please don't ask me the terms that are involved, coa i dunno what they are and i don't know whats (1:2)/(1:4)/(1:8) is, gonna ask them next time when i go to pay the bill

i hope u find this post useful

The ratios could stand for proportion of bandwidth alloted to download & upload speed.
So for a 256 kbps (1:4) connection, you would be getting 64 kbps upload.
Just a guess.

thiswhole pre-paid and post-paid thing is such a big farce..
there is nothing like pre-paid in hathway atleast.
i had opted for the 256 ul pre-paid plan at 1750+tax for 3 months.
the bill was only generated at the end of the month,and there was no restriction of 3 months.

512 UL is not available on Prepaid, it's only available on postpaid plans, explain that

also most of the unlimited plans are on postpaid, there is none in prepaid so explain that as well

ag_prasun · 01-29-09, 08:43 PM

what do you need an explanation for???

you have just seconded the facts that i stated above!!

pushy · 01-30-09, 02:27 AM

dude, next time when u go to hathway's office to renew ur account, do ask them to give u a print out of all the plan available, coz i cannot explain to u what prepaid/postpaid plans hathway has coz i am not a hathway employee.
the reason i put in effort and make those sheets is to give out the info to the users coz the hathway website is not updated with the current plans, heck, go to their website now and see which plans they have, only 3 which is not the case coz they have many plans(check the damn pics).

also when u go their website, there's one unlimited plan listed under post-paid, and rest are all...u only guess...

I'm on a 6-month Freeway Plan and I pay a 'discounted' rate of around 1000 per month. But according to your list I should be paying much less

.

shridipamswap · 02-16-09, 09:08 PM

the ratio system is fake /fooling people
today i got my new connection
plan new easyway128(1:1) but speed is just 10-12 which should be atleast above 100 as per ratio concerns
after conversation with Customer Care they r aware about this and claiming speed(10-12) is perfect......huh.....damn kids!!
thank god i hadnt clear cheque in my account by tomorrow i gonna stop cheque payment
b aware guys!!

shridipamswap · 02-16-09, 10:17 PM

but my plan mentioned 1:1 not 1:4 so it matters a lot

panchabhut · 02-19-09, 01:08 AM

I think u got confused between bits and bites.
1 Bite=8 bits
128 kbps (kilo bits per sec) = 16 kBps (kilo Bites per sec)
against a promised maximum of 16 kBps u are getting 10-12 kBps which is not bad enough

cool_techie_tvm · 02-19-09, 08:04 AM

Maybe he thinks that because he was told 1:1 he should be getting the entire 16 kBps..

blackcatasus · 02-19-09, 08:31 PM

hatway aree looting us

earlier 3 months 128kbs easyway 128 unlimited coasted 1123 rs now its hiked to 1461 rs
and want to know worst part new charges r crap
skyway regular 512 kbps ul costs 1814rs 1 month
freeway flexi 256 kbps ul costs 803rs 1 month
