MTNL Broadband to MTNL FTTH Migration.

MTNL Mumbai unit has launched a new scheme under which MTNL broadband (triband) customer can migrate to MTNL FTTH connection. Why ? MTNL broadband/triband offers speed of 6 Mbps/ 8 Mbps etc. with the increasing number of devices the speed is not being adequate so in a need for speed FTTH seems a better alternative. Because MTNL FTTH offers good speed. Plan are starting from 50 Mbps besides there are 100 Mbps plans. also free calls are in the plans. First Rule The customer building must be fibre enabled by MTNL. that means if the place/building where the customer resides is FTTH ready. ( in case the building is not fibre ready that customer can contact nearest MTNL office with request if there is bulk customer or some good number customer than MTNL will enable the building with fibre service soon) Point 2- The number will change from your existing number e.g If you have a number 282XXXXX. And you want to migrate to FTTH the new number may be 208XXXXX   # What are the charge
