Tata Indicomm experience

Decided to buy a tata indicom photon so that there can be access to internet even when we are not at home/office. The perennial need to be connected at all times. Bought from snapdeal for 1100 got a free bag. Seems the agent might be completing some sort of target, and in all his smartness gave me the most expensive post paid plan without even checking with me.

On further pressing  CIBIL  they  responded that they work according to ----  The Credit Information Companies (Regulation)  Act, 2005. This was good information, then i checked the act online on RBI site a
