If you're already in Max 150, they won't switch you to Max 80. Having said that, we do need Max 175 and Turbo 175 plans. Hopefully, they will be added soon.
This Max 150 I have in my house in Pondicherry.Here I have the choice of moving to BSNL 4Mbps 175GB.I will be staying in my flat in chennai for the next 6 months where I got Turbo 80GB.I,ve been told I cant upgrade to 150GB.Also BSNL 4mbps 175GB isnt available.Iam really surprised by the lack of broadband options in Chennai.Also,if I downgrade this 150GB connection to something cheaper for 6 months I'am not sure Airtel would give me 150 Gb plan back.
 
The BSNL 4mbps 175Gb (Rs.2150 right?) should be available in TN circle. But, it seems Chennai circle is different or something. If they offer me this plan, I'll migrate. Since they don't, I'm sticking with Airtel Turbo 150. If you have this BSNL plan in Pondy, you should go for it. Because Turbo 4mbps 150GB is now Rs. 2250/- and without any free voice. BSNL has Rs. 250 worth of free calls. But, if you downgrade to a lower option for 6 months, you won't be able to go back to 150GB plan as it does not exist any more. At least, not in the present.Depending on where you live in Chennai, you could go for Rapid 8mbps 175. See, if they can provide it for you.
 
Max 80 GB is Rs. 1699. So, if Max 175 exists, it should be like Rs. 2099 or Rs.2199. But, why no Turbo 175!?
The pricing of Max 175 has now been changed to Rs. 2199.
I hope Airtel will offer Turbo 175 GB for Rs. 2299 or Rs. 2399.
Rapid 175 is Rs. 2599.
 
Airtel CC seems to be down.Trying to change to this plan.Do they accept plan change requests on email?.
 
technically they should. but to ensure that you get your new plan, keep on bugging them through all the channels until you get a confirmation that the request has been filed and it would be implemented from the next billing cycle.
 
In my experience, e-mail is the best correspondence available for Airtel CC.The topic should be changed to reflect the new (actual?) price.
