Soon after I changed my mobile handset yesterday I got the following SMS from my mobile provider Airtel,
Your handset does not support gprs settings, please add airtelgprs.com as Access Name and leave the username and password blank in the browser settings menu. For further help, call 12118
Surprising nobody in Airtel has realized they are promoting a parked domain. Reasonably sure they owned airtelgprs.com at some point of time but forgot to renew. A cyber squatter must be hoping to retire. A screenshot of airtelgprs.com as of today is shown below
On a side note I think the 3G charges in India are still high. Airtel is unable to give me an estimate of my current 2G bandwidth usage as I am on an unlimited plan. Without having the current usage I am unable to estimate what my 3G usage would be. Why can’t Airtel help?
