*www.tataindicombroadband.in/

Contact their Costomer Scare, even My self waiting for info....

One thing is allmost sure that its available with allmost all plans...

is this bb service for big cities only?does we can get a connection for towns where tata indicom mobile service is available

^^^

Yup only seems its BSNL whick reach of remote places... !!!! TATA / AirTel / Other players even in proper cities Like Mumbai / Kolkata/ Delhi / Chennai / B'lore / etc have limited reach

Hmm. How long exactly IS "one night"? 6~7 hours? In that case, its not much. I've heard of some "night" plans, which start at 2ish and end before 8.

A

no its for selective cities only as the official site shows

just called them in Delhi. Actually it is not a separate plan in itself.
Customer 'scare' says that if you already have a time based plan, you can activate it from My account>My tariffs and then you will have night unlimited at 2 mbps from 9 pm to 9 am.
Anyone who already has tata, can you confirm this if you have such a selection in your account settings?

Thnx for the info

Cleared few things up

oh, by the way almighty, the cities are their coordination centers. The broadband is available in a huge area around the cities too.

2MB NU for just 99 :shock:

A

So does it means that i can go in for a time based plan from tata and then get a night UL pack and surf whole night at 2mbps without being billed in my total hours ? :?:

^^^
If u pay Rs. 99/- + TAX PM, then YUP

thats what it looks like. Could someone having tata indicom bb please confirm? I don't really trust these tech support guys.

WOW! I am getting myself Tata Indicom. They'll be sucked dry though and will most probably stop the service then.

So, do I need to get a Tata landline? Is it available in Kolkata (Hungerford Street, Camac Street)?

Very interesting news. Rapidshare, Demonoid etc should be getting scared...their bandwidth will be sucked by India now

Anyone knows, how much it will exactly cost. I might consider ttwo connections , one for day and one for night

I don't have a portable HDD. The one I have is anything but portable and as you already know, I lost all the "original contents" when I broke it.

I think you meant 9PM to 9AM.

S

Airtel has been providing unlimited night time (9PM to 8AM) broadband for 50 bucks extra for quite some time now... Though the speed is not 2 MBPS (I think I get it at 512 Kbps), I am quite happy with it because I do long night downloads only occasionally...

Arun

guys do i need to get a tata indicom landline for this? ....if yes then wats its cost???
give some details guys..

Thanks

prateek_san said:

No I do not think a Tata Indicom landline (Walky) is required. Tata Indicom BB works on standalone basis. Internet is available with Walky but speed is close to dial-up.

Oh WOW! That's so awesome. So, if I don't like the service or something, I can always dispense with it whenever I wish to. Cool! I am definitely getting myself this one.

digitized said:

Yes, I did indeed. Does not make it any less huge.

This is a nice offer.

But just one question? Is the Tata BB service reliable? I heard many BAD reviews about it.

Considering Timebased plan, the cheapest plan available is QuickPower180 for pack value Rs.1710 + Rs. 500(Installation charges). So I have to pay Rs2210 initially and just Rs.99+tax per month. Isn't it?
And I guess Navi Mumbai comes under Mumbai area. Anybody from Navi Mumbai haing Tata BB? How is the speed?

Damn it. I can't get any of these broadband services to my place. What is wrong with this world. I'm waiting here, cash in hand. But no one wants to take it

^^^
Bingo,that happens with me too

just 40kms away from Cochin city but only 2 BB providers in my town(asianet and dataone).where are u airtel,tata

Goobi, same here. Ready to spend money but no broadband

@praka123, I am just 18 kms form Cochin city, that also NH side, but no broadband here

Hope TATA will come in the future ....

^but afaik there are "advicers" for this type of companies who surveys and give reports.thats why.for eg:alleppey is neglected by many distributors also is idukki dist.wht i am saying - although potential buyers may be in such places but losers judged things too earlier for companies to start giving their service in these areas.Hope they get things correctly.as with BB and other services,the scene is different in kerala unlike other states.small towns are much more capable and more buying power exists.but the "generalization" done by some market pundits makes things difficult for ppl living in small towns in kerala.Hope they awakes.

