Airtel's new plans

[Devan232]

From Broadband forum-

yea..those last two plans doesn't make sense. So i called the number given and one guy said they're TOTALLY FUP free and its available only to Hyd to counter beam!

BUt with torrent throttling and file sharing websites being blocked whenever there's a new movie release ..i wonder who would take AIrtel!

A friend of mine has airtel and he said he'll be changing to the above mentioned plans...

IMO 4mbps unlimited is better than 10mbps for 40GB and then 2 mbps . . ( BUt i haven't been FUP'es by beam till now..close to 100GB downloaded this month)

According to this topic, these plans are only available to Hyderabad users due to the Beam Effect

i would really love to have this 899 plan coz current plan of mine is being capped at 5gb which is a complete waste as im used to downloading a lot. Planning to shift to reliance as i heard they dont have any FUP on 1mbps plan.

All Airtel plans are now capped to 256k after FUP. Major PITA.

Complained on their Facebook page. Rep called and said he will pass the feedback to management. Hope they introduce some plans with 512k post-FUP speed.

^ That was the case for months/years right?

AFAIK they pulled that smart move to keep in line with TRAIs broadband spec which states that 256K is considered broadband.

Now that TRAI has bumped it up to 512K, they will have to bump up post-FUP speeds to 512K soon.

I thought these new plans were supposed to have 512K post-FUP speeds?

Not until New Telecom Policy 2011 is accepted by standing committee.. Then also it would take another 2-3 months when TRAI would send notices to ISP's that now they have to provide 512kbps min..

It Seems these plans are Available Now. 2Mbps till 20Gb and then 512Kbps @ 799 not at all a bad Deal.

 

[prakhar]

The above mentioned plan is not applicable in DELHI NCR region.

Ok sorry to hear this, I have a Friend in Hyderabad who was upgraded to these new plans. I hope these plans are not Restricted to Hyderabad.:no:

[iknowledge]

Cos There is No Isp in that city To bankrupt them. In hyderabad, they are having a bad time due to 10Mbps of beam for 1000.

 

[JuGGa]

WTH?

2Mbps - 30GB Cap - For only 899?

I pay 1299 before taxes. :|

Oddly enough, they haven't used the word *unlimited* anywhere, leaving a reason for doubt.

Same here But worse with 20GB FUP, not even 30 :'(

Airtel Suks
