The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has ordered all mobile operators to restrict the maximum of 100 Sms/day to cut down SMS spam effects from 27th September 2011. It’s almost a month going to be get over. But now on the occasion of Diwali TRAI removed this restriction so now usrs can send unlimited SMS but now at premium SMS charges.
The users will get benefit of this offer on 26th October.If you have any special pack activated related to SMS scheme then you will loose your SMS scheme benefit for 1 day and you will be charged normal SMS rates per SMS.All private mobile operators have kept 26 October 2011 out of the free SMS scheme. So, if you want to message ‘Happy Diwali’ to your near and dear ones, you will have to pay more. On the other hand, Airtel will charge standard SMS tariffs on 26th October .

TRAI Regulation is really Irritating everyone. And the Mobile operators charge according to their wish and this is like “Adding fuel to the fire”. And Airtel network is worst in providing service to its own customer. They are actually robbing money from customers.
TRAI locking unlimited sms pack. that is not good. so pls try to get old plans.
very useful for everyone
Even though they increased the SMS limit, i still feel that it’s not enough. Maybe subscribing to the Premium SMS is my best option. I hope they still offer this promo.
Yes I enjoyed it a lot Today Trai announced the 200 SMS limit for one number that is too great for peoples like me who share lots of sms with friends
Yeah TRAI increased 200 SMS/day 🙂
Great custom of features again from geekyard. I really love your site.
I think charging extra on these special days is a good idea because most of people will send sms freely to their relatives and friends and struck the whole network. this struck in network can cause many disasters as most of are unable to call even in time of emergency also.
TRAI took this decision for the sake of some telecom companies. If govt. really wants to regulate the marketing masseges then it is not right way… TRAI doin consumer offence..
That was good for people that are being able to send message to their friends and relatives.Great custom of features again from geekyard. I really love your site.
