I got tata photon plus in thoraipakkam area of chennai in october-november 2010..initially I was some how happy with the speed as I was using 120 hours per month plan for 882 rs per month(200 rs discount for 12 months)...then I started experiencing the horror named tata..first of all I noticed they will stop showing Time usage 4 days prior to end of billing cycle and when they finally publish they will ad hidden usage later on so that u will end up paying 300 rs more every month unless u stop using tata last 4 days of the cycle to be on the safe side
It was only 2 months that I sorted out this cheating a new shock came 2 me....I have private torrents and private premium accounts and obviously a 1000 rs plan for only 120 hours a month I would need some downloads to make up for the huge and costly tariff....
The shock was Tata blocked te particular 4 https servers that I use and blocked the speed to a point where they do not go above 7kBps even if the speedtest.net shows 1.5mbps...
They not only stopped there they went on to block all torrents at 11 kBps.....that usually gave me 220kBps early morning with my private torrents with extreme seeds..
The surprising thing is tat they now only allow me to watch online videos (they know I have only 120 hours a month)
I have gone through expert troubleshooting of all kinds an warn all the people going for photon plus that after a while you will get ruined and lose your money, bcz they will definitely block your speed in case you have premium accounts and private torrents and know how to get good speeds...they will fool you with speedtest.net results while FILTERING your downloads...
Finally I can say that I have faced similar issues with Tata in bangalore and north east as well as my friends are facing similar issues in nagpur etc..
better get a dial up but do not go for tata photon plus....it will suck your money while making you a fool in front of everyone ust on the basis of speedtest.net....that can not be truste anymore, Tata has filtering techniques now...
