Reliance Jio Revises Data Vouchers With Double Data, Additional Off-Net Minutes
Mar. 20, 2020Reliance Jio has revised its 4G data vouchers with double high-speed data access and additional off-net voice calling minutes. From what we can tell, all but one of its four existing data vouchers have been upgraded with the aforementioned benefits, with the sole exception being theRs. 251 ‘Cricket Pack’ that was introduced earlier this year. It still offers the same 2GB daily high-speed data for 51 days, without any off-net calling benefits.
As can be seen from the screenshots of the official MyJio app, the revised Rs. 11 data voucher comes with 800MB of high-speed 4G data, up from previous allocation of 400MB. The voucher now also includes 75 minutes of non-Jio voice calling. Similarly, the Rs. 21 voucher offers 2GB of high-speed data and 200 non-Jio voice calling minutes instead of just 1GB data.
Either way, the aforementioned revisions are, at best, a small relief for customers who are reeling from a series of tariff hikes from Jio over the past few months. Not only has the companyincreased its tariffsat least three times inquick successionover the past few months, but it also recentlyproposed to gradually increase data pricesin the country to Rs. 20 per GB from Rs. 15 per GB currently.
