Discussion What was your recharge pre 2016?

This is a hot topic discussed among my friends because of recent hike in mobile recharges. I am curious to know what was your recharge. My provider was Vodafone. I use to recharge ₹14 for 200 mb data a week. Than recharged Top Up of ₹10 everyday and got the night unlimited 2G pack worth ₹8 every night to download content and watch next day. For calling ₹10 was enough for month. Preferred texting on WhatsApp, Kik and Hike anyway over calling. Spent basically ₹400 - ₹500 a month. Before that recharged ₹149 for unlimited 2G data, Yes, that was a thing on with 2 GB FUP on Vodafone. After that speed was reduced where only Opera and UC Browser worked. Spent around ₹20 for calling.

Zee5 Live TV is not working with Tata Play Binge

So I have this weird issue since 7th January.

I have bought (in September 2024) Tata Binge OTT subscription of ₹199 per month and have subscribed to different OTT services like Disney+ Hotstar, Amazon Prime, Sony Liv, Zee5, etc, my aunt uses Zee5 and Hotstar to watch Bengali Serials and I use Amazon Prime to watch Movies, etc.

The problem is, Zee5 suddenly stopped LiveTV section altogether from the Zee5 App on the TV, and when I logged in through the phone and accessed the Live TV channels, it says buy subscription, while being already logged in Zee5, I can watch other Premium shows, even Live News channel, but not Live TV channels like ZeeTV, ZeeMovies, etc.

I first reported it to Tata Binge support, they said that Zee5 app and website is not under their jurisdiction, and when I talked with Zee5 support, they say they are not sure about the issue, they said to record the conversation with Tata Binge support and then submit the recording to Zee5 and then they will forward it to the engineering team and stuff.

I don't wanna play detective so can someone tell me what's happening? Is this a problem from their end of just a bug that I am facing.

Airtel introduced voice + SMS only plans after TRAI mandate; hikes value packs prices

I expect the existing value plans by operators to retain the same denominations and validity, just removing the bundled 2/6/24 GB data so they fulfill the voice and SMS only STV mandate.
Just like I predicted, value plans keep the same denominations and remove the data benefits. Airtel done, Jio and Vi to follow shortly.
Aur maango Voice and SMS only STV 😅

Airtel satellite telecom services ready for India rollout; awaiting Govt approval

"In India, we are waiting for, as you know, the spectrum allocation to be done. Both our stations are ready, one in Gujarat and one in Tamil Nadu. The base stations are ready. So as soon as we get permission, we will be launching in India as well," Rajan Bharti Mittal told in an interview with the World Economic Forum.

Weak Airtel network coverage in my area

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am Anoop , a resident of Jallapur Bewar Mainpuri, and I am writing to bring to your attention the persistent network issues in our area. We have been facing problems like call drops, slow internet speed, and weak signal strength, which are causing great inconvenience to the residents.

In order to resolve this issue, I request you to kindly consider installing a new Airtel tower in our locality. This will greatly improve the network connectivity and benefit all the residents in the area.

I would appreciate it if you could take prompt action to address this matter. Thank you for your attention and cooperation.

Best regards,
[Anoop kumar]

Good News Intra Circle Roaming (ICR) facility launched by DoT

Jio, BSNL, and Airtel users can now make calls using any available network even when their own SIM has lost signal. On January 17, the government launched the Intra Circle Roaming (ICR) facility during an event showcasing 4G mobile sites funded by the Digital Bharat Nidhi (DBN). Essentially, this means users from any network can access 4G services through a single DBN-funded tower.
