Jio's new service : prepaid customers will get 'data-loan'

Technology/India : Prepaid users of Reliance Jio can take a data loan from the company after the daily data limit is over. For the first time in the country, any telecom company has started the facility of data-loan. The data-loans will be available in 1GB pack.

Users will get data loan pack at the cost of Rs 11 per pack i.e. Rs 11 per GB. Each user can take a total of 5 packs i.e. up to 5GB of data-loan. On the lines of 'Recharge Now and Pay Later', the customer will first be able to take a data loan according to his need and later it will have to be repaid. The essential condition for availing a data-loan is that the customer should have an active plan.

The validity of the data-loan pack will remain as long as the existing plan of the users is active. That is, if the customer takes a 5 pack data-loan, then its validity will remain as long as the customer's base plan remains active. In fact, the company believes that many customers using prepaid connections are not able to do data top-up immediately after the daily data limit is exhausted due to various reasons, due to which they are deprived of high speed data on that particular day. Keeping in mind the convenience of the customers, now Jio has started giving data-loan in 1GB pack.
