A day after Reliance Jio's announcement of 6 paisa/minute charge on voice calls to rival networks, the company came out with an important update on the decision. It said it would not charge Jio users if their recharge was done on or before October 9. Those who had recharged their phones before this date can enjoy free calls to non-Jio numbers.
Reliance Jio has announced it would charge 6 paise per minute on voice calls made by its users to mobile phone networks of rivals like Airtel and Vodafone-Idea. The move has left a lot of Jio users perplexed as to why Reliance Jio has taken such a decision. Reliance Jio had, of course, promised its users life-long free calls. But, there also goes a rationale behind this step by billionaire Mukesh Ambani's company.
Jio users will now be charged 6 paise per minute for voice calls made to rival phone networks. Billionaire Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Jio has taken the decision forced by regulatory uncertainty over review of sunset clause for call termination charges. However, the company will also compensate the customers by giving them free data of equal value.
The company claimed that nearly 7 crore 2G users have been on-boarded on JioPhone platform since its launch. It is targeting around 35 crores, such customers.
