Talk at 10 paise with Excel Power

BSNL Cellone customers ahoy! Now you can talk at dirt cheap rates to any two BSNL numbers of West Bengal and Sikkim (one of which must be a landline) with Excel Power - activation is completely free of cost.

As I have to stay away from home for my studies, I have to shell out big bucks to fuel my connection. This offer has been like manna from heaven. Now I can talk at length with my family. A 20 minute conversation costs me just Rs. 2.

Postpaid customers will have to submit a mandate form to activate Excel Power.

Prepaid users can activate the service by sending an SMS to 3733.

Follow the following steps:

1. Type a message in the following format:
excelp LandlineNo MobileNo
or
excelp LandlineNo LandlineNo
or
excelp LandlineNo WLLNo

Note: Landline or WLL no must be with STD code

Example.
excelp 03322621234 9433094330
or
excelp 0314722221234 03322625678
or
excelp 03322221234 03321041455

2. Now send it to 3733. You will get an acknowledgement SMS like this:
Your request for Excel Power is under processed (sic). the facility will be provided after verification shortly.

3. The facility will be activated within 7 days - took 3 days in my case. A confirmation message is supposed to come which never really came to me, one fine day I found I am being charged @ 10 p. Voila!

Excel Anant and OneIndia customers, however, can’t avail of this facility.
