zanaka 13 Report post Posted May 3, 2016 I am rcom CDMA postpaid user Maharashtra and today received SMS from rcom "As our privileged customer,we are happy to inform you that we are sending the new 4G ready SIM to your billing address on ZERO cost.T&C RCOM" How exactly are they deciding on which customer should be sent a courier and which one should go to a store ?? The way the store people are handing out sims seems more like a part of some reluctant operation, almost felt like they didn't want to hand them out to customers, but they had no choice. I was told to "clear all the pending bills first before the sim can be given". And others simply get the sim through mail. strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BihariSarpanch 20 Report post Posted May 3, 2016 As previously mentioned, I reached Patna today. I had forwarded calls to my alternate Idea number at airport only. On reaching Patna, I saw 1x at airport, so disabled forward made a few calls. But as soon as I moved to other parts of city, network was non-existent. I forwarded all my calls again to idea as soon as I got one or two bars. I visited Reliance Mobile Store, near Saguna More, they had put up a board "No Query regarding Reliance network", that was funny! I entered the shop and told him that despite his board I would like to know the status as there is no network in my phone. He replied that he left franchise of RIM 2 months back. Then I went to Raza Bazar store. They have absolutely no clue, no idea about any tentative date, any SIM, any plan, anything at all. I was told they have no official communication except for the fact that no more CDMA to be sold. This is a classic example and case study of "How to ruin your business". Reliance RTL was the first to launch mobile telephony in the name of SMART in Bihar way back in 1990's. They had an excellent customer base of GSM and when they launched CDMA they almost gave every Bihari a mobile. Even today most of the people, businessman, contractor, student, labour etc everyone has the CDMA one and then SMART as another alternate number. They messed it by choice! People who give anything for such a loyal and vast customer base. Anil Ambani I guess cannot manage it well. There were so many customers at store asking about CDMA and no one knew a word about it! When their 2G network had gone, they had no proper communication to give except for the part that they asked everyone to port out! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All other carriers are vacated for 4g alignment. Resulting in lot of congestion in network here. You will face problems most in Danapur and Patna city area. In all other areas you can make calls in 3 or 4 attempts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abhi.r 95 Report post Posted May 4, 2016 Did Reliance Communications already start operating 4G LTE network in Delhi circle? or they would wait 5-6 months for all CDMA users to migrate and then switch to 4G LTE?

Prajwal Kabra 1 Report post Posted May 4, 2016 Hello Guys, I have one good news and one bad news. Good news is procedure to upgrade to 4G in 9 circles came on official site. Link:- http://www.rcom.co.in/Rcom/personal/4G/4G_overview.html Bad News is for the guys who were eager to do upgrade. As the site mentions that to get benefits of free data, calls, etc you need to do recharge first then upgrade SIMS. So it's dicey for people who upgraded SIMS 1st & recharged later whether they will get benefits or not. Postpaid users not required to do anything. Also it's clear that 1st they will upgrade all users to new sims then they will switch off RCOM CDMA & Switch on 4G later and everyone in these 9 circles will get 4G at same time. So be patient and upgrade your sims, there's enough time for all. Also here the point to be noted is of this 9 circles only 2 are where RJIO has spectrum. So lets see how it goes down the line.
