Reliance Jio Fiber Preview Offer Users Discussion

Is there any news about multiroom connection? And if I get stb with 850 plan and then switch to 199 for next month, then will i get to keep the stb?

Jio mesh?? Presently not available at any reliance stores.

You have to return the modem & stb on cancelling the connection.

if you recharged with 199, stb apps don’t work.

if you don’t return the modem& stb.
May be they will charge 6500₹.

@bobby_kes - 199 is indeed a base plan as I recharged for it and CC confirmed it as well. You can also check this video from 7:20 about 199 plan. Like you said all commercial plans are being activated, 199 still isn't coz of backend issues as stated by CC.

Looks like not.
Why all plans are automatically activating and only 199 is not activating??
And it’s in seperate section “combo plans”.

Don't be naive man. If it ain't activating, it's pretty much an add on plan.
Easy way is to recharge for another plan, and then do a 199 top up and check.

It could be a possibility. first recharge with a combo plan then opt 199. It's most probably a ploy by Jio to get rid of all the STBs they would have ordered in anticipation of the demand.

if Jio doesn't dangle Rs 199 plan then users with other options would disconnect but if they continue to dangle rs199 plan then they would be stuck with STBs as most users won't opt for Bronze/silver plan

Many peeps like me don't have an option. Airtel in my area is only till 40 mbps. Having used 100 mbps for a year and a half, can't go back to slower speeds.

Fully agree. You can't trust Jio CC as they have practically no idea of what is going on.

Many news websites state that 199 plan can't be used as a first recharge. Some even claim it cannot be used as a standalone plan. Considering the fact that it hasn't activated since Saturday, I don't think it will work on its own. Why don't you try doing a recharge for some basic plan and see if it also gets queued. If it activates, you will know for sure. After a month you can again try this 199 as standalone as it will not be the first recharge.

That's what I'm thinking but I'll wait since I'm not really using net much.

Pretty much everybody is going to agree on that.

The guy on the video says he's on 199 plan though ¯\(ツ)/¯

Is it the wifi extender of jio ? I once inquired about it with cc and they said I can buy it for Rs.8000 from them and that it will be home delivered next day.
