^^ I left Vodafone after being a platinum subscriber. They took 18hrs to update my payment and i was stranded in the highway due to their incompetency.

That evening i disconnected my Vodafone...

[desiibond]

^^ow. Feel sorry for that. Customer care has always been wonderful for me. I always pay at the Vodafone Store or ask someone to come to my house to collect the payment.

[Ganeshkumar]

What is that platinum customer...?

[Tech.Masti]

^^what is Platinum customer?

[desiibond]

Higher limit of outstanding amount. Less nonsense calls from customer care. priority during peak periods

"all on paper" afaik.

[dreamcatcher]

Are u on postpaid??...i have been a voda customer for the last 7 years..but no platinum/gold/diamond for me..

The AON (Age On Network) is only one of the factors they take to upgrade a subscriber to platinum status. Raking up high mobile bills of the order of 2k or above and prompt payment before the last payment date are also considered (i guess). I came to know that i am platinum subscriber when i disconnected. The gal who called me up, enquiring the reason for disconnection had stated so.

But nothing can replace getting stranded in the highway for 2 hours, with a non-functional network on my phone...grrrrrr
