But is this plan Pan Indian?
I mean didn't find it on Kolkata Circle of BSNL.

Sep 7, 2016 at 10:58 PM
^^That is an official internal office circular meant for bsnl offices.Point no.5 clearly mentions "applicable w.e.f. 09/09/2016 on regular basis in all the circles" so the plan will be pan India.Therefore any updates in circle websites will be on or after 09/09/2016 only.

So let me get this straight, this is a 2 mbps UNLIMITED plan? I mean the speed won't go down up until that 600 GB mark? Didn't they announce post FUP minimum speed of 1 mbps just last month or sometime like that? So now the post FUP speed is 2 mbps minimum?

That is the only problem. I had an issue with the landline 2 weeks ago.

I registered complaint on the self care site, after 3 days they resolved it by switching my line with someone else. Then I wrote to the CMD, Appellate, etc. Not much response from them. I went to the BSNL office and explained them.

After serveral hours they rectified it. The issue lasted for 8 days.

Well I think it is better than Plan 1445 and if 600 GB is there - then OK.

Far less Billing amount than plan 1445 which I currently got.

Edit :- 24 hrs free calling - Nice.

So I called CC for plan change. After several attempts one gal picked up and said this plan is not available to existing customers right now. It is being offered to new customers only at this time. I told her this plan was pan india as mentioned in their site. She said no instruction was there saying so.

If you want concrete response then always use email so that all conversations are in written form.Write an email to your district bsnl office attaching screenshot of this link where it says "Applicability All users in all the circles". Better yet,take a printout of plan page & visit your local exchange for plan change.Remember whatever you do get their reply in written form(letter or email). I doubt,after seeing the printout clearly saying for all users,they will give a negative reply in written.

This is completely incorrect. Bsnl has per day billing, which means plan change is effective from the day its done by the exchange people or through selfcare portal online. And this is the case since ages even as late as 2010.

My bad,was unaware of it.

Still a bit apprehensive about the plan at this juncture.
Most of the people (having BSNL Broadband connections) will definitely jump for this BBG Combo ULD 1199 Plan,resulting in excess load on bandwidth and thus slow traffic.
Hence waiting for some couple of months and then make a decision after getting reviews and feedback.:Fingerx:

It's an improvement yes but nothing to praise about. I would really prefer having ACT Hyderabad's plans atleast. Don't know why that one area get's special treatment.

I am thinking five years ahead mate. I pay ₹980 now for Alliance's 2 mbps plan, and when they say 2 mbps it is 2 mbps, upload speed too. Also from 1 AM to 8 AM it is 5.5 mbps. So you can download your needed files at that time at almost 3x speed than normal. I am just thinking what would BSNL do after say five years. Will there be a chance we could have 4 mbps True Unlimited plan by 2020, somewhere around 1500 per month? That's the only thing interests me. One has to be an utter foolish to go back to BSNL from private broadband. However the 24x7 free calling is something to look for, for my parents at least, its very irritating for me :lol:

2 mbps IS SLOW, it doesn't feel slow, it is not might be slow, it IS SLOW, simple as that, this is almost end of 2016. But like I said filthy companies are at least going forward, that's a new, and there are location where private broadband aren't available, so you gotta think about them too.

PS: Forgot to ask, this 1199 plan, what is the exact amount post taxes?

Can't speak about worse or not, cause I am only using this for about six months now. Overall I am happy with it. Just wish the stability was at least comparable to BSNL, and the overall connection quality too (I could download *ahem* stuffs even when they had just 1 uploader, not the case with Alliance, you know what I am talking about :p). Any sort of lighting, the connection goes. However the connection was there in last few days' rain, so that's good. And they do provide the near 6 mbps speed at happy hours, i.e. 1-8 AM, other times too 2 mbps is given. And needless to say for Youtube videos, Google Play apps and sorts like that connection hovers around 3-4 mbps. So 1080p quality is auto selected on Youtube. To be quite honest, this is not even comparable to BSNL. I can deal with 20-30 hours downtime in a month (exaggerating the downtime anyway), but what I can't deal with is ****ing 1.8 mbps download up to 10 gigs and 100 KB/s upload, so BSNL can **** themselves with that.

I am now torn whether to take this 1199 plan or not, just for those free calls' sake, I know its a very impractical decision but God knows why I am giving it a thought!

2Mbps is slow now, soon 4mbps will be like 56k.
Like videos are taking over the web, javascript libraries just get bigger and bigger and desktop apps are moving to web based apps.

So looks like high end internet is going to stay high end until next breakthrough.

Why don't you go to there office in cit court phillips more p-31 and tell them why your services are even getting worse than bsnl ?
Recently they have acquired a pan india license for internet serivce and they are coming to mp,up,tn,kl soon.

