It's time for you people to actually buy something.. How funny people are protesting since this limits their capacity of stealing.. Definitely the policy is fair enough.

at 512Kbps you can download 165.89 GB/month max and the limit is 80GB. Man, how much do you guys want?

Ecstasy · 05-03-2009, 11:40 PM

Keep a track on the news, I am sure even MTNL will come up with this sh1t sooner or later. Assclowns!!

it;s not about how much WE want. But if we let them today do this, tomorrow they will limit it to (who knows 10GB) WTF this is man! I-WILL-DOWNLOAD-AS-MUCH-AS-I-WANT! Who are they to decide that!

If they can;t afford then either don give such plan or hike it;s price. WTF do they mean by 'will get suspended'! The only thing that they want is CHEAT their customer as many of them don understand the technical meaning of 'bandwidth'.

Fair usage policy is fair ONLY for companies and NOT customers.

Err... I paid for an unlimited connection. The ISP charged me for an unlimited connection. Once that is done, why am I being limited in the amount of data that I can download? Why should I suffer for the inadequacies of my ISP? Why was I not informed about the possibilities of implementing such a scheme when I was promised an 'unlimited' connection?

well i hope that reliance does not come up with these fcuking plans..

^^ wonder why people write posts like this ... maybe a case of desperately seeking attention disorder ....

we are funny people coz we dont buy anything ,,, once we people start buying we become like you .... dont assume that everyone is here for d/l warez & illegals on the net .... plz . nd even if they r doing that its no reason for the isps to make stupid policies like this !!!!!!!

sohancool · 06-03-2009, 09:53 AM

max_demon · 06-03-2009, 10:18 AM

I heard this from one of my friend.

What??

How much will be the speed on Airtel Mobile Office(U?L plan) after a user crosses the allocated limit? 10kbps??

Instead of relying on online petitions, users should complaint to TRAI. It doesn't hesitate in taking actions in case a service provider is crossing the limits.

Oops! My bad. Sorry, it's PIRACY, not privacy. Edited the original post.

ThinkFree · 06-03-2009, 05:03 PM

Someone having copy of guidelines issued by TRAI for better Internet/ broadband service issued on Mar 2?

There site is screwed up and I am unable to download it from http://www.trai.gov.in/PressReleases_content.asp .
http://www.trai.gov.in/%60WriteReadD...s2mar09.pdf%60 is not a valid link

4. In order to ensure sufficient bandwidth for provisioning of good
quality of service to their subscribers, all service providers (ISPs,
UASLs, CMSPs, BSOs) providing Internet/broadband services are
advised to use contention ratios better than listed below for different
services:-

Sr. No. Services Max. Contention for Home users Ratio Max. Contention Ratio for business users
1 Dialup 1:70 -----
2 Broadband 1:50 1:30
3 High Bandwidth 1:1 to 1:4 (to be defined by Service providers in Services customer package)
4 Leased Line ---- 1:1 to 1:4

Contention Ratio is defined as the number of users competing for the same bandwidth.It can also be defined as the number of subscribers sharing the same bandwidth
capacity.

http://www.trai.gov.in/WriteReadData...ines2mar09.pdf

I think that's the reason service providers are using such practices. They are not interested in upgrading their infrastructure but are ready to stop users from using the service that they have paid for. So in near future, to suppress consumers' anger, ISPs might stop providing plans tagged UNLIMITED USE as such practices are not acceptable for these.

naveen_reloaded · 06-03-2009, 08:30 PM

WTF ??

i think the IT minister should step sown...

man this is crazy...

they wont provide or say upgrade to higher speed but they are taking steps to downgrade the usuage...

this is bull ****,,,

and what can we people do ???

i think its time to start protest...

fill the forums... youtube , blogs... if possible write to hindu editor... , all major newspaper....

lets fight...

amol48 · 06-03-2009, 08:53 PM

During the times of recession they want to run away with the cost of infrastructure upgradation but that doesn't give them right to do this!

I wonder if Reliance would ever do this? They have a fibre optic network! Also I think BSNL will stay away from this.

Whats the point if we do all the things you mentioned. Did anything happen to "Airtel fair sh1t policy"? We made petitions, created forums/community/groups, wrote letters to TRAI and Airtel chairman. What happened in the end? Nothing na. Same is going to happen now also, all we can do is accept the sh1ty policy and live with it, cause this country is hopeless in this case. -.-

kalpik · 07-03-2009, 09:26 AM

^^ They changed the limits on FUP to a GREAT extent!
