Airtel Sudden Reaction!

[maninder4k]

I have been using Airtel Broadband since 2007 & According to my plan Airtel is providing 512K Plan Uptill 5GB & then speed decline to 64K Plan But this never actually happened. I always download more than 15Gb per month & My PC remain on for all of the month day & night due to downloading in progress but recently Airtel actually decreased the speed. And when I try to contact them they have no Answer about this sudden change?

They are throttling P2P. You cannot do anything.

 

[maninder4k]

Yah! That's Sad but they have done one thing i.e. increased the plan....
Now I got 1MB plan for first 5Gb & then after speed is about 256K but this is also slow for me who loves Internet

A lot of users had a free run. Even I had never faced FUP but slowly everyone gets affected. I started seeing FUP 7 months after my connection.

There is nothing that can be done.

My Ex-Boss always said this "Its your headache " (He did make the smiley face, except for the red eyes)

According to my friend who uses Airtel's broadband from last 5 years, Airtel changed some policies recently. Now a customer have to pay even the cost of cables if it's found damaged in case of a complaint!

I think it's safe to say now.. Airtel sucks!

Fortunately, I have MTNL! True Aazadi!

That's Bad Airtel
I know that Airtel Now days getting crazy but Airtel is a Trustworthy & Secure service as They always come in time when I call them and always give good offers in case of when we say them we don't want your connection now .....
Maybe Airtel will reform later on!

Airtel has so much demand in our area that they will just DC and find another taker in the same hour. I told the same to my friends to squeeze a 4mbps conn out of them, but looks like Airtel has the upper hand here.

Airtel is Not Providing the 4MB Plan Even Me & My friends are Giving them 50 New Connections in our Area! It's Really Difficult to Squeeze 4MB Plans out of them

I dint get this.
Btw Airtel has upgraded The FUP for many plan i feel.Not in the website though.
I pay around 550 a month
1 mbps speed before FUP was 5 gb
Now it is 25 gb.
Hope this is not a mistake by Airtel

when did it happen, I am still paying 800 with tax for 512 till 10 GB and after that 256Kbps but from last few months I get 2 MBPS till 10GB, still it is less


It is cheating ....

 

[s18000rpm]

They might soon increase check it this month if they increased.
But still after crossing 25 gig is a Horror 256 kbps

 

[gopi_vbboy]

airtel bb quality is good but very strict on fup...bsnl has still flaw ...i am getting 4mbps ul still even after 8gb sometimes...but the connection stability is bad damn.

 

[maninder4k]

Yah! My friend is saying to me that now it's 25 GB? I have to contact Airtel for that...

Since January I am getting 2 Mbps on my 512 connection but with same stupid 10GB FUP

They might soon increase check it this month if they increased.

Nope, I cover my FUP in less then 2 Days. It's long 28 Days of So called broadband 256Kbps. which is not even enough to browse internet without frustration.. IMO minimum 512 is needed to surf present sites.
