Managing Airtel Services Through #MyAirtelApp

A Smartphone has become an absolute necessity for me. When my home network stops working, I’m completely clueless about what to do next-I feel like I’m marooned on a far away island. J

I rely on the mobile internet to keep me connected and updated about the news around the world as I hardly have time to sit and read the newspaper in the morning. And that’s why I need a reliable and good connectivity network that will work, no matter where I am. My husband uses a SIM from a service provider for many years now, and every time we go to Shimoga, his hometown, there’s so much problem with the connectivity that it’s impossible to get uninterrupted network within the house.

I have been using an Airtel SIM for almost as long as 12 years and I love the clear network connectivity I receive no matter where I travel. I also love the services they provide for their users. Recently I downloaded #MyAirtelApp on my phone and I must say that it has made my life much easier and simpler.

My Airtel app lets me manage all my Airtel products like my prepaid SIM connection, DTH, broadband anywhere, anytime through my Smartphone. This app can be downloaded on any Android or iOS phones through the Google play store or app store. The download takes only few minutes and after you have installed the app on the phone, it allows you to pay bills, recharge online, activate 3G on your prepaid/postpaid connection, get coupons on recharging, avail special offers, raise any requests/complaints and so much more.

So here are 3 features of this app that I love –

Recharging my prepaid mobile SIM and my broadband connection.

I have several SIMs and a broadband connection and it has become tedious to keep track of the balance on each of these connections and also the due date before which I need to pay the bills. But My Airtel app allows me to view the balance and validity information for all my Airtel products, including prepaid mobile and broadband connection, and allows recharging using my phone. This has lessened my headache of remembering the dates when I have to recharge and it has reduced my fear of my broadband connection failing due to low balance or validity period expiration. My Airtel app allows me to manage both my mobile SIM and broadband connections in one place and allows me to organize the bill payments.

Managing my 3G plans and usage of 3G data.

I use a lot of mobile internet for checking on emails, connecting on Facebook/Twitter, reading blog posts and commenting on other blogs. My Airtel app helps me to select a 3G plan that best suits my needs. I can recharge my 3G pack and also check on the usage details on the phone. And the best part is I can set an alert for my 3G usage so that every time I exceed the usage limit on my plan, I get a notification.

Managing my Airtel broadband connection

Now, anyone who has a broadband connection at home knows how tedious it is to pay broadband bills or keep a track on the usage of internet. But with the Airtel app, I can not only pay bills in an instant but also I can check on the detailed bill and view the payment history on my broadband. I can also view any outstanding bill amount on my account. And the best advantage of using the #MyAirtelApp is that I get special offers each time I shake my phone.

I have started using the Airtel app and managing my prepaid and broadband connections have become much easier and hassle-free. Have you downloaded the app? No? What are you waiting for? Go on, you can download it here- http://www.airtel.in/myairtelapp/

Kapil Dev's Ek Nayi League

Kapil Dev has been trending on Twitter ever since he announced his new league- #EkNayiLeague and he invited several celebrities from different fields to play in his new league. But in all the videos that were made to introduce his new league, he warned them not to play with their hearts because if they do, then they were sure to fail. But what is this new league that Kapil is talking about?

The suspense will soon unfold but for now, let’s guess as to what Kapil might be referring to.  Is it a new game show? And since Kapil Dev joined the twitter bandwagon just to announce the new league, it may be an online game show.

What is the secret behind the multiple warnings issued by Kapil Dev in his deep, baritone voice about not using your heart while playing in the league? It kind of hints that either this is going to be a show which has to be played using a lot of wit and brain power or this might be another one of those reality shows where celebrities are pitched against each other and where emotions and sentiments take a back seat. Kind of those Bigg Boss shows where the contestants have to be ruthless and manipulative to survive. Survival of the vilest!

In the Youtube videos, Kapil Dev invited several celebrities, including sportsperson and men from the entertainment business- M S Dhoni, Sania Mirza, Yuvraj Singh, Kapil Sharma, to come and play in his league. So does this mean that the list of contestants is going to be a mixed bag from different professional fields? It will definitely make things interesting.

Another guess of mine is it’s going to be a show involving people who have retired from their professions because in one of the videos Kapil Dev mentions about how when he retired from cricket, Dev Anand, the iconic film star, mentioned that “stars never retire”. Could this be a hint that the new league will have a lot of experienced veterans in their second innings of their life?

