*Taxes applicable. Price plans are subject to change

- Installation charges will apply depending on the plan chosen
- All plans are exclusive of taxes (service tax 12.36%)
- Fair Usage Policy applies to all Plans
- Table describes Fair Usage Policy by package with effect from 1st Aug '14



[h=3]Fair Usage Policy (FUP)[/h]
While the packages have been designed to give unlimited broadband experience to the subscribers, few customers may use excessive amount of the data transfer, causing traffic congestion on the network. In order not to impair the experience of other users, a Fair Usage Policy is applied. The Fair Usage Policy is a mandate as per the TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) regulations. This helps to give the desired internt usage experience to all users, especially since broadband is a shared bandwidth experience and the over usage of a group of customers must not affect the rest of the users.

NOTE: At the beginning of the next calendar month, the speed will be automatically reset and increased back to the speeds as per Subscribed Package.
Please see the details of you package or contact our customer support on 040 66 27 27 27.

Is this really a Speed upgrade? These idiots tried to give BSNL Tariffs a Edge.

Beam Gets a Gibabyte for less than Rs.2, They should have given Good FUP like 80 Gb instead of throwing a bisket for barking customers which they treat like dogs.
Assuming they sell wish to sell a Gb for Rs.8 >> 8*60gb = 480 + 350 for that average 70-80 Gb post FUP @ 2Mbps = ~ 800 Rupees.
Instead they could have done 8*80 = ~ 650 + 350 for the average 70-80 Gb Post FUP @ 2Mbps = ~ 999 + S.T > Justified.

I know they are here to do business, but seriously bandwidth prices are falling heavily and they're getting a GB for ~ Rs 1.7 +p2p Caching+ Youtube caching.

They should have at least cared about users who want good FUP in this growing HD world.

End of the day its ACT anyway. *www.techenclave.com/community/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png:-x

According to NTP [STRIKE]2015[/STRIKE] 2012, Minimum speeds have to be 2mbps from 2015 irrespective of what the post FUP is. So yes there would be a speed upgrade again in coming months. After full acquisition then you will See Real ACT, I bet.

Well BSNL gets 1 Gb for less than a 0.50P but because of worst organization of employees getting maximum benefits than customers. It sucks badly. Blame it on UPA 1 & 2.

What beam offers with FUP they have the option to offer FUP FREE> But still they can offer same Beam plans all over Tier 1,2 & 3 Cities Rural it will be difficult and not feasible.

Got a Call From Beam today asking for feedback on New FUP limits. She was So Excited while asking, I told her BSNL has same kind of FUP limits plans from last 6 months.
I even made her acknowledge the same. HAHAAHA Poor Lady! :D
