This page has unlimited tariff plans from BSNL. Looks interesting, but there are unlimited plans which offer you a slower connection speed once you have reached certain amount of download and this only happens in India. This has to go. It is not encouraging people to use broadband but punishing them.

Hi Friends,
I have done a little bit of searching on the net and somehow I seem to find MTNL and BSNL as the only 2 ISPs in India who really offer unlimited download (per month) as stated on their respective tariff pages. There is no fair usage policy to fool the users as far as I know. Please let me know if I am correct here. I wish all the other privately owned ISP also had these unlimited download plans with no fair usage policy whatsoever. If MTNL and BSNL make themselves more efficient then they can give others a run for their money and help India become an IT superpower in some sense. Thanks.

Unfortunately, it happens all over the world. All the way from NZ to Australia to the UK to the USA and Canada.
It's more normal on a worldwide basis to have a FUP whereby your speed is reduced to 256k or so once you hit a certain cap than to have truely unmitigated and unlimited access. What hurts even more is that in many cases, the speed is reduced from 20+Mbit/s down to 256k, not like 1Mbit/s to 256k!
Some countries in Europe, SG, HK, JP and SK would be the worldwide exceptions that I can think of OTOH.

yeah but it is limited and even with the FUp you get good speeds
india speed are already low and even lower with FUP and lower FUP limits
and now don't compare india best with some other countries shitty ISP,compare india's best like AIRTEL,etc by userbase with their best and the result will always go in their favor

So... 64/128/256k after the FUP is hit is still good speeds? Have you ever checked out the plans of any non-US ISPs (who are extremely non-specific about what actually happens when you hit their FUP limits)?
india speed are already low and even lower with FUP and lower FUP limits
ISPs in most other countries are just doing with the speed what I think ISPs in India should be doing and that is just having speeds essentially uncapped until the FUP is hit - NZ, AU and UK in particular have plans which are basically just ADSL2+ until you hit XX gigabytes, then the speed drops to a lower speed. Indian ISPs restrict the speed on either side of the FUP
and now don't compare india best with some other countries shitty ISP,compare india's best like AIRTEL,etc by userbase with their best and the result will always go in their favor
Quality doesn't vary as much in other countries as it does in India, but I don't believe I have specifically named any ISPs - foreign or domestic - in any comparisons.
