vicky2089 8 Report post Posted October 8, 2017 Many Rcom stores have been closed, there voice & chat customer care support is stopped. I am not sure if they are going to shutdown or simply its rumor! Have heard the same from many people , hence worried . Now in a big confusion to port , to which operator. Already have Vodafone ( so idea is out of choice ) BSNL is also not reliable ( my current Voda was ported from BSNL ) Jio no coverage at my place. Only option left is Airtel ( Telenor will be merged with airtel I guess ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted October 8, 2017 Better to port out to other Operator from RCom, if that number is important for you. Actually ChoRCom is NOT closing the towers, the tower companies are closing them as ChoRCom has NOT paid them for a long period. Same for CC as well, which is handled by Tech-Mahindra due to payment over-dues. Link HERE. Actually ChoRCom needs to pay double the payments to CC services Cos, as ChoRCom eats customers' money and its these poor CC persons (from Tech Mahindra here) to get blames from Angry customers. But as usual ChoRCom has eaten their money as well. So the CC situation is NOT AT ALL going to change in near future. Next they are going to eat and blurb the Bank's money as well.

Please check if you can get network in Delhi. I got a Delhi SIM presently on roaming at Kolkata. Went to a main RCom Store in Kolkata for adhaar linking snd bio-metric verification today. The store guy without even asking for any further details point black refused saying that RCom is closing down and not doing any bio-metric verification. After what we faced during CDMA to LTE conversion, this brings fear. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted October 16, 2017 If the Rcom mobile number is important, please port out to some other network. If it's just a tertiary number + not so important and has almost nil balance, then continue in rcom and enjoy the baaki picture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you need to go NorthEast circle, then forget about Vodafone. Even Vodafone+Idea after merging will NOT have a good network in NE. Airtel is the undisputed King in NE circle, with 900MHz (total 8.8MHz spectrum) 2G as well as 3G. Further Airtel coverage will be good, if you use "3G Only" mode in Mumbai, as Airtel has 900MHz 3G (apart from 2100MHz 3G) in Mumbai as well. Further 850MHz and 1800MHz LIBERALIZED spectrum is coming from Tata, around April 2018. Though Airtel coverage is NOT good in Maharashtra, its not bad either. It has 5MHz of 1800MHz for 4G in their hands now. Another 5MHz is coming from Telenor and yet another 5MHz from Tata as well. Airtel retention team is giving UnLimited calls for Rs199 with no data. For Rs349, they are giving Unlimited calls + 11.1GB or more data, depends on how good you negotiate. So better use Jio as main number + Airtel with Rs199 plan as secondary number.
