@Prithi Deb bro. Are you getting network issues since the day Earthquake happen? I am getting fluctuating network. But I am unable to register complaint as they don't take complaints when disasters happens.

No issues here.

Does Vi supports recharge queuing? Am already on ₹297 FRC plan. If I buy ₹399. Will the existing plan get overridden?

It didn't support queuing last time I checked (about 1½ year ago). Not sure if it supports now (I doubt it).

Idea, even after merging with Voda, but before full integration, allowed queuing of even different recharges in a different way.

For example, during end of Nov-2019, (about a week before tariff hike & got confirmed tariff hike news) I was in UL calls + 1GB/day plan valid till 23-Jan-2020 (Rs1299 plan, as TN is Idea's weaker circle). I then have done UL calls + 1.5GB/day for 365 days recharge THRICE (Rs1499) considering the news that their Rs14k crore spectrum payout coming after Moratorium around the same time. What happened was surprised me. They have broken 1.5GB/day to 1GB/day pack and separate 0.5GB/day packs. That's I have 0.5GB/day valid till 23-Nov-2022 end, PLUS 1GB/day valid till 22-Jan-2023.

Idea used to be not bad, when they were alone. They gave some decent fight even in their weaker circles and bought 3G and 4G spectrum and provided VoLte there. It is Voda that spoiled them, by introducing their awful cluster by cluster approach and ZERO investment in weaker circles. It is not surprising that, the queuing benefit is now removed.

Vi doesn't support queueing of recharge. Both plans will work simultaneously. What a stupid revenue losing move.

Because of no queueing, VI is losing 1-2 days revenue from me because I tend to forget to recharge on due date.

But many ppl will recharge on the last day just like me. They save a lot.
