I want to share my experience with you regarding what happen to my INR1800 on Friday the 11/18/2008.A person knock on my door claims himself to be from one telephone service provider(BSNL)in our state.Said there is an offer,I say it was really good offer infact,no 6 months rental and unlimited internet usage,plus 300 minutes free talktime and I fell for it.Oh God!What was I thinking then?I checked his ID card and everything seems fine. I filled up the documents,gave my photo,signature and the cheque that he was eagerly waiting to recieve from me.He said he will deliver the cordless phone on Saturday and data card on Monday.He left an dcame back the other day to let me know that he will fixed the cable in the evening.So no doubt,suspicion but he didn't turn up and today I am trying to call him and he is not picking my call nor my fiance's call.I guess,he had cheated us.I don't have bsnl office contact number to call and enquire nor any other sources to nab this guy.I feel like I am one big stupid,idiot.Have you been duped too?

Hi Brisk! Sorry to hear that this happen to you. I don't have this kind of experience as I don't trust people that I don't know. Actually if someones knock on the door, I won't even open it unless I know the person. Maybe you can find out the BSNL hotline. I hope that you'll find a way to get this guy and get you money back. Good luck and next time be careful to those people who just knocks on the door to offer something. Take care.

Actually,I don't like the bsnl service but I need residence proof address,so thought what could be the better option than this when it is coming walking straight through your door.I guess,my bad luck.This is my first time.I always double check but this time maybe I was too busy to do that and end up being duped.
