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thinkpositive 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 (edited) Just talked to the Kerala CC.Sim charge - Rs. 49 Talktime - Rs. 5 Rest all is ditto. No bundled 25/- TT with the SIM? Even i am looking for a SIM...please do lemme know when u get your hands on one .. Please be updated that we are going to get 5 ruppes as intial talktime on every sim activated before 25th July 2009 Congratulations for all those members from Kerala!!! Called up three places - value shops and hubs. They have no details as to when the consumer will get the sim in hand. Morever - DoCoMo will have separate selling channels it seems. I need a sim. Dear Mr. Sonam Kumar, I'll be looking forward for your post to hear about the experience tomorrow. ^^^but for postpaids they should have their own store in every town. if postpaid comes under same roof [true value shop] then we can expect on july 1 esle will take some time.. ^^^but for postpaids they should have their own store in every town. if postpaid comes under same roof [true value shop] then we can expect on july 1 esle will take some time..

We are not going to get GSM sims through TATA hubs or shopees for the time being. Soon three brands (indicom, docomo and virgin) going to be under one roof. discussions are going on the top corporate ("anil sardana") level. hope we can expect the unexpected. Checked and confirmed with a docomo employee and a indicom employee.. both are on same page. docomo is planning to go with local retailers now at least for one to two months Edited June 27, 2009 by thinkpositive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You got your SIM Please post your experience. I Got sim from Manoj Mobile shop, Near CESZ, Kakkanad, Kochi (Kerala circle). 09037364065 Congratulations... waiting for your review!!! Sorry guys for the late response.... sorry to savramesh too... I have only one gsm handset, anyway I need to get one more (so sorry I cant loose my 4+ years old Airtel number for the time being). that's why it happened I got the sim (dark green in color) on Saturday morning. Which comes with cool three fold book type packing. user guide is also too funny to read. in English as well as in Malayalam. I paid 49 rupees for the sim the retailer compelled me to do a 51 rupees first recharge (he said he wont get any commission if I refused to do the first recharge from him) first I said no coz sim have 5 rupees talktime which is enough to make some calls on per second billing. I am sure that if I am not ready to do the first recharge I won't get the sim, he has only 4 sim on stock) I put the sim on the handset ... switched on.... Tried to check my balance *111# (I need to confirm that the sim is got recharged for 51 rupees or not). i got the reply to make a call first to activate the service. ok.. I tried for the first call. OOPS...."your outgoing facility is temporarily barred, please contract 121 for more details.... tried 121 ..... same reply. again back to the retailer. i told the situation.. he made some calls to the dealer care from his mobile (dealer sim is dark brown in color) .. he made my sim active within ten mins. HELLO WORLD !!!!! NOW I BECOME A SUBSCRIBER OF TATA DOCOMO what else. balance got finished with in 1 hour. first called my dad then made some STD (Which is cheaper, right?) calls to my friends. hat's off to TATA DOCOMO. Foot notes: call charge printed on the sim packet and on the tarif sheet inside is local calls 1 rs per min and 1.5 rs for std. nothing to worry i got 1ps per sec tariff. Till now I am not able to use its gprs connectivity. Checked with cust care many times. Edited June 27, 2009 by thinkpositive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be wonderful if all of the three brands (Indicom, DoCoMo and Virgin Mobile) come under a single roof. As each one of them has its own distinction, they would not conflict each others identity. People who just want the basic & economical voice services or internet services would go to the Indicom desk. People who savor variety of services, privileges and convenience would go to the DoCoMo desk. The fully charged youth would go to Virgin Mobile desk. And lastly for people who would like to explore everything, there is MNP desk. If Abhishek Bachchan sees such a Tata Trio shop in Mumbai from his car window .........he would certainly say ----- "Ahh.... What an Idea, Ratan Ji" Edited June 28, 2009 by bhargavachandra Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lostjournal 7 Report post Posted June 28, 2009 Mini Review - My number : 9037111611 Activation: Instantaneous Outdoor Coverage: Outstanding Indoor Coverage : Great( wont say oustanding) ( between 3 and 5 newwork bar out of five) Call Connection to Airtel: Without any fuss. Sim size : 64 k. Clock settings not needed as the clock adjusts with the network time. Ok next - I put the sim on my NOkia E71. And voila! The gprs is active(Edge). And access point is still - airtelgprs.com I am attaching a few unboxing pics below: It all started here when I saw this Ad in Kesavadasapuram- Then I went to kichoos,Plamoodu junction to get the sim. The tariff details are as below: See the "LUCKY" phrase. This is how the packet looked initially: The back of the packet( note the tariff): After opening the packet: User Guide: Half in English,half in Malayalam Continued... The color of the sim is in brown shade for me(as in their site) and not green .( I love green one though.) Will keep you all posted.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
