  • We would like to inform you that we have converted our Airtel 2G sim to 3 G for availabling the facility and internet facility but we found that there is no speed of 3G as advertising or told by the Customners. Our sites are opening very slowly. It is presumed that the 3G is not functioning properly. Please confirm.

    It is also told by the customer care that we are providing the services through VODAFONE tie up hence you are getting the low speed.
    Please confirm what is the fate of 3 G .
