Buying a mobile phone connection

This was the first thing myself and +Chuck Croll was discussing. We named it "Country Talks."
In India, buying a mobile phone connection :-
SIM Card
  • We go to Mobile Instrument Selling Store and buy an instrument.
  • We go to Service Provider's store or to agent's store who has rights to provide a SIM Card connection.
  • Here, we should fill out the form they give with a "Passport Size Photograph" and an Address/ID proof.
  • Payment plans differ from service provider to service provider.
  • So, we pay according to our plan. It also depends how we pay a cellphone connection.
  • They give us a SIM Card with a 10 digit Number. It may be activated withing some half an hour. 
Here foreigner differs from Indian during address proof submission only.

So, they filled petrol for 500 already. Now they fill until 1000 from 500 and so totally you've been filled just for 1000. Now isn't that a theft? How do we overcome this? By fighting about what they did? You're never going to get the money back. Cause you can't prove it. Prevention is better than cure if y...
