BSNL 2016 in our Abode Mount Abu.

It's really frustrating to live in a town where there is only one Broadband provider. I’m sure if there were other competitive networks BSNL would have faded out long ago, as customers would have gone to a more reliable source of services offered.
It's the 4 Jan 16 today and I receive a message in my browser have a look at the snap shot I have inserted.

BSNL had made an announcement that all broadband connections will be upgraded to 2 mbps speed. This ingenuity is nothing but attracting people to go for the carrot offered. Please note, “This upgradation is only for the initial 1GB.”
I’m surprised at this move by BSNL, as it has customers that have used their services for donkey’s years. After one receives the notification as shown above that the user has reached the FUB limit the user is given a list for up gradation of Internet speed

Additional Data Transfer quota at higher speed *
Charges in Rs(Excl S.Tax)
2 GB    100
5 GB    200
10 GB   300
20 GB   500
*NOTE: The above data transfer quota will expire after exhausting the data usage quota opted by you or at the end of the month, whichever is earlier. (Service Taxes extra.)

Now as a customer after reading the above message I feel If I don’t take the carrot I’ll end up using a snail connection for the rest of the month. Here is a snapshot of a speed test I ran this morning.

Now all of you looking at my blog and who are using BSNL connection could you give some feedback on your experience. 

Would you be suckered into using the top up plans for speed? 

If not what additional resource would you opt for?

Have anyone used the top up plan, and what was your experience?
