Hike in Mobile prices !! Retaliation....

7th May 1999      Velhal Avinash @bom1.siemens.co.in

Dear Innmates,

As most of you mobile owners must have found out, the mobile rentals 
have gone up from Rs 156 to Rs 600 which is as per TRAI guidelines ( 
Claimed by the Mobile Operators). Surprisingly I do recollect the 
guidelines also mentions the incoming calls will be free.

Now that from 1st MAY MO's are collecting the higher rentals but we 
are being billed for incoming airtime too!!. Further the earlier 
billing used to be per second which now will be for minimum 20 
seconds!!!

Can anybody suggest how we can get some justice in this case? Can we 
file Public Interest Litigation against this? Do we have any Mobile 
Users Association to address these grievances . If not lets get 
together and form one. Knowledgeable people are requested to come 
forward.

I have been noticing a lot of grievances on this list regarding mobile 
billings and rates from you fellow inmates but this time lets do 
something.

I would request you users at least to forward this mail to the mobile 
user friends you know ( Without spamming please ) so that we can work 
out some solutions and also reach beyond only this list. By just 
forwarding and spreading the message may also help.

Expecting your cooperation and help

Regards

Incoming calls will be free when the Calling Party Pays (CPP) regime
comes into effect on August 1, 1999.
