Use Reliance Jio Fiber Prepaid as backup plan?

[Tekky]

They are truely prepaid & once installed after paying initial amount. can be used as backup.
I mean anyone is forced to recharge or deposit the modem/router back?

199+gst with 7days validity and 1TB is best recharge if main provider goes down.

but it can't be used as a stand-alone plan. I have confirmed from CC, monthly plan needs to be active as base plan in order to use 199 combo as add-on.

That is completely bullshit. No base plan is needed. I have used it myself till February of this year without any base plan. Jio's CC is the worst informed CC. I do not blame those chaps. But its the companies responsibility to provide the documentation and knowledge.

@mikrotik maybe now they changed their policy ? Even the customer rep who comes to the home with the brochures and stuff said the same to me just few days ago..

Because they have to upsell. Moreover if you are taking a new connection then for connection activation you will have to take a monthly plan but after first month you can only recharge with 199

@mikrotik i was thinking the same. that after first month, it may be done so. It seems very tempting i hope they don't discontinue this pack ever.

 

[mikrotik]

What's your usage like every month. Tell me average not your peak

@mikrotik Where is the quote post option ? There is just the LIKE button. Some posts above yours do have the quoted reply option. I have to tag u everytime. weird.

Not more than 500gb-1tb.

airtel seems to be cheapest option currently with symmetric download/upload unlike jio.

 

[mikrotik]

If you have airtel then why even look beyond that?
You won't get reply button for last comment because it is not needed.
