Airtel adds advertising before paid hello tune!

[James Martin]

Suing is a painful process in India, but in this particular case, the company does seem largely at fault, unless they play the ad even before the line is connected [ringing starts]

I never ever subscribed for hello tune since I got mobile almost 10 years back.

In Docomo KA, If you call any Docomo number, You will hear "Switch to Docomo ..Blah..Blah" for 10 Sec, Before the ring goes! Its irritating

Try calling from a non docomo number to a docomo number.

ya i experienced the same when i was calling from my Airtel number to my friends Docomo number.it says to switch to docomo for better offers ... shame on companies now that have started adverts by this way too

OMG! This was reported 5 years back still airtel is doing advertisement in the hello-tunes. It happens in Karnataka not in Tamil Nadu.
