Thread: BSNL Broadband Fair Usage Policy on New Plans

most people are too lazy to do that

when i moved to gurgaon from chandigarh, the first priority for the place to rent was availability of airtel broadband.

sure i will put a case on BSNL thats for sure ........... if they implement Fair Usage Policy ......... or remove the name Unlimited plans for Fair Usage Policy plan's .........

Guys, it's confirmed. Today in afternoon I called my local exchange, JTO informed me that all users are being transferred to new plans. Not will be, are. As in, right now even as we speak. He didn't specify any dates when this 'automigration' will be complete. My big fear is they will quietly migrate us Home 500 and other users who have 'night unlimited' to new plans, and then people will get shocked with huge bills.

Hope they implement change from next month, I certainly cannot pay the bill for this month with new rates. I got quite angry and asked him why they were taking such backward step. He counters that sirji we are totally helpless, order comes from 'Dilli' onlee. GOI in its infinite wisom has decided to focus on rural broadband (votebank) penetration, and as there are bottlenecks in both domestic infrastructure and international gateway, usage will now be more strictly metered!

I mean, any other country would lay more fibre and make domestic colocation cheaper to counter saturation of international gateway. But this is India. Crazy ******* sarkari babus. They are 'diverting' bandwidth to नेताजीs favourite villages where the villagers will also get computers subsidized by us taxpayers, all to meet some stupid target that all villages must have broadband. How long before there is some special broadband quota for SC/ST/OBC?

Sir/Mam

Please go to BSNL Portal and view for yourself a notice on how plans are being renamed (written in typical babu English).

The process of change has started, we poor users just don't know when it will be complete. Say goodbye to night unlimited. Metered usage for all users is the new reality.
