After the mega Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 season, here we are at the start of another mega sports event, the FIFA World Cup 2018. The state-run telecom operator Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has launched a FIFA World Cup special promotional data STV 149 for its pan-India Prepaid mobile subscribers.

The limited period FIFA World Cup data STV 149 offers subscribers with a massive amount of data benefits. On recharge of this STV, you would get 4GB of high-speed data per day. The validity of the data STV will be for a period of 28 days, which is perfect for the entire FIFA World Cup season. Note that, as it’s a data STV there won’t be any voice or SMS benefits with the pack.

If you have enough account balance in your BSNL connection then you could simply activate the data STV 149 by sending an SMS in the format STV DATA149 to 123 or via USSD by dialling *444*149#.

As we said earlier, the BSNL FIFA World Cup data STV 149 is a limited period offer and is available for a period of 32 days. Thus, you could recharge for the data STV 149 starting 14th June 2018 to 15th July 2018. Also, the price of the STV may differ from one telecom to another. So, please do check the correct pricing with BSNL customer care before recharge.

On paper BSNL’s FIFA World Cup data STV 149 looks great. But in reality, BSNL only has 3G networks across India and a single 4G location. Thus, the speed you get from BSNL 3G won’t match what other rivals offer through their speedy 4G networks.
