nitink 279 Report post Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Delhi circle. We rcom customers r in a lot of demand. This 299 plan is a special plan for us. Validity is 6 months after which they may increase it by 50 bucks or so . Idea offers same plan for 1 year. Edited October 31, 2017 by nitink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Airtel site indicates unlimited postpaid 20 GB cost as 499 Voda is known to never authorise MNP codes for postpaid customers Very very TRUE. Vodafone never allow to port out their postpaid customers. My friend is having Corp postpaid connections for 4 years (ported from BSNL initially). Now after relocation of his office, Vodafone has voice clarity issues there and he is trying for past 6 months, but that modern East India Co has been denying port out without giving a reason. Now this month, we are going to complaint them on pgportal. Airtel is 10000 times better in this case. Idea is a joker network and has NOT so good network in Delhi, even with 900MHz 3G, due to very very less fiber connected towers. Hell, even Airtel has sh!tty network, which was rectified only after they have add second carrier of 3G (DC-HSPA+ of 10MHz on band 1 2100MHz) there. Airtel (for 3G handset users) or Jio (VoLTE) is better option in Delhi, imho. But Jio data speed differs from place to place there, so please check it initially, without fail.

Openyard 3 Report post Posted October 31, 2017 I'm on a postpaid Reliance connection. If I port out to a different operator, can I do so to a prepaid connection or do I have to take a postpaid connection with the new operator too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nitink 279 Report post Posted October 31, 2017 Jio doesn't have post paid. Also I have 2 jio connections - one with JioFi and the other 1500 phone. I need two post paid connections, so apart from Airtel and idea being not worth it though in Dec.... idea and voda will merge, there r no other options.

zacksanders365 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2017 One big benefit with Airtel Postpaid is the data rollover plan. Unused data is added to next month's data. I don't think Jio or Vodafone/Idea offer rollovers, mostly they just forfeit the data at the end of the billing cycle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, Mukesh Ambani is very much interested in Prepaid customers as he gets the money in advance whereas he discourages Postpaid (for common people) as that leads to outstanding, payment delays and bad debts too.

I had Rs. 110 in my RCOM prepaid 4G SIM, but they deducted that amount for no reason reason. First, they deducted Rs. 60 and then Rs. 30. Rest of the amount deducted for checking a PNR status. Of course they have been doing such things earlier too but they returned money after complaining and since there is no CC, I could not get my money back. I think you should use all the balance of your account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems so. Supposing rcom has plans to retain its 4G subscribers and continue its telephony services, it would be difficult to explain why they said to all of its employees including circle heads that they are on notice period and 30th November is their last working day.

natjay 5 Report post Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) I got to know about the Rcom situation only yesterday when I got a port out message without even asking for it. By the looks of it, it seems that Reliance is shutting down 2G, 3G and DTH while continuing with 4G till it remains profitable. This indicates that 4G is likely to continue as usual while the rest will be stopped. I had hoped to get the official word on this but their CC is out of order. Still, I've been on Rcom since 2006 and on 4G since last year, so I hope there's a resolution to this other than having to port out.

Had they been a little pro active, they cud hv migrated me to a 4G LTE sim and handset but not to be. They have fallen in a self created mess by forcing us out of the cdma network which anil wanted to free for his big bro. I would have happily continued with 4G LTE but the way they shut shop in gujrat and Bengal is an eye opener and in crystal clear terms not worth taking risk with your primary numbers.

Did you have to download the Jio app for it (to get the coupon code) or did you directly go to the Jio store to get the number ported to Jio? I tried the MyJio app but am not able to get this coupon code. It seems you need some Jio ID for the same, which I don't have. So I'm looking for the best way I can migrate my Reliane GSM prepaid number to Jio. I have the Aadhaar card but getting stuck at this coupon code part.

Taking risk on a number which is more than ten years old and that too based on bluffs of ChoRCom is no less than playing a BlueWhale challenge game, imho. Just port out from them and retain that decade old number. RCom will say anything for controlling the dead rolling of their shares. Just remember that (1) They said good bye to their employees. (2) CC (Tech Mahindra) already said good bye to them (from Sep) due to non-payment of dues for years. (3) Even they said, 4G data card business to ENTERPRISE only, with no CustomerCare support, no Retail counters & no own network infra (using Jio's only). (4) They will continue that till profitable -- Why others should choose Rcom over Jio??? So I repeat, if your number is very important, just escape from RCom as early as possible, imho. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

natjay 5 Report post Posted November 1, 2017 Okay, so I sent a fresh port out request a while ago and haven't yet received the code. Is this delay common?

They will give you a new sim and you need to recharge only after 7 days when your number gets activated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
