Exatt has done a complete restructuring of their plans.
http://www.xbroadband.in/html/schemes.htm
There is only a single speed option 256 kbps; this allegedly increases to 512 kbps between 11 pm and 9 am.
I renewed under the new plan; the only difference I noted was that the service was down from 10.30 pm onwards last night and started around 8 am today. Maybe they are doing some testing 🙄 Let's see how it works.
At the bottom of the schemes page; they mention a 20% recurring maintenance charge and 12.24% service charge. It is quite possible that exatt is trying to control the wide variation in prices quoted by distributers and cable operators. Ideally, this should mean that by adding around 30% to the rates quoted on the website, we should get the final price to be charged by the cable operator. However, I always end up paying exactly double the amount quoted on their site; this also happened yesterday. The middlemen are really killing exatt.
Is this the beginning of the end?
