Seems like it would be applicable for all the circles except A&N.
Delete449 & 599 Plans are available from 14-11-2020 onwards in all places.
DeleteCan anyone tell me when will I get the unlimited 3.3TB plan in calicut ?
ReplyDeleteFrom 14th November 2020
DeleteCan anyone tell me when will I get the unlimited 3.3TB plan in calicut?
ReplyDeleteBoth plans are available. But 449 is only for new customers and 599 is open to new as well as existing customers.
DeleteAnd now could someone from KeralaTelecom tell me how can I update my plan to 599?
ReplyDeleteI'm an existing BSNL FTTH user
Just submit plan change request online or through BSNL customer service center after 14-11-2020.
DeleteHi, KeralaTelecom.info,
DeleteI can't see this 599 plan in selfcare portal. So what should I do?
Dear Bro, just wait. BSNL is updating their portal. Most probably the new plans will get updated in their portal by Monday.
DeleteDear Bro,
DeleteI have requested for a plan change yesterday night. Will let you all know when it get approved. Looks like for my area, plan change is not automatic
Just contact your local exchange in-charge if your plan change request is not yet completed in Selfcare Portal.
DeleteCurrently my plan is 777,will I be able to change my plan to 599 plan ?
ReplyDeleteYes, but your speed will be reduced to 60 Mbps from 100 Mbps !
Deletebut currently I am getting 50Mbps only in 777 plan
DeleteJust check with BSNL FTTH Helpdesk.
DeleteWe this plan is available to user in erode. Still no update in portal
ReplyDeleteStill 449 plan is restricted to selected cities in Andhra Pradesh and 599 plan is not available in official website.
ReplyDeleteBSNL 599 plan got activated in only some states like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand.
ReplyDeleteI think 599 plan is only for selected states.
Restrictions on 449 plan are removed in most of North Indian States and In South Indian States restrictions are still there.
BSNL is showing partiality.
599 is for everyone... Just wait bro, BSNL will activate the same plan all over India.
DeleteThanks for info.
DeleteIs this news correct?
ReplyDeleteBecause 599 plan got activated in only some states like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand. I think it is for selected states.
Dear Bro, 599 plan is available to all new as well as existing customers in all telecom circles. It means - this plan is for everyone.
DeleteI am not able to see the 599 plan in BSNL website Kerala Circle or in selfcare portal.
ReplyDeleteDear Bro, just wait. BSNL is updating their portal. Most probably the new plans will get updated in their portal by Monday.
DeleteCan we change existing fiber plan into Basic fiber plus plan.?
ReplyDeleteLooks like This plan is not for south india.This plan has been actived in most of the other states,please verify it and notify us @keralaTelecom.info
ReplyDeleteDear Bro, 449 (Promo plan for new customers for first 6 months) plan and 599 plan are available all over India.
DeleteI asked a nearby bsnl exchange.They are not aware and They said didn't get any update regarding this 449 and 599 packes.I am eagerly waiting because Now I need a fiber connection desperately.If 599 plan is available in my area only I can buy a new connection because I can't afford more than 700rs a month and it is unlimited.If i choose any other pack there must be an fup limit but that is not enough for us.Now my expectations are getting faded away because This plan is not shown in the south india states websites and The bsnl also didn't give their employees any update regarding this.
ReplyDeleteHow to report FTTH issues related to connectivity, speed, etc. in Ernakulam district of Kerala? Is there any dedicated customer service center/team/phone number?
ReplyDeleteWhat is the average turnaround time to get the issue resolved?
register complain using bsnl selfcare portal or call on
DeleteBSNL Broadband Helpline
Number '1504' (using telephone)
Number '1800-345-1504'(using mobile)
This plan available in malappuram district tirurangadi telephone exchange
ReplyDeleteYes. These plans are available all over India. 449 is only for new customers whereas 599 is for both new and existing customers.
DeleteWhat is the initial payment required to get the connection
ReplyDeletePlz update about the availability of 599 plan .It's not in self-care portal
ReplyDeleteyes its available and it is quoted as fiber basic plus in 16th page or last page of bsnl plan list.
DeleteIt shows only 14 pages for me selfcare portal.i am from tn
DeleteI think tamil nadu circle has not updated the plan list. Wait for some more days and check again if not then contact the nearby bsnl office. Iam from kerala circle and i have subscribed to the new plan using self care portal and it took only 2 days for the migration process.
DeleteDoes it updated for whole kerala
DeleteDoes it updated for whole kerala
DeleteI don't know if it is updated for whole kerala or not. But it is available in my district kollam and i also reside in a semi rural area. So gradually it should be available in whole kerala irrespective of rural or urban area. I will advise you to wait for few more days because i think the updation will be in a phased manner.

( JasperNovember 24, 2020 at 8:42 PM
I am from TN. I am using the 599 plan )
how is the speed and customer service of this FTTH connection. is it uninterrupted during rains etc..does the internet go down at any time .please confirm
DeleteHello Jose I am using bsnl ftth (directly from bsnl) from April 2019 and have faced 2 disconnections till now and both the the problem was solved within 24 hrs. MY initial plan was 600 gb CUL(50 mbps upto 600gb-rs 849)and my current plan is 500gb CUL(100mbps upto 500gb-rs 777).The speed is good and it is usually between 80-100 mbps for download and 45-50 mbps for upload and the ping is also between 20-40 ms.
DeleteI have never faced disconnection due to heavy rains or strong winds.
BSNL provides ftth connection directly(nowadays very rare) or through local vendor(contractor).
If you want connection directly from bsnl then make sure the modem/ont provided has Ge lan port(supports speed up to 1000mbps or 1gb) and not Fe lan port( supports speed upto 100mbps only). IF you want connection through local vendor then they will provide you with a Ge port ont and also any disconnection or cable maintenance will be done by the local vendor and not by bsnl employees. Since my connection is directly from bsnl and also the ont provided has fe ports, so i cannot choose any plan above 100mbps speed.
why my data package is showing 3.3tb
ReplyDeleteYou can use high speed data upto 3300GB. After 3.3TB, speed will be reduced as per Fair Usage Policy applicable to your plan.
DeleteCan some1 share Plan Id for 449 plan in SDC portal.
ReplyDeleteI can see only the 599 plan (plan id : 704650) in my portal.
(I took the connection in mid Oct, am i eligible for 449 plan)
Any thoughts???
TIA
Dear jaC, BSNL Fibre Basic 449 plan is not available in Selfcare Portal. This plan is exclusively available for new Bharat Fiber (FTTH) customers all over India. Hence option to change existing FTTH plan to 449 plan via selfcare portal is not available.
DeleteMeans, only those customers who took the connection after Nov 14 will get this new offer ryt??
ReplyDeleteOr will they be giving this offer to some1 who took just 1 month before this new offer came into effect??
Yes.This plan is available only to new customers who took their BSNL FTTH connection after the commercial launch of plan.
Deletehi,

DeleteHi i am new user but my first plan that by default bsnl private vendor subscribe is 849 plan in 2nd month can i get this plan fiber basic value
ReplyDeleteYes, you can change ur plan one month after taking connection. Register and use bsnl self care portal to change ur plan only takes 1-3 days for the migration process.
DeleteThe fiber basic (499) plan is only available for new customers and it is not for existing customers ,but the fiber basic plus(599) is for everyone and it is also listed in bsnl selfcare portal.
