Good News

don't worry guys...whatever happens is for good something really good coming at the end of this month, if we go by news we already had, from BSNL (hopefully MTNL as well)...

I will wait and watch until 25th of June, and then start the official procedure for the surrender of the B'Band line.

Dont do that so ealry. Thye may introduce a night UL pack later next month.....and hey Aug 15 is arriving ...bsnl always has some gr8 plans for such a day

 

[pupudada]

one can be rest assured that if they end their unlimited plans, more than 80% ppl will surrender their connection... i'm trying to calculate how much `bsnl' has amassed by the non-refundable rs.500/- and the modem setup charges of rs.500/- respectively. Pupudada!Pata nahin 1st July ko `baraat' mein jaaounga ya `samshan' jana parega!

Statics show in Calcutta Telephones in the month of April only 12% users crossed the 1 gb limit. So your assumption that 80% users will surrender their connection, if they end their unlimited plans may not be true.Again rs. 500/- is no more non-refundable.

Is that so? In that case, a majority of that 12% (like me) may have crossed that limit only because it has been advertised that extra data transfer would be charged after 3oth June. Otherwise, they probably would not have had the urgency to download all the softwares immediately.The moral of the story is, if BSNL makes data transfer unlimited forever, nobody would have the urgency to download a lot of goodies by a specified date. Consequently, only a few, say 2-3% would cross that limit and those too would be the new subscribers who would download heavily for the first few months only and then reach saturation point. For example, I did not download half as much in June as I did in the previous months. I guess, in the long run, you'd only find only 1% or less users exceeding 1 GB limit.Given the above facts, I think you should seriously consider advising higher authorities in BSNL either to make the data transfer unlimited or at least increase the limit to, say 10GB or so per month. This would help in your PR and bring more subscribers while the increase in bandwidth consumption would not be that much.

i totally agree with phuchka (my mouth is watering )...it's a craze for the first couple of months, after that u really won't bother about all those downloads, coz then u'd run out of space in ur HD :lol: like earlier if i used to skip one day on downloads i used to feel like i've missed "the world" but i don't feel the same anymore...so basically, very few users would tend to cross the limits in the long run

 

[abdulrahman004]

So the moral of the story is 10Gb is the perfect limit for us ( 1Gb will be too low)

 

[vikikivi]

10 GB is also very low
