Wasn’t it Technically always Free. Every time Subscription was Automatically increased.
I don’t think anyone from DD has ever Paid for subscription fee.

Whatsapp was free only in India, outside India people had to pay, but now it is free for everyone.
No more little charges each year
WhatsApp is dropping its yearly charge and will soon be free to all users. The messaging app has traditionally been free for one year, after which users had to pay.
Jan Koum, co-founder of WhatsApp, said at the DLD conference in Munich that the charge will be dropped, and there won’t be any more charges going forward. What isn’t yet clear is how WhatsApp plans to monetise the move.
Free for life
WhatsApp said in a blog post: “As we’ve grown, we’ve found that this approach hasn’t worked well.”
“Many WhatsApp users don’t have a debit or credit card number and they worried they’d lose access to their friends and family after their first year. So over the next several weeks, we’ll remove fees from the different versions of our app and WhatsApp will no longer charge you for our service.”
At the moment Facebook, which owns WhatsApp, uses data and ads to make money, but it’s not going to go down well if the messaging app decides to go down the same route.
WhatsApp isn’t looking to use an advertising-based model though. The blog post added: "Starting this year, we will test tools that allow you to use WhatsApp to communicate with businesses and organizations that you want to hear from. That could mean communicating with your bank about whether a recent transaction was fraudulent, or with an airline about a delayed flight.
“We all get these messages elsewhere today – through text messages and phone calls – so we want to test new tools to make this easier to do on WhatsApp, while still giving you an experience without third-party ads and spam.”
Although the charge isn’t much, and most users are willing to pay – over 900 million of them – it does mean you’ll soon be able to use WhatsApp without having to have any payment details attached to your account.
It looks like the fee is still in place right now, but expect it to be dropped soon – and bad luck if you’ve already paid for this year.
Rather Whatsapp should pay us. Whatsapp founder and his servers gets free videos of all types, free.. free.. free..
Saw this update!
There is B2B concept behind this!
Nothing is free in this world, especially from these mnc companies

I think you should use search option before Post any thread…
When was Whatsapp chargeable on Android anyways?
It always shows chargeable from next year but validity automatically increases by year.
I am using Whatsapp since Nokia’s Symbian OS time and its always been free.
On iOS they used to charge users but since last 1.5 year there also free.
yup it is maybe both threads can be merged."@RAJENDER":http://www.desidime.com/users/219278 wrote:
