maybe you have a point but gving a connection is a lot more than extending the cable to ur home right ? they need support infrastructure / bandwidth etc to be resolved. their priority also depnds on number of users that they can get in a particular area for them to invest in setting up that infra.
ever since BSES Powersurfer ( now reliance ) started serivce their cable used to pass thru place outside my bldg but they have never given us a connection coz its very costly for them to set it up for a handful of users.
if airtel is smart enough and u get them enough interested ppl in ur area maybe they can expedite the process

Wait right there Mr.
I CONSIDER THIS RUDE
There is a difference between Powersurfer which is
just an ISP and Airtel which is a Telco. You must be knowing Airtel uses DSL. So in reality, internet is just a "side effect" of their telephone line :P. While powersurfer exclusively provides internet access. There is a difference. Besides, airtel being such a big telco cannot make excuses like its costly and such.
well its their service ... they donot want to provide any particular region / bldg / individual service then its their problem . they are losing money and customer loyal and all the other crap ... they are not monopolistic that you are crying like a baby . . if they donot have their billing system in place then its better not to give service.
you have so many choices like mtnl dsl , reliance watever , sify and rest of the world.
My friend is in a even worse condition. They have wired up their building but are refusing to provide anybody a connection because they haven't setup their billing system :P
Airtel sucks bigtime! >:)
