kaeDee 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2007 Dear Kamaal, Is it TRUE that, in DUO there is a switch to change network (Tata to BSNL for eg..)... Whether changing the network is INSTANT or it takes some time...? If so how many minutes???? Whether the switch is for Outgoing call Network selection or for both In/OutGoing??? Is it possible to get Incoming call on both networks irrespective of SWITCH position??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anuragz 4 Report post Posted October 9, 2007 I cant believe that this samsung duo in not at all a dual connection handset. I even talked with online help to clerify my doubt, but i m still surprized that how come a company like samsung market a product promoting a feature it does not have. ???? Here is the chat i had with the representative.... Kavita: Welcome to Online Chat Support Kavita: How may I assist you? Kavita: Hi Anurag,How may I assist you? anurag: hi i wanted to know more about this dual phone. Kavita: Yes, please go ahead with your query. anurag: can it have both connection active at the same time ?? Kavita: I am sorry only one Sim Card can be active at a given time. However, you may call forward your inactive sim card to your active sim card. That way you will be physically accessible on both numbers. Kavita: You may select the sim card you want active at the time of phone start up. anurag: then why do u call it a dual phone ??? anurag: it can be better named as 2 sim carrier Kavita: you may call forward your inactive sim card to your active sim card. anurag: why should i pay for call forward when i am buying a dual connection phone ??? anurag: r u providing free call forwarding facility with this handset ??? Kavita: I am sorry,this information is not available with me Kavita: Its depends upon the service providers. anurag: well i tell u . No service provider even tata do not provide free call forwarding facility. anurag: if i fwd a call from one no. to another then i have to pay outgoing rate from that no. Kavita: I am sorry, this is a chat for Samsung CDMA phones only. Kavita: May I request you to kindly contact Tata Indicom Customer Care for your Query Kavita: Is there anything else I can assist you with? anurag: well i m sorry Kavita & i really dont intend to offend u. but i must tell u that this is the most foolish handset & marketting gimmick from samsung. anurag: I suggest u that u better read about another dual sim phone available in the market Spice D88 & compare its features. anurag: anyways thanks for ur time. anurag: Thanks Kavita: You are most welcome!
