Tata DOCOMO lives up to all network quality benchmarks set by TRAI

Tata DOCOMO-the GSM brand of Tata Teleservices Limited, have launched a series of 8 Television Ad’s that magnify the theme ‘no getting away from the network that connects always. Everywhere’ – leveraging their signature tune as the signifier of the phone ringing. This message is reinforced with a strong support basis the TRAI Quality of Service report for all operators. As per this report, the Tata DOCOMO network delivers on all network quality parameters, as set by TRAI.

 

Since launch, the Tata DOCOMO network has improved significantly and is now comparable with the top players in the category. Over the last 2 years, they have been able to complete the ramp-up of their network to support 2G as well as 3G services. Their network supports superior voice experience on calls & enables richer communication with friends and family by ensuring: Network Availability, Network Connectivity, Call Quality and Least congestion. Backed by globally most advanced network technology, network service delivery is now a key differentiator for Tata DOCOMO.

 

Most of the communication around network by various operators in the category previously has ended up narrating a storyline on the strength of network, primarily around the expanse of coverage. However, over the last few years and more so, since launch of 3G, the erratic network connectivity even in ‘covered areas’ has become a key irritant for the consumer. In fact, ‘continuity of network’ is emerging as a stronger driver of network satisfaction than geographical expanse of coverage. The new communication from Tata DOCOMO hence maintains a humorous tonality while delivering network assurance across all the TVCs. They have tried to talk up their network delivery with this new ‘continuity’ dimension in a manner that consumers decipher the benefit of a network in their own manner.

Tata DOCOMO KISS & WIN – EUREKA!

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius – and a lot of courage – to move in the opposite direction – Confucius

In a complex world like ours it becomes difficult to focus on the most basic needs with so many unwanted things competing for attention that leaves us struggling to make the right decisions. With so many thoughts clouding our mind there is hardly any space left to enjoy or even notice the simple pleasures of life. We need to de-clutter and filter out the unnecessary and reframe the most common question we ask ourselves, “What do we WANT?” to “what do I NEED?”

Telecom today is an integral part of our lives. Someone wisely said – ‘A man can go without water for 7 days, without food for 17 days and without mobile phone – for 1 hour!’ But contrarily something as important often ends up being the most complex! For those who are wondering how – try deciphering your mobile bill, or speaking to a customer care executive, or subscribing to a Value Added Service!

While other brands ‘promise’ to give us their best, Tata DOCOMO has already taken a leap of faith and launched the Keep it Simple – Eureka! leg to their KISS & WIN Contest. While Tata DOCOMO, in its own way has tried to simplify lives for us (Dial 121, press 9 to speak to their customer care executives) , they still want to reach out and get interesting ideas from the Facebook’ers on the various ideas to simplify telecom life .

You can now share your suggestions and be a part of the simplifier’s battalion by sharing your ideas on simplifying the complications in the telecom industry. All you need to do is list out a few suggestions on modifying current services or creating new ones which according to you will work best at making your communication experience glitch free.

There is no limit on the number of entries that a person can give. However mandatory for the ideas to be original and not copied! Don’t think Tata DOCOMO has an appetite to follow someone else’s footsteps!

Moreover, they have BlackBerry handsets to give away as prizes and a prestigious letter of appreciation signed by the senior management of Tata DOCOMO. I think I will have end this post now – because as I write there are already a few strands of thought bubbles which I think may get me a handset or two! See you there!
