@dextermorgan I am getting services are being degraded notifications from My JIO app regularly but there is a footnote Please ignore if you have already recharged So I think they are throwing common notifications/SMS to everyone.

yeah but my calls were not getting connected. was getting "call ended" as soon as I dailed any number including customer care 198

If its working indoors then it shud work outdoors as well.. shudnt it? What difference does indoor or outdoor make?

Outdoors, you latch on to shitty Band 40 and that makes internet and calls to stop working or you get amazing 200 kbps. But indoors, you latch on Band 5 and with LTE-A 2CA, we can get awesome 80 Mbps real 4G speeds.
With Jio, it's all upside down and messed up.

@dextermorgan this could be a technical issue as if that was due to not recharging at least calls to the customer care would get connected.

You're lucky enough to get those insane speeds unless you live in a village.

It was indeed a technical issue. After call to customer care, its working as expected as well as the correct plan is showing in my jio app

I stay at Dadar in Mumbai.
Inside my office I get 80-100 Mbps because of B5 connected by 2CA on LTE-A. But once I move out of my office, my Pixel connects to B40 and speeds go down to 200 Kbps and calls disconnect within 2-3 ringing bells.

Can you please explain how do you exactly get connected to LTE-A? My device also supports LTE-A but I never get connected to it and hence do not get such speeds or it's area specific?

@pkmishra If your area has LTE-A and your device is compatible then you would get superior speeds. Most probably, Your area don't have LTE-A.

Switching to LTE-A on Band 5 is automatic. We have little control over it.
