Jio Recharge Plan Hike - Effective 3rd July 2024

[Lobogris]

If you are using Samsung phone then look at the 5G Logo. The dark logo = 5G connected and when it fades then 5G disconnected. It all happens because Airtel is having NSA 5G while Jio has SA 5G. NSA 5G runs on 4G as core network and 5G as add-on while SA 5G works on 5G core network.

Another thing Samsung users can do is dial * # 0011 # and it will show the connected bands and if 5G radio is connected it will show Band 78 and 100 MHz bandwidth.

My brother use Airtel sim and this thing is always there in every area where it switches back to 4G but signal shows as 5G but 5G radio disconnects and a faded logo confirms it.

Check the screenshot. Only on Samsung you can see this. When it is disconnected data deducts from pack as it is actually using 4G radio.

5g NSA generally disconnects when the data is not in use to save power and lower congestion. However, the moment you start using data, the NSA connects and you are on 5g if the signal is available.

As they provide unlimited 5g currently. If I recharge for next 5 years will I get unlimited 5g for the next 5 years Even if they discontinue unlimited 5g let's say next year
Asking for jio recharge queue and unlimited 5g benefits

Yes, it will continue if plan had unlimited 5G detailed with it.

But if you have old plans like I am having, it may or may not provide.

Plans recharged after UL 5G launch had Unlimited 5G detailed in plan details so Jio always keep TnC as it is and they will allow you. Only new subcriptions will get affected. Just like they disallow 1.5GB/day plans, they may disallow 2GB/day plans in coming days.

UL 5G will stay for long with plan price increasing to have it. Like in future only 399+ plan will have UL 5G but older plan UL 5G will continue to work.

So recharge done now and stacked or vouchers bought now will keep providing UL 5G and that I can assure on stamp paper.

Which plan do you have?

Which plan do you have?

For a long time like 4 years I used 399/444 vouchers.

Currently 1299_336Days_24GB and UL 5G active. After that 1559 vouchers will start. Before that was using 399/444_84 Days vouchers bought in 2019 at 349/394 with Rs.50 discount coupns Jio offered (If you remember with 399 recharge Jio used to provide Rs.50 X8 discount coupons which we can apply either on recharge or vouchers).

Voucher kitty currently on personal Number.

1. Rs.149 - 20 Days - 1.5GB/Day Qty Left: 1
2. Rs.395 - 84 Days - 6GB Qty Left: 4
3. Rs.399 - 84 Days - 1.5GB/day Qty Left: 1
4. Rs.555 - 84 Days - 1.5GB/day Qty Left: 8
5. Rs.599 - 84 Days - 2GB/Day Qty Left: 7
6. Rs.1559 - 336 Days - 24GB Qty Left: 3
7. Rs. 2399 - 365 Days - 2GB/Day Qty Left: 1
8. Rs. 2545 - 336 Days - 1.5GB/Day Qty Left: 1
9. Rs. 2999 - 365 Days - 2.5GB/Day Qty Left: 2

All the above old recharges and vouchers continue to provide UL 5G. Recently did 395 vouchers recharge to my father's number and UL 5G added in 20 hrs. With older vouchers they credit UL 5G add-on in 20-36 hrs while with new ones it is instantly credited like with 2545 and 2999.

Already family numbers having 15-30 months left on different numbers with recharges already stacked up.

More or less this investment has reaped better result due to nearly 100% hike in tariffs. Even if tariff reduces which has lesser chances as it can stablize but won't reduce much, these will recover my cost.
