raccoon 53 Report post Posted January 28, 2010 Why not for wireline subscribers?? I really hope BSNL comes out with something similar for wireline subscribers... if it wants to retain them. Have reduced the usage of my BSNL wireline to almost nil after getting RGSM and the Re. 1/3 min plan. Now RCom is cheaper for both talking and wired broadband.

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 But it should come with PPS for Landlines too... If BroadBand never exists, I would have disconnected all my Landlines long before for its huge rent and high call charges.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 Ditto! BSNL's tariffs are now totally uncompetitive. Have almost stopped using it for calls... looking at the tariffs, it seems thats what BSNL wants. However, landline voice clarity is best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
::Hitesh:: 1,763 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 But BSNL's wired line barodband is good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 Yes, its good. The service is bad though... if you ever need it. Thats the only reason why I still have it. Else RCom's BB tariffs seem to be more attractive and also they give some free calls per month. I'm tempted to change; but my dad doesn't want the number to change...
