The recent price hike of plans across the country has hit the telecom users hard. The three leading telecom players in India– Jio, Airtel and Vodafone Idea– have increased the prices of the plans by as much as 40 per cent and this has left the telecom subscribers baffled about which is the better telecom network to go for in this scenario. Jio users who were once assured that Jio will always be truly free and unlimited are now struggling with the new IUC charges and revised plans’ prices.
Jio offers an option to queue up your plans but in case you did not queue up your plans before the price hike and find the new prices expensive, here’s what you can do. There is a way to how you can avail Jio plans at old prices. But there’s a catch.
According to a TelecomTalk report, users who wish to purchase the plans at old prices should not have bought any new plan after the price hike. In plain speak, there should be no active plan in the account of the user to avail the plan at old prices. In this case, when you visit the Jio website or log in to the MyJio app, you will be shown the old prices. In case you have already recharged with a new prepaid plan in the last few days then you will not be able to see the old plans.
The report further explains that the subscribers need have to go the Settings option after logging in to the Jio website using their Jio number and OTP. Next, tap the Tariff Protection option under Settings to view the old plans.
