I just got my number ported from Voda to Jio.

Does anyone know if it’s mandatory to recharge with Rs 99 for Prime Membership ?
I plan to do Rs 459 recharge but not sure about this 99…

Thanks in advance

I’m not a prime member yet.

Just ported.
Haven’t done even first recharge.
Should I recharge with 459 or 99 first?

My region there is no 3G for voda, but we have Jio 4G. So I had to port. Worst part was I had around 400/- balance still remaining. Could not find a way to utilise it, so tranferred it to another number. https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_sad.gif

I got sim when Jio was given out free. I used that time and kept it for long time. Today I took our and did a recharge of ₹399 directly from Amazon . It worked without any issue. Also it shows prime membership in my Jio app https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

Based on feedback from others, the second recharge will get you only 28 days. Never tried personally. Couldn’t risk 399

Thanks Buddy, This was really helpful. I also recharged with Rs.100 but unable to call even though recharge was successful & MyJio app was showing that balance.

I opened Jio.com on PC & used that balance to activate plan. Now all good with my number.

Thanks a lot !!
