Posted by admin on March 3, 2009 in category: Mobile Phones,
India’s 5th largest Telecom service provider Aircel entered into the Karnataka by launching GSM mobile services in Bangalore. Aircel Ltd became the ninth mobile service company to enter Karnataka.
Mobile brands already present in the state are:
GSM: Airtel, Vodafone, BSNL, Idea, and Reliance

Aircel is a joint venture between Malaysia’s Maxis Communications Berhad and the Reddy family-promoted Apollo Hospitals and Indo National Ltd. They will invest Rs 1,100 crore over the next year to set up base stations across the state.
Aircel has been present in circles like Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Himachal Pradesh, West Bengal, Jammu & Kashmir, Bihar, Orissa, Assam, North East, Kolkata and Kerala. Presently, Aircel has a customer base of 16 million, mostly in Tamil Nadu.
Aircel launched with unique tariff plan where call charge for the first minute is Rs 1 per minute and then the rate drops to 50 paisa per minute from the second minute onwards. Its subscribers in Bangalore make STD calls to Kerala and Tamil Nadu (Aircel to Aircel) at only Rs 1 per minute.
Aircel also has an attractive lowest inbuilt ISD tariff of call to Gulf at Rs. 5.99 per minute and call to US/Canada at Rs. 3.99 per minute.
Gurdeep Singh, Chief Operating Officer, said “Aircel will be launching a rich bouquet of VAS services with localised content including a WAP portal page in the local language that would work on any GPRS handset.”
my name is sathi i wanna get information about an aircel network. We can get aircel network at any where in karnataka…..
HI THIS IS JAYATEERTH! I WANT 2 KNOW THAT THE AIRCEL NETWORK OPERATOR WORKS THROUGHOUT KARNATAKA OR ONLY IN BANGALORE CITY?
i want to know tat is aircel has its netwok in banglore only or throughout the karnataka
Is aircel network present only in bangalore or also in other cities of karnataka like mangalore, hasan, mulki etc
dude the network is not good..you cant call airtel or vodafone from around 5 to 11 pm:-)and most of time during day it shows busy when we call airtel and vodafone:)you cant even receive calls from them
aircel is the worst network i have used, i have taken two prepaid connection, always there is no net work at home and office (bangalore)
Aircle networking is not good as airtel and other network, pls. provide proper networking facility to costumers and improve your company.
Pocket internet service is not good in aircel network. Its displays 115 kbps but it requires 10 minutes to open a single page. And more over you cant download any thing, for 2 mb it takes 1 hour.
TOOOOOO BAD in INTERNET SERVICE
messages will not be delivered to Idea and docomo numbers. solve this problem

i m user of Aircel sim i m not getting network in the centre city of gulbarga….moreover calls not go to tata indicom(AP,kerala)…its worst of network in karnataka
Aircel is a Mindblowing network with fastest Gprs, attractive Offers and In Karnataka Most of The Peoples are Switching from other cellular operators to Aircel because of Very good quality network. And i request you watch for 3G Services within 2 Years.
anyone aware of aircel PEEK? i need to buy one. where can i get it in Bangalore?
i am bala… i am using aircel pocket internet… it is very good offer for all internet users… before you access pocket internet, u should get opera browser from http://www.getjar.com for ur mobile model opera is easy and fast browser to use aircel pocket internet…
As many ppl say aircel network is not good and most ppl agree with it but sometimes aircel gprs is so fast that downloading speed will reach 35-40 KBps on any edge enabled handset but this speed is not consistant sometimes its downloading speed falls to 0.65 kbps and sometimes falls to 0 kbps and fails to connect overall internet tariff plans are good and cheap overall internet speed not consistant with huge variations.
I am using aircel 98/- pocket internet from a year to surf & download both on mobile & pc. My experience with aircel pocket internet is not so good. Every month at least 2-3 or more days aircel internet has no network access or temporary network problems. I hv decided to switch to tata docomo finally. It’s download limit [6 GB] is also greater than aircel [2 GB] , i hope it’ll turn out to be a good experience.
Aircel’s Coverage Is Good In Karnataka. And They are Improving To Compete With Major Operators. NEVER EVER GO FOR TATA DOCOMO THEIR COVERAGE SUCKS IN MOST PART OF KARNATAKA.
