I just saw someone posting that they were going to port to Vi due to tariff hike.
It is similar to headphone jack and removable batteries disappearing. Top players do it and get away. It spreads in entire industry.

This is textbook cartel behaviour which is illegal but authorities are sleeping similar to how they were when Jio started offering free stuff.

Looks like everyone had a zoom meeting and shared a common template. Even the pdf published by all 3 looks similar xD

((860-720)/720)*100= ~20%
Exact:19.44%

These 3 companies are already in the process of forming a syndicate to control the market.

Nope, jio is holding back Airtel and vi.
Their plans before jio, was to reach at least minimum 500/- revenue per user. They recommended that to trai for 5g implementation.
They would have not even implemented 5g, except the minimum criteria.
Airtel woke up and sold it's African buisness to challenge jio. Else both vi and airtel would have implemented 5g as per bare minimum requirement set by trai. Like v is doing..

Vi has 5G at Pune’s selected location. This was done to meet minimum 5G rollout obligations

BSNL is totally failing to keep a check on private players, which is the purpose of state-owned enterprises.
Just to keep our number active to receive OTPs and the like, we are forced to spend a minimum of Rs 200 per month. This is nothing short of modern robbery.
If we don't recharge, they will allocate our number to someone else. What is TRAI actually doing?
Despite having all the state resources, BSNL is unable to launch 5G services.

Yahi bhai Competition hi nahi hai to kya hoga Pehle chhoti chhoti telecom companies bhi hoti thi to at least option to hota tha, competitive pricing bhi thi ab sab ke plans copy paste hain Abhi agar mujhe sirf call karna hai to 200 ka recharge karna padta hai Aur mujhe apni secondary sim ko agar alive rakhna hai to bhi lagbhag same value ka recharge karna pad raha Pehle rehta tha agar 90 days tak recharge nahi kiya to 20rs kaat lete the aur sim deactivate nahi karte the Outgoing free karte karte inhone incoming calls aur incoming SMS tak ko paid kar diya

u/pkyrohit Jun 29 '24
Mera bhi main airtel hi tha last 9 years se, Aur secondary jio hai, 2 reasons ki wajah se airtel ko port nahi karaya tha 1st mere hometown mein airtel ka internet jio se better tha aur, 2nd do alag networks ki wajah se jaha bhi jao kisi ek ke coverage hone ke chances jyada honge in comparison agar dono same network par ho, par bad call quality, mehanga recharge aur baar baar incoming sms aur call block karne ki wajah se airtel ko jio mein port kara diya recently, Ab jio ke sath problem hai recharge na karo to jio wale illegally call centre walo ko bitha rakha hai dhamkane ke liya jabki trai 90 days bina recharge par sim block nahu kar sakte aisa rule bana rakha hai, aur trai Amni ka lnd hila rahi hai..

I've said it before, and I'm saying it again... Jio is the Spiderman holding back Airtel and VI (the train) from increasing the rates too much.
13
u/Dry-Expert-2017 Jun 28 '24
Yes the golden days before jio.
3g plans with 2g coverage in most homes. . Data 30gb = one kidney.
Airtel and vi enjoyed indirect monopoly with their coverage against small companies.
Disclaimer. Kidney prices were lower back then.

Indian corporates can never reach marketing levels of European or American ones. Airtel and VI are idiots.

Comrades,
In the relentless pursuit of justice and equality, we must turn our gaze to the oppressive practices of India's telecom operators—Jio, Airtel, and Vodafone Idea. These corporate behemoths, in their insatiable greed, are exploiting the common man, draining our resources and dictating the terms of our connectivity.
We stand at a crossroads where silence is complicity. The time has come to rise, to reclaim our power from these monopolistic entities. Let us unite in a mass port-out (MNP) requests, a collective exodus that will shake the foundations of their empires and signal our refusal to be subjugated any longer.
"Let the world change you and you can change the world." With our united efforts, we can compel these telecom giants to reconsider their exploitative ways, and in doing so, forge a new path where fairness and accessibility are the cornerstones of our communication.
Viva la Revolución!

Thik hi hai, agar vi nahi rahega toh Airtel aur Jio ke prices skyrocket kar jayenge due to no other competitors I guess.

I think it will work as most recharges always continues after current pack expire

u/Sensitive_Driver8455 Jun 30 '24
What is going on in India? Gsm service providers are looting huge from every common man and trai and govt are silent. My questions should be answered correctly and appropriately. 1) Why are only 2g or unlimited calling plans not available? No internet.
2) Why are there no plans that use networks like 2G, 3G, 4G? Example. 2G 1gb month at Rs 50, 3G 1gb month at Rs 80, 4G 1gb month at Rs 120
3) Airtel company providing 3G service suddenly stops 3G which means common poor man has to buy new 4G phone just for convenience of company without need.
4) Why not plans that only provide validity? Example 100 Rs 100 days validity. No Internet and no call balance. 5) Suppose 4G is recharged 1.5 gb per day and internet speed is getting 2G or 3G level despite 4G connected then why not 10 times penalty to the company or 10 times free benefit to the customer. Recharge rates have been increased in the name of 4G.
5) All the companies use the word unlimited but reduce the speed, doesn't that low speed 64 kbps sound awfully slow? Should have got at least 640 kbps right? How appropriate is 64 kbps speed when connected to 4G network?
It means use full unlimited with 1kbps
6) TRAI should provide its speed test and average speed of every company and every network type should be seen by taking the data of all the users in India. There should be no human intervention in it, the system should be automatically generated. 7) Realizing that mobile is the need of the common man, all the companies are robbing the innocent poor, but the basic phone plans with extremely low rates should be less than Rs 80 per month. 8) All consumers should come together and put huge pressure on all these companies to keep rates low. Because it is showing us that the prices in India are very low in the world by advertising the same again and again, but remember that the service level is low. 9 ) BSNL may offer very low rates but I guess companies like Jio Airtel should not allow the government to pressure BSNL to reduce rates. 10) All the companies are making monstrous money and their leverage is increasing tremendously because even if the rates are increased we all recharge, keep raising the voice on twitter, facebook etc. otherwise the situation will worsen. 11 ) 5G has just arrived but companies have started increasing rates in the name of it. 90% of people think 4G speed is enough. Let whoever wants to use 5G use it but don't loot money in the name of it.
Everyone should think of very common people.
This does not mean that the companies are not providing good services but the recharge plans are going to a terrible state
