Jio Fiber tr
In a bid to get more customers on board, Jio Fiber will provide a ‘no-condition 30-day free trial to all new consumers. This trial period will offer users up to 150Mbps speed, a 4K set-top box with subscription to 10 OTT apps at no extra cost, and free voice calling benefits. Jio says that this 30-day free trial is applicable for all new customers, and if the user doesn't like the service, the telecoms giant will disconnect the service back without any questions asked. Jio will be taking a deposit of Rs. 2,500 from customers who look to opt for the 4K set-top-box during the trial period and Rs. 1,500 from those customers who do not opt for it. Only customers who pay Rs. 2,500 security deposit will get free access to the 10 OTT apps, and not the Rs. 1,500 security deposit customers. The 10 OTT apps include Disney+ Hotstar, JioCinema, Zee5, Sony Liv, Voot, Alt Balaji, Sun NXT, Shemaroo, Lionsgate Play, and Hoichoi.
Jio notes that all new Jio Fiber customers activating from September 1 will get the 30-day free trial period. Furthermore, any Jio Fiber customers onboarded between August 15 and August 31 will also get the 30-day free trial benefit as a voucher in MyJio.
Jio Fiber new plans
Coming to the new plans, Jio Fiber will now be offering a total of six monthly plans that start at Rs. 399 and go up to Rs. 3,499. The new Jio Fiber plans are priced at Rs. 399, Rs. 699, Rs. 999, Rs. 1,499, Rs. 2,499, and Rs. 3,499. The Rs. 2,499 plan was offered earlier as well and hasn't seem to have seen any change.
The fresh Jio Fiber Bronze Rs. 399 monthly plan offers “truly unlimited data” at 30Mbps speed and unlimited voice call benefits to subscribers. As mentioned, the new plans aren't really unlimited and there is going to a fair usage policy. We have reached out to Jio to get a confirmation on this FUP for all plans and will update this report when we hear back.
Similarly, the Rs. 699 Jio Fiber Silver monthly plan offers Internet at 100Mbps speeds and unlimited voice benefits. Both Rs. 399 and Rs. 699 plans do not offer any OTT app subscription benefits.
