vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted September 25, 2009 ^^^^^^^^^^ Recharge for Rs. 39 and get 100 minutes of STD calling free across India. After the 100minutes are exhausted, charges would be based on your current tariff plan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted September 25, 2009 Actually, as mentioned in the article, this offer is not comparable to the Airtel offer. The Airtel offer is available nationwide whereas the Reliance offer is restricted to the Delhi and NCR regions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ABHRO 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2009 Actually, as mentioned in the article, this offer is not comparable to the Airtel offer. The Airtel offer is available nationwide whereas the Reliance offer is restricted to the Delhi and NCR regions. Airtel offer is totally different than Reliance. Reliance restricts customer to spend money in any one,either STD or Local but not in both. Like after 100 STD min again customer has to go for recharge for 39 which is irritating.While in case of Airtel it is Rs.77 bonus card recharge with bundled offer for STD and Local both(A2A Local:50p,A2O Local:60p,A2A STD:50p,A2O STD:60p) valid for 3 months. So you need not to go to for recharge again and again,once u r done with 77 after that u recharge with good amount of topup and be cool for 3 months.

After the 100minutes are exhausted, charges would be based on your current tariff plan Dear all Plese be clarified that rs39 is a STV and not the STD minutes pack or like that so once a delhi customer recharges with rs 39/- what he gets is 1. if there are any STD minutes from any STD pack, these will be utilized first 2. on making std call , tariff will be 39p/min . this will be apart from 39rs already spend on RC. 3. once 100 minutes of STD calls are charges at rate of 39p/min from core bucket . you will be charged at base/STV rate. 4. in short ,for 100 minutes of std minutes, you have to spend a. 39RS from tariff recharge b. 39 rs from core bucket , to be deducted at 39p/min what is effective rate ?? considering on core balance , you have paid 10.30% tax.

supernova 47 Report post Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) you mean 39+39+tax for getting balance of 39 ~ 80 so it is actually around 80 p /min ??? Edited September 27, 2009 by supernova Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted September 28, 2009 ^^^^^^^^ Absolutely wrong!!!!!!!!!!! When you recharge with Rs. 39 voucher you get 100mins of STD calling free. When you make a STD call it is deducted from these minutes. There is no additional 39ps/min. For Rs39=100mins Therefore 39/100= 39ps/min. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

@mitJ@in 256 Report post Posted September 29, 2009 39 is STV it dont give any minutes, it reduces the STD Calls to 39p upon CAP of 100 Calls. So one needs to recharge 39STV + 39 Core. In short 80p Calls Reliance keep making Janta stupid in different ways... Jai ho RCom Delhi ki.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vvinayakpai 26 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 ^^^^^^^ Confirmed it is 78ps/min. I am very sorry for my wrong posts. The other day when I called up the customer care they gave me a different story. Tday when i called them they clearly mentioned it is a jaadu and not a STD pack. I regret the inconvinience caused to anybody because of my earlier posts. It was not intentional and based upon the information provided by the CC. Sorry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
