vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 gr8 news Hopefully Reliance GSM will set the trend like how Reliance Infocomm did a few years ago. They seem aggressively poised to become the number one in the market. And the fact that they are starting with a new network (virtually zero subscriber base), will give them the edge in the mobile telephony market compared to the existing GSM players, provided a little more focus is giving on customer care services.

hritik123 4 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 RCom launches GSM service Mumbai, Jan 04: In a move that could trigger another tariff war among mobile operators, Anil Ambani-led Reliance Communication on Sunday launched GSM services in Mumbai and offered free talk-time worth Rs 900 spread over three months. "New subscribers would get Rs 10 talk-time every day for the first 90 days and has offered tariffs of Re one a minute for local calls and STD would cost Rs 1.50 per minute on any network," Dinesh Gulati, head of Western region, said. After consuming Rs 10 during the day, the subscribers can use top up cards with denominations ranging between Rs 10 to Rs 500 with the same tariffs. When contacted Ambani told reporters, "In 2003, Reliance changed the face of the telecom sector in India. Through our nationwide GSM launch coupled with company's continued focus on our number one CDMA Network, we will once again endeavour to re-write the rules of the industry by offering an unbeatable coverage, quality services and above all the value for their money." Over and above the free-talk time, the Reliance GSM customers will get unlimited calling on Reliance network (both GSM and CDMA) absolutely free between 10 PM to 6 AM through out Mumbai, Maharashtra and Goa, giving access to seven million Reliance phones in the region. The new GSM SIM cards would be available for Rs 25 with a validity of six months, Gulati said, adding the initial plan has been designed keeping in mind the subscribers in sub-Rs 300 mobile expenses. He said the company was working out various other pre-paid tariff plans and would announce during the next three months. Bureau Report Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

@mitJ@in 256 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 GPRS ratesGPRS/EGDE Charges 5paise For 10KB or 11pm to 6am : 0.30 paise per minute 6am to 11pm : 0.60 paise per minute . Many ppl have lots of confusion regarding this. Let me clarify... Former is charges for Reliance Mobile World and WAP Browsing. (Ditto as CDMA Reliance Mobile World Charges, Refer that topic for more details.) For this you will get APN settings OTA (over the air) after First Call on GSM Sim. Later is charges for Reliance Netconnect (Ditto as CDMA Reliance Netconnect) i.e. Internet on ur pc via Data Cable. Same, MDN is Username and Password, for this Make APN Settings in ur Phone and then tether it to PC. Leave all other parameters - blank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vishalmcp 8 Report post Posted January 4, 2009 this is really great news man, but still waiting for such offers in mumbai. Hope Reliance (gsm) would launch the same offer for all the circles. I agree with "vvinayakpai" . Reliance is trend setter & lets see what new trends are set by Reliance in gsm. Hope this would increase competition & the call rates would get reduced.
