Sad News Airtel, Idea and Vodafone now requires you to recharge with a minimum pack to keep your sim alive

[bkonline9]

Really ? It's showing 28 for me

Might be for new recharges or auto deductions from 1st April it is effective

This is their old policy. You need make atleast one outgoing call in 90 days to avoid disconnection.

Ya plz do otherwise they'll disconnect your sim and force you to take postpaid connection.

STVs/PVs/Combo vouchers offering free data with daily limit (like 1 GB/day, 2 GB/day .. etc), data freebies may be made unlimited with speed restriction to 40 kbps after daily data limits.

3g data speed is much better now, Only Delhi-Mumbai roaming outgoing is chargeable but there is another small voucher which makes it free for 28 days.
With 4g it going to be more attractive.

Has anyone had a +ve experience wherein u were previously enrolled as lifetime validity customer , auto migrated to new framework but confronted matter with customer care or higher ups and later offered revert back to old plan or given some exclusive perks or discounts?

I would not go for BSNL even if it gave same benefits at fractional price, reason being i know that service would be lot worse than airtel or vodafone. Much wiser to stick with private operators who can manage things better with greater focus on customer satisfaction & taking responsibility while handle issues

As i said Where Applicable.
However BSNL is giving much better speed in many areas on H+ network
In many areas people find very low data speed from JiO Airtel or others
So BSNL is not as worst as many think
