Airtel is reportedly revising data allocations for its existing broadband plans. That's according to a new report from OnlyTech, which claims that the company is offer 'unlimited' data on its Basic, Entertainment, Premium and VIP plans. The change is withal to reverberate on the telco's official website, but nosotros should expect to run across that happen sooner rather than later.

Airtel currently offers 'unlimited' data with some of its broadband plans in Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat, but even so, applies a iii,300GB FUP. Once the data limit is exhausted, the speeds are reduced to 1Mbps. It's not immediately clear if such a limit will besides apply across all other circles. However, it's simply natural to expect the company to impose a similar cap nationally, even if it does advertise them as 'unlimited' plans.

The visitor, on Monday, announced a agglomeration of new cobweb broadband plans starting at Rs. 399 per month. All the plans reportedly have 'symmetric upload and download speeds', and offering unlimited voice-calling. Some of the higher-priced plans also offer free subscriptions to a number of OTT streaming apps.

Talking about complimentary app subscriptions, Airtel has seemingly withdrawn the Amazon Prime Video do good for Airtel Xstream Fiber broadband plan subscribers. The company has also removed the Rs. 299 unlimited data add together-on pack from the list of available plans on its website, which is as strong a hint as any that an 'unlimited' data offer may be in the offing.
