| you are absolutely correct.within 9 days of getting my UL 750 connection i knew i was in big trouble.also i have to keep my PC on 24/7 stressing the components to get maximum BANG.thats why i will be moving to 500 connection next month. BTW 256 *60*60*6=5400 Mb |

Rep Power: 2 | Home Plan 500 have night unlimited. Yes!!!!! 'NIGHT UNLIMITED. That means your biological clock for sleeping time will be disturbed and for this you have to a lots of bill to the hospital. (Though shedular are there still for confirmation at least you have to check onece at 2AM). Thus I think include the hospital bill to your calculation and then draw a conclusion. |

You might be right in calculating the price paid per GB but thats not what most people are after ... by getting an unlimited connection the biggest benefit is peace of mind that you will only be billed a certain amount of money every month regardless of how much you use the internet and its a different story that you can only download so much but not every one downloads movies or music. The problem with our service providers is that more often then not they will send you bills with stupid amounts of money and may be in the end you might get the bill corrected but have you ever thought about the time and energy spent in running to and from their office and the stress? I have always advised everyone to go for an unlimited connection regardless of what they do with their connection to be imune to this billing problem which is so widespread in India. | |

Rep Power: 2 | This calculation is totally illogical. 750UL is calculated on a per day basis, while 500C is being calculated only for the free period. Kindly calculate this on the per day basis and then get post a valid statistic, otherwise let the free hours be there but calculate the power usage etc. for those many hours alone. Surprising how nobody noticed this .... this is just a real example how marketing people dupe people ... by ignoring some thing and focussing on other. 500C continuously has a sword on your head of extra use. 750UL is total peace of mind. No hard feelings, just a post to report the error in calculation which makes all figures illogical. |

Rep Power: 2 |  o m g. H750 is excellent plan. u can surf or play online games anytime in day. for torrent no need to put headache like scheduler. just start whenever u want. stop whenever u want,simple. in H500 plans u have to afraid & continuously check ur usage bcz u have 2.5 GB limit. & that is not enough for surfing.  |

Rep Power: 2 | Title correction Can i change the title, i think it should be 'fooled' rather than 'fool'. Attack on BSNL rather than general public. THE ABOVE CALCULATION IS PERTAINING TO "HOW BSNL IS MAKING FOOL" Quote:

Rep Power: 2 | The above calculation is "may be" how BSNL is making fool. Your approach is slightly incorrect, rather incoherent. This is because you are accounting for only the free hours provided with the 500C as opposed to your taking into account full 24 hours for the unlimited period. When you take into account the extra usage at Rs. 0.8 per MB, it will turn out to be stratospherically higher than the unlimited. Total Download in 1 Day = 256KB/s * 60 * 60 * 24 = 21600 MB Total Download in 2 months (PC FULL ON) = 1265.625 GB FREE DOWNLOAD FOR 2 MONTHS (Night UL) = 316 + 1.5 + 1.5 GB = 319 GB TOTAL CHARGEABLE BANDWIDTH = 946.625 GB Total PC power consumption = 300 W (minimum) per hour Total Power consumption in 2 months (Full ON) = ((300 * 24)/1000)*60 = 432 KWH Total Money(conidering Rs. 4/unit) = 432*4 = RS.1728 Price due to broadband = Rs.500/month = Rs.1000 for 2 months EXTRA PRICE OF BANDWIDTH (Rs. 0.8 per MB/ Rs. 819.2 per GB) = 946.625 GB * 819.2 = Rs. 7,75,475.2 TOTAL PAYABLE FOR TWO MONTHS = 7,76,475.2 + 12.36% (1000 rent added) = Rs. 8,72,447.534 Total Money = 1728 + 8,72,447.534 = Rs. 8,74,175.934 for 2 months = Rs. 4,37,087.767/month Price PER GB (TAKING ONLY THE NO. OF GBs PAID FOR) = 4,37,087.767/946.625 = Rs. 461.732/GB This is the real calculation :: Now all the factors are constant, as in, the number of hours accounted are same, computer is on 24 hours now in both cases, the free GBs have been rightfully eliminated. Anyone having any queries over this calculation, do suggest !! 750UL is the most appropriate!  |

Rep Power: 2 | guyz... just think abt the users who want internet the whole day.. take me as an example... i got selected in HCL Tech and waiting for Joining date.. i want internet the whole day... i am in a town and i dont have any other option other than spending time on net. what would anyone suggest me regarding bsnl plans..??? if i take 500... no doubt, i would end up with atleast 5K xtra bill.. right now, i use internet... the browsing speed is very satisfactory... the only thing is download speed.. even you tube streaming is OK.. u wait for a min, u can see the whole video.. regarding the download of films... if i want a film, i will keep download and sleep at 12 or 1 AM... by the time, i wake up in the morning, it will be over.. so, one film every night... so, if u are a download mad guy.. 500 would be good.. but, for people like me who want internet more for browsing during day time.. then no doubt.. 750 is the best option... i can even have skype video conference and all stuff dude... 32kBps is OK for many issues over Internet.. so, we are not fools at all.. if u have another good explanation... u r welcome to give that.... |

| Platinum Member  | He is assuming free download period only and comparing apples to oranges. My questions are, assuming that some one uses the complete bandwidth available - what is it that you will download to the tune of 160 GB per month? - where are you going to store so much data? Wipe out the previous month's dowloads? - most movies on torrents or RS are in DVix/XVid format (about 700 MB per movie). In 160 GB you will be able to download 234 movies. When are you going to get the time to watch that? So this is a pointless comparison. Use whatever plan is suitable to you.

Rep Power: 0 | my dear friend churpilla has made a nice calculation i.e for plan UL 750 Total download in 1 day is 2700 MB for plan 500 Total downlaod in 6 hrs is 5400 MB LOL !!! Have you ever thought for 500 plan if you download 5400 MB how much you will be billed for that? it is Rs= 2300 for that single day + your data transfer per MB on other 29 days (imagine) + Rs 500 (rental) = minimum 2800+++++++ you count it Similerly for 750 plan you will be billed = Rs 750 now you include this in your smart calculation. BTW it was nice and it may applay for people who want to use 500 plan for one singe day in a month ha ha ha !!! Last edited by avinash3125; 08-08-08 at 03:20 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost |
