Rajive Borde August 2, 2012 at 12:24 pm
Can we use any other sim card in mtnl 3g data card or it comes as operator locked ?
Arjun December 31, 2012 at 4:01 pm
Think it is operator locked.
Rajive Borde August 2, 2012 at 12:23 pm
Why MTNL launching half yearly and yearly 3g data plans for Mumbai customers? in delhi thet are giving but in mumbai not? cant understand.
Rajive Borde August 2, 2012 at 12:21 pm
@PD Not possible below 999 because of manufacturing cost is around Rs.750 add marketing and all other cost.
PD August 1, 2012 at 5:21 pm
…Wait until market demand saturate and others reduce their market price below 999..!
Rajiv A August 1, 2012 at 12:25 pm
to milking customers as much as they can, check aircel 3g plans far better from vodafone, airtel and idea
Rajiv A August 1, 2012 at 12:22 pm
+ 1
Rajiv A August 1, 2012 at 12:22 pm
MTNL should offer this 3g data card for Rs.999
Rajiv A August 1, 2012 at 12:20 pm
Quite correct, but bsnl can offer the similar unlimited 3g plans with certain FUP or Higher data limit

MTNL is a metro operator which is providing service at DELHI and MUMBAI only. So that their service area is very very less when compared to BSNL.But subscriber rate is very high.That is average user per an area is high. So that with less infrastructure facilities they can serve a large amount of subscribers.But BSNL can’t do that. If BSNL is providing service in Mumbai and Delhi they can also give such an offer like this..
Also there are so many other issues as they are metro and rural operator..
So don’t compare MTNL with BSNL..

because they paid much more higher amount for the spectram and moreover their network is also good. @Raghu
kamlesh mehta August 1, 2012 at 3:24 am
MTNL 3G plans are really cool
Raghu July 31, 2012 at 9:54 pm
why do not the private operators launch such offers and also BSNL. I really do not understand.
spiderman July 31, 2012 at 9:48 pm
If MTNL can give TRUE unlimited 3G plans, why bsnl can’t give ?
We expecting 100 GB (Post usage 256 Kbps) or without FUP Unlimited plans valid for 30 Days from BSNL around 700 Rs
spiderman July 31, 2012 at 9:45 pm
@Saurabh sinha
For half an hour the mistake was there.. Team telecomtalk corrected it !
@ All
1250 per month(2500 for 2 month) for UNLIMITED 3G in BSNL/MTNL network using MTNL sim sounds good !!
Far far better than BSNL EVDO 750 plan !!
jagan July 31, 2012 at 8:55 pm
No FUP – NO Speed throttling – Total / True Unlimited (Home and Roam) free roam In chennai ? speed throttling ?
Saurabh sinha July 31, 2012 at 7:39 pm

pankaj July 31, 2012 at 7:22 pm

pankaj July 31, 2012 at 7:20 pm
its 15 days for rs 126
Sudhakar July 31, 2012 at 7:13 pm
Buy Huawei modem itself. But you can trust MTNL instead of this BSNL which has already gone to COMA stage in bringing cheap 3G and increasing the speed upto 1 Mbps in landline broadband after FUP in unlimited plans.
Spiderman July 31, 2012 at 6:25 pm
MTNL Why should we buy 3.6 Mbps modem for 1.2k ? For the same price tag Unlocked 7.2 Mbps modems are available in ebay !
Spiderman July 31, 2012 at 6:23 pm
@Sanjay Bafna
