With a view to the work from home culture to minimise the risk of spreading coronavirus, ACT Fibernet has started upgrading speeds of its broadband subscribers to as high as 300Mbps and providing them with an unlimited fair usage policy (FUP) until March 31. The benefits offered by the Bengaluru-based Internet service provider (ISP) can be opted directly through the ACT Fibernet app. The operator is notifying its consumers about the new offer through an email newsletter and its social media channels.
ACT Fibernet s need to log on to its app on their phones to upgrade their speeds to up to 300Mbps and avail unlimited FUP, the ISP announced through a tweet posted on Friday. The benefits are provided on a pan-India basis -- in all markets where the operator currently provides its Internet connectivity. Furthermore, customers who're on entry-level plans will get a speed boost of 100Mbps in place of 300Mbps.
