Mobile Operators Not Supporting Airtel!!

Airtel blasts mobile operators as ‘anti competitive’


Bharti Airtel, planning to offer services by end December, says it is concerned about existing mobile operators being anti competitive. "The mobile operators are not providing interconnection to Airtel on the same terms as they practice amongst themselves", Sanjay Kapoor, President Mobile Services at Airtel told The Sunday Times FT in an interview on Friday.

Interconnect is a set of legal rules, technical and operational arrangements between network operators that enable customers on one network to communicate with customers of another network. "When Airtel requested the other operators to provide an interconnection with their networks, the operators wanted us to pay for this interconnection at Rs. 1.50 per minute whereas they themselves were practicing a free call system amongst themselves," Mr. Kapoor said.

He said this was somewhere in July and on the request of Airtel, Telecommunication Regulatory Authority (TRC) agreed to intervene and appoint a consultant to arrive at a fair and consumer friendly interconnecting rate.

Online Marketing

Airtel, the leading operator in the fast growing Indian market, will use Onskreen technology to serve content on the main screen of subscriber's mobile phones.Onskreen, a Seattle based company, lets Airtel customize the home screen of mobile devices and give subscribers one-click access to the content they want. Airtel licensed the Onskreen Fusion platform, a service for new and existing devices in the marketplace.With Onskreen, operators can create their own channel of content on the main screen of subscriber's devices and market new services as they are released."Airtel already offers users the most varied selection of data services in the Indian market. Our next step is to give users a simple and compelling way to access all types of content on their device, right from the main screen. Onskreen allows us to do that," said Rajiv Jaitly, COO Airtel Rajasthan.

yeah. specially dialog. i have a very bad experience with dialog. wen i switched to mobitel i didnt use my dialog sim for around 2 months and lyk after 3 months im getting a bill amounting to Rs.1500. and da most was call charges. my dad got pissed and went to da office there and blasted them and they appologized for it and told my dad not to talk abt it outside. my dad got more pissed wen they said they will give another sim free of charge of compensation but my dad said diconnect my line and threw da sim in da dustbin at their office and came back.

maara horu bunz.

mam dan 3 yrs mobitel use karanawa no problems.

Not really if you know the history of this.

When Air Tell first came here (though I never participated in any threads about Air tell before) our legal firm was one of the few they contacted to be their representatives in SL.

From my personal experience, I know that Air Tell is a bunch of air headed assholes who got no value of the business people in this country. One of the many reasons WE also moved our selves from them and now they are employing an Indian law firm after us (whom has no damn idea of what's going on in this country and they are screwing up as well).

When Air Tell first came to SL, the other mobile operators were pretty much enthusiastic and believe it or not "FRIENDLY" with them as well. Dr. Hans personally invited them for a round discussion with the other mobile operators in SL and too see a way of all having a better share in the market.

but these INDIAN FUCK ASS IDIOTS refuced .. they were too proud and too damn sure of them selves that they are going to take over Sri Lanka.

When TRC of SL extended their invitation to other mobile operators to share their communications Towers with the Air tell.. THEY AGREED.. with no extra charges.

So.. what did the AIR Tell did ?? THEY REFUSED AGAIN......they said "NO' because they planned to put towers in all cities.

But the indian idiots got few facts very wrong before jumping their guns.

1. The Best Tele tower places in the country are already OWNED by the present mobile tele companies.

2. They cannot cover up the overhead of putting up towers as and when they want in which ever the location they wanted.. cause the present companies took nearly 10 years to build their network.. and what makes you think a new company can take over and cover the whole island in 1 year ?

3. Sri Lankan dynamic business practices.... that if you don't play NICE.. you don't get to PLAY AT ALL

so.. now the indians are fucked up pretty good and screwed up to the MAX.. (I know of personal contacts and insights I still get on a weekly basis) they are struggling to launch their network which has been putting behind schedule for nearly 2 years now.

So.. at last .. they asked the Dialog / mobitel / Hutch to let them share the towers.

Mobitel being a SLT subsidiary has agreed.. but Dialog and Hutch has completely turned them down. Please note that together Dialog and Hutch controlls nearly 85% of the total island coverage. !

As for airtell.. from my own experiance.. I say.. BIG FARTS.. NO SHIT at all.

I stand by my comments and open for any challenge of these facts from anyone who know's better or thinks they know better.

well said nash! it's allways easy to saying things without facts but it's allways really hard to argue with the fact. so you did the hard part and hat'z off for that. so many people telling things and come up with the conclutions without knowing anything also hope what you said with the fact was good lessons for them.
