Since One Year I am using Jio Fibre, I am not happy with speed. Thinking to switch to Airtel 499 Plan.
Jio Gives 1000gb / Month
What is total Data per month with Airtel 499 Plan ?

All of Airtel's unlimited plans have an FUP of 3.3 TB, including the 499 plan.
 
AFAIK it's 3300GB for both Jio and Airtel Fiber plans.

Are you using Jio AirFiber? The speeds and latency on it is pretty bad. The FUP is 1000GB.

Any actual fiber connection will be a massive improvement over "AirFiber".
 
I have airtel fibre 3.3tb fup but with their combined (200mb + 4 postpaid connections) black plan for years. I've had very little downtime/niggles. Problems have been solved professionally and quickly. Overall, very happy with it. Location is Delhi - 54

Had excitel before this, which was cheaper but a nightmare in comparison.

I have been using Airtel Black with DTH too. Been quite satisfied with their services. On my 200mbps plan I'd easily get ~400mbps on Google servers.

The only "issue" I had was my speeds over LAN would reduce to 100mbps every few days until I rebooted my router. I tried everything from crimping new cables to changing my switch, it only temporarily fixed the issue. After complaining to Airtel to change my router, the engineer came over and said the RJ45 connector was faulty, I rejected his assertion since I had already tried to change it a few times. BUT, as it happens to be, I was using old RJ45 connectors and there was some oxidation on the contact points. Thankfully I had a new one and he changed it for me (crimping Cat6 is very tricky, you need to get ALL contact points properly crimped) and voila! It has been working fine since then.

So yeah, big ups to Airtel. Plus with Airtel Black you get priority customer service.

As for Jio, never heard anything good about them.

Airtel is good until you need to reach out their pathetic customer care.

it makes no seance switching from jio to airtel. both same service quality. .. you will be in mercy of you local engineering. but BSNL engineer will provide you prompt services in this case - just offer them some tea/coffee when they visit & they will provide you 10x service quality then jio/craptel, throughout.

if you need real "upgrade" move to tata play fiber.
I think jio fiber also gives fup 3300 gb per month
yes 3.3Tb is default FUP across ISP.
but i heard its being reduced to 2TB now (started by airtel).