Well, the guessing game is definitely fun and I’m waiting impatiently for the suspense to be revealed. So here’s my final guess-

Ek Nayi League has to be a game show, something like Kaun Banega Crorepati, where the questions posed to the contestants will require a lot of intelligence and knowledge of general affairs to be answered correctly. The show may also combine trivia questions with a little bit of physical challenges where contestants have to compete against each other to survive. If participants use their heart when playing or show emotional weakness towards their opposition then they would have to forfeit the game. And you know what would make things more exciting? If the contestants are celebrities from different walks of life, working in various businesses coming together in a game show providing fun, information and lot of laughs.

I’m waiting with bated breath for Kapil’s Ek Nayi League to be launched, so that I can know if my guess was right. What do you think Ek Nayi League is going to be?

Smartphone Experience Redefined

      I have been waiting to buy a new smart phone from a long time. My current smart phone keeps on hanging every now and then, irritating me to no end. Also, the camera isn't really great, which denies me the pleasure of capturing beautiful moments of day to day life. While looking for a new smart phone, I asked my friends' help who suggested me ASUS ZenFone. I looked up a little and read about their upcoming phone ASUS ZenFone 2. And after reading the features of this new phone, I am completely sold. I have made up my mind. This is going to be my next phone and I'll be eagerly waiting for the launch of this phone. Here are a few reasons why:

1. RAM: It has 4 GB RAM, as opposed to the 512 MB RAM my current phone has. With this, most of my irritation about the phone crashing is going to disappear. I can just imagine how brilliant the speed will be. I get excited just by thinking about it.

2. Camera: It has a 13 MP front camera and 5 MP secondary camera. It might sound usual but wait till you hear all about it. The PixelMaster camera captures stunning, high-resolution photos with zero shutter lag. Not only this, but the industry-leading Low Loght mode employs pixel-merging technology to capture up to 400% brighter photos at night, or in low-light scenes, without the need for a flash.

3. Battery: The one thing which we lack in today's life is time. We are all busy running after things that time is a luxury most of us cannot afford. But ZenFone 2 has a solution for that too. With ASUS BoostMaster Technology, one can charge the phone super fast. The battery can be charged to 60% within 39 minutes. This is speed at its best. I can only imagine how much time it can save, from sticking near the charger point, waiting for the charging to be completed.

4. Dual Sim: Almost all phones have dual sim technology these days but what makes this one stand out is the dual active mode that it supports. If you are on a call on one Sim and you get a call on the other, then there is no need to miss it out because the dual active feature of ZenFone 2 switching between calls on different Sims with ease.

5. The Company: I believe in the company. I have seen my friends use ASUS ZenFones and FoneTabs and they have all given positive reviews about it. So I am sure that ZenFone 2 is just going to take this to another level.

So these and many more features have prompted me to wait for the new ASUS ZenFone 2, which sure is going to take the smart phone experience to a whole new level.

PS: This post is written for ASUS ZenFone 2.

Together We Can

For every girl marriage evokes mixed feelings in her heart-while she is happy and excited to be part of a new family, she is also sad to leave behind her own loved family members- her parents, siblings, grandparents, her cousins and her aunts and uncles. While some do understand the pain and anxiety of the new bride in this strenuous phase of her life and help her to adjust and cope, there are some who take pleasure in embarrassing her and making her feel awkward. The only person that the bride is most comfortable with and expects to be at her side is her husband. And it’s the husband’s responsibility to ensure that his wife does not feel ill at ease in her new home.

Mine was an arranged marriage and my husband has a large extended family. When people joked and said that it would take at least a year to get to know all the members of my in-law’s family, I could feel my apprehension growing. My own family is a small but well-knit one and I was not really proud of my nonexistent social skills. I’m what you’d call as an introvert but I decided to keep my best foot forward and make an effort to please my in-laws by getting along with all.

After my wedding I bid a tearful adieu to my family and started my journey towards my new home. I sat with my husband as all his relatives came and introduced themselves. I tried to remember their names and how they were related to my husband. There was this lady, who was a close relative and while everyone was being extra nice to me, this lady started making snide remarks. She kept taunting me with a smile on her face. I tried to ignore her remarks in the beginning but after a while it started getting on my nerves.

