Yes. It is the EDGE Service. Airtel charges Rs.375pm here in Chennai for MO whereas Dad is paying only Rs.199pm in his CellOne connection. Now the speeds have gone down considerably low in Airtel with even 'E' on the phone meaning on EDGE networks. BSNL also has upgraded its networks at least in metros to EDGE networks and the speed is far far better now. I am going to change to CellOne from the following month. Why pay 175 extra for slower service?
