> they do not even give dsl plans these days i believe.
Well, I started with
ADSL, but switched to VDSL when I insisted. I had to wait for a month, though.
I have ACT in my area (just after Airtel provided me with VDSL). I don't want to go with ACT for a few reasons.
1. They seem to be down at an average of a couple of days a month. Yet to see downtime here, though. But, I expect some competition between ACT and Jio fiber here. Unsure, if both would resort to cutting each others' fiber.
2. Except for the speed, ACT plans (599, 799, etc) are exactly same as Airtel (to be precise, Airtel matched ACT's plans when ACT launched a few months ago in my city).
3. Launch of Jio fiber seems to be getting closer to my city (Madurai) as it is one of the few cities to get Jio fiber as per the rumors on the internet. I wouldn't want to disconnect ACT right after Jio fiber launches.
So, I'd want to go with Jio fiber when it launches and then negotiate with Airtel.
