Good start. Such plans will come from all providers very soon. A bit expensive.

Roaming SMS FREE or chargable??? If all roaming calls (incl in and out on on-net roaming) + Roaming SMS is FREE, then I am going to switch to this plan...

I have applied for the plan change and given Security deposit cheque, 10 days back... But after trying various levels, TVS people said that their system is throwing some ridiculous error "Remove 3G data pack first"... FYKI TataGSM has no 3G service/license in TN...

First madurai team forwarded this to Chennai team and Chennai Team also said the same and forwarded to Mumbai Team... Now I have raised this issue to MD Desk and just now got a call from them and promised to resolve the issue and change my plan in three days... I will update here once its done...

According to them, this problem is occurring for existing customers only... If any existing customers of TN has changed to this plan, please reply here about the process to be done...

At last after soo many follow ups and complaints, my plan got changed to this Unlimited1299 plan... Right now I am roaming and will see and report here after seeing the bill...

Further is there any special APN to be used to get unlimited 2G data in this plan??? Now I am using "tata.docomo.internet" and cc is also saying the same...

Well.. I got the bill after the my plan got changed to this 1299 UnLimited plan. Here are my observations:-

1] Looks like there is REALLY NO FUP on voice calls (incl onnet roaming) and Data. They even don't list the details of voice calls and data (2G only in my circle) in itemised bills.

2] The only thing chargeable is RoamingSMS (even during onnet Roaming) at Rs1.50. {I use my BSNL Prepaid number for sending FREE roaming SMS}

3] While in TN (home circle), I have no problem with coverage as TataGSM uses Aircel's network (comparable to BSNL's) when there is no Tata network (away from city and also in-building in cities)

4] But coverage on roaming circle, especially in trains or semi-urban area is an issue - Again my BSNL RoamFREE plan comes to rescue here.

5] Please activate MCA (Missed Call Alert for Rs15) to know the calls missed while in non-coverage area and can call them back on reaching coverage area.

6] Tested this on following roaming circles during last month -- AP, Kerala, Karnataka, Maharastra, Mumbai, CG_MP.

7] I have used default 2G APN "TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET" as per CC advise and I was NOT charged for data on Home and roam. NOT sure about other circles' 1299 plan where seperate APN may be needed.

8] 2G data speed is very much usable + consistent in all circles I have roamed (some times better than BSNL-2G_over_3G)

9] Always select "Manual mode" while roaming, because when selected automatic, phone connects to Idea/Vodafone even where TataGSM has good coverage.

0] If possible get smartphones with Jumbo battery like RazrMAXX or Note2 for good data speed, long battery life -- To get FULL PAISA Vasool from this plan..

P.S. :

Always activate this plan from beginning of upcoming billing cycle and NOT during middle as there is some bug in TATA's sw and you get charged even after 1299 was activated. This happened in my case too...

So Tata_1299Plan + BSNL_RoamFREE_Plan + RazrMAXX is a winning combination for frequent roaming customers... (For high speed data I use EVDO + Verizon Pocket router)