Dont u agree on it ??

i have not had any experience with tata. but when i wanted to end my airtel postpaid mobile connection, but they dragged for 3 weeks making me lose the one month advance deposit they charge.

~500 bucks.

Choto Cheeta said:
^^^

Dont u agree on it ??

ohh yes
I agree with it

Is it also available in mumbai ?

Here is what I got

Night unlimited plan is only applicable on Time Based prepaid plans.
The cheapest Time Based prepaid plan is available at 510 per month (based on a 12 month subscription). You must have a Tata Indicom Landline too.

Speeds of up to 2Mbps is only applicable in the following cities - Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Baroda, Hyderabad (including Secunderabad), Chennai, Cochin, Coimbatore, Kolkata, Pune, Delhi, Mumbai, Calicut, Kannur, Trichur, Thiruvananthapuram. Customers in all other cities will experience speeds of up to 512 Kbps.

Its definately not for me as i am in a town and Tata Indicom is not available here.

Great! So basically, I've got to get myself a Tata Indicom landline with this time based plan for twelve months and then I can download fifty HD movies each month. Sounds fabulous.

_____________

Oh NO!!!

I knew this was too good to be true. Here's a dampener. The time based plans offer a maximum of 720 hours for a year. It is impossible for me to make it last more than five months. And this night unlimited thing is only available on time based plans.

I'm back to DataOne now.

ha well..cool plan..but what bout the other 12 hours...wat happens then??do we have to pay seperately fr each hour we r online??...night unlimited is cool fr heavy downloaders alone...but wat bout surfers like us+heavy downloaders...nt dun..but guys nt to worry...tata is gonna lower its tariffs by a huge margin..a correspondent told me that.so chill..

I think I can still go for that plan. It gives you three things:
1. Night unlimited (9PM to 9AM).
2. Two hours per day.
3. Unlimited downloading.

I think I can use it for two hours each day and then after and before 9PM and 9AM respectively. And, of course, it is not that I'll be using it every single day. There will be days, and sometimes even weeks, when I won't use the Internet at all. So those hours will be saved up. I think I can survive.

Now the only things I've got to know are how reliable they are, how good the service is and whether the speeds are really around 2Mbps consistently.

S

Though I have Tata Indicom broadband but until end of August I am on unlimited 128 kbps plan. Only after that I can renew the account

. I must get a time limited plan now

^^^y do u hav to stick to tht mate..nt necessary..u can change ur plan wenevr u like frm the tata indicom website....they will adjust the bills accordingly

Whats your address?

I have used Tata Broadband for 14 months.They $***.Their service is poor.

Anyone interested in these plans, do yourself a favor and resort to any ISP other than Tata Indicom Broadband. Their network is pathetic, local guys take care of everything. If something goes wrong, it won't ever get fixed until you hop to some other provider.

If you don't believe me, google and go through the horror stories of tata indicom broadband subscribers. For using the night unlimited, your connection has to be working!

you may be right..But I think this is a must try offer. However I dont have TataBB in my area but I wish to try this offer.

Have a look on my earlier experience with tata.

@ravi_9793

I still doubt TATA's Capability under load... as more and more Subscribers switch to 99/- offer and starts eating up the bandwidth, then only we can get the picture...

I dont agree with ur comment that its Must try offer, but I would say its a must try offer for those who are already in TATA connection....

Those who wants to make a switch now, i would suggest, wait for 3/4 months to see the real picture, how TATA performed under load... !!!!

R

Right Now I am having Airtel Mobile Office, in short I use mobile phone for connectivity, this Tata connection can be from Indicom Mobile or landline is must?

Are there any better alternatives than Airtel MO

^^^^

Its one ADSL interface so u will need wireing !!!

Ya, when Airtel launched in Chandigarh....the first few sectors to cover included my cousin bro sector. HE got this amazing offer of night unlimited for Rs 50 and also double speeds. So in fifty rupess he gets 512KBPS.

By the time they came to my sector 2 yrs back, offer was no longer available. Now that my cousin is in Bangalore, i pay his bills and use his connection

Well I would b waiting to hear from BSNL EVDO Plans

BSNL people are installing EVDO in selected cities / areas. May take some more time I think.

