a good hope in in dta card internet as all companies like reliance an TATA or Airtel are looting people with poor services. I also purchase Airtel data and after verification not done the drop my connection in a week time and after 2 month they are asking for Rs. 750 r so for my bill due. Its kind of practice done and me really surprised that afer disconnection how they raising such bills without any verification of connection document and this is not a matter of Rs. 750 or so but it shows wht verification means for these companies in the interest of country too. so i really hope that virgin will not do such practice for earning money in such manner on the sake of national security.
