oh yeah loads of misinformation and wrong pricing and loads of other info which doesnt match a-z or z-a and 1-0 or 0-1 of what mentioned in this post.
why and how? i will narrate here. as usual my bad habit of looking for the fine prints and reading the fine prints got me into trouble of not getting beloved things with eyes closed and signed. sorry i feel pathetic at times for being such a nasty fine print proof reader bug.
#1. i was told this mobile wont be more than 24k i.e. 24000.
i got a call from nokia and i was told i will have to pay 24500.
first thing? the OP said everything for 24,000 or 24k, which is not the base itself did cost me 24,500 which is 24.5k. point number one.
#2. i was then told i need to pay 4% vat. mmm, 4% vat is okay as i am in chennai and i dont need to pay octoroi, and i am a citizen and i thus need to pay 4% vat, its my duty to the country. fine i agreed.
#3. then i was asked to pay 25,500, the NPD or nokia priority dealer was clueless about any thing which is mentioned here.
so if i add 4% vat on this price i 26520.
now marginally this is not much of a difference, but there is a big difference mathematically.
26520-24000 = 2520, now 2520 even tho is a small such in todays money matter is still mathematically incorrect.
#4. the person, the lady who contacted me? yesterday? i told her, this issue and she said she will maill and spoke a little apologetic. and also asked me for my mail ID. and sarcastically speaking i guess she suffers from short term memory loss. i was told over the phone she will email me asap her email ID or official email ID where i will send the recorded conversation of the talk between me and the call center in mp3 format. and i didnt get any mail. HOW FUNNY!!!!!!
someone once so apologetic, and then was die hard persuant of me buying the mobile in the scheme, and asking my mail ID and not replying? and we have a huge post here?
mmmm something scammish? i guess.
and now univercell offers me this mobile for 25700, with handset price + vat inclusive and also an insurance.
so i get not just the mobile, a mobile for way less and also insurance.
so i dropped the idea of buying the mobile now, n900, and i will buy it a little after 3 months from univercell, for 20k, as per the sales rep told me in 3 months the prices will slash, and this is a linux phone, people buy and start screaming and swearing as they are unable to use it like a symbian phone.
so, i dont know, if i am liable for an answer or explaination, or this is just a plain scam, but whatever, my old undead habit of reading the fine print and raising index finger in the form of doubt when there is a financial deal and agreement, didnt get me the phone and also money goes back to bank again.
whats my conclusion?
so long so long so long. thanks for all the fish.
