Free internet access on Tata Indicom Mobile is HISTORY

Tata has finally done the inevitable. The company was letting their mobile users (both prepaid and postpaid) to access internet on their mobile devices.

It was not very easy to access the web on the small screens of devices they sell in the name of mobile phones.

But it came pretty handy at times to check email and websites.

The service was free till now. They are now charging 10 paisa per 10 kilobyte of usage. That is like pretty darn expensive.

Only access to TataZone is free. Which is well a worthless website to waste your time on.

One more reason to dislike Tata Indicom I guess.

We appreciate valuable feedback from engaged users and reviewers like you.

We always endeavor to provide innovative and useful stuff to our customers through TataZone. Key ones include Movie Ticket bookings, Airline Booking, Music Karoke, etc. on the mobile. These are besides other infotainment services like games, news, cricket, movies, music etc. that we continue to provide.

In order to keep improving, we have to constantly invest in various aspects of this service... Hence the introduction of browsing charge. However, we are still very competitive and would continue to be the best value provider. So that you can always suno apne dil ki awaaz :)

it would not have hurt anyone if you had given 100MB of free usage to the paying customers. this would have enabled people like me to be able to check email in case of emergencies without worrying about the data usage charges. and it would have prevented people from abusing your system.

considering the service is slow as hell and i need to refresh several times to get a web page loaded at times... i would avoid using it. in the end i do want to get a shock in case your system makes an error and decides to overcharge me...
