Well there is a new Aircel store opened way back to my house, so out of curiosity I got myself a card (Rs 99, life time prepaid).
Some colleagues at work have got a post-paid and a pre-paid connection respectively so I knew the current condition of the network, I got this card albeit knowing this because the other ingredient that I mentioned earlier was stronger.
Now the horror starts.
I have a Sony Ericsson cell the W910i at my office the connection does not work at all, which would not be much of news to all but when it comes to peculiarity I will win hands down , atleast here.
Enter the scenario, 3 people standing outside the office.
Guy 1 – Aircell Post-Paid, Cell being Motorola Rockr E-6 the network = Full, Guy 2 – Aircell Pre-Paid, Cell Samsung (Double Speaker Model) the network = Full
Guy 3 (me) – Aircell Pre-Paid, Cell Sony Ericsson W910i the network = Emergency calls only
We tried swapping Sims, mine apparently works in a Samsung, Motorola but fails to work in a Nokia and of-course a Sony Ericsson.
My mom has a Samsung tried in it and the network worked like a charm, dad’s Sony Ericsson failed to spark a charm. As mentioned before in a friends Nokia  the network failed.
I wonder if Aircel is Brand Specific Lol!
