Rep Power: 3 | My 1st encounter with a broadband service was facilitated by Dataone! After spending half of my first half of my life using dial-up, anything that offered a speed above 10Kbps would fall under the good category. So quite obviously I am very happy with dataone as a service as it offers a speed way above 10 kbps. Dataone as a broadband service rocks, but if taken in isolation. I mean BSNL still sucks! If you plan to move to Dataone, expected the unexpected... 1. Do not give up you current plan before your dataone connection starts working! I had applied for dataone almost an year back... a month back I became a happy Dataone customer 2. Make sure you get what plan you opted for. By default you’ll be put under Home 250 with 400MB of download. Any further download will cost you Rs. 1.40 / MB! Which is bloody costly! 3. And when they say first 2 months free... it means that only the rent is waived! You’ll have to pay for the extra downloads! I landed up paying a bill of Rs. 10800 cos I did not notice these points thinking sarkari hai... cheap theek hi hoga. I opted for Home 500, was given Home 250. I bindas downloaded stuff thinking first 2 months are free... landed up paying a fortune... Rs.10,000 is a still a fortune for me, if not for you :| 4. Getting your plan changed is not easy either! Make sure you can run a marathon! I think if you are a normal user, Home 500 is a good option. with 2GB download limit. If you know what torrents are... I think the new Home UL 900 should be good. Rs. 900 rent... unlimited downloads Best of Luck! |
