Nations premier network has decided to bring down the tariff for ADSL connection. It’s inevitable for SLT to bring down the prices as other broadband services such as Dialog Mobile broadband (University student package), Airtel HSPA was given for lower prices.
Most of my friends told me that SLT is offering ADSL for a cheap price in Dayata Kirrulla exhibition. I checked in SLT Net site but nothing was updated. I talked with SLT customer care at 011-255 55 55 and got the ADSL tariffs.
Starter packages which were given at the price of 1000 LKR is now 500 LKR with 1GB download limit. Home ADSL is now 1600 LKR. They have reduced to 1600 from 2500 LKR. Office ADSL package is 5500 LKR.

I got February bill. The old charges had been effective for the first three days and the new charges from 4th Feb for the balance 25 days of Feb.
Comparisons between old and new charges mentioned in this forum (and also in some other local forums) were flawed since comparisons shown were between the old VAT included approximate price and the new base price before including taxes.
In my old bills till end of 2008, for my Home package, the total charge indicated used to be Rs. 2,587.50. It was so because the package then was Rs. 2,250 plus VAT which was 15% till end of 2008.
In January VAT got reduced to 12% but there is a new Nation Bill Tax of 1% introduced from Feb 1. (Another new charge of Fixed Line Service Levy of 10% is only on basic rental and so does not add to ADSL and also not to voice calls charges it appears). Thus for ADSL now it is base price plus 13% or approximately 13% (depending on which basis NBT is calculated). And so the taxes included charge for a month should be about Rs. 1,810/= . (The pro-rated figure on this for 25 days out 28 days matches the charge of Rs. 1,616.14 indicated in my Feb bill).
So about Rs. 210/= less p.m. in the savings envisioned by some.

I have SLT ADSL broadbrand internet connection since a month.If I watch a google video, or CNN news on the web, it stops and start playing again and so on. Some times even a normal web site does not load. Has somebody had such kind of experience?
thanks
Kumar

CNN video buffering is a normal issue. The issue is, your connection speed is low. Call Slt customer care and they’ll look into it.