Meantime, they launched the data card.

hey r u from MOTIHARI

my GF is dere man

nice to meet u man

hey can u flash two plans in one go..i mean to say..fr example can i take a 64 kbps plan and this plan simultaneously??..so i can surf duringthe day and download at nite..?

Thats Rs 99 for 12 hours right! I wonder when will the rest 12hours also are for Rs99. Making it total Rs200.....Umm! in 5 yrs maybe

^^^

Nope, there is no rest 12hours as to have this facility one would need to have already using Time based plan...

no matter how high volume plan u buy, TATA will not allow total of 720 hours of connectivity...

so as Arya Pointed out, if its 12hours at night so for him 2 hours at day time

:lol:

^^^^^^^^^agree with @choto cheeta
This is like top up ..u have to pay extra Rs 99/- along with ur current plan bill to get this offer.

agree with U again............new subscriber should wait for few months to get review about this plan.But....if they provide @1mpbs unlimited download,than also it is simply gr8.

ravi_9793 said:

Well we are still yet to see what BSNL provides with EVDO !!! 2.4mbps promissed unlimited at proposed Rs. 250/-, yeah those are not on TATA yet, thinking of the switch, should hold up !!!

With so much bandwidth at disposal with the likes of Bharti, Reliance and VSNL with their cables and stations, I think Indian ISP's specially the major players are hoarding the bandwidth like the Ration or Govt. Fair price shops....lol.

The prefer to site on bandwidth but dont want to give it at a less rate to customers.

most of isp companies in india making fool ppl... they just copy words "UPTO 2 Mbps".... Dont be fool....

Tata Indicom provides only prepaid plan to home customers likes me. So you have to buy a 3 month or 6 month plan beforehand. With 6 months higher they provide assurance that if they ever reduce prices within my subscription period then they will adjust it accordingly. So I bought 6 months plan which is upto end of august. After than only I can change my plan else I loose about Rs.780.

Hello guys... I am from dombivli

I am having Tata indicom connection ; Time-Based plan with 360 hrs and validity of 6 months., also activated night unlimited plan through My Account
n believe me download speed is excellent...whereas upload speed is just 70kB/s ...b'coz of that my share ratio on various torrent client is decreasing

here is the screen-shot of the download speed on night unlimited offer

*img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/VIRENDRA/download-speed.jpg

*img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/VIRENDRA/Usage-1.jpg

*img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/VIRENDRA/azureus-speed.jpg

Now How this plan works :

Here; Time = Money

If you opt for Time Based Plan (360 hrs with validity of 6 months) you have to pay Rs 3,641
but its Value will be Rs. 3,240

see here *img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/VIRENDRA/tata-timebased-plan.jpg

Time = Money
i.e; 360hrs = Rs.3,240 (in your Account)
As you surf internet your time n money will be deducted i.e; 1 hrs = 9 Rs
If you activate Night unlimited offer Rs.99 wiil be deducted = 11 hrs
For six month night unlimited offer Rs 99 x 6 = 11 hrs x 6 i.e; Rs. 594 = 66 hrs

In that way you got only 360hrs - 66 hrs = 294 hrs for six month ( day surfing)

JAAGO BSNL (DATAONE) JAAGO!

Cool, man! That was really helpful. So you are fully satisfied with the connection. How long have you had it?

And can you please do your little mathematics wizardry and tell me how many hours I'll get in the one year plan?

is this scheme valid for lifetime or for just few months ??

Night unlimited plan is only applicable on Time Based prepaid plans

If i buy, 12 months time based package of Rs. 6,877 and if they stop night unlimited service of 2 mbps after 2 or 6 months.....

see, 2 mbps speed varies from area to area.... it depends upon traffic and instruments.... buy before varify....8)

if anybody have tata BB, pls. clarify....

VIRENKAY did.

*img.photobucket.com/albums/v352/VIRENDRA/azureus-speed.jpg

This is awesom

Uploading ober 50kbps which downloads at 233+

ok way to go...

But once agian, as will see the picture when load increases as more and more opt for the unlimited

as all u say tata service is not good and their time based plans are expensive .

I am good with airtel , 256 kbps in day and 512 kbps with unlimited ( 9 pm to 8 am ) in just extra RS 99
