I have You Broadband connection, but it has horrible reliability, so want to change my provider. My cousin who lives nearby has Jiofiber and it works great, so i have decided to go with Jiofiber. I am going with 599+GST 30 Mbps plan, postpaid, but I wanted to know what my bill amount would be. Would there be any unnecessary charges tacked on? I know Including GST the bill should be around 705. If there are any other charges then I might go with Prepaid only. Thank you in advance.

Go with postpaid if you will be using it whole year or regularly, you will get zero installation cost for router and stb if opted for. Remember once you opt for stb you cannot switch to non ott plans on postpaid. Bill will be an advance rental and not post month bill like in any other postpaid service and will be tariff plus gst. In prepaid you have to pay installation fees which is refundable but you can switch plans as and when required via a simple recharge. Hotstar’s super variant is on offer with jiofiber, ads and 1080p max.

Disney + Hotstar plan works in 2 Logged in Devices (Moviews,Sports,TV , Specials -All Content) including TV & Laptop.

Bt this these extra 200 packs doesn't contain prime right..?

Only Hotstar, zee5, sonyliv and sunnxt are mostly useful. All others are somewhat useless. Prime starts with 999 only.

Bro , Lionsgateplay is also with Good English movies available in the Regional Language as well. If you subscribe individually
SonyLiv premium given with this Rs.200 plan itself cost you Rs.299 (5 Logged in Devices allowed with Full HD 1080p Resolution).

That is not the case. We can use hotstar on 1 another device too in addition to jio stb.

My suggestion is to be prepaid you can choose 3month ya 6 month connection after that prepaid is best option lowest bill for prepaid is Rs 470 on the other hand same package postpaid 500 u can save Rs30 sometimes it may occur we have vacation out of station you don't want to recharge that prepaid have more benifit than postpaid...you can link hotstar voot prime video Netflix zee5 etc all apps to your jio set top box sometimes we have subscribed apps free from other sources like Flipkart recharge etc I can say all this bcse i have 18 months running jio prepaid.so prepaid is best option

I have the same issue. I have taken the connection on 25-12-2022 after paying Rs. 4275 and opted for 6M plan (Rs.599 + GST). Technically the cycle should end by 24-06-2023. Now I have got a bill of Rs. 825 for the month of June 2023 (payable by 10th July 2023). It is a postpaid plan. So do we have to pay before the next monthly cycle starts?

@Sandhiya Elangovan, what resolution did you get?
