I have recharged jio till 2020 end so will transfer balance to friends and relatives
 
whatt? :shutup:

I'm currently using Idea,
Have not got this message.
When i checked by dialing *121#,it still shows my validity as of 2034.
My idea Sim was also having validity of 2030 but since last 2-3 days its showing 21st Nov 2018
 
There is a reason operators are discontinuing the lifetime validity plans. Earlier they used to earn even on incoming calls as the calling operators used to pay them for terminating calls on their network but now that the interconnect usage charges have been reduced sequentially from 28p/min to 14/min to current 6p/min and which will finally be 0p/min from Jan 2020, they will actually be in losses if they continue to offer free incoming calls without the users recharging their numbers, because it costs the legacy operators (Airtel, Vodafone, Idea) money to terminate calls on 2G network with circuit switching framework which doesn't apply to Jio since they have end to end IP network on 4G Volte.
