India's second largest telecom operator Vodafone India on Tuesday announced free 2GB data for Vodafone customers in Mumbai who upgrade to a 4G SIM for the first time.
The move holds relevance given how telcos are operating amidst cut-throat competition, especially post the entry of Reliance Jio, in order to retain their market share.
“We are offering 2GB data free for our customers to experience the benefits of Vodafone SuperNet 4G and to enjoy unparalleled mobile internet services," Pushpinder Singh Gujral, business head - Mumbai, at Vodafone India said.
Post the upgrade to a 4G SIM, prepaid customers can enjoy the one-time offer of free 2GB data for a period of 10 days which will be added to the customer’s data balance within 2 hours of the SIM exchange. Postpaid customers can avail the benefit till their next billing date, an official statement said.
Customers can activate the 4G SIM card using their existing Vodafone number to SMS ‘SIMEX <your 20 digit new 4G SIM card number>’ to 55199. On receiving a partial SIM number from 55199, customer can send the last 6 digits of the new SIM number to 55199 within 2 hours of receiving the SMS mentioned in the above step to activate SIM.
Customers need to be on a 4G enabled handset with a 4G SIM to avail this offer.
