abhi.r 95 Report post Posted September 13, 2016 You don't need to do anything - "Jio Welcome Offer" gets activated by itself. Login to MyJio app and you will be able to see you plan. Nope it didnt get activated. Went to Reliance Xpress store from where I purchased the device. He told me that I need to contact customer care and inform them RSN, IMEI and mobile number and then they will activate it. Normally plan is activated automatically, but sometimes subscriber need to call back customer care. So two of my phones are busy dialing customer care numbers since 2hrs 35min (as of now) and I'm bored of their music. They could have option to shuffle various musical tracks so that person trying to contact them don't get bored to death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Call on 1977 and you will be forwarded to customer care within shorter time. Call on 198 early in the morning 5:30 - 6:30 AM will get through within 10 mins.

LTE4G 195 Report post Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) can any body tell me that i was unable to get the email for the myjio activation link. how much time will it take for recceving activation email. Read My experience : http://www.rimweb.in/forums/topic/37866-reliance-jio-sim-activation-related/?do=findComment&comment=331642 It will take approx. 2 hours to receive the link and after clicking it though it will say that it has been verified - you will not be able to log in using email as ID. Solution: Sign in using 'Skip sign in' in MyJio app. Change your password and log out. Go to www.jio.com using the browser. Login to your account using your number 70XXXXXXXX in place of email. Now if a pop up comes saying verify your email - verify using the OTP sent on your alternate number. If there is no pop up - you can update your email in the profile. Once your email appears in the profile email you can either use your number 70XXXXXXXX or email ID as 'Jio ID' and sign in using the same password. Hope that helps !

I just want to add only one precaution to the list. Never use Airtel / Vodafone / idea number as alternate number for otp...

abhi.r 95 Report post Posted September 15, 2016 Jio is throttling their speed. Is this not against Net Neutrality? App download from Google Play store... 20MB took more than 4 minutes. But simultaneously Speed test results shows 35+Mbps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LTE4G 195 Report post Posted September 15, 2016 Jio is throttling their speed. Is this not against Net Neutrality Net neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers and governments regulating the Internet should treat all data on the Internet the same, not discriminating or charging differentially by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or mode of communication. Throttle ?? App download from Google Play store... 20MB took more than 4 minutes. But simultaneously Speed test results shows 35+Mbps Download speed depends on several factors such as server load, node etc. and not merely the ISP. So it varies from site to site and while downloading app from google playstore it also depends that how many user are downloading the same app simultaneously from the same download server.

Actually the sim that came with the mifi was locked to be used in that device, but not vice versa. It supports any jio sim [provided it's not jpo one -- but almost all jpo are converted to jwo by now] and of course it won't support other network's sim cards obviously...sent from my Lenovo vibe P1 using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

man-saturday 32 Report post Posted September 17, 2016 Thanks Kanaga for that clarification. Asked because though they are giving Jiofi devices to customers quite readily, the turn around time for that new Sim activation is quite long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
