750 UL Combo Plan-- Upload Speed

[Kumaran Gp]

Hi guys,
I`m a new customer of 750 ULCombo.. Happy with the speeds as of now.. Got 1 Mbps upto some 15 GB.. Then got 2 Mbps for around 10 GB.. Now back to 512 kbps. 🙁

Anyway, My upload seems to be capped at around 256 which is useless for Skyping..Pls someone clarify what`s the maximum upload speed for the plan??

PS:
Also i looked up in BSNL Website to see any relevant info and got this..

You are not going to get upload speed more than 256kbps (~30KB/s)Ask BSNL to change your speed profile and increase upstream data rate .

@nikhil, thanks for the suggestion.. I asked the JTO here in my place.He blatantly refused saying there is nothing he could do.. He said "We promise only Downstream Speed" and nothing about Upload..So can`t help.. He asked he to call some Regional NIB centre in Kumbakonam (0435-2524700).. They said "Only in fibre,We may get the above said 768 kbps" and not in the ADSL. They also said that ADSL technology Maximum is 256 kbps only????? LOL.. I don`t know what to do..When I contacted the JTO again, He said "I know just to provide connection and no more settings in it??????"What shall I do? Please guide me guys..

Contact the DGM. Fetch contact details from BSNL site / Google.

Upload speed of BSNL has been becoming consistently crappier with time. I used to get more than 500 kbps a few years ago and I increased my plan to 1700 too. But instead the upload speed has nearly decreased to only about 350-400 kbps. Right now my line is again bad as it happens many times every month when you need to bribe even the linemen. But even when it is fine, my upload speed is only about 400 kbps nowadays. I get nearly 30-40 KB per second nowadays through FTP etc. whereas it used to be around 60 KB p/s a few years ago. BSNL broadband lines, service, customer service and plans have only regressed with time. If there were some ethics still left a few years ago, it has become a complete sarkari wasted worthless company now. In Airtel etc. they provide 768 kbps on ADSL so that is a bluff from BSNL when they say about the uploads speeds being too pathetic only due to ADSL.

Everybody who is calling me from BSNL regarding these problems keep on repeating that I wouldn`t get beyond 256 kbps.. Each one seem to have a different opinion on their own.. Some opinions are:

1."As you are in unlimited plan, you will get 250 kbps only"
2."Your Connection is "ASSYMETRIC" You should get "SYMMETRIC"" LoLz
3."If you are close to the exchange, you`ll get more speed"

Irritating MORONS, they don even know what they are talking about.. Someone tell me what i can do further..
