I agree with Sudhakar & ssthanu.
Was about to post the same calculations, but they were quick !!
Sudhakar August 14, 2012 at 2:27 pm
ssthanu :
Yes. It costs only Rs.950 in ebay. My god !!!. Rs.558 to Rs.600 extra just for 1508 local minutes, 1508 SMS and 1508 MB 2G data?. Not at all worth.
Just divide Rs.558 by 1508 local minutes, you will get Rs.0.37 as an average (and Rs.0.397 as an average with Rs.600) that you spend for local calls !!!. Waste.
Even if you divide 200 into three parts virtually,
> Rs.200 for 1508 minutes local talkvalue (average Rs.0.132 per minute of call)
> Rs.200 for 1508 SMS (average Rs.0.132 per SMS)
> Rs.200 for 1508 MB 2G data (which is costly than Rs.98 rate cutter which gives unlimited 2G data access – but I think you can only access not more than 500 MB because of WORST AIRCEL EDGE SPEED in a month !!!)
it becomes little worthy. But it is a WORTHLESS OFFER overall.