Next morning there was pooja arranged in my new home and unfortunately this lady volunteered to help me get ready.  She started insulting my family by remarking on the poor quality of my saris and jewellery. That’s when things went beyond my tolerance level and we exchanged few words. I was really hurt because I didn’t know what I had done to antagonize her. When I talked to my husband about it, he said not to worry about it and not to react back. I was really disappointed and upset because I had expected my husband to stand up for me. I was silent and withdrawn for the next few days and if people realized it, they did not comment.

After few days my husband and I had to visit my family to complete a wedding ritual. I was happy and eager to be welcomed back with open arms. When I saw my mother, I couldn’t control the tears that welled up in my eyes. I chatted with my cousins like we had been separated for years. My brothers recalled all the funny incidents of our childhood that helped me lighten up. I felt my worries giving away with laughter and the fun that I was having. It was a perfect day and with the love and warmth that I received from my family I felt my strength and resolve returning.

In the evening we all went to the beach where I had spent many of my childhood evenings. My mother pulled me aside and asked me how I was doing in my new home. I confessed about my predicament and explained the hurt I had felt when my husband hadn’t supported me. My mother then advised me that the key to a successful marriage was communication and mutual trust and respect. She explained that it was normal to feel awkward in the initial phases of marriage but with time I’d feel as comfortable with my husband’s family as I was with my own.

Her wise words put me at ease and I vowed to be patient and strong. That day I spent with my family remains etched in my memory because I realized the importance of love, support and acceptance. The day that I spent laughing and having fun relaxed me during a turbulent phase and made me understand that life is a bed of roses and thorns and the bad days are needed for us to appreciate the good moments.

Starting a New Life in a New Home - #StartANewLife

When I got married and moved to Bangalore, my husband and I shifted to a brand new home and though our first home was a rented one, we were terribly excited. I had so many ideas on how to decorate our house and the new items that we would purchase for our home. When we went shopping for furniture and electronic gadgets I was like a kid in a candy store. There were so many options to choose from and I liked all of them.

But soon I realized that staying in a rented place comes with its own share of disappointments. Of course you are not burdened with a hefty EMI, you have to just hand over the rent each month and forget about it. No matter how much I renovated our house and tried to mark it with my individual taste and creativity, at the end of the day the fact that the house is not mine always crawled into my thoughts. And there were restrictions- I couldn’t choose the paint, I couldn’t hammer the nails to hang the photos, I couldn’t add any additional furnishings other than what was provided by our owners.

Then in just one and half year, we decided to undertake a huge financial risk by taking a home loan and buying our own piece of heaven. We settled on the 4^th floor 2BHK house in the apartment at V B Layout. Honestly I fell in love with the area as soon as I saw it and after living for 4 years I still vouch for it as it's one of the best residential areas. It has parks, schools, restaurants, shopping malls and movie complexes all within short distance. It even has a library- JustBooks within walking distance. My husband thinks that it was the last point which clinched the deal for me J

We were worried about the home loan and the number of years it would take to pay back the loan but we knew in the long run it was a good investment. So after heavy discussions we decided to take the plunge and buy our flat.

The day of GrahaPravesh

I was super excited and almost every weekend I insisted on driving to our apartment and inspecting the progress, all though our floor was still in initial stages of development. We decided on the woodwork-the wardrobes, the TV unit and the kitchen cabinets. A few months after we booked our flat my husband and I got the biggest news of our lives.

I was pregnant!

The realization that we would be starting our new life in the new home along with our baby was the icing on the cake. We had to change our plans a little bit and the second bedroom was now converted into a nursery/ guest bedroom. We shifted to our home in November 2011, when I was 9 months pregnant and my daughter was born in March.

I love my house because it’s a place where I can just be, I can relax and unwind after a tiring day. The feeling of coming back home after visiting my mother’s place or my in-law’s place is one of pure joy and delight. Unlike my husband, I can spend days in my house as long as I’m provided with good books and endless supply of tea.

My favorite corner of my house is my bookshelf that I bought last year. I love turning my eyes towards it every now and then and admiring the rows of books that stand proudly on the shelf.

My precious bookshelf

Our new life in our home has brought so much joy and happiness and even though our EMI cuts into our monthly expenses it’s totally worth it. I think the decision to buy my own home was the best decision I have taken in my life.

