Axis Bank - IRCTC Offer

There are many offers always available worldwide but not always useful (with most of them eye-catching discounts at perfectly wrong time)

Coming to the offer of discussion, Axis bank has come up with an offer for increasing the awareness of its VISA debit card in doing transactions online (buying and selling goods). It is not linked with IRCTC but giving Rs.50/- on the first successful transaction made on the VISA debit card (with registration between July 1st to August 31st). This amount will be remitted to your account only after a month.

Even if you are a infrequent traveler in train, you can use this IRCTC site to book tickets right at your desk. These things are of great convenience with the increase in the pace of technology. Also, You can book tickets 3 months in advance. For those riders who prefer to make the decision at the end, there is TATKAL which opens 5 days before the journey date and you can book these tickets as well in IRCTC

Here comes the funny part.
For those who are customers of AXIS bank for more than 2 years (it was called UTI Bank then), you would have got a VISA debit card without a CVV number. For those who doesn't know what is CVV, it is Card Verification Value code and it is the last 3 numbers in the back of the card. This offer requires you to book using the credit card gateways given in the IRCTC site. This credit card gateway requires CVV number, which is not available with the AXIS bank customers who were loyal for more than 2 years. This offer is not valid for those people and they have to get a new debit card from AXIS bank to avail this offer.

Finally, it's campaign ends up with AXIS bank customers who are less than 2 years old.

Nokia E51 WLAN Settings

Nokia E51 is a smart phone with almost all the features available in it. It looks really slim and comes in three colors. It has loads of features and highlight of them all is the connection through the Internet through WLAN. You can get a Internet connection from the service provider and ask for the wi-fi router. With the wi-fi router, you can connect to the Internet through various other devices like Laptop, Nokia E51 etc., You will be provided with the password for the WLAN connection and only if you enter the password correctly you will be connected to the Internet through that WLAN. As you may expect, this password will be asked only when you connect to Internet through this WLAN for the very first time. In Laptop/Computer, you have Network settings to identify and modify the settings if wrongly entered. But this is somewhat tricky in case of Nokia E51! In Nokia E51, You have the option of Browse WLAN right at the home page for you. If you have customized for something different, u

Igate delisting - Is it worth the bet? - Part II

I said it is worth the bet in my previous post . For delisting, the owner should atleast have 90% of the company's share. This is not the case with Igate which has only 80.1% currently. But it can continue with delisting process as it is approved by the shareholders. The floor price for the delisting process is set at Rs. 288.90/- , which is the 26 day average of high and low price. The current market price is Rs. 374/-. As I said before, there is no ceiling price and one can bid at whatever price he likes! The price will be decided after the Reverse book building process and it is decided by the price quoted by majority of the people much similar to IPO book building. The management then decided to carry on or cancel the de-listing process at will after the exit price is known. If the exit price is approved, then that price will be the price at which the management buy back all the shares. If the price you quoted is greater than exit price then yours will not be bought by the comp

What does customer experience mean?

Customer experience is the experience of the customer from the period they came to know about the existence of the product until they finish using the product. For a hotel like Saravana Bhavan, the customer experience is from the point they came to know about its existence (the day they started) until they are associated with that particular customer (probably, forever for Saravana Bhavan but it depends on each of the customer). For a typical brokerage firm, it is all about how easy it is to open the account and the experience until the customer closes the account. For BSNL or Samsung, it is from when the customer gets to know about their products (the point when they want to buy it) until the time they stopped using it. Customer service is also part of it. Its all about the customer service, once the customer has become the owner of the product. Most of the times, I have seen, the Customer Experience is great until one procure the product or service and after that, because of t
