Reliance Jio has opened its doors to everyone, with Jio’s 4G SIM cards now available at retail outlets across India. After a prolonged trial where only select users had access to the Jio network, starting Monday, 5 september 2016, the services will be free to use for all until December 31.
Though Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) opened its 4G service to most brands like Samsung, LG, HTC, Asus, Lava, Micromax etc; there still were a few left out. This includes iPhone, Xiaomi, Motorola and Lenovo. Now, any user with a 4G-enabled handset is eligible for Jio SIM card.
Reliance Jio SIM card comes with the Preview offer which gives users an access to free unlimited 4G data for the first three months. Users will, however, have to pay for Jio services from January 1, 2017. RIL chairman Mukesh Ambani called this the ‘welcome offer’ that starts September 5.
Other benefits include free voice calling, and no roaming charges for Jio customers forever. Also, Jio customers will be able to access Jio premium apps like JioChat, JioMusic, MyJio, JioMoney etc for free. Ambani claims Jio’s data plans are the cheapest in the world at Rs 50 for 1GB. Reliance Jio prepaid 4G plans start for as low as Rs 19 and goes all the way up to Rs 4,999. The postpaid plans start at Rs 149.
