Phone Service War in Old days — Hillarious

Youtube sometimes gives you great fun, and reminds your old days.

Below video is about Phone Service provider war to attract customer in those days.

I still remember phone calls from customer representative with attractive money refund offers. And, whenever there was get together it was mostly discussed topic (like today’s iPhone) who is offering what and who got best offer so far. We Gujju are keen in this skill since childhood, so top in businesses and proudful too. .

I remember switching services on different names of roommates to fool PSP’s (Phone Service Providers) fine line terms & conditions, and once roommate names were used then try to use different addresses. That’s not end, we then used PO BOX addresses and we were ready to move out to different apartment with 2 x (32×30”) baggages + sleeping bag if PSP’s offer attractive money offer . Bottom line was to get best deal out of PSPs pocket by switching service and make them fool.

And, why not?. We were paying huge amount to call to our family members in India and these PSP never came forward to give us good rate so this was alternative way to lower our telephone bills.

I don’t surprize these PSPs are no longer making profit and some of them are already bankrupt. They took all Indian’s sigh when PSP’s were

· sending huge bills

· messing up calling rate from 0.65cents/min to 3.56cent/min

· charging hefty monthly charge for just to have facility to call

· cutting our telephone calls in between of recipe exchange and had to have food without proper taste

· not letting us to connect back home during Diwali Time due to busy lines

And, after seeing above video I only have one regret that we weren’t offered MCI’s deal ( Sorry Chini ) during that time frame. After all those war where they are.

MCI is bankrupt due to MCI were spending most to treat their customer(s) and they were having unfaithful staff.

Sprit is sinking due to their Al-Quida support got weaken so their terrified customer are moving to different career. By the way, Sprint’s customer service sucks.

at&t is still up due to I work here.
