Well as everyone knows 1rs every call plan by airtel with shahrukh ad....

Now i have a doubt..i had this plan but daily 1.5 rupees is deducted frm my account...

Now on reading from airtel site it mentions

All existing 999 Lifetime and ELTV subscribers would automatically get Re 1 tariff from 9 th Nov' 07 onwards, without any additional charge

so does it mean my plan will automatically get deactivated and ill get it at same cost???

I activated Rs.1/local call scheme on my lifetime card 2 mnths ago by recharging with Rs.294.I got Rs.50 talktime & the rest where for providing 1 year Rs.1/local call.
Now i think i should have waited a bit.

What would be the talktime on subsequent recharges done on SLTV?

Sir/Ma'am, Talktime on SLTV would be calculated as under:
MRP – Service tax of Rs.12.36%, Less Processing fee as applicable on the recharged MRP for e.g. MRP of Rs.100 with Rs 5 processing fee would have talktime of Rs.83.99.
Airtel would not charge any processing fee on recharges for the first _90_ days from the date of launch after which processing fee will be deductible on talktime top up recharges as applicable.
what you think friends about this new offer???
they will now charges processing fee on top-up also :mad:

B************* ****** ***, well i spent 999 bucks for this plan so that i get atleast full talktime on recharges . Now airtel says that you have to spend at least 200 bucks in 180 days otherwise your lifetime validity wud go crap . And also i have to pay processing charge on this plan.

That's why they had a ad blitz on call tariff changes for nearly a month or so.

the charge on top up..for 60 topup u get 53 i guess ..so its not new i guess..m i right???

see, in top up 60, you get (Rs.60- service tax)= around Rs.53
but here they telling that they will charge both service tax and processing fee, till now processing fee is not charging on top-up, dont know how much they will charge as processing fee.....

i have Rs.999 airtel lifetime, which means i was in a scheme where i have to make or receive a call in 180 days to keep my SIM active, but with new scheme mujhe minimum Rs.200 recharge karna hoga to keep active my SIM :mad:

Then it's of no use if they are charging processing fee.
What is lifetime if you get only Rs.50 when you recharge of Rs.200.

You will get the talktime which normal subscribers get.(Those who don't have lifetime)
i.e You will get the amount after cutting service tax & processing fee.

i dont think so than ppl will use the lifetime plan..if this is the case.....for 200 topup 50 talktime..than it makes sense to go with postpaid.....

edit just found this forgot to check in tech masti post

and i used to get same stuff earlier also 83 for 100...so processing charge is there but not that much as earlier.....Also if they charge like hell jus for a rupee call and cut 150 as processing fee for 200 recharge any dumb will also get brain to convert to corporate 199 plan..in which he gets free itemised bill plus 200 local sms and calls free and all calls and sms at 50 paise later