The Journey Of A Single Woman

Everybody has an inspirational role model in their life; someone who inspires them to do better, a person who they look up to and wish that they could be more like them. For me, that person is my mother. I have blogged so many times about how my mother started working after my father’s death and raised me and my brothers. It was not an easy task but she stood tall during tough times and today all three of her children are well settled. I owe a lot to my mother who strived hard to provide the best possible education to me. She made sure that I realized the importance of financial independence for women, citing her own example.

Yet there were times when I felt that had my father been there for me, I would have faced less unpleasant incidents. Growing up, I realized on more than one occasion, that some men in our society think that just because a woman is without her husband/father/son she is vulnerable and easy prey and such men consider women as the weaker sex and without a male beside her she is fair game.

I remember this incident that happened when I was studying in 11^th. My brother and I were preparing for our exams in our home, when my mother returned from her bank in the afternoon with a visitor. She said that the gentleman with her was my father’s best friend when we were living in Bangalore and he was also a professor in college. He was visiting Mangalore for official purposes and he had some work in evening. Till then he would rest at our home. He seemed to be a jovial man and reminisced about the good times he had shared with my dad. He also offered to help me with my Mathematics syllabus since he was a professor on the same subject.

After my mother went back to her work he sat down with me to assist me in my studies. But he had a different agenda on his mind. Soon his stray hands and greedy eyes made his intentions clear to me. The fact that he was my father’s best friend and yet he could molest me in my own home, in my brother’s presence was inconceivable to me. My mind filled with red rage and while I was still trying to process the horrific happenings, my brother grabbed the man’s collar and kicked him out of our house, throwing some punches in between.

That one incident shattered my confidence and broke my self-esteem. My adolescent mind was grappling with the truth that if a man who claimed to be my father’s friend was capable of such appalling behavior then how I would survive in the outside world that was probably filled with more such men.  Isn’t it safer to marry and become a housewife than work in a hostile environment where women are perceived for their physical statistics or considered to be mere eye-candy? I was very confused, angry and depressed.

It was my mother who helped me deal with this incident by assuring me that not all men look upon women as sexual objects. She gave me examples of the men working in her bank who considered her as their peer, men who worked along with her and supported in her journey as a single working mother. I looked at my own brothers and friends who respected women and believed that women should be given equal opportunities in all professional fields.

Slowly my self esteem grew and I looked back on this unpleasant incident as something that happened with an uneducated and unscrupulous man. With my mother’s guidance I understood that I or the absence of father figure in my life was not a reason for what had occurred. Had my mother not discussed with me and instead chose to ignore the matter, then I wouldn’t have gained my confidence back to complete my Engineering degree and mould my moderately successful career in IT.

And though I still come across such men like my father’s “friend” every now and then, I know that raising my voice and fighting back for my dignity will shame them and put them back in their rightful place.

Let Nothing Hold You Back #BefikarUmarBhar

An incident that occurred recently in my life made me realize how fickle life is and how we run behind inconsequential things all our life. We ignore our family members for the pursuit of finer pleasures, let petty fights ruin cherished relationships, let our ego get bigger than us. We miss out on the fun of living life because we want to have a perfect high salary job, we want to secure an apartment in the tallest building of the city, we want our kids to have the best education possible, and we want to dine in the most upscale restaurants. But don’t you think that in the race of providing the best for us and our family, we are missing out on life’s sublime happiness.

I don’t remember when was the last time I stopped for a while and bent to admire the flowers in my garden or when I picked up the phone and called all my friends and talked to them for hours, just like we used to do when we were in college. Sometimes I wished that I had a pause button in life, so that I could freeze time and relax and enjoy my life. I try to console myself saying that this is the phase of my life where I should work, earn and make a comfortable nest of savings, so that 10 to 15 years down the line I can retire peacefully and be financially independent to do whatever my heart desires. But then again, who has seen tomorrow? What if I die today? Wouldn't I repent not doing things that I have always wished to do?

What if someone told me that I had no constraints to hold me back? What would I do? What if someone assured me that my family’s future is financially secure? Would I follow my heart and tick off some of the items on my bucket list? Of course, I would!

I would jump at this chance because it’s what I always dreamed of- the freedom to live my life as per my wishes and not be dictated by a schedule that is forced down by a corporate that doesn’t understand the need for my balance in professional and personal life.

So here are the 5 things from my bucket list that I would strike off if I was given the chance to live my life #BefikarUmarBhar

Travel solo- This year I have decided to travel alone. I would love to travel through the beaches in Goa and the backwaters of Kerala and if money is not an issue, I would also love to go to exotic locations. The freedom to plan my itinerary and visit all the places that I wish is like a dream come true. It would be a glorious vacation, I’m sure.

