Excuse me Hello.....Why are u comparing the home based plan of Bsnl which is offering 256kbps @ 500....Going by the rules BSNL is offering 1gb for rs.500...Now Tata is offering 2 Gb for 512kbps at Rs.1600 (1575/-)....Now lets look for a similar plan in BSNL...what do i find..512kbps @ rs.1800 but with d/l limit upto 5Gb..Now hows that for comparisn...

Next time u compare something make sure they belong to the same category

because i simply dont believe that they can MAKE me take up another phone (i have my rights on what to accept you know!) and my dad would kill me if i tried to disconnect my BSNl landline.

What i want is CHEAP, fast internet with unlimited downloads,.....

hmm... sorry if I am being intrusive, but I don't understand your logic behind preferring Tata.

You don't have to disconnect your BSNL line... you just get another landline from Airtel, and since you would be paying either 300 or 500 rupees (depending on the phone package you take), it will just make your BSNL bill cheaper by that amount every month... i.e. if you balance your calls between the two lines. And as Sushubh mentioned, you get a backup line in case BSNL is down.

Basically:
1) You get unlimited downloads with both
2) Airtel will have at least the same speed as Tata (though I suspect that Airtel would give better speeds);and
3) Airtel is cheaper, even with the phone!!!

So according to your criteria, Airtel is a much better match.

Frankly, I don't care what you take... your life, your money and all that... just wondering if I am missing something here

exactly. we got 2 lines of airtel here. we have use of none. but they come handy at times... the best thing is the reliability and the customer support. but ofcourse, it depends upon what i thinks

Sorry vebmetal dude, i'm still 19 years old, with no cash to call my own... i'm lookin for a low cost 'hi-speed' internet, as someone did a comparison before b/w airtel and tata, i would like to add that for a comparison for a budget upto Rs.1500, it may be ok, but for 'confirmed less than Rs.1000' and ONLY net, i'd rather go for Tata...
plus, i use the phone mainly for a lot of incoming, so it would just be a waste...
BTW my dad is still killin me, so i gotta jump the gun (in a manner of speaking)..

Oh, and i'm still hurting under their customer care service from Airtel mobile services ( can we start a " I Hate so&so Mobile Service" thread?

 

[Sushubh]

i hate the number of SMS they send on atleast the prepaid connections.

Can anybody tell me y these tata ppl r digging up the roads for laying up cables. When i asked the guy he told me they have some agreement with NDPL (north delhi power limited) abt laying of cables underground but he didn't clarified it much. Anyone have any idea wht's going on ??
