Airtel Launches New FUP Policy to Lure BSNL and Reliance Jio Users

There has been some drastic revamp to the prepaid plans of Bharti Airtel. By a drastic change, we do not intend to refer to revised tariff rates or data limits. Instead, the largest telco of the country has decided that it would now make their plans truly unlimited by allowing a speed of 128 Kbps post the completion of FUP limit. Until now, BSNL and Reliance Jio had been the only company in the Indian telecom sector which were providing users with truly unlimited data with a speed cap post the completion of data FUP limit. It has been some time since the users have been urging the telco to roll out the unlimited data service, now the Airtel users have a reason to rejoice.

For those who’re unaware, Airtel’s unlimited prepaid combo plans come with a per day data cap. For example, take the Rs 199 tariff plan by Airtel which offers 1.4GB data per day. Once the user consumes the 1.4GB, they’ve to either recharge with a separate data pack or have to wait until the clock to turn 12 AM to get the next day’s 1.4GB quota. But now, Airtel will be offering data at 128 Kbps even after the completion of 1.4GB data benefit, making the data benefit truly unlimited. That’s not the high-speed data by any standard, but it will be alright to send and receive WhatsApp messages, which has become a quintessential part of every person’s day-to-day life.
