I'm not sure how to get in touch directly
But whenever ,I register a service request the engineer calls me up for a feedback and does his thing
 
I register my request on care@jio email or on 199 and only girl cc call me back. Which portal do you use for registering your request? I also want to talk to engineer.
 
I am facing the same problem as well, here in bangalore. Browsing speed is mostly between 512kbps to 1 mbps, which is not enough if you are using more than one device. Download speeds are good though. I wouldn't be using Jio as my primary connection if not for the free data.
 
Reliance Jio is now taking ages to open, upload, download, stream videos or do anything at all. And I can now see a lot of negative reviews especially of new welcome offer guys in my Facebook timeline and everybody is mentioning that it is now even difficult to browse and open websites.

Jio has some extremely serious problems in their routing and browsing speeds and this is resulting in extreme negative reviews for them nowadays. Most of my friends who have taken up Jio recently (not the LYF phone buyers like us but normal guys who went with preview offer to test out the SIMs) are now saying that Jio's 4G network browsing speed is like 2G speeds of other networks. And I can continuously see the complaints pouring in my Facebook feeds of various friends and relatives nowadays. I had told about the routing issues nearly a month ago when I made this thread but it seems nobody checks feedback in Jio. Their terrible network and routing issues have now made their network similar to 2G in spite of being a 4G network. If the routing and network issues remain like this, I doubt any of the welcome offer would shift to Jio in the long term. A 20 Mbps connection does not make any difference if the real world browsing and normal internet stuff is like 500 Kbps.

Hope somebody is listening in Jio and they fix these routing issues at least in the FTTH lines if not the 4G lines. I am more interested in their broadband/FTTH connection and hope they fix all their network issues before that launch. Jio 4G is now a lost cause in the current form.
 
This would continue to be like this till 31st Dec,you have to realize that the amount of freeloading is insane...
Things would start to stabilize when people would have to pay for what they are using right now..Besides it's not like you are paying anything..so complaining isn't right IMO :/
 
@volcano619 If you check this thread, it was created around a month ago when there were no free preview customers but only a handful of LYF phone users. The slow browsing speed, Youtube streaming problems etc. have been since the start i.e. since the last 4 months since I took up the network. The speedtest speed is still decent. I did a speedtest right now and it is still showing 12 Mbps download and 6 Mbps upload speed. So, their speed or amount of freeloading is not an issue. If it was an issue, the speedtest speeds would have been very low.

But I am saying about real world performance such as browsing which are taking ages. It was bad from the start but now it is terrible. Even broadbandforum.co is not opening for me at the first instance on many cases. Overall, the internet browsing is behaving like a dial up or slightly higher connection (at best performance is similar to a 512 kbps connection). The download speeds are still relatively decent. So, it seems some issue with their routing and network issues and not related to the free welcome offer. Overall, there are some problems with the Jio network. It is good for downloading large files or maybe even torrents but for other real world performance such as browsing even small sites, the performance is incredibly terrible.

This is a genuine feedback hoping that they would fix the issues before launching of their properly. I am more interested in their FTTH plans and waiting for them. I hope this same pattern of terrible browsing and real world performance does not continue with their FTTH lines. Even my 1Mbps BSNL broadband lines provide a lot better connectivity and overall performance when it is stable (my BSNL is never stable where I give credit to Jio) compared to the Jio connection.

@kirti07 As mentioned earlier, I am saying about real world performance. The speedtest speeds are still good and the downloading speeds are also good in some cases. But the real world performance of the network is like a dial up connection. As for its performance in July or June, it was not that great either for the speeds. Downloading was always good but real world performance has always taken a hit since the start. There seems to be some issues in the network rather than the freebies. If it was for the freebies, real world performance should not take a hit as even a couple of Mbps is enough have good real world performance. In this case, Jio has speedtest results of 12 Mbps yet finds difficult in browsing and opening websites properly. Those things work fine even on a basic 1 Mbps or lower connection.
 
A month ago,i had 2 SIMs and my friend had 5 for free just by visiting the store...things were still the same a month ago..
The only time it used to be good was like 3-4 months back when it was closed beta ,people who had bought LYF phones
Anyways right now what you have is a free service being offered on a PAN India basis,im surprised to even see something like this being offered and it's been holding up fairly decent..
And even for the intermittent issues before,we knew what we were getting ourselves into,anything Beta is going to have some issues..
I'm not criticizing your opinion,but saying Jio sucks for a service being offered for free is a bit too much..
