I live in hanumanth nagar near BMS college, damn. Is it available ? I am considering to **** to Airtel.

You would probably have feasibility in your area unless your house is terribly isolated. Even then the airtel guys are ready to dig up roads and give new connections (as it happened in my case)..
Anyways, instead of calling up airtel, go to your nearest airtel office and tell them "new connection", the guy'll be at your doorstep within hours..

btw..
shifted to Turbo 1299 plan now geting this :

Good, will see and try to find out the Airtel Office in this area.

Can you tell me more about the 499 Rs goodies ? What are all the goodies.
I am interested in the amount of free calls or free talk time.

 

[sam_1710]

1. You get Rs. 100 worth free calls (with Re. 1 a call it means 100 free calls)
2. There's also Rs.100 worth Speed on Demand : 1mbps = Rs.50/hr and 2mbps = Rs.75/hr
3. Rs.100 worth PC Secure.. They install an airtel version of F-Secure's antivirus..
4. Rs. 199 worth GamesonDemand.. from indiagames.com.. You can download games from the site and play them.

btw.. The PC Secure is crap .. Please continue using your existing Anti-virus..

Alright, then going for 1099 for now. Later might go for a change.

How is the INDIAGAMES.COM thing ? you play online in there?

 

[sam_1710]

Well... most of the games there are pretty old (some flash games too ), so that they work on almost all PCs..
Since its free I joined..

*god.indiagames.com/premium/main/titlesList.jsp?Category=All
check it out.. these are the available games..

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

but still some are good !! and multi player should be fun !! any game!!

 

[sam_1710]

I downloaded crashday today and it was fine .. except that the movie at the start of the game came inverted.. The game was good..
Have to try some multiplayer game though..

for plan change, do I call them or will have to visit their office? how long will it take?

 

[sam_1710]

Plan change can be done either by calling the cc or mailing them.. they tell it takes 3days.. For me it took 1.5 days ..

^^
I have 15gb limit now and I will be shifting to UL (turbo 1299). Its total UL na or they got FUP? Also after the plan is changed, I will be able to download 987404 GB in this month only na, or from next month?

 

[sam_1710]

There is FUP .. 100GB limit.. It applies only for the data used during the 512kbps speed (mornings).. Nights when it is 1mbps its unlimited..
btw.. You can get your plan change immediately or from the next billing cycle.. Its your wish!

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

It seems no network and feasibility in my area. So no Airtel BB connection for me.

 

[sam_1710]

Did you call the guys from airtel office??

 

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

Airtel office ?
I call this number always.

080-44444121

 

[sam_1710]

Ok.. Try this number also : 18001030121
The sales persons will reach back to you in 1 week or so..

 

[Chirag]

Ok got my plan changed to an unlimited one from 15gb limit. So for the rest of the month, I won't be charger, right? Would they goof up like bsnl?

 

[sam_1710]

Call 121 and get the plan change confirmed.. And start downloading. As simple as that!!

 

[Chirag]

^^
Its confirmed. But then just worried if they goof-up like BSNL.

 

[sam_1710]

Need not worry at alll.. They provide quality service..
