<ul><li>Jio’s new tariffs have users in a tussle about having to top-up in order to make calls to other numbers. </li><li>Even though Jio has introduced new ‘all-in-one’ data plans, they do not include unlimited calling minutes — only limited IUC minutes at a discounted price. </li><li>Long term plans, exceeding ₹999, aren’t privy to unlimited calling either. </li></ul>Last month, Jio hiked its tariffs. But that’s not the only issue its users are facing. The plans, which were fairly simple earlier, are being perceived as complicated. The data recharge plans normally included unlimited local calling. But now users need to use top-up vouchers to cover the ‘<a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/reliance-jio-aks-trai-to-either-reduce-or-remove-iuc-charges/articleshow/72107616.cms">interconnect usage charge</a>’ (IUC) — or calls to other networks. And, even then, the minutes are limited. The recent changes have left users confused and frustrated unaware that even Jio’s new ‘all-in-one’ plans don’t necessarily include unlimited calling — just unlimited calling to other Jio numbers. <div type="twitter" handle="the_thok" handlename="Zeus_Of_Options" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1194334389406179329/qHWV2Gkj_normal.jpg" favoritecount="0" retweetcount="0" status="@reliancejio for what am I being charged for IUC when I don’t want to, why am I being forced to buy this IUC which… https://t.co/XHga88oaFh" createdat="1574708868000" id="1199042015729717254"></div>

 How are traditional data plans different? Traditional daily data plans that sell for ₹449 for 91 days, ₹399 for 84 days and ₹349 for 70 days don’t come bundled with any minutes whatsoever. All Jio-to-Jio calls will be free but you’ll need additional balance in order to make calls to under networks. These calls will be charged at 6paise/minute. <div type="twitter" handle="MemesChennai" handlename="Chennai Memes" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/832475932451491842/kRbBu-BR_normal.jpg" favoritecount="38" retweetcount="3" status="Life of #JIO users these days : First recharge monthly to get incoming calls and again recharge balance to make ou… https://t.co/RfS3lvxIoj" createdat="1574684739000" id="1198940810768568320"></div>

 How can I get free calling to other networks with data? In case, you don’t want to recharge with balance, Jio does give users to option to top-up their plans with <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/interconnect-usage-charge-iuc-top-up-voucher-detail-for-reliance-jio-customer/articleshow/71516405.cms">IUC vouchers</a> — ₹10 gets you 124 IUC minutes, while ₹100 can provide 1362 IUC minutes. The IUC voucher, however, has to be applied alongside the data recharge. It is not a standalone option that can be added later. Even the long-term plans for ₹999, ₹1999, ₹4999 and ₹9999 don’t have free calling to other networks and need to be supplemented with IUC vouchers. What do Jio’s new ‘all-in-one’ plans include? Jio’s ‘all-in-one’ plans don’t actually include everything but are more budget-friendly for people who need to make calls to outside networks. The cheapest plan at ₹149 includes 300 minutes of IUC calls and 1.5GB of daily data for 24 days. Once the IUC minutes run out, you will be charged for calls at 6 paise/minute. Subsequent plans of ₹222, ₹333, and ₹444 — lasting 28, 56, and 84 days respectively — all come with 2GB daily data and 1000 IUC minutes. How can I protect myself against future price hikes? Jio and other telecom companies in the market are expected to increase tariffs again after December 1. But Jio — and Airtel — are now allowing users to queue up their data recharges at the current price to activate in the future. If you’re a Jio subscriber, all you have to do is go into the MyJio app and recharge with any of the plans that you wish to activate at a later date. After you’ve made the payment, the plan will automatically show up under the ‘My Plans’ section of the app. Once your current plan expires, you’ll have to manually implement it by selecting the ‘activate’ option. <div type="twitter" handle="vinay_vania" handlename="Vinay Vania" image="http://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/1054977444485173249/WflE4bDz_normal.jpg" favoritecount="0" retweetcount="0" status="@JioCare @reliancejio Pathetic policies of Jio doesn't allow me to make calls even though I hv just done a top-up r… https://t.co/I0TLrfigzJ" createdat="1574754335000" id="1199232717117767680"></div>

Jio’s new recharge plans can be confusing — here’s how to figure them out

<ul><li>Reliance Jio is asking TRAI to either reduce or remove Interconnect Usage Charges (IUC). </li><li>TRAI had initially planned to remove IUC charges from January 1, 2020 under the Bill and Keep (BAK) regime. </li><li>Airtel and Vodafone Idea were against the move, citing huge costs involved in allowing incoming calls from the Jio network.</li></ul> Reliance Jio approached the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to either reduce or remove Interconnect Usage Charges (IUC). Currently, IUC is charged at 6 paise per minute by the operator on whose network the calls terminate. In October, Reliance Jio announced that it will start charging 6 paise per minute for calls that are made to other networks. This change was made on packs which promised complete free calling earlier. Jio-to-Jio calls however continued to remain free. At the time, Jio noted that this charge would be levied until TRAI removes IUC charges. TRAI had initially planned to remove IUC charges from January 1, 2020 under the Bill and Keep (BAK) regime. However, incumbent operators Airtel and Vodafone Idea were against the move, citing huge costs involved in allowing incoming calls from the Jio network. Last week, TRAI held an open discussion on “Review of Interconnection Usage Charges”. Jio’s representative at the discussion held that since voice calling symmetry has been achieved between Jio and the incumbent operators, there was no need to levy IUC charges anymore. The company <a href="https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/jio-urges-trai-for-removal-or-reduction-of-iuc-charges-4645571.html">held</a> that the BAK regime should be implemented as planned from January 1, 2020. The implementation of this regime would bring down IUC charges to zero. Airtel and Vodafone Idea opposed this argument and demanded that IUC charges of 6 paise per minute should be levied for the next three years at least. Reliance Jio alleged that Airtel and Vodafone Idea were diverting their incoming voice call traffic to 2G or 3G networks to inflate their voice call costs. This could hold some merit as we’ve experienced that incoming voice calls on Airtel’s network are routed via 2G, which puts the Jio 4G network on pause temporarily even on a compatible dual 4G VoLTE smartphone. Airtel however denied these allegations. Vodafone Idea, on its part, did not expressly deny this and stated that subscribers were free to port out of their network.
