Recently Idea, Airtel, Vodafone and Tata Docomo have started charging money for Validity. On one side per gb data cost is decreasing and on the other side this Operators are charging for incoming calls, from the time Jio has started other operators are not earning much and have started loosing lots of its users as they are not able to provide as good plans as Jio.To tackle this situation they are targeting people which are out from Jio's radar for example:- People who are using 2g phones or people that do top up of Rs.10 or Rs.20.
Earlier Idea, Airtel, Vodafone and Tata Docomo used to charge Rs.250 for 1gb data per month but after Jio entered the market they were charging the same amount for 1gb data per day. This shows that to which extent this telecom companies were looting us.
Now Users of Idea, Vodafone, Airtel and Docomo do not get lifetime Validity even if they have a talktime, to increase validity you have to do a monthly recharge to increase your Validity by 28days. This companies have done it to create monopoly and all this three Operators have almost the same plans so that if you go for any service provider, you will hardly see any difference in plans. Once your Validity is over you won't be able to make any calls and if you do not recharge after that, then within 15 days you will stop receiving incoming calls and if you do not recharge within 90 days then they stop providing any network to your number meaning your sim is almost dead.
Recharges:- Recharge for Idea and Vodafone are starting at Rs.35 which will give you some talktime, data and a Validity of 28 days. Whereas there's a recharge of Rs.23 for Airtel users which will only increase the validity by 28days, there is also a plan of Rs.35 which is the same as that of Idea and Vodafone. In Airtel’s 35Rs. plan they are charging 2.5p/sec for calls whereas Idea and Vodafone are charging 1p/sec in their Rs.35 plan. There are other plans of Rs.65 and Rs.95 but they give 28 days Validity only but you might get more talktime and data.
People have complained against these Telecom operators to TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority Of India) but TRAI was helpless as they cannot interfere in what plans the companies are providing. But TRAI has ordered them to send SMS to the users and inform them about the validity and suggest plans correctly. TRAI had also told the operators not to stop connection of users having minimum talktime but I don't think they will do it.
What can we do?
If your primary Sim is of Idea, Vodafone, Airtel and Docomo then Recharge with 3 monthly, 4 monthly or 6 monthly packs as you get all the benefits like 1gb data per day and so on. If you have a secondary sim of this Operators then port your sim to Jio or BSNL as Jio does not have have such kind of Validity system and BSNL gives 6 months Validity on Recharge of Rs. 36. Last secret trick is that you can message your service provider that you want to port your Sim and they will ask the reason for porting you simply have to say because of Validity, they will increase your Validity for free, this trick has worked for most of the users but i cannot guarantee it. That's all for now if you have any queries then feel free to ask them. For more such content keep visiting us.
