When last week I enquiry about billing cycle from Jio representative here in Vadodara, Gujarat he told me that billing cycle is 5th and 20th or something every month for every customer.

So I assume they are like provide data according to billing cycle.

But I didn't switch, as my current circle is Haryana and I am coming back to my home after Diwali.

And do not want to mess with Circle change issues.

I myself have fed up with Vodafone data speed.
Will definitely switch to Jio soon.

@Sandy11 , 10 rs plan? Damn that's something I hear for first time.
You don't need to switch circle or anything honestly. The flat I live in is near to life and quite in the corner of my building so I get 1 bar or no signal issue with Jio (J&K SIM). I wanted wifi calling desperately (for calls/sms , I don't care for data as I have wifi and when I go out of building I get fast speed data, just inside the flat is an issue). The problem is 3G/4G is barred in J&K and not surprisingly wifi calling is not avalable in J&K. Now 3G/4G data works when you travel out of J&K but wifi calling still doesn't. A J&K sim regardless airtel/jio works outside J&K(if it's postpaid , prepaid sim of J&K never works out of J&K coz of security issues).

In a nutshell for J&K Sim :

  • Prepaid SIM won't work outside J&K period.
  • Postpaid works outside J&K (calling/sms/3g/4g) but wifi calling doesn't work.

I talked to CC of Jio and they said to change circle and wifi calling will work. Now in J&K you have prepaid/postpaid plans same as PAN India. I travel to J&K and then delhi in and out 4-5 times a year (one time this year coz of covid). I need to keep my number as it is connected to banks and all friends/collegues etc knows my number. I certainly can't have prepaid(even though they provide better savings compared to postpaid) as J&K Prepaid sim won't work outside J&K and Delhi prepaid SIM won't work inside J&K. It's a mess from last 10 years or so. Hence I need postpaid but I need to save money too. In overall India Jio and airtel (and probably other providers but I haven't tested) provide a special postpaid plan called Rs 10 postpaid (called pre-on-post) plan. this sim works PAN India(inside and out of J&K) which I had. 10 rs I pay every month to keep the sim alive, but you can actually recharge that postpaid sim with prepaid plan(quite awesome right?). I did this 3 yrs ago and have really helped. Now recently I moved but I don't get signal at my new place so what to do? I asked airtel and Jio for network problems but they couldn't care less. All I have left is to put hope on wifi calling which will give me ability to call/sms inside my place in DEL. So I had to move my circle to get wifi calling but that 10 rs plan is exclusive to J&K hence I had to opt for a postpaid plan. As 399 plan has carry forward ability plus some OTT benefits, so I opted for this plan. My sim works flawlessly now. even if I don't have any signal whatsoever, my callling and sms works totally fine with wifi calling with the help of excitel fiber.

@Crazyguy030601 security isn't adjusted? well that's a bummer. Anyways I don't have any other option so...
 
hii, I have no experience with this before and couldn't find any more information.

is there a way to cancel this charge? or do I just have to pay it?
In case of Airtel it needs to be cancelled from Airtel Thanks app. Not sure how Jio works.
 
I took the 399 plan and got a bill for 15 days. Apparently, they are doing an interesting jugglery by splitting OTT charges and telecom charges in the bill and this is sure to have tax ramifications for both customer and these guys.

For 15 days, I got a bill of ₹ 225.62. There is no ebill yet, so I cannot see the detailed bill. I have mailed them for it. But, I can see that bill period charges are mentioned as ₹ 63 and tax on that is ₹ 11.34. I wonder what the rest is about.

My bill cycle ended yesterday, till today no bill from them. Just a bill number with the bill amount. Cannot even download the bill from the website.
 
I received the eBill today. The 'eBill' is actually a statement comprising 2 eBills.

eBill 1: Jio Platforms Limited without my GSTIN
eBill 2: Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited with my GSTIN

Bills seem to be okay. Thinking how best to account for them in my books. I think I should take one bill with my GSTIN as business expense to be paid from my business account, and the other without my GSTIN as personal expense to be paid from my personal account.

Also, I do not own the bill. I can not:

  • copy content from the bill
  • print the bill.

This bill is a confidential document of national importance, I can only see the bill and do nothing else.

EDIT: Workaround

The statement is also available on the My Jio app. I can save the statement as PDF from the phone and that is a statement that I own. I can print and copy content from that file comfortably.

What is the ratio of bifurcation. How much they are showing as Telecom charges (subject to GST) and how much they are showing as OTT charges
 


@phoenix10386 Do you mind letting me know about the offers? Like, Amazon, and disney?
Do the subscription start as soon as you opt the plan, or you can activate it later as well? as i currently have both the platform subscribed already. :p
 
You can activate anytime you want. I have activated Netflix and reserving Amazon for when my current subscription with Amazon expires. It has been running with Airtel since a few years now. However, since last year I have observed that Jio pushes you into 2300 MHz as soon as you start using your phone, that means I get almost nil signal at my location. I have a repeater but that boosts 1800 and 900. So, Airtel works very nicely. Jio used to until last year when they started pushing to 2300 as soon as data was used.

I have checked this. A secondary Jio SIM not using data connects at 1800 and stays at 1800. The moment I set my phone to use that SIM as data, it moves to 2300 and signal quality goes down the drain. So, with this in mind, I can’t quite make good use of Jio, despite offering what it does, since to use Netflix I am mostly connected to my WiFi Hotspot that uses an Airtel SIM, giving me a good 30-40 Mbps as it stays on 1800 if that's a good signal, like it should, not forced into the higher band like Jio, regardless of signal quality. This is at my location. Do not know about pan-india.
 
I recently shifted Jio prepaid to postpaid. The Netflix plan which got activated is 199 mobile only plan.
Is there any method (work around 😅) so that I can watch on my laptop since my phone screen is too small to enjoy the content.
