Hathway cable broadband review

Not sure on what reasons you rate it good. As per my experience from Bangalore Hathway; their executive promised me that, "Sir, you'll easily get 80% of mentioned speed". I said than why do you advertise it as 100%. He replied this is how it is.

Now at peak time (post office hours); it used to drop to 70% of promised speed. When contact the customer care; they said they do not rely on speedtest.net result and I should download some data from microsoft or apple website (WTF!!).

They are just a average ISP, good if you do not have any thing else. Otherwise ...

hathway's download speed in Mumbai has gone pathetic since last couple of months. They purposely reduce the speed to 128kbps - 256kbps on Saturday, Sunday and on public holidays. Even if you are using 5 mbps connection the speed still drops to 128kbps - 256kbps, which is not even broad band. Even after complaining they refuse to accept the problem. No such thing is mentioned in their fair usage policy that the speed will be reduced to 128kbps -256 kbps.

Even the daily speed is not consistent through out the day. hathway has wrong ethics. They purposely reduce speed to save on bandwidth is simply not acceptable. This is cheating.
 
Hi,
Would like to get feedback on the services of Hathway Broadband in Delhi. Have been a loyal Airtel user for over 9 year till they screwed me royally last week by changing my plan without informing me. Hathway is the next best option as thats the only major internet player in my area besides MTNL (which sucks BTW). So any feedback or advice is most welcome.

Thanks.
