I have a reliance netconnect which I uses when I travel (and it does work well) but the problem came from last month when I was about to travel and I want to change my plan from the minimum Rs 250 (pay as you go, 1 Rs per MB) to Rs 1750 Plan (15 GB) and I was told that this will be done from next payment cycle!

What I used to do till now is, since I already have an Airtel 2 mbps unlimieted connection, I never uses netconnect when I am home hence I keeps it as the minimum Rs 250 Plan and whenever I was about to travel, two days before I used to call reliance netconnect at 022-30335555 and used to ask them to change the plan to Rs 1750 one which they used to immediately. But now the process has been changed and Rsliance only changes the plan on next payment cycle.

Yesterday I was thinking of state of neurology in India i.e. how far the healthcare has come in neurology which to me is always “the” area where we as humans have to explore alot. I was checking some neurology treatment offered in India and found this post which talks little about the types of surgeries and treatment India is offering and I was surprised to see CCSVI too as it is not offered in too many countries and hospitals. I am very sure that atleast 5-6 major hospitals are offering this treatment in India.

Now India just need to start giving approval of cloning and stem cell research as India has penty of scholars and skilled doctors to take it further.

Few days back, I had made a post on Tatkal ticket booking and how it works, now here is another post on how inefficient the system is.

I am trying to reserve a Tatkal ticket for the last 4 days, each day I am trying to book the ticket through IRCTC website and the site doesn’t work from 8 am till 10 am. It is impossible to book a tatkal ticket as there are only 6 available per day for the train I am trying and it looks like they are getting taken in first 2 minutes itself.

Half of the summer is gone and Indian trains are having huge waiting list of 200+ and more in sleeper class. I tried to book a ticket and there was no ticket available in any of the five trains even after 3 weeks. Needless to say, I am going through “tatkal” route now.

With tatkal system, you can get a ticket 2 days before the departure of the train for additional Rs 75 for Sleeper, Rs 200 for AC III Tier and Rs 300 for AC II Tier which is fairly reasonable since in summer, the waiting list often don’t get cleared, specially for AC II tier and AC III tier.

In the Morning when I tried to open IRCTC site it was not working. This is not the first time this has happened and certainly won’t be the last time as I think 25% of the time, your ticket booking never gets completed.

After spending 5-10 minutes selecting all the options, the moment I click on payment option, I get logout of the site saying some unexpected error happened and I have to start everything all over again. What I never understood is, why can’t they store sessions for people to I again don’t have to start everything.

I had written an Air Conditioner review few days back telling you guys that I have purchased Haier Air Conditioner because I got all the cable/tube with it unlike voltas Air conditioners (and others), now here is the problem, It is not working!

Apparently the “gas” of the air conditioner is leaking as per Haier, it took them 7 days to refill the gas and after two weeks, the gas again went out. I have made numerous calls to Haier support and they say they will come and see but nothing has been done so far.
