Sad News (Update: Reverted back) Airtel Fiber/Black 200 Mbps plan speed reduced to 100 Mbps while price remains unchanged

The internet is actually better than jiofiber, loaded latency is great, got bridge mode enabled as well.

This particular thing actually everyone who uses Airtel says it.

So basically it is,

Quality internet = Airtel
Good service = Jio

I guess service depends on locality as well.

I guess service depends on locality as well.

Airtel LCO cities usually perform poor compared to Jio when it comes to service. This is with an exception for some good LCOs who really care about the customers and take the maintenance seriously. However, metro cities where Airtel manage the whole fiber stuff themselves, they might be providing better service in those places.

On the other hand, Jio manages the service throughout India themselves without LCO involvement so it's generally equivalent everywhere.

One example:

In my town, the only part Airtel recently outsourced to a third party was OLT maintenance and major line maintenance. However, since it was not done properly, Airtel has now assigned its own team, which monitors the network 24/7. As a result, there is no more downtime. Additionally, they have started offering business connections here. Anyone with business proof can get one. The plan price is the same as the domestic plan, but it includes 10TB of FUP and, instead of OTT benefits, a free static IP. All of this was confirmed by the local Airtel representative.

Yes. Now the website changes are rolled back. 1099 plan again showing 200 Mbps speed.

We don't know whether they accidentally revealed their upcoming plan and now reverted back till some official communication.
