situ1962 21 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 In that case 100 mb per month is not sufficient.one has to pay extra every month after exhaustion of quota.then it will be Rs10 per mb,which is very costly.so i think the L4 plan is better,as one can browse unlimite for Rs249 per month.

kshah 452 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 I think its time to dump RELIANCE I thought they might be wanting people to move to gsm from cdma hence keeping data expensive. Airtel is offering 50mb for 99. Bucks. Means 2.5 times, what special reliance is offering that user pay 2.5 times? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starnet 7 Report post Posted January 16, 2009 These data charges are a robbery in broad daylight. I was waiting for Reliance GSM launch in Delhi and was thinking that the data download charges will be more reasonable. But they are not. Now my only hope is MTNL 3G. MTNL doesn't offer quality service but they do force these private sector thugs to lower the cost for users. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
