raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 From where are they (RCom) getting so many subscribers despite RGSM being so bad in so many cities? I don't think people going in for CDMA would count for much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanveer 59 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 You definitely seem to have an agenda against CDMA in general and Reliance in particular. Whats the story raccoon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 Huh?! I don't have anything particular against RCom... except their pathetic GSM network. I have always stated things as they are - good and bad, both. I'm surprised at your comment.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 (edited) ^ You are a bit over sarcastic at times of Rcom, or perhaps you are not aware of the loopholes to enjoy it to the fullest... LOL... I know what you mean, but I'm not inclined to utilize those loopholes for want of time AND also for other reasons. Also, if you have to utilize loop holes in order to enjoy a service, I wouldn't be inclined towards such a company and its policies. Not when there are other, possibly better options so easily available. If there weren't other options, I may of course do different. But my comments in this thread was directed towards numbers. Do you expect the average subscriber who makes up for those numbers are CDMA gurus and would be attracted to RCDMA due to its loopholes? I think not. Also, I have observed most people I know are not inclined towards CDMA due to the obvious drawbacks. I know you have found ways around many of those drawbacks, but your type forms a very small minority. As for RGSM, the network seems to be quite bad in most cities, and obviously no loophole is going to help on that front. Hence my surprise at the subscriber addition figures. As for my sarcasm, it seems you haven't experienced their GSM network in Poona. If you did, you would hopefully not think it to be "overly sarcastic".

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 ^ PM for details and I will promise you you will never think of ever using any other service provider in your life and you will shift back to Reliance CDMA at once...

tanveer 59 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 I know your complaints about concantenated SMS and poor handsets. But without a doubt you get the best voice clarity and cheapest fares both for voice and SMS. There are positives to everything only if you are willing to look for them.

raccoon 53 Report post Posted June 30, 2010 (edited) ^^^As I'v mentioned before - I really can't agree about the voice clarity thingy. I have used RCDMA for 3+ years and all I can say is that its voice clarity is comparable to that of Idea... and now I don't find Docomo laggin either (at least not at my place... yet to try it in different parts). In fact I have found Idea to be slightly better (mebbe about 10%) than RCDMA, at most times. I know others here do not agree, but I have to speak from my own experiences. Anyway, this has already been discussed before, along with the reasons, so I won't elaborate further. I have never mentioned that there are only negatives with RCom. Of course there are positives too, and I have always stated things and my experiences as is. Edited June 30, 2010 by raccoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