Open a bookstore- The choice of my profession was influenced by the amount of money that I could save after paying off all the bills and the monthly installments. My contentment in my job was never a factor in the decision. But now I realize that if could, I’d have turned back time and gone back to choose what I wanted.  I want to open a bookstore where the walls would be filled with bookshelves cramped with books. People could wander around, select a book that they like, put up their feet, order their coffee and have an uninterrupted time reading their favorite authors. For people like me such a place would be a paradise.

Take my mother and my mother-in-law on a vacation- These are two women I admire the most because of the way they have selflessly lived their lives. And I cannot find women who deserve a vacation more than them. I would love to take them abroad, to cities that they would have never heard of, to send them to spas where they can relax with rejuvenating massages and take them shopping and pamper them.

Write a full length novel- I don’t have the required discipline or the dedication to sit down for long periods and write a full length novel. I do write short stories because it takes lesser time but I wish that one day I’d write a novel and it gets published and that it becomes a best seller. Seeing my name and my work of words in print gives me an exhilarating feeling that I cannot describe. Of course since I don’t have to worry about going to work and earning, I can use all my free time in writing.

Meet J K Rowling- I haven’t been this fascinated by a writer since a long time. I love Harry Potter series and recently I have been captivated by her novels in the Crime and Thrillers genre. I would love to meet J K Rowling and maybe get inspired by her thoughts. I hoped and prayed that she would come to Bangalore soon, but since I don’t see it happening in the near future, maybe I can meet in her own country. Wouldn’t it be awesome to hear the inside scoop of Hogwarts life from the creator herself?

All my life I have worked hard to build a better and financially secure future for me and my family. But somewhere along the meticulous planning and the daily grind of everyday life I have forgotten to enjoy the present. It is time to live in the present and enjoy what life has to offer because there is no better time like now.

My Valentine This Season- Asus ZenFone

All through my adolescent years February 14 was a day that I loved and hated with equal fervor.  I longed to have a boyfriend who would make me feel special on this day, who would take me out for a dinner and pamper me, a man who would tell me how grateful he was to have me in his life. But alas, that day and that kind of man never came into my life. I consoled myself with the fact that I would celebrate this day of love after my marriage. If not boyfriend then my husband would be the perfect Valentine who would whisk me off into the moonlit night and confess his deep and unconditional love for me.

So you can imagine my horror when on the first Valentine’s Day after my marriage, I asked my husband what special plans he had schemed for me and he replied nonchalantly that he did not believe in Valentine’s Day. He said it was a culture from West that we Indians had blindly adopted. My heart broke into million pieces and I secretly thought that this was just his ploy to escape from the expenditure he had to incur on this day.

It took me 5 years of being married and 5 Valentine’s days of moping and looking morose to realize that I did not need someone else to make me feel cherished. My husband argued that he didn’t require one special day to love me and that he loved me all 365 days of the year. While it is true that one does not require a day from the calendar to profess one’s love for his/her partner, amidst the hectic and busy lifestyle that we lead, we often forget to demonstrate our affections for our loved ones. That one affectionate touch, that one love-filled look, that one earth-shattering kiss, that one reassuring hug is somewhere lost in the life fraught with stress.

This year, on Valentine’s Day, I decided that I have had enough of waiting for others to pamper me. Before expecting others to love me, I have to love myself, unconditionally, accepting my faults and my shortcomings. I decided to pamper myself. I took some time off to relax and rejuvenate in a spa and seeing that, like every year, my husband forgot to gift me, I decided to gift myself a sleek and ultra-stylish Asus ZenFone.

 After going through the loaded features of this smart phone, I realized that it was the perfect Valentine for me. When I have Asus ZenFone beside me, I am sure to receive the unconditional love that I have always craved for on Valentine’s Day. And here are some of the awesome feature of this phone that made me go gaga over it-

Consistent incredible performance- I have lost count of the number of times when my husband took me out for dinner and instead of having a conversation with me he’d be busy with office calls, completely ignoring me. When he realized that I am annoyed he’d try to amend and make up for his fault. But with Asus ZenFone, I’m sure to receive its undivided and impressive performance each time I use it. With an Intel Atom 2520 processor, the phone promises to deliver best performance and super efficiency without compromising on the battery life.

