As per a notice put on www.j...om, non jio calls are going to be charged at 6 paisa/minute with effect 10/10/19. So if you make lot of calls from jio number, recharge it today so that you get the old plan. Make sure to get the old plans which have validity till 1/1/2020 as that is the date when the IUC charges may become zero as per a TRAI circular and no 6p/minute charges would need to be paid.

Just confirm me someone, can I just purchase this IUC pack without subscribing to Jio pack? Would be good option to get 1 gb at Rs. 10 only.

What happens when your call duration is less than a minute? You still get charged 6p?

Calls to Non jio numbers are still free. IUC charges are for those minutes/duration spent to connect your calls from jio numbers to other non jio numbers. Guys, don’t mistake it for minutes you spend while speaking on call, having connected. grinning

No offense but typical Indian mentality u have . First Reliance Jio made us understand how heavily overpriced other companies were. But when minimum charges appear you start criticizing & leave Jio 😂😂 By the way before jio ka rate kya tha?

So what’s the final Dimer’s verdict.. my plan expires on 14th.. should I at least recharge with 84 days plan

Nothing can avoid you from incurring charges,

The only best way you can do is recharge any long validity plan and select activate now from my jio > my plans

I have done as my plan is expiring on the same date of yours,

NO GUARANTEE, BUT LOGICALLY IT SHOULD WORK

Those who are willing to port out of Jio , do at the earliest.


Chortel and _odaphone is waiting to welcome them with Garland in hands.



This charges were bound to come sooner or later , as no company will like to pay free money to other company.



Jios rivals enjoyed multi thousands of crores rupees in way of connectivity charges for free.



Asshole Trai is trying to let continue the iuc charges to benefit chor companies because of there crocodile tears , without giving a thought how these dacoits looted and continue to loot there subscribers.

I had to recharge multiple times their Add-on pack of Rs. 21 gives 1GB data, now in Rs.10 great move. sunglasses

But 166 minutes of talk per GB is very boring pensive and lengthy process stuck_out_tongue

I understood only ONE word after going through all pages. That is IUC. Some people are so panic and started asking suggestions as if they are in ICU.
One thing is clear , this IUC will put JIO in ICU.

Question to be asked is whether they should apply these charges for already purchased recharges. This 6pc is not something TRAI applied recently so they cannot blame TRAI for it.

Earlier trai proposed zero IUC from Jan 2020 but now they are trying postpone this date.
They think Indian users have not shifted fully to 4g and many users still use 2g.
Jio was paying IUC thinking it will be over after this year but trai changed their mind.
trai is reviewing previous proposed deadline and hearing is there on 18 October related to it.
So jio suddenly starts charging iuc from it’s customers just before trai finalize its revised plans..?
It seems jio want trai to scrap this IUC thing or if iuc exists then they want iuc per min lower than 6 paise.

East or west jio is still best.. i mean who will care 6p per minute.. even they talk lot.. 1gb is bonus.. and very rarely i find none jio customer.. atleast in my
Circle.. who is not jio may goto jio.. i tasted 4 rs per minute for receive call when i had mobile 1st time
. Amd i had nokia 1100 for 6 7k rs i think.. so consider past now its penny as every thing should go high over time.. but tech go down.. income increased lot compared to past 10 years. Even now we have dd and online things to save lit money.. atleast i am not in worries.. maybe some of here haven’t tested those past.. didnt compared 10 or 20 years back life vs now. We have many other issue to debate.. but i saw ling panic post for jio.. just few years back i strugled with 250 rs 1gb 2g plan of Airtel.. i paid but unable use net..to so i am happy customer of jio.. and will be loyal.. they changed the thought thats why we have even discussion of 6p .. else we were gonna discuss 4 rs to 10 rs incoming call per minute..

Now i have the perfect solution, well atleast will work for me.
1) Only jio to Jio call, Vodafone to Vodafone, airtel to airtel, bsnl to bsnl
2) If not, come on whatsapp call, video call, duo video call, skype, or other video call/internet call.
3) If not, come on whatsapp, messenger or whatever chat.
4) If not, come on sms which otherwise was feeling ignored.
5) If not lets write letters and get on old memory lanes
6) If not lets meet and share words, sentences, para, story.
7) If not, f**k off. If someone cannot do above all no need in my life Get lost.

Executive confirmed all plan recharges made today (even plans that go in queue) will not attract IUC charges even if they are activated after October 10..

Guys.. you interpreted this announcement in wrong way..

while going through all articles i understood that If you are calling non Jio number then you will be charged 6 paise per minute till the time its ringing.

calls will still be free to any operator but you will have to pay 6 paise per minute till the time you ringing the other person.

Previous IUC charges were 14P/min. After JIO launched its free services, there were so many calls for many hours per day from JIO to other networks. JIO paid many crores as IUC charges to other networks until Ambani somehow twisted govt hands and made TRAI to reduce IUC charges by more than 50% to 6p/min in the end of 2017.
Other players lost a big percentage of revenue and couldn’t do anything as Ambani has govt in his pockets. So they teamed up together and came up with new plans like monthly 35 recharges. They just threw dead weight off board and this increased their ARPU.
Now JIO also wants to increase its Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) and hence this IUC charges on customers.

Do not worry much and bear with it for some months, IUC charges will disappear.
But get ready to face some other charges because freebie period is over for JIO. Now they need profits and actual revenues.
