Breaking Jio increasing tariff from 6 December

[Msingh]

So sweet of them to increase plans by 40% to give 300% benefits..

If Jio offers any such thing then it may cripple its network more. And eventually people will be fed-up and those who can afford little extra will move to Airtel which has already shown sign of improvement in data coverage.

Were you able to consume at least 60 MB!? Jokes apart, I have mostly used corporate postpaid before Jio and the voice was definitely fine, but they used to give 2 GB data per month and I wasn't able to utilize even that completely, due to poor 3G coverage, forget 4G!

Correct @Siva .... even 2 GB was use to be too much those days and most of places data was use to damn slow. It was Jio which gave fast speed. I got testing JIO SIM from friend working in RIL and couldnt blve that one can get such speed on mobile.

Before Jio. I used to buy ₹8 on Vodafone and Idea's night 2G plan. Depends upon speed of the operator on that day. I downloaded tv shows and music over 500 mb series every night.

Edit : At day time speed was bad. I downloaded Taylor Swift's 1989 when it came out. I started download at 11 am. The download completed at 4 pm. The album should be around 120 mb.

Now broadband users will increase. Data when outside, WiFi when at home. Dual sims will slowly disappear.

yeah, that will be first impact of this. Dual SIM will be no more and people will start turning WIFI at home. I never turned ON wifi in these years at home unless daily limit is over.

This will give rise to new era of VoIP calls for smartphone users

I am hoping these companies dont hike prices for Broadband.

I cannot believe some people here. How can one forget that we were paying ₹250/GB plan. Even with this hike, it is by far one of the cheapest internet in the world. Tariffs must be sustainable for operators too. Lives of lacs of people depend on these people. These operators not only have their own employees but revenues from towers, diesel, transportation feeds third party mouth too.

One should not be greedy. If you cannot afford the rates, switch to a lower tier plan.
