New scheme from Airtel: Unlimited high speed internet at Rs 1,999

Reliance Jio has given upstart telecom operator Reliance Communications a run for its money. The Mukesh Ambani-led telco’s 4G LTE services have been welcomed by consumers who are looking to upgrade from their 2G connections in areas where 4G is available. Jio’s rivals, however, have not sat idle while Jio shook up India’s telecom sector. While Vodafone India and Idea Cellular tried to match some of Jio’s offers and expand their own offerings (4G data on select plans for as low as Rs 45), others such as Airtel and BSNL went in an entirely different direction by combining old technology with new.

What is the real value for your money?

Airtel has for years remained in a dominant position when it comes to telecom data plans and with Airtel Extreme, it seems to be making sure that subscribers are aware of its dominance as well. While there is no doubt that Airtel remains one of India’s best data providers, it must also be noted that Airtel Extreme is one of India’s most expensive data plans. At Rs 999 per month, it costs three times more than many of its competitors who offer similar benefits. And yet, there are customers who stick to Airtel because their network provides them with just what they need – but at a price which makes sense. Only you can decide whether you think Airtel’s most premium plan offers value for money or not.

Is there anyone who isn’t worried about how much data they’re using?

Now, with so many of us trying to squeeze all we can out of our data plans, it’s hard to worry about your phone’s data consumption and not feel paranoid. Well you don’t have to be. Airtel’s new product ‘Extreme’ helps you use WhatsApp without worrying about overusing it. To do that, BSNL (that’s who runs Airtel in India) has bundled all your data into a single pack where 1GB is counted as 40 minutes of conversation time on WhatsApp and other related apps like Viber and Line also use some amounts of data.

Is there a cheaper alternative to Jio and Reliance’s ‘free’ plans?

Reliance Jio and Airtel’s free plans have made headlines for their ‘unlimited’ data. However, a popular hidden catch that no one talks about is how much you’re actually allowed to use per day. Jio has been more upfront in declaring their data usage limit — around 4GB per day (i.e. around 42GB per month). But Airtel’s ‘free’ plan has some serious caveats — subscribers are only allowed unlimited data till they’ve downloaded just 1GB of data each day. Once they cross that limit, they’ll be charged with an additional charge of Rs 250/ GB till next billing cycle. So if you want unlimited high-speed data, then you’ll need to download an average of 2-3GB every single day.

Will you pay Rs 999 for 3 GB on this plan by Bharti Airtel?

The company claims that users can make unlimited calls to other Airtel numbers across India and enjoy free incoming calls. Additionally, you’ll also get 3 GB of 4G data at high speeds and access to Airtel’s Wynk Music app – all for Rs 999. What do you think? Will you shell out Rs 999 for these benefits on a mobile plan?
