I completed port out from Rcom to Jio but got zero balance (no data or voice balance) though I paid Rs.650 to the gallery fellow. Is this normal? I called up Jio cc at 198 but they said they couldn't find any recharge in my number and that I'll have to recharge again. If so, what was that 650 for? Confused

Airtel is insisting on port out only to their postpaid plans. Has anyone had success in porting to an Airtel prepaid plan? So far, I've ported out one number to Jio. I have another that I want to port to Airtel but the insistence on postpaid is a deal breaker. Vodafone comes across as desperate to acquire new customers but non-committal on specifics. Idea, I'm not sure if it's a good option for Mumbai circle.

Has anyone been able to port out their postpaid RCOM number to a prepaid number of a different operator, and activate the same on the new network? I was asked to pay an inflated bill (almost double of what I usually pay) before the initial port out was done. But so far, it's been 5 days, and I'm still on RCOM. I haven't got any sms regarding the port out status. I'm in Mumbai circle.

Did you have to download the Jio app for it (to get the coupon code) or did you directly go to the Jio store to get the number ported to Jio? I tried the MyJio app but am not able to get this coupon code. It seems you need some Jio ID for the same, which I don't have. So I'm looking for the best way I can migrate my Reliane GSM prepaid number to Jio. I have the Aadhaar card but getting stuck at this coupon code part. Any specific advise in this regard would be helpful. Thanks!

Has anyone recently ported out from Reliance GSM to Jio? A few months ago, I wanted to port out but Jio wasn't accepting port out requests from Reliance. Has the situation changed now? I'm in Mumbai circle.

I'm on a postpaid Reliance connection. If I port out to a different operator, can I do so to a prepaid connection or do I have to take a postpaid connection with the new operator too?

I agree with this 100% Ever since I migrated from CDMA to "4G" voice clarity has been terrible. Whenever I get an incoming call, I have to tell the person on the other side to repeat what he's saying. Voice sounds muffled. Very bad and embarrassing. Data is good but Voice is a big failure.

Can anyone from Maharashtra & Goa circle confirm if your network (data & voice) is working properly? My mobile phone in Mumbai circle is working okay but my dongle from Maharashtra & Goa circle is not showing any signal.

Unfortunately, it seems that way. Just take a look at this discriminatory pricing for dongles (based on Gold, Silver, Bronze users): http://rtn.asia/t-t/19845/rcom-classify-dongle-users-three-classes-4g-upgradation-charge The class system is alive and well, even in telecom!

I upgraded my CDMA dongle to 4G and have been trying to order the 4G WiPod at the discounted price but I keep getting errors and timeouts. Most of the time, the page doesn't even load. Total lack of planning by Rcom.

We have to return the dongle? I didn't know that. You mean, they won't give us the 4G sim for the data card unless we return the old dongle? Please clarify. Thanks.

Can anyone confirm which is the best Reliance dongle to buy right now? 4G Wi-Pod looks expensive at Rs 3000... Pro 3 / WiPod is Rs 1199 but the Rcom website describes it as supporting CDMA bands, so I'm confused if it will work. For those who are migrating from Netconnect, which option should I go for now? Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, it's a huge difference in quality specially when I compare my CDMA experience to this new GSM/4G hybrid. I've used Reliance CDMA for 10 years and all through that, the voice clarity was superb, even during rains. I could hear the sound of a pin dropping or a crow cawing in the background on the other side. Now, post migration, I'm hearing my own voice during calls If this is the network condition in Mumbai then only god knows how bad it's going to be in remote areas. Curiously, my dongle is working quite fast though I know CDMA is going to be officially shut down by tomorrow. However, the 4G dongle is not yet activated.

For the last 2 days, whenever I do a refill into my 4G-migrated prepaid sim, I get an error that says (sic) "Recharge Types doesn't exists!" This error happens only on prepaid mobile recharge. No such errors while recharging dongles. Also, post migration from CDMA to 4G, I'm noticing 3 issues with my postpaid connection: I'm hearing an echo while making calls. That is, whenever I make a call, I can hear an echo of my own voice along with the voice of the person I'm talking to. There's a delay of around 10 sec in sending sms (i.e., when I type a message and press send, the message doesn't get sent immediately. I see a 'sending' notification for about 10 sec before the message finally gets sent). While making calls in the afternoon, I have to try multiple times before I'm connected.

Yes, I'm facing the same issue as well (Mumbai circle). I migrated 2 prepaid numbers from CDMA to 4G. Migration proceeded normally but now, when I try to recharge from the Rcom site, I get an error message like "Recharge values don't exist".