And bsnl gets downtime of more than 3-4 days and biggest problem is with linemans and any noise defect in the line

You could do that speedtest check thingy after two days.

Great to see that the speed is actually 2 mbps instead of 1.8 mbps this time, however that upload speed, WOW! But well they are advancing, that's a good sign nevertheless.

Just came from exchange. Didn't changed the plan to this as I want to check bsnl 3g sim unlimited speed first.
Lady over there told me process to change to this is very easy. Just give an address proof copy and changing application. It will be changed tomorrow itself.
She had no idea about portal change system.

As per BSNL, cost will be same, I mean tariff of monthly plan(when changed from ordinary copper cable to FTTH optical).
BUT you need to invest/buy/purchase modems compatible & suitable for FTTH at a cost of Rs.9k~12k approx. likely.
This was confirmed to me from the local BSNL Telephone exchange.

Re: BSNL BBG Combo ULD 1199 to offer 2mbps Unlimited & unlimited local/std calls for Rs. 1199

I applied for plan change from BBG ULD 1445 to BBG ULD 1199 in Banglaore Jayanagar branch and in online i can see the plan change. The speed i am getting is around 1.2 Mbps to 1.5 Mbps. From my point of view there is not much difference as of now this plan is only good in papers but not in reality.

With 1445 plan i was getting higher speed (did not measure but i could see the difference) for 30GB and after that 1 Mbps. I was checking couple days back and i was already getting 1 to 1.1 Mbps

Railwire tariffs have not updated. I previously applied with them and they didn't contact even after 20 days. Much customer service!

With this plan I get free calls and 1.6-1.8 mbps. Kinda satisfied. Should have been 4mbps imho.

I requested to change my current plan to ULD 1199 plan through selfcare portal on Oct 28th. They called to confirm on 29th. I kept checking portal everyday, but no change. So finally I called 1500 today and asked the status. And that girl told me there's no request, nothing in my name and number. I'll have to go to the Exchange and give application, then they'll change my plan!!

What a waste of time!! Why give these options if they aren't gonna work?? When I last changed my plan through portal in February, it was a simple, painless process. There was a list of all available plans and you choose whatever plan you want and submit the request. And it was changed within 24 hours. Now the list is gone and now it opens a new window where you have to write them short 40 word comment and give various info like name, number, locality etc. Then they call you back. And apparently nothing happens after that...

Due to the pgportal complaint, lineman came and checked lines. Said 'all is well' and left. No communication was made regarding the complaint by any authority. SNR upstream has increased from 9.3 to 23.8. Don't know whether this was result of any action.

Still speed is low as 1.6. My upload has now reduced to ~400kbps. ( Previously it was around ~650).

People getting more than 2mbps on this plan, Can you share your modem status page?

BBG Combo ULD 1199 speed is now decreased - It never goes beyond 1.8 Mbps and upload sucks at 255 Kbps at mine - I think this is the true color of the plan in the name of Free Unlimited calling....Well played BSNL.

My earlier plan 1445 provide 750 to 800 Kbps upload speed and I comfortably upload small YouTube videos time To time - but now it will be nightmare at that speed.

Following up on the pgp portal complaint a bsnl staff called and told me if I was within 500 metres, I will get 2 mbps speed. I told them extend the copper cables to my area and he was laughing. From my area to the bsnl office, is only 2 kms. He told if I have Fibre to the Home then I will get speed of 2 mbps.

Also he told me that 1.6 mpbs is a good speed. I told him to ask the mananger to whom complaint was forwarded to call me and I will talk to him.

He told me changing port speed will not work, as I'm beyond 500 meters.

Update from pgportal

DGM NWO EAST reports that BB speed in copper cable network vary and depends on so many parameters. However available speed is good. However it will be observed for few more days . Intimated sub .

Letter is addressed and attached

Type of Disposal : Accepted

My response to them.

I have used several bsnl broadband plans before and have received exact speed mentioned in the previous plans. For e.g. my previous plan was 1 mbps before and after Fair Usage Policy, I used to get 1 mbps everytime and it was the same copper cable network. This is deficiency in services from BSNL and BSNL is only interested in making money from customers by false advertising this broadband plan. I am disappointed.

After the upgrade to 1 Mbps standard, there is no stability in the network too. The modem shows connected, all parameters are apparently normal but there is no data transfer. After few seconds upto minutes data connectivity resumes by itself. And the speed keeps varying while earlier it was rock steady.

May be their network is indeed overloaded at the local level. Also could be bad optimization or something at the back end.

This is supposed to be their New Generation Network that can handle much more.
