Hi to all. My first question after become a member here. Basically I don't like to write paragraphs and makes readers boring. So straight to the questions and will definitely give replies if any additional information is needed.

Questions

1.If i take the annual premium subscription on the JioFiber's registered mobile number in either hotstar app or hotstar's official website, will it automatically reflect on the JioFiber set top box's hotstar account as well?

2.If the answer is no, then what will be the process of activating the premium subscription on the JioFiber set top box's hotstar account?
 
If you are taking JioFiber plans having Disney+ Hotstar subscription then you should be able to login with your Registered Mobile number.
(Super Plan). By paying the difference amount then you can upgrade to Premium.

You don't need to buy Hotstar Premium from their website since in Jiofiber you are getting Hotstar Super in their OTT plans already

Check for other members reply who upgraded like this and then proceed.

Thank you for your response. But the problem is, the subscription which is given by the jio is not the same super plan which is available for the normal user. That's why the subscription is named as 'Jio' instead of 'Super'. If it's the 'Super' plan, then we can have a upgrade option to get Premium subscription by paying the remaining payment. But with this case, one have to pay the full price of the Premium subscription since that 'Jio' subscription is especially made for the JioFiber users.
 
I have already answered a similar question here: https://onlytech.com/community/thre...ar-plan-by-paying-the-remaining-amount.55715/

You can check my replies at Post no. #3 & #7 on that thread.

To summarise briefly, Hotstar do not provide monthly super pack on their platform as of now. The Monthly Super plans are exclusively provided to partner apps. Since you are on a pack which is natively not available on the platform, Hotstar considers you as a new customer rather than an existing customer, hence upgrade is not possible.

However if you buy premium subscription directly from Hotstar using the same mobile number then that plan should take precedence in whatever device you login to the Hotstar app. If you have 2 active plans the higher tier plan will take precedence. This can be verified with the following screenshots.

Yes. As madhan bro mentioned, same mobile number can be used to purchase a premium plan, and it will show both the plans on the account. I currently did this on my account where I get the monthly super plan bundled with ACT and separately purchased the premium plan on the same account. Screenshot below.

Bro, is Prime video basic(lite) or premium with 300 mbps plan? along with Netflix basic.
All new JioFiber/AirFiber plans including 300/500 Mbps / 1 Gbps plans come only with Prime Lite subscription now like mentioned on Jio.com, bro.

I have Amazon Prime (premium) subscription bundled with my JioFiber connection because I had subscribed for yearly 300 Mbps plan when they were providing normal Prime subscription.
