Airtel is forcing Amazon Prime on base plans in some cities by increasing plan pricing

[prithu mahajan]

I am just checking airtel app and found this. That they are offering Amazon prime in 589. (499 plan) is it true. Please check the attached photo

Yes they have added Amazon Prime on 499 and 799 plans also but only if you opt for monthly plans and not available under Semi Annual or Annual Plans

Not in Gurgaon it seems.

I don't see any such mention of it - neither on the app nor on their website which is pretty clear that Amazon Prime is only on 999 plans and above.

i guess they are now going to offer different benefits in different cities under same plan with same speed and data specifications?

Here are the screenshots of benefits from my side for both 40 Mbps and 100 Mbps plan

For me the there is only 1 100 Mbps monthly plan showing under Plan Change which is costing 1099/pm and this includes Amazon Prime, strange

[Sushubh]

Broadband Plans in Shimla, Internet Connection @499 in Shimla does show Amazon prime for 999 and above plans.

Airtel revamps broadband plans with 40 mbps, 100 mbps speed

The upgraded broadband plans are reportedly priced at Rs 589 and Rs 943. These were previously priced at Rs 499 and Rs 799.

The cheaper option is to just get Prime directly from Amazon. lol

 

[Sushubh]

i thought the price mentioned was inclusive of gst. now it looks like they just added 100+ bucks to the plan price and included prime in the pack?

 

[Navjot Singh]

Yep. Looks like it.

 

[DaRkLoRdB2]

yes.. same here in patna too.

This is what is Airtel giving here in Chandigarh

Hoping Airtel improves their plan in the area as you people are getting.

589 is same as 499. just that price shown is inclusive of GST.
It was a glitch that 499 plan bundled Prime. The page has been updated. Prime is only available in 999 and above plans. 499 has Airtel Xstream, Wynk, Shaw & FASTag.
