MTNL To Announce New Unlimited Plans On Oct. 2nd

[chicmagnet]

ya more then airtel i`m waiting for mtnl to come out with unlimited plans... as if i have to take airtel then i`ll have to take an airtel landline connection too.. which i cant.. for certain reasons...so well mtnl better come out with unlimited plans!! ..and ya 50% tariff reduction isnt good if the quality of service provided isnt up to the mark..

OK, here's another update, lol. Called up the Del. GM today to ask him abt the new plans and tariffs. Told me that he'd left MTNL and moved to UP, hehe. But dropped a hint that MTNL's unlimited plans will cost more than Airtel's. So then i asked him staight up whether he could confirm this and predicatbly he said that since he wasn't with MTNL anymore, cudn't confirm and that i should call them up.So then, I called up the Marketing head and he said that though he didn't have the official information yet, said that there would be NO unlimited plans this time around but they have lowered their tariffs on some plans(entry level ones) and existing plans such as 590NU will have increased daytime usage limits eg. plans such as DSL399 will have 700MB usage limit as opposed to 350 earlier and the addnl usage cost will be lowered from Rs1.20 to 1.00. Said that he'll let me know if anythin official reaches him before closing hour today.

Bad that there is no unlimited plan but for average user 700 Mb in 399 is good, hope they make 590NU to atleast 1GB day usage, then its worth it.

nah 590NU with a minimum of 5gb is worth it... one gb still less.. cause if you give a NU plan then your targeting downloaders more then normal surfers(like the dsl 399 plan does) and for downloaders 5gb ought to be good enough for now ....

I would love it even if they give 2 GB in 590 NU.....at the moment they give just 500 MB atleast they must match BSNL to give 1 GB

waterloo_sunset, in that case all my hopes are with airtel starting out service in my area...chicmagnet, as far as I understand, they will give you a landline connection BUT they will charge you ONLY if you make any calls...
