Discussion Airtel, Vodafone Idea Removing IUC Charges

[sushruta]

I think still Jio is cheaper and better. Unlimited Off-net calls are not primary need of many customers except love birds.

Buddy then me & the customer care ladies (sometimes gents also) are love-birds too because I talk to them everyday more than anyone else...

If I get good speed from jio. I never left jio. Airtel idea vodafone charging more then jio 50/ or 100/ rupaye in plan so if jio not give others network calling it is no matter for customer. Jio plan is better others plan. But I using airtel for good speed.

What about those who have been done recharge before?

What about those who have been done recharge before?

The plan amounts have remained the same. For those who recharged between 03-Dec to 06-Dec will start getting unlimited calls to all networks by default.
Those who recharged before 03-Dec will keep getting previous plan benefits.

One observation by me. Airtel (and VodaIdea) both filled up the gap of 56-day plan which was not existing earlier. However, what they wisely did was, price the plan Rs 399, same as Jio, with data benefits same as Jio (1.5GB/day), but included all Unlimited off-net calls as well. This again puts the ball back into Jio's court. Will Jio reduce the cost of Rs 399 plan now?

Also, a simple math shows that the Rs 599 plan for 84 days is now redundant. Because, (Rs 399 for 56 days) works out to be Rs 199.5 / 28 days, and (Rs 599 for 84 days) works out to be Rs 199.67 / 28 days. Usually, a higher commitment plan should be cheaper, but with the new plan launch, this is not the case, I dont see any case wherein anyone would not opt for Rs 599 / 84 days (unless for convenience).

Airtel plans are kinda weird

Rs 449/56 days with 2 GB data per day with unlimited calling.
Rs 698/84 days with 2 GB data per day with unlimited calling.

With discount voucher you can take 2 GB plan for 2 months in 399. So no-one gonna pick 84 days pack unless they are damn busy.
