When would Act Fibernet launch unlimited plans like Jio and Airtel?

[Joy]

Maybe .
That's why there is some maintenance activity.

My request to ACT lucknow for a data cap increase against a disconnection request was shot down. They told me that in other cities they maybe offering an increase but not in lucknow.

@rajil.s Let's see upto what extent this denial to adapt carries them .

@Joy Till they starts loosing market share for real.

@rajil.s same for me, they didn't offer me increase in data cap against disconnection request. I have paid for 6 months, 2 months have completed. If they don't increase ,I think switching to someone other network might become an option.

If ACT plans to give unlimited broadband plans, then they have to overhaul the whole revenue system.
They will lose their revenue from flexybytes+, router, and other services like gaming,Yupp TV, ZEE, netflix subscription etc. These services are provided by ACT at much higher cost than JioFiber and Airtel Broadband.
Moreover, even the corporate plans provided by ACT Fibernet (in Hyd) gives 400 Mbps speed with 1.5 TB FUP limit.
If they give unlimited plans for residential users, then they have to increase the FUP for commercial plans also.
At the moment, ACT doesn't appear to be in a situation to provide unlimited FUP and subscription services just like JIO and AIRTEL.

@kraj105 Well, it's just a matter of time before competition will make them feel the heat. Airtel has already adapted. I only remember ACT Ceo saying once that they look forward to Jio Fiber rollout:
Why ACT Fibernet Is Actually Looking Forward to the Jio GigaFiber Rollout
I just hope they realize this, sooner the better.

Maybe they will bring unlimited plans to selected cities without increasing prices...

I don't think act is earning enough revenue to think about from these apps and flexybytes + .. so what I'm thinking is they will bring unlimited plans to selected cities by the end of this month or year.. out of 10 act customers maybe 2 or 3 will opt for these apps and buys flexybytes + so it's not a big deal..

Not even 2/10,maybe 5-10/1000 will opt for these apps. ACT doesn't need to give apps etc. They just need to increase FUP limit, its likely that competition will make them do it. Losing on FlexByte is better than losing customers overall.
