Airtel Broadband “Fair Usage Policy” Protest Petition

They dont even keep up those limit, just do keep on checking the usage. Mine is 50 GB limit and they reduce the speed even on 40-45GB usage and they don't believe that they are wrong..

Hail Airtel.!!

OMG im getting 8 gb on 512 , which can b used in 4 or 5 days n than for the rest of the month 256 .. this is crap

Gonna get mntl now airtel sucks now

is there any service provider instead of BSNL who hasn't imposed these limits.. if yes.. then please publish and let people know..

Airtel started to cheat its customer's. Very worst in customer service. Airtel bothers only about profit and not about its customers. I dont know who is the stupid idiotic who came up with this option.

i am changing my isp

hi ur limits are way too high the limits provided on the site are 15 gb 25 gb etc update it

Government or let's say TRAI has regulation that speeds offered cannot go below 256kbps.

Most fair use policies on unlimited plans state that thruput may be reduced to ensure everyone has access. In this case even if there was spare capacity you would be limited which hardly seems in the spirit of fair use.
Further the airtel operator told me that they had worked this out in conjunction with all the other ISPs, which should be illegal even in India no? whether it was just a lying sop to customers I dont know, but surely oligopolies are not allowed though I wouldnt be surprised given the generall anarchic (free) quality of Indian civilization.
BTW I just came back from the USA where for the price of airtels 1mbit connection you get 6 although upload is .75mbit.

Airtel is the most useless company when it comes to fair usage policies....
On contacting the Customer Care, they generally ac as if there is nothign cslled the FUP. Right to information ?? oh sorry , we only have the right to fill Sunil Mittal's pocket. With NO respect to him, all i can say is appeal to you guys to disconnect Airtel and use anything. Encourage MTNL/BSNL. Atleast they don't cheat the customer !!

Its just ridiculous, one basically cannot get a truly 'unlimited' and/or 'unmetered' broadband connection in this country. The only solution is to have 2 512 kbps connections and that 2 from 2 different providers so if goes down you have another one... ultimately, you'll have 2 machines to do all the data transfer one needs.

512 kbps beyond 100GB plan
this plan is pay?

hi i was just wondering if the transfer limit of 100gb counts for both upload+download or is it just for downloads ???

Tata Indicom has placed limits on their various broadband traffic with 45 GB on 256kbps, 70 GB on 384kbps and 80 GB on 512kbps. Utterly pathetic and hopeless way of saying UNLIMITED broadband when you have traffic limitations and above all that they call it the FAIR USAGE POLICY. Lets say TRAI has new UNFAIR USAGE POLICIES for budding net surfers and frequent downloaders.

Airtel This is Really Shamefull..Your Service is degrading day by day and the measures you are taking day by day,you are saying to your customers "We are incapable of providing u service upto our own previous set standards,So please pull us back down and HELP US REACH 'THE END' OF OUR COMPANY..We ARE NO MORE THAT AIRTEL WHICH YOU KNEW A FEW YEARS BACK!!"
It is the height of stupidity that you spend crores of rupees for getting Sharukh,Saif Ali Khan,Kareena nd others for ADVERTISEMENTS AND NOT SPENDING EVEN A SINGLE PENNY 2 IMPROVE INFRASTRUCTURE AND SERVICES AND HAPPYly DEGRADING THE SERVICES FURTHERMORE while your PLAN RATES/PRICES ARE SKY HIGH!!
iT IS REALLY SHAMEFUL!!

Why is 512Kpbs subscription allowed 100Gb cap? Same as 1 Mbps. There is no incentive to pay more for greater BW. It should be proportionately double!

This is clear that want to put control on usage, they just pick policies from abroad(only few countries , which also not tale good care of consumer) and place them here, If they want to implement they should follow some other standard too, like we can get 20Mb+ unlimited line for Rs1200 to 1500 in Sweden. why not provide this much speed .

30 x 24 x 60 x 60 seconds = 2592000 seconds in a month.

If the speed is 384kbps -> 48kBps, I should be able to download 124416000 Kilobytes in a month, which is approximately 119GB.

If Airtel increases the download limit to 119GB (which seems fair to me) on my 384kbps connection, I'll stop complaining.

Thanks God! I did not switch to Airtel. BSNL is simply "Best hai mere liye".. LOLZ

That is better but its less than 50% of BW capacity!

I got switched over to 256 from 384 on the 5th with a limit of 25 gb , but now this has changed i am still not upgraded to 384 . where did u guys get the info about the new limits above ? and wen ?

This is utter crap!

India is still lagging behind in the world because of damn slow internet speeds.
On top of that, such stupid operators like Airtel & TATA impose restrictions..

THIS IS INSANE!

Such crappy broadband with limits should be given free of cost to the people. People who pay their bills on time should enjoy unlimited internet access...

I think AirTel and other Telecoms Comp. should to understand Internet is not about surfing and downloading but it relates to development of Social, Economic Growth behaviour of any Country and even more than you can go.

Japan and Any other countries and their Telecoms Comp. are in believing to above subject and not stopping their effort in respect to better communication for their country and for next generation i.e. it would their grand children's may be.

Telecommunication companies have no rights to determined download and upload traffic will be and they don't have ability to determined. i think next-generation needs unlimited download traffic and upload speed should be increased.

Ha ha, people power rules...still, nope nope nope

Let them reduce the limit if they want, but then they should bill us for 1/2 the speed for the period where the speed is half....

if you provide me 1/2 service you should get 1/2 payment
