Sources told us that PTCL has revised its student package’s tariff – increased charges and in addition to this, 4Mbps, 6Mbps and 8Mbps have also been capped by a monthly download limit of 50GB.
PTCL's 1Mbps broadband connection is available in student package as well as simple bundled package. PTCL has revised monthly charges for student package whereas charges for the bundle offer, which gives you 1Mbps connection with 150 on-net free minutes and unlimited 'Keh Do SMS', are same. New tariff is as follows:
Student Package:
- New monthly charges: Rs. 929 (earlier they were Rs. 879)
Simple Bundled Package:
- Bundle package charges are same, i.e. Rs. 999
4Mbps, 6Mbps and 8Mbps Are No More UNLIMITED!
Apart from revising the tariff, PTCL has taken a big step here in capping the above mentioned connections with a monthly usage limit of 50GB.
Seems like PTCL, here, is following WiMax provider by applying this data usage limit. Those who were already using these connections are aware of the fact that 50GB can easily be consumed in less than one week.
So from now onwards, be sure that if you go beyond this monthly limit, additional charges of Rs. 1000 will be applied.
On the other hand you can take it as revised broadband packages i.e. with and without monthly cap. By paying additional Rs. 1000 you go unlimited i.e. PTCL isn't charging/measuring over usage.
So the revised tariff comes out to be:
| Limited Broadband Packages (50GB Download) | Unlimited Broadband Packages |
| 4Mbps – Rs. 2000 | 4Mbps – Rs. 3000 |
| 6Mbps – Rs. 5000 | 6Mbps – Rs. 6000 |
| 8Mbps – Rs. 7000 | 8Mbps – Rs. 8000 |
Note that 1Mbps, 10Mbps, 20Mbps and 50 Mbps are still unlimited.
These revisions will be effective from 1st of August, 2011.
