Reliance Jio Fiber Preview Offer Users Discussion

[bigman91]

So I had mailed to [email protected] and got the response. I addressed these issues
1- 199 standalone plan confusion
2- non-satisfactory commercial plans / FUP cap

The conversation for 199 plan is as below :
Me - "I'm confused about combo 199 plan, your customer care staff have misinformed me or at least that is what I assume. Is 199 combo plan a base plan or do I need a prerequisite plan ( bronze,silver etc ) to continue using 199 plan ? If the latter is true then 199 is too expensive for just 7 days along with the additional base plan. "

Jio - "In reference to your first query, the answer is no. There is a stand-alone 199 plan. You do not need another plan for it to work. As I have checked, there is also a silver plan you have in queue. It will be activated once your 199 plan expires."

As for the other query, the response was just Jio marketing about it being "100% fiber, HD voice, TV video calls, smart TV etc etc. makes it a perfect bundled value."

@ponnitheunreal You had the previous dual band white ONT, right?
So why did they replaced your existing one and charged you again when you had already paid ₹4500 for the white one?

@ponnitheunreal - I also replied back to confirm once again if the commercial plan expires, would 199 recharges work.

other routers do not work with Jio except as access point

I have my Jio router connected to a Netgear R7800 via ethernet cable. Works wonderfully.

@alekhkhanna if only bridge mode would have worked it would have been perfect

This is good news. Now I can breathe easy. Don't care about the STB at all.

@bigman91 - that's good news. I Got the stb message today. Didn't bother as I dont need it. Once preview offer stops working will only do 199 plan recharges.

I am having a weird issue since last 30 min. Voice and Data (LAN/WiFI) all are working but red LED is blinking.

I recharged for 199 and it didn't activate for four days until I recharged the commercial plan(Silver). Either we need to get a commercial plan first or there's still certain back-end issues.
