Airtel First 1 GB 1498 rs then 51 rs/GB (unlimited recharge) for 12 Month – Userlocking Strategy

Airtel in fear of losing users, so they launched new plan of 1 GB 4G 1498 rs with 30 days validity, with 12 month grace period – in that 12 month user can recharge many times of 51 rs /GB 4G..

So users locked for 1 years as they recharged 1498 and forced to use only Airtel

Offtopic:
Already 1199 rs plan for 1 GB 4g with 30 days validity and unlimited calls
So now Airtel is mad and they want to grab users but there plans are higher than 1000 rs, so they’re targetting high paying users, but high paying users are more keen about reliance and most are satisfied with relaince preview offer.

Also Airtel is not able to reach from Relaince jio and users are now complaining Airtel for intentionally doing this, this highly damage Airtel Brand name already….now costliest plans

In Airtel, NO OFFER for recharges already…

Idea is worst among teleco’s blocking calls from Jio in my experience. Airtel and vodafone are also blocking calls from jio ‘many times’, but this idea is blocking ‘every time’.

Funniest thing is the way they are marketing this new plan – Airtel cuts data prices by 80%. ROFL. https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_lol.gif

Worst ever plan by any telecom operator.
They just want to lock customers anyhow seeing Jio’s great success

If they really wanted customers to enjoy data packs then directly they would hav launched packs starting from 51₹
But as you all know Chortel is famous for looting and creating problems for customers.

Only their ads have happy customers not in reality https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_lol.gif

Before airtel announced the seperate data pack for whatsapp and OTA apps like skype, viber and all…that day got more than 1 lakhs port out in Airtel in single day, like that once reliance announce MNP , more than 10 lakhs people port out in first day…

Due to that much MNP requests airtel withdrawed the plan in less than week i think, now real competitor is there, if still Airtel come with mad plans means, no one will use Airtel

Airtel and voda may merge to compete with JIO.

and also this is not good sign because now JIO looks good compare to others but this will create monopoly in telecom and after some time surely JIO will increase prices and we dont have any other option at that time. what relinace do is business not charity . https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_twisted.gif

airtel vodafone can not merge ever they are old time enemies kind of

infact no big player will merge with airtel

now airtel and rjio are big rivals of other telcos

I agree with you on the point that after some time we may find JIO enhancing prices.
Though I have been using an Employee SIM for the last few months but it’s just a matter of time, all these operators would eventually join hands behind the door.

i am sure reliance will tweak and impove or mainain qulaity, because they pumped loads of money, to grab that much investment they need time, so maintaining qulaity is the only option with low pricing..

QoS doesn’t mean anything to them or any telecom provider. Their scale of service is Download speeds and just that. 4G latency should be near 50ms or less but Rjio latencies hover around 100ms. This is acceptable for 3G not for 4G. Data packet loss is high too but who cares? But this is bound to happen as the number of users increase. More users>More congestion>More data loss and poor latencies>Poor service.
