Hi

just got sms on my fathers mobile that bsnl has introduced recharge voucher for rs 197/- for one month unlimited use of GPRS.
I think it is the cheapest rate for gprs usage as airtel charge 20/- per day on rs 350 on postpaid for a month.

Sorry for posting an old thread,
Today I went to a BSNL delar and he simply denied and said there is no such things out there...after that he start to describe how to enable GPRS & I can't use it any regular handset,when I assure that my phone is GPRS capable/ enabled for past 2 year,then he behave with me like I am a criminal.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

@Techmasti
Can you specify the exact delar location where you get this facility or are you recharge from other way medium like using Debit/Credit Card ?

I have also Airtel Prepaid too.....I have enabled GPRS in it too with the help of some Tech Blog....Can I have the similar service from them.

I searched Airtel website and it is confusing....btw the Airtel connection is belong to Bihar Circle where I work & stay...if I charge something here is it workable outside Bengal.

Any solid link will be helpful...Airtel as well as BSNL.


P.S:-If I get anything solid from BSNL...I swear I print that page and paste directly to his face with Fevicol. :mad::confused::mad::confused:

Sorry for being rude.

sorry for very late reply.....
what i know only is that this scheme is only available through e-recharge. No recharge voucher or other things. you have to make RECHARGE (not Topup) through e-recharge.
for 7 days = Rs.51
for 30days= Rs.189
i am using this now. speed is as usual as in GPRS. No BSNL EDGE in my area. And one most important thing that, its IP is shared:(, so you cant download anything from RS/MUetc. ok for surfing.

and also heard that this is not available in Kolkata circle, only in West Bengal circle in WB. it will be better if you can inquire about details in BSNL kolkata office....

Thanks for replying....

I use GPRS connection for e-mail & IM's and occasional web browsing...

What is E-Charge ?

Isn't mean re-charge via some BSNL retailer a/c & you need only pay the amount after receving the SMS which indicate that you received this kind of balance...If yes, I did this type of charging for a long time.

By visiting another retail outlet outside my locality,he claim that he hard such thing but not available it under the Kolkata Telephone's operate area...but can be available in WB circle as Tech.Masti quoted but there is no guarantee it will work under the Kolkata Telephones circle.

I tried to configure my phones with all that **** which BSNL(Calcutta Telphones) gave at their website and also tried cellone.in...but it never ever worked.(i,e some creepy port 8080 & some IP address/proxy address)

One day I set(Accidentally) connection name "BSNL" & Access point "www.e.pr" and rest of all stuff is blank/default....& it work like charm.

If I use setting wizard of my phone it download the wrong setting i,e "www.e.po" which is for postpaid connection & that not work too.

But past 2 weeks BSNL GPRS is down in my area...No GPRS at all.

& BTW my Airtel SIM got "E" Mark on it...which is not there before.
