Jio, BSNL, Vodafone Idea and Airtel increasing tariff from 1st December

I hope they won't increase more than Rs 50 for 30 days.

We expect they will increase Rs.100 for 3 months/84 days

Hopefully, that ain't happening. Even if it increases by ₹100. They would bait customers with ₹50 discount coupons like Jio is doing.

I think this hike has some tactical support from the government too considering the manner this has been implemented.

My Idea number is due for recharge on 20th. I was planning to recharge today. I saw the 398, 1.4gb/day +5gb with UL calls for 84days yesterday. Now it's no longer there

Edit: Plans are available now. Looks like the servers were down. I recharged last night and still got the benefits.

But if they have that kind of brain, they won't be in this situation now.

When other operator's started minimum 35rs recharge in 28days BSNL started advertising urging other user to Port in BSNL. look at this old tweet below

But after 6 months BSNL themselves increased 36rs recharge to 74 .. and previously they used to give 6 months incoming validity after plan expires.. but now they give only 7 days incoming validity after plan expirey also If you don't recharge in those 7 days ur main account balance will lapse.

They are already doing that.
There's also Double Data Offer (1GB + 1GB) on ₹399 Recharge. With ₹50 Voucher, it becomes ₹349

They have no uniform tariffs for all customers. Recently Recharged Rs 399-Rs50. I got 1GB + 400 mb per day in Airtel App.

I need an alternative. I don't want to use any of the telecom operators.

Satellite phones are the only alternative if you want voice connection on the move, if you want it only indoors then WiFi with VoIP works too.

This price hike will do good for sure. We will have a better alternative very soon.
