Is Airtel still offering retention broadband plans?

Hello! I want to know if Airtel Retention is still active and provides the discounts?

Thanks.

You are talking about the 799 plan + 299 Top up for unlimited right? I guess the amount will roughly be the same around 1300 including taxes for 100 Mbps Unlimited.

Yeah. I don't think you can get it any cheaper than that.

You CAN get it for cheaper than that. Pick a plan for 6 or 12 months, coz as far as I remember, they give discounts on the longer term plans.

Can kind of confirm that they don't offer retention discounts. I asked for a disconnection of my Airtel BB (15yr old), they accepted without any fuss. Strange.

They don't have any room for retention plan

Soon they'll be back to old ways. Let the jio effect reach out via management.

Exactly @mikrotik

The only thing they can do is give you cash for keeping the connection.

I got a retention voucher for DTH (One Airtel Plan).

My area was upgraded to fiber by Airtel only after Jio introduced fiber in my apartment complex. When i placed a request with Airtel for upgradation to fiber i was told that discount on the plan would be removed. When the bill came, however, i was surprised to note that the discount had been continued and the monthly price was exactly same as Jio's erstwhile bronze plan. Maybe they remove/retain discounts after ascertaining availability/non-availability of sizeable competition in the area.

Well Airtel is laying the Fiber lines in my area since before covid, though the work has just resumed again sometime back. Not sure how long they'll take and I'm fine with Jio Fiber for now
