The grouse with ChoRCom is more due to the manner in which they left their patrons in the lurch by suddenly Announcing closure of CDMA (of course few Rimwebians were privy to that news as well) & not just that, they shamelessly tried clearing off their entire stock by introducing KILLER MNP mobile plans just few months before closure. Wasn't this already discussed in the boardroom several quarters ago? Hence, ChoRCom..

Number can still be cancelled even if there's a dispute, to avoid further billing. If customer care doesn't agree then it gets auto suspended (bill stoppage) & later terminated after 3-4 weeks

They've started giving connections in parts of Mumbai already. My friend has applied. Awaiting update

Just take a premium no from the cheapest available circle/Operator & port later to Jio. (we can port, right?) Reliance GSM has the cheapest lot!

Well, it may turn out to be a minor headache in explaining this to the lok adalat.. but you have a strong case if you don't pay the bill & they end up serving you a legal notice..

This plan doesn't seem to be Unlimited 3GB (Throttling after quota). They've clearly mentioned extra charges under non-discounted usage. Check the welcome mail you got post tariff change. Btw, who changed your tariff? Did they do it forcefully?

^^^^ Great news! This will help make ChoRcoms network go from 'Horrible' to just 'Bad'..

^^^ Agree with all points except the last one.
Forget compensation for equipment, ChoRCom was blatantly offering unbeatable CDMA local/std MNP plans just months before announcing closure! Today one can easily understand their intention was to offload the balance stock lying with distributors, stores & Shop.RCom
No wonder, few months before closure, even the busiest of sellers were in hyperactive mode towards clearing balance stock.. Well tipped-off internally!
So the worst affected actually were, CDMA handset importers/resellers, RGE Sim blackmarketeers & few ppl like me, using UL Mifi Internet @ 600 bucks. So Basically, forum members were the worst hit.
Now Anil Bhai cannot see others making more money of his CDMA services, than his own company, can he? He had to do this..

Who said 'forced conversion' - Read my post carefully "CDMA user never wanted to upgrade but were forced by Rcom".
And a CDMA handset user would have opted for MNP - to which CDMA Network ?
On one hand you say MNP wasn't an option cause the CDMA handset would've been rendered useless. So what better have we achieved by 'upgrading' to ChoRCom 4G? In which way are the CDMA smartphones at any advantage on ChoRCom 4G network?
One has to migrate to GSM, sooner or later.

^^^ I'm sorry, an optional upgrade doesn't become forced by any means & users could've exercised their right to migrate especially when nobody knew anything about the new ChorG-network.
But yes, CDMA users did feel that Reliance dumped them & it was a pretty messy upgrade.
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk -
^^^^ Ok, so 'Forced conversion' was the correct description & not user ignorance/stupidity..
And no, I have no faith in ChoRCom. Just playing devil's advocate here

You are right!
They did blunders - CDMA user never wanted to upgrade but were forced by Rcom so that Rcom could fulfill their share agreement with Jio.
Secondly after upgrade Rcom could have allowed 4G customers to recharge with 3G packs so that the customer could survive but they insisted us to recharge with over charged 4G packs.
In today's time, it's wrong to wholly blame RCom for a 'forced conversion' when things like MNP were in place in voice category. As far as Data cards are concerned, I guess they continued the same plan while upgrading their postpaid CDMA Data card user base to 4G, as per their promise, correct?
And by now, users also know that only postpaid plans remain 'somewhat' constant whereas prepaid is subject to change every month.
Yes of course, even the 4G data card upgrade process was non-transparent & new postpaid plans were revealed only when the actual upgrade took place. So the smart ones migrated their old CDMA data card plans to something like 5GBDay5GBNight@599 just before upgrade, to enjoy the same plan after upgrade. Whereas, the non-suspecting users with low data plans & high 4G speed, started exhausting their data within 10-15 days & are now stuck only with expensive plans to upgrade..

Have you upgraded to 4G GSM sim? And is this 397 an old/demo plan?

got a call from Reliance, Mandi house. they will be posting my cdma FWP to GSM based handset. The executive gave me a new number of my choice. The handset they r providing is cordless one costing 2500 bucks which will be free for me.currently i am on 599 PLAN with 1 gb data free + all local free. Can anyone suggest a better plan ?
Tomm once i get the handset, will post some pictures.
Don't think they should charge you more than 1800-2000 for that new landline. Ask them how will you get full 2500 cashback..

In lot of circles, Reliance doesn't have 3G. So, in hybrid mode where 4G signals are poor, what will the phone/data card latch on to? 2G of course! So think & buy Reliance dongles

No Arun, its still the same. For eg. I just checked the profiles of both the above members & the 'started by' section still lists their participated threads

When I get into someone's profile thru Tapatalk, the 'started by' section should ideally list out the threads started by them. Instead it gives a list of participated threads..
Don't know if this is a Tapatalk issue OR whether they aren't getting proper feed from our forum

Regarding rumours of CDMA continuing.. We know who might've started that. Most probably a seller, who's finding it difficult to sell off his balance CDMA stock 😂

Migrated Mumbai users, first check:
* Does your phone have 4G?
* Does handset support 800 mhz band?
* Is the nearest tower 4G ready? This you may not know.. But even for Airtel users, if 4G signals are weak, you will naturally fall back to 3G. Therefore, checkout speeds in rest of the city, to be sure first.
If indeed you're getting only 3G speed everywhere, Reliance may ask us to wait for a while OR till Jio launch? This especially doesn't make sense for circles where they don't even have 3G license eg. Gujarat

End of the day, even if this is JIO ready, you need the JIO join app for voice to work, from what I've last heard. Will that allow calls to non Jio-join app contacts???
