Airtel GPRS plans

on September 12, 2006 – 11:32 am96 Comments

I would like to take you through the various plans available from Airtel for GPRS.

Airtel does not advertise supporting EDGE through their Mobile Office service but you

cansee a noticeable difference in the latency if your handset supports EDGE like my Nokia

6630. Airtel has a Data Card service which competes with Reliance CDMA Data Card and

Tata Indicom CDMA Data Card.

Here are the plans for Airtel Postpaid User

Plan 1

Rs.399 per month
100 MB Free Usage

Rs.5 per extra MB

Plan 2

Rs.599 per month
1GB Free Usage

Rs.3 per extra MB

Plan 3

Rs. 799 per month
1.5 GB Free Usage

Rs.3 per extra MB

The tarrifs are taken from Airtel’s site

The above plans not only allow you to connect to the internet from your mobile phone but also allow you to use your Laptop or PC . Its can be be a life saver in a place where you dont have internet access otherwise and cannot find a cyber cafe.

    airtel is worst. though they are giving mobile office (gprs), at Rs.15 per day on a prepaid connection for unlimited download, the connectivity is poooor. it always disconnect and the so called technical assistance is absurd. so they are just making fools.

  • sanjeev

    please tell me a solution

  • Keshav

    I am planning to take up an internet connection. Could anyone suggest which connection will be the cheapest///

  • Jon

    Airtel GPRS has been disgusting since the last 2 -3 months. Takes 10-15 seconds to open Google & does not open gmail. Range is terrible, Customer Care help, cannot rectify this problem.
    Airtel’s getting worse. I just hope its not forcing people to switch to its new & very expensive comming soon 3G.
    Advise you to rather go for the Rs 250/- BSNL Broadband connection.

  • Rafique Natar

    airtel is worst
    it is poorest (ISP)internet service provider in the whole world
    when i connet internet to my pc then it shows 460kbs speed dut the actual speed is below 2.5 kbps

  • Anurag

    Im using airtel gprs from the last 6 monts and its excellent, i havent faced any problem till now.And its speed is about 950 kbps.And the interesting thing is that they hav’nt charged me a 1 Rs till now for using this service.For downloading if u use Dap then u will get minimum 30-35 kbps speed at night.But ,for this u should have a edge enabled handset.

  • Durga kumar

    Now airtel gprs is worst service because it costs now 30p/50kb so we are not enjoying free of mind. Now we are spending rs 15 in every five minut.. Monthly expenditure will be about rs 4320

    Hi Friends,

    Airtel is the worest service provider in India now. I have been using Airtel from last 5 years nw bt I have already made my mind to change it. Earlier they had a plan of Rs. 150 where unlimited d/w was free, later they increased to 350 bucks & now they are charging 400 bucks for 100 MB, can u believe it!!!! They nw dont have unlimited plans. What a way to cheat its customers. Instead of charges cming down they have increased it …..

    I hate Airtel …… Nw there is no more Air left in their Tel !!!!

  • Sandesh A Patil

    Airtel simply sucks . I called customer care and they saod that they dont have any monthly plans now!!! She said that they have only 3 plans

    Plan 2 -RS 10 / day …3 Mb free ..after this they will cahrge…20 paise / 50 KB

  • Satya

    Hey Guys,
    Even I am using Airtel GPRS plan for 199/month unlimited download. The conectivity differs from Area to Area. When I use connecting at my home it gives better speed. (ex: I can dwnld 1 song of 5mb @ 2mins Maxm), but at my office the speed is pathetic and it takes 5-6 mins to download the same capacity). At night the connection or downloading speed is faster in comparison to the day.
    HOwever I am happy with the plan and speed as they give me Flat rate plan, either I use in Home network or Roaming network.

  • R.Ram

    I am broken my Airtel Sim. Better way for internet is BSNL Broadband.
    Some point for comparing Airtel & BSNL.

    (1.) Airtel charged Rs. 20/day with 8mb limit it’s mean Rs.600/month for 240mb. But BSNL Broadband offers Rs. 250/month with 1024mb (1GB) limit.

    (2.) Airtel charged 75 Rs./mb if you crossed free usage limit But BSNL charged only 0.40 Rs./mb.

    (3.) Airtel’s maximum net speed is only 5-15 kbps But BSNL provide 512 kbps to 2mbps.

    Some other BSNL Features:-

    Now BSNL landline connection is free

    BSNL gives free Insurance worth Rs. 5000 to Landline customers

    BSNL provide Linux based NovaNet PC in just 2300 Rs. for Urban & 3000 Rs. For Rural Broadband Users, to know more visit http://www.novatium.com

    NovaNet users also get 20% discount on all broadband plans.

    Special plans for Rural Customers
    400mb @ 99/month
    1GB @ 150/month
    4gb @ 250/month
    with free Landline connection, Free Modem & Free Installation.

    So Compare & Enjoy…

    AIRTEL GPRS FOR PREPAID CUSTOMERS IS DISCONTINUED WITHOUT ANY NOTICE

    AIRTEL SHOULD BE SUED. THEY HAVE DEBITED MY Rs.15/- each on TWO OCCASSIONS AND yet not CREDITING IT BACK. THEY ARE FOOL. THEY HAVE ALSO NOT RESTRICTED MY INCOMING CALL TO THEIR CUSTOMER CARE.

    THEY SHOULD BE SUED.

  • R Varadarajan

    I never used GPRS. But the B***s have charged Rs.818.00 in Feb as usage. I asked for explanation and requested them to cancel this facility as I never asked, required or used. In spite of that I received a GPRS bill fo 620.00 in next month. I refused to pay and asked for details. Instead of giving the details the b***s have disconnected my phone. When the charges inidcated here are about Rs.15.00 per month how could have they charged Rs.818 / or Rs.620.00 ? Any help??

  • W.P.Rayalu

    BSNL best sab ke liye.
    It is true.
    Dont be a prey for private telecoms. They will loot from u in some way.
    Opt for BSNL and help them with more subscribe base for further lowering their tarifs.
