Good News Trai cuts mobile number port out charges by 79% to Rs 4

[Saj 007]

Last December i ported my mom's Reliance no to airtel from airtel store they told they are not charging port fee but you have to recharge minimum 179 plane from here.

Same in my case too. When I gave port in request in idea store, they charged me 10 rs for sim & told me to do FRC 398 from there after port in completed. But I didn't do that till now.

But retailers are changing 20-50 rs.

But some shopkeepers asking 50-100 rs for MNP sim. Bsnl didn't charged me when I did Mnp. But recently I'm ported to Idea from Idea store & he asked me 10 rs for that.

Yes bro same here

The biggest looter airtel store asked me 100 for MNP simply throw their application into their face & leave

TRAI should make it free or make way for fixed price else won't benefit to users

Even its 1 but in market they charge 100 for sure but damn sure nobody will charge 4

Depends on store

Btwn in jio sim is free but 399+99 compulsory or less than that but plan recharge is compulsory

Airtel also not asking in airtel stores. I changed many number to Airtel . They don't asked any amount. Local stores only charging

In this case 90% looters are retailers...:dodgy:

No ! Telecom giving good commission for new connections and MNP sim card selling compare to recharg
