What are primary and secondary sim? Everyone use jio as secondary sim but recharge in secondary sim not primary sim because many people are using old phone and they have only one slot volte support so if they recharge idea vodafone airtel they cannot active jio sim.
 
This problem is the creation of dual sim phone bcoz of that many people brought two sim card and Avoid having last laugh....:wall::wall::wall:

Due to backlash from customers, and intervention by TRAI, Vodafone now allows you to use your existing balance to activate a pack, however, the catch is that this may be done only before your Outgoing Validity expires, so that means, once every 28 days.

What I could observe is, if we are able to use main balance to activate these packs for Outgoing Validity, then:
Activate using main balance:
Rs 95: Gives back Full talktime of Rs95 and also 500MB data, increases Outgoing Validity by 28 days.
Rs 145: Gives back Full talktime of Rs145 and also 1GB data, increases Outgoing Validity by 42 days.
Rs 245: Gives back Full talktime of Rs 245 and also 1GB data, increases Outgoing Validity by 84 days.

Effectively, for no loss, you get additional 4G data as per the above chosen pack, and the Outgoing Validity increases too.

To use this option, dial *199# on your Vodafone Prepaid and follow the prompts. Choose Combo Plan / Combo Pack and activate one of the above plans. You will get back full talktime and Outgoing Validity will also increase.

Hope this helps all bros who are in a dilemma of what to do. Effective Recurring Cost per month = Rs 0. Initial minimum cost = Rs 95 (considering you have no balance in your account, else initial cost also = Rs 0).

Thank you very much for doing this research, after initial investment the recurring cost will be zero. I will go with 245/84 days pack, don't have patience to deal with this every 28 days.

What to do with the ₹95 balance credited?
We need to use it up in 28 days.
 
But the actual question is : how to recharge any plan mentioned above using the main balance. I did check the USSD menu options but could not find it.
