Mobile call hassles to be over soon
Are you a mobile user? Surely then, you must be getting cheesed off several times everyday after failing to connect your friend or an important person for an urgent conversation. And even if you get connected more often than not you must be wondering why the conversation went off the air all of a sudden even when you had not cut it abruptly.
Are you a mobile user?
Surely then, you must be getting cheesed off several times everyday after failing to connect your friend or an important person for an urgent conversation. And even if you get connected more often than not you must be wondering why the conversation went off the air all of a sudden even when you had not cut it abruptly.
Exactly, the same trauma afflicts the land line user who is calling you on your mobile.
While BSNL to BSNL users keep experiencing this very irritating feature, customers of other service providers like Hutch, Airtel, Reliance and others also undergo the same problem.
However, this daily ordeal is heading towards an end. And if things go as per calculations Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) and other users will have a cause to rejoice by the end of June or the first week of July after the Inter Operator Mobile Call Exchange being set up in Lucknow becomes operational.
Yes, this new exchange will serve as the panacea to all the existing problems in one go, says BSNL's new GM PK Srivastava.
All the above existing problems were there due to a single exchange through which all the private operators and the BSNL has been connected in Lucknow.
The same exchange takes the load of almost 90 percent land line callers from other states. As such the traffic load multiplies to such an enormous level that a caller on many occasions fails to get through.
Now this new exchange will exclusively deal and function for the mobile users.
This exchange will not be burdened with the load of land line traffic. Thus once land line and mobile calls are divided into two distinct categories the customers will automatically heave a sigh of relief. The old exchange will be there to deal exclusively with the land line callers.
So, if the BSNL lives upto its promise all your hang ups will be gone within a few weeks.
