Thread: Should I switch to BSNL 750 UL Home plan or continue using 500 C?

Hi friends.
Would you please tell me the pros and cons of BSNL 750 UL for home through your experiences? Actually, I am using Home 500 C plan which is performing well, but I have more browsing works to do, so it's not fitting in my budget. I am thinking of a change with 750 UL, what you guys say?

Upgrade to 500 C+. 2.5 Gb. after free usage, Rs. 200 / GB.

.:Unlimited Home Only:..

I am using UL 750. Here is the speed test result



Pros

1. Unlimited browsing and pleasant browsing experience.

2. No FUP, always 60 -70 KBps download and around 50 KBps upload.

3. No billing hassles. Fixed amount bill irrespective of usage.

4. YouTube videos with some amount of buffering. Still good.

5. Audio chat gives good voice clarity through gtalk.

Cons

Slow speed compared to Home 500 plans.

Not so good enough video chat.

Once you discontinue Home 500, you cannot go back to the same plan as it no longer allows new registration. Hope this helped.

Thanks a lot for the detailed and informative description. I guess Home 750 UL is better on the whole as I want both: Good browsing and downloading under 800 bucks PM.

Always welcome

You can get a 20% discount on usage and rental if the telephone connection is in the name of serving/retired, PSU/central/state government employee.

Just got 750 UL plan. Quite satisfied with browsing-downloading speeds. Thanks for your kind replies, dear friends.
