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

What about ₹26 plan?

Vodafone 26 plan is only an SMS plan...Not for calling or validity extension...It provides 250 Local + National SMS for 28 days...

All of my numbers are more than 15 years old...My main AirTel number being almost 20 years old...I can't discontinue these numbers now as they are being used in various places...Like AirTel in all the banks, Vodafone number is with my customers, BSNL number (which I ported from AirTel because of the cheap recharge amounts) is with my relatives etc...I know maybe it doesn't make sense to you but since I am using these numbers from more than a dozen years, I can't close any of them...



My main number is AirTel & it's also linked with all my banks, sites etc & I need to do a little bit calling also sometimes to banks, various customer care departments etc so 23 plan is not for me as it doesn't provide any talktime...I am not sure if Vodafone's 24 plan is still there or not...I need to check that...I can use the 24 plan on Vodafone if it still exists as I use Vodafone for incoming only...

Just checked & Vodafone now offering 14 days validity instead of 28 days on 24/- plan...So, there is no use of recharging this plan twice to get 28 days validity in total...Meaning need to recharge the 49 pack...

Reliance Jio announces new all-in-one plans

Jio's new plans are unreal compared to AirTel/Voda...These plans will be launched to completely destroy AirTel & Vodafone...TRAI seems to have forced AirTel & Vodafone to release their plans at much higher cost so that Airtel,Vodafone & Idea customers all port out to Jio...And that is why it seems that, Jio revealed their plans after everyone else...

Do you really think AVOID will sit idle and watch people porting out? They'll start releasing customer specific and revised plans.

AVOID...

They better be hurry because people already started porting out as can be seen on AVOID's social media feeds...

Seriously?

 

[sushruta]

Seriously?

Yes...I have previously wrote in this same thread that people have already started posting their port-out screenshots on Airtel & Vodafone's twitter feeds...

 

[sushruta]

Seriously?

These are all over their twitter feeds...Just a few examples below...

One network is entering into others territory & replying to the customers who want to leave a network...Like you can see in my above screenshot where one AirTel customer mentioned porting to Jio & tagged Jio in his tweet & official Jio account entered AirTel's post & replied that, they would be glad to have him in their network...

This is pretty common these days...I even saw all the mobile operators are replying to a single customer in a single tweet asking them to join their network...These pretty clearly shows that these companies are now desperate to get customers to cover their losses...

P.S. Most people are impatient about everything...Not all people have enough patience like me & you to stick & see what happens...

Yeah.. earlier Airtel & Vodafone-Idea has customer specific "Only For You" plans... but they stopped it now.. hope those are brought back...

If they gave customer specific plans again, they may die soon or they lost faith before Jio. Certainly they can prove network quality(Pure VOLTE & 4G anywhere) after these hikes.
