Queueing Different Jio Plans and recharging through Airtel Thanks app

I am about to port in my number to Jio in next week.

There's an offer on Annual Plan of Rs. 2999/- that instead of 365 days, recharge will be for 388 days.

Also, due to port in, my nearest Jio store will make me do FRC through him, so I would be doing RC of Rs. 239 + Prime Activation of Rs. 99 through him.

So, will I be able to queue Rs.2999 plan to that Rs. 239 plan?

Suppose, date of activation of 239 plan is 1-Jan-23, will 2999 plan continue from 29-Jan-23?

Also, can I do 2999 recharge from Airtel Thanks app to get 10% cashback using Airtel Axis Card? Will I get additional 23 days benefit through it?

Try with small telecom counters.

Jio store will never give free in my opinion.

Don't know about lootel giving cashback to Jio recharge, but your recharges will all get queued up in Jio. No worries there. You can recharge and queue upto 50 times, any plan you want.

What is Prime Activation? I had ported from vodafone to Jio some time back and had the 239 plan as that was the least during the porting process even though there are some lesser plans, cheapest is 149 for 20 days but issue is multiple recharges (18 times for 365 days) which again not an issue as Jio allows queuing 😄 (have some 10 plans in queue now) haven't tried Airtel Thanks app and if it works then 149 with 10% CB would be 134 and per year around 2450 which would be the cheapest 1 GB/day plan across all operators

I guess you can port your sim via jio & get free delivery at home & then can do whichever recharge you want to from any place I think.

I was just checking it out a few weeks ago but the order went through and the next day, early in the morning, the delivery guy was calling me for my location! Still not clear how it works. I am going to port one of my Airtel nos. to Jio in the next couple of weeks. Finally my Airtel Mukt campaign is getting off the ground. Another one to follow in 3 months or so. If the Airtel FB support guy sticks to his word I should be able to use up the main balance in yet another Airtel no. which will be then left to die leaving only 2 nos.

So he didn't came?? I have not done via them but have used similar service via 10digi went fine but we need to take plan via them & not all plans are there. 

It seems via jio we only need to do kyc & later we can do recharge that's how it reads on their website.

Already out of chortel circle & it's really a relief 😅

He came but since I couldn't PORT out then I requested him to cancel the order which he handled competently. I actually wanted to port out to Vi but minimum FRC is Rs 299 which is too high.

Look for chatriwala they usually give 1 month free plan I guess Jio chatri walas are giving same offer too.

They never seem to be around when I need to port out. The short validity of UPC doesn't help.

On mnp plan of rs. 239 , 99rs. For prime membership are waived off by jio.
you can get mnp in 150-200 by bargaining with jio store they still have good benifits or even free in case month end targets of promoters.
for rs. 2999 plan you can do from jio pos lite with 4% instantly and 1-2% from adding via credit cards.

For airtel axis I don't think they will give cb for non-airtel transactions

Let's see how much Jio Store quotes me.

Few days back, the guy at the store told me that charges are the plan which you select.

Good to know about the Prime waiver in case of MNP. Jio Store employee didn't mention anything about it.

I followed this approach when porting to Jio this time. I simply went in and asked if they are running any free port-in offers. Had I not asked for that they usually charge around ₹249 (happened last year). And I got a month's validity by spending nothing.

They flatly refused in my case. Will try with another Jio store.
