ok Guys I just Requested For 1099 Explorer plan 384Kbps/1mbps at night Now i wanted to Know That the CC never told me about the Swift 1099 which is 512Kbps day/512Kbps Night.I am not sure if the Swift 1099 is 512Kbps night or 1mbps can anybody confirm this.The Airtel CC told me there is no Such plan in Delhi when i asked him Today when I asked them again While logging a Complaint They told me the Swift 1099 is very much Present.So i Requested Them If I can Change the Plan they told you can Only Do that after Your Current Request for change from 999-1099 i.e 384kbps/1mbps in night is done.


Now I needed some Help Guys I wanted to know Which Plan to Go For Explorer 1099(384kbps/1mbps night) Or Swift 1099(512Kbps day/ 512kbps night as far as i know)
Sorry for the Long Story

If you are heavy downloader then you can go for the Explorer 1099 plan so that you can put all your downloads @ night. & in the explorer 1099 plan, sunday full day the speed will be 1 mbps which is not available in the swift 1099 plan.

As stated above , it purely depends on your usage , for Delhi as u stated as well u have a bandwidth cap at the Day time of 75 GB .

Ask yourself the following questions .

1) How much do I download & Upload in a month ? [I log on to the Airtel website and check my unbilled usage ]
2) Do I keep my system on 24x7 ? if YES , will I cross the 75 GB (Upload + Download) Limit in the Day time ?
3) By the way , does the Swift 1099 plan have 100 GB bandwidth cap or is it cap free ?
4)If the Swift 1099 Plan is cap free then you have to bargain between speed and no cap to decide which one of the 2 plans are best for u , if both have bandwidth caps and you primarly surf the net / download during the night time then choose Explore 1099 .
5) Just to tell you why I switched to Explore 1099 , check the screenshot below .

Even I have shifted to Explore 1099 plan today!! Yay!! have made the request today hope the plan is changed by tomorrow night!!

Here is what the CC told me which I also believe is correct-

There is 75 gb limit. It includes downloading+uploading+browsing+everything. It includes both day usage+night usage.


After 75 gb is reached Day speed will be reduced to 256 kbps while night speed will remain 1 mbps!!
