Service of so called NOKIA CARE is worst. NOKIA should look into it very seriously. People is loosing confidence due to poor service of Nokia Care centers. Nokia should open service centers of their own. Not dealership.ths 135

hey shayari :)

Nokia had several contractors and sub-contractors that handle customer care, it might be that the one who handled yours were not directly from the company itself so they don't care much. So far I'm very impress with the way our local Nokia Care is handling concerns here in my place.
