I don't know much about MTNL but i think they have a UL plan for 950/- which was earlier 1399/- . I just read it somewhere , don't know much abt it.

MTNL Mumbai don't even know if such a plan exists. I had emailed them asking if it will be available anytime soon. But, they replied that they will get back if such a plan is started. I again emailed them yesterday asking if 1 mbps unlimited plans are going to be introduced. They gave me their phone no. and asked to call there. Not much hopes of getting any answer there.

I am facing the most awkward situation
I am on Rs 500 home plan.
I applied for 900UL plus on 12th Dec. There is no news abt speed upgradation of UL plans. Can anybody tell whether this plan change would be counter productive?
Considering that 500 home plan is surely going to be upgraded to 2 GB night unlimited 1 mbps plan.

Are the pre-exisitng modems (that all the customers have) capable of working at 1 or 2 mbps ?

ya cyberzook this might be the case, always try review the situation with all BSNL plans...look in for a couple of mnths then make ur decision

The DATA caps are still lower. Someone please explain this ---- If you pay 900 bucks and get 2 mbps unlimited, why would anyone pay 1000 and be limited to 5 GB of adta.

Actually in my opinion, the service of bsnl is good.

I live in chennai and i am on 900 UL. i get download speeds at abt 300kbps(36-37 KB/S). But the upload speeds are pathetic(6-10 KB/S).

I think bsnl has the capacity to upgrade all its users to 2 mbps, provided they update their software and equipment.
