csmart 472 Report post Posted July 1, 2013 (edited) I dont think there will be network problem in that area. RGSM is economical than Vodafone. But Vodafone has one the best networks in Mumbai. Trump, I would not recommend. Nokia 101 is good enough but have no experience so cannot comment. I would rather go for RGSM as it is recommended by the aid and also you will be having backup SIM. You have to see others convenience when you are dependent on them. Also changing number/service provider (using MNP) is not big issue.

ami1 237 Report post Posted July 1, 2013 Have shifted home to Bandra East WEH and I am finding that RGSM gives me 6-7 Mbps at home while Vodafone remains on Edge most of the time Though, just on the other side of the WEH, both give me 4-5 Mbps speeds.

Bagh_Mama 4 Report post Posted August 7, 2013 An update on RGSM and Pune. Was there last weekend and got a very poor reception with my Kolkata number. Dropped calls aplenty near Saras Baug and Osho Ashram. My Vodafone number was running strong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted August 8, 2013 ^^^^^ Even in areas where RGsm signals are stronger, the clarity of voice calls will be horrible.. Even BSNL voice calls are less horrible than RGsm calls, I have checked in Nagpur (MS), Raipur (MP+CG -- RTL 900MHz area, but still), Sivakasi (TN)...

silent_god 121 Report post Posted August 18, 2013 I would like other forum members to know this Reliance GSM coverage issue in Pune my relatives are facing. They always complaint that Reliance GSM network is highly unreliable in their area. Exact location is Near Amanora Mall, in Hadapsar, Pune. See attached picture, wherein most of the towers are located near Pune station & around. In Hadapsar, there seems to be no GSM tower of reliance. Can this be true ? I mean, have they only got license for the city or it is strategy to serve only city ? Any idea, if this can be a SIM card problem also ? Hope to get some idea on this. Any more details are required, let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gargoyle 15 Report post Posted August 29, 2013 Looking at the posts in this thread, the Gargoyle suggests a quick port-out of the R-GSM network. Economics is a good argument, but a mobile network should be able to meet its primary obligation - connect a voice call !!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The voice volume is really PATHETIC. the volume is so low that she has to ask the caller to repeat the sentence many times. I tried changing the speaker twice but with no difference in the voice quality. The mobile repairer told me that the phones hardware does not support the voice loudness so any speaker installed will give the same output. Ditto with my Micromax C115.
