If you start download at 0755 upto 0825 ( a 30 minute block ) usage may not be counted. Same way if you start at 0155 and upto 0225 usage will be counted. Sometimes this 30 minute block break, does not work. Try at your OWN RISK> | |

| It will be better not to bank on the half hour slot. BSNL may change it without notice. If you are interested in trying, make sure that you do not make heavy downloads during initial phase. |

| Platinum Member  | This does not mean extention of time. It has been explained in earlier posts. Background BSNL used to get too many complaints of billing during 2 AM to 8 AM. BSNL does not have any method/software to detect exact download during that periods. So they said that all users must reconnect at 2 AM and again at 8 AM to get this window. So if a download started at 1:30 AM that went on till 4 AM, BSNL used to charge the entire usage as chargeable and this led to many complaints. When a reconnection is done (at 2 AM and 8 AM), a new session is logged in the BSNL servers and it was easy for them to detect the 2 AM -8 AM window. But many people failed to do that or did not know that or could not do that. New Procedure What BSNL is now doing is that they are measuring downloads in 30 minute windows at quater-past and three-quarter past ever hour (1:15 AM, 1:45 AM, 2:15 AM, 2:45 AM and so on). That is why you are getting no charge till 8:15 AM. But you should not depend upon this. Neither should you advertise this as a free time by BSNL to your friends. BSNL may change this procedure any time. Remember that this is an indulgence by BSNL and not a waiver. Meanwhile just enjoy what you can.

Rep Power: 9 | ^^ Absolutely. Usage at individual risk However, from my experience, I have found that the 30 min interval starts from the log-in time. So if u have NU and logged in at say 12.32, all downloads till 2.02 are charged and downloads after 2.02 is treated as free. one the other hand, if u have logged in at 12.58, all downloads till 2.28 are charged and downloads after 2.28 only is treated as free. Similarly, if u have logged in at 7.28 then downloads till 8.28 would be treated as free but if u have logged in at 7.31 then downloads till 8.01 only would be treated as free. |
