sougatadc 358 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Excellent offer. After MTS (hTc Hero), Aircel & Vodafone (iPhone 4), Reliance has come up with this lucrative offer. High end phone with best possible use of data/video calls/SMS/voice calls. Tata is now way behind. I wonder when will they wake up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 Imho, this offer is NOT that great... For the NET_RENTAL of ALMOST Rs1000, they are giving just 2.5GB data <<..OK..>> + 500 LOCAL_Offnet_Mins === Rs150 <<Calculated at 30p for Local call>> (other freebies are just FREE SMS, Onnet_Local, onnet_videoCalls which costs nothing to them)...

amitnsonu 72 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 well the 1799 effective rental 966 is well balanced and not over priced according rcom website 2 GB 3g data costs = 749/- R-R local free = 99/- offnet 500 mins @ .3 p/min = 150/- SMS pack 1 p = 39/- total = 1037/- 300 video calls are extra, Far better plan if we compared with foolish iphone plans of aircel and airtel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) When i posted the info, i was under the "impression" that Reliance has come up with either a "Subsidized/Free" handset with 2 year long term plan similar to what MTS did.. Alas... That's not the "Reality".. First, Reliance CC Guys had no idea what i was talking about when i spoke LG Optimus 2X & "Cash Back Plans". As usual, systems not updated with info. When walked into a WebWorld, a totally "uninterested" lady has this to say.. "Humko kya malum.. Kidhar dusri jaga pata karo.." With quite a few silent/unspoken F words in my mind, asked for the Incharge of WebWorld.. His first reaction... "Aisa to kuchh suna nahi hai.." Finally showed him the Handset Offer Page of RComm Website where this was listed... After 10 minutes of effort, he unwillingly found out the info from their system.. Reliance is selling LG Optimus 2X at Rs 25,990.. That is MRP.. They expect you to bind yourself for 24 months with no handset discount at all... That too with GSM.. I am still scratching my head to find any "logic" in this offer... What really is benefit/motivation for the customer? Why he won't buy an unlocked handset at a lesser price from outside and mix & match his plans as per his need? But when did you last hear "logic" from RComm?

amitnsonu 72 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 is it necessary to buy phone from rcom to get this offer ? if yes then rcom wont be able to sell a single handset... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anandjm 3 Report post Posted June 30, 2011 In May when I was looking to buy an Android handset for a project, I found Optimus 2X being sold for Rs.25000 (after Rs.1000 instant cashback) from some of the local dealers. Considering this I cannot understand the logic of this Reliance "offer". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loypalm 9 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Rajan Bhai, The world makes sense once again!!! I was shocked to hear of such a lucrative offer from RCOM in the first place. As the maxim goes, "if it is too good to be true, it probably ain't" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sougatadc 358 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 I was caught on the wrong foot. Considering Rajan ji's first post, I thought it was an offer similar to that of MTS or AirTel/Aircel. This 'offer' is avoidable, I think now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karthik R 246 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 Agree with the comments here about the cockeyed plans but great device being offered by Reliance nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted July 1, 2011 I think it is different from MTS's offer where the phone was being given free but the tariff was not discounted. Here the phone is being sold for MRP but they are offering discounts in the tariff, so effectively the net cost is reduced where the phone is almost free? On the INR 1799 plan you are effectively getting INR20000 discount so RCOM's logic must be pay INR25000 we give you INR20000 discount so you get phone plus tariff at INR5000. This is still a nonsense offer but the only explanation behind saying money back offer that I can find. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Venkatagiri 53 Report post Posted July 2, 2011 Reminds me of the DAPO offer when one had to pay almost Rs 10000 to 23000 for handsets LG and Nokia 2280 on installment Ofcourse it had Rworld browsing and email all for free use at cdma 1x speed and other gsm phones were just toys.
