Smile How much are you willing to pay for a 2mbps unlimited connection?

When the 2mbps connection becomes available to bsnl home customers, what should be a nominal tariff in your opinion, taking into account the low internet tariff rates in other countries?

The question is very hypothetical BSNL still not announce 1 mbps UL plan and may be they will not announce 2 mbps plan in near future also otherwise they will feel little uncomfortable to bill 50000-60000 Rs for limited user @ 2mbps plan because they know very well if they declare 2 mbps UL plan then rental should be 4500-5500 Rs compare to the other UL plan ratio so lots of argument will start if they bill 2 mbps limited user 10-20 times high usage charge compare to unlimited plan at same speed.

I think, specially for a customer like me. There is no need of 2Mbps unlimited Plan. I used both the UL Plan of BSNL i,e 750 and 1350. Both the UL plans are very good for surfing but not good enough for Heavy download. I think Home 500 (C, C+ etc) are enough for downloading purpose.

Regarding rate of 2Mbps UL Plan, I can say that "The least is the best'. If they can provide 2Mbps UL at 1500 - 2000, I think many people can afford the plan.

have a look at these:
Broadband from Tata Indicom: Leading Hi Speed broadband internet service provider in India. Apply for super fast broadband internet connection now. Get Hi Speed broadband from tata Indicom broadband

they still have a long way to go for the 1K mark.
Max i would pay is 1.5K

i can download more than enough with night unlimited...and i am getting 20% discount under government employee scheme...so i dont need a unlimited connection...however if there will be such a plan, i can give Rs50 more i.e. 400+50= 450 ...they dont deserve more than this..

wow.. you guys are willing to pay 2.5k for a 2mbps unlimited.. you could get a 6mbps or 8mbps unlimited for 1.5k (30$) in the USA... its really unfair that we have to pay so much more!!

Yaar let them first introduce 2mbps UL for a price between 1k and 2k. Then we can start thinking of reducing that price bracket..