Simplicity – I’ve heard so many times, my friends mentioning about a superb date with a guy who they thought to be perfect and then at the end of date the guy promised to call. My friends would wait near their phones for the next few days, waiting for the call that never came. Dating guys is a complex game of waiting and watching.  But operating an Asus ZenFone is child’s play. It uses intelligence technology that makes my life so much easier and simple. I can do multi-tasking with my eyes closed. It’s that easy!

Reliability and long lasting relationship- A relationship with a guy is fickle. I never know when my man may lose his interest in me and in this competitive, faithless world I have to strive hard to keep myself fit, dress smartly and present myself with confidence. But an Asus ZenFone is reliable and I know that its battery will never give up on me. Its energy efficient processor allows me to talk, watch videos or listen to music without having to worry about low battery.

Flexibility and compatibility to adjust with my moods- Guys always complain about their girlfriend’s volatile moods and they often chalk it up to PMS. But we girls have so much pressure and responsibilities to bear on our petite shoulders.  We just want our partners to understand us and stand beside us when we are upset. And that’s what Asus ZenFone does! With interchangeable phone cases with multi-colored options, I can personalize my phone to suit my mood and personality.

Sleek stylish and ultra-sensitive responsive- No longer do I have to worry about my husband’s dismal taste in personal fashion or cringe when I see him in his khakis for a formal dinner. Because I have my sleek and stylish phone to flaunt. With a superior design that is sure to create awe, I will be the proud owner of Asus ZenFone. If you have it, flaunt it!

So all men and women who take their partners for granted this Valentine’s Day, you better be warned. You have competition in the stunning Asus ZenFone.

Selling Buying Made Hassle Free With Quikr Nxt

Almost a year back, when my daughter started walking steadily, I decided to sell her buggy since she had outgrown its use and it was eating up precious space in our apartment. Instead of throwing it, I wanted to sell it so that someone else could utilize it and since my daughter started walking very early, the stroller was hardly used and practically new.

I uploaded the ad in Quikr from my office in the morning, and by afternoon I had already received a couple of calls. But the calls came at unsuitable timings, like when I was in a meeting or when I was talking to my manager. And since I did not want to miss out talking to a potential buyer, I had to excuse myself many times to receive the call, causing frowns and raising of eyebrows on the face of my manager.

Despite reasonably quoting the price of the stroller on the website, I received many calls from people asking if I could lower the price. So these phone calls did not result in a successful transaction. How I wished that I could just chat with people instead of talking to a buyer over a call. Also I was not very comfortable giving my phone number in a website that was accessible to anyone. I’m not paranoid, but sometimes people call just because they are lonely and they want to speak to someone!

Well, my wish did come true, albeit a year later in the form of Quikr Nxt. Quikr Nxt is a feature that was launched by Quikr early this year, and it allows users to chat using Quikr website or mobile app. This means that users can opt to hide their confidential information when posting a listing. Also, one can avoid calls at inopportune moments. This definitely makes the whole buying/selling process smooth and hassle free.  

So here are 3 reasons why I would prefer to transact over chat using Quikr Nxt feature rather than calls-

1. A log record of the entire conversation means I don’t have to remember which buyer quoted how much price for a product. When there are many buyers quoting different prices, it becomes cumbersome to remember the details of a conversation in a call. But when I am chatting with a potential buyer, I don’t have to depend on my memory to recall the details, I can just look at chat history.
2. Provide more details without having to explain in words. When I put up the ad for the stroller I posted few photos, but there were few people who wanted more details, like the exact color, or if there was a basket to keep the child’s necessities or if there was a safety belt to protect the child from falling. It was irritating to answer the same queries from multiple callers. Now I can just click photos and send it via chat to users. It saves time and energy, not to mention avoiding confusions over product features. It becomes really useful when you are selling products like car or electronic gadgets.
3. The biggest advantage is I can respond to the queries of a buyer at my own convenient time. I don’t have to worry about missing out on a call with a potential buyer because I’m in a meeting or my phone is not along with me. I don’t have to be worried of a call interrupting a date or an important conversation with a family member. Nobody likes it when a person abruptly cuts a conversation short and walks off to receive a call. Now I can chat using Quikr Nxt whenever I have free time on my hands. This definitely is a handy feature to have for a working professional.

Thanks to Quikr Nxt buying/selling a product has become much easier and hassle-free.
