hareram 0 Report post Posted January 25, 2004 what is the status after the march 31 is this paid basis i see most of the telecom provider does the same marketing First they give all free once the user basis increases, they start cutting the Services we seen with HUTCH, may be reliance now hare Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chirag 5 Report post Posted January 25, 2004 yeps, R-World is chargeable after March 2004. and i guess, the charges are 40p/min. Wht contents are chargeable are not known to me... That should come up soon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted January 25, 2004 Most probably, the videos might be charges for the time they take to download/buffer. Yeah, must be 40 paise/minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashokjp 15 Report post Posted February 16, 2004 Wht contents are chargeable are not known to me... Mostly r-surf and songs will be charged.. bcz text based services of r-world will be available through sms. Anyways sms services of r-world content wont be that intresting as direct ones.. Still thinking of paying.. even sms will do for most topics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunil_jok 2 Report post Posted February 17, 2004 i think going into r-world itself would be chargable. think of it like an internet connection i see most of the telecom provider does the same marketingFirst they give all free once the user basis increases, they start cutting the Services i dont think they were cheating, us. coz they had told it would be chargable. they just keep the free period extented Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tezo 2 Report post Posted February 17, 2004 I don't mind paying for R-World. Hope they will come up with some good ring tones too. May be some hindi movies etc. I am sure rim will be charging less compare to other GSM operator. They charge Rs.7 for Ring tone & Rs.5 for logo Let's see what rim decides on this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mahidhar 3 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 i dont think we'll b charged for getting into r world .. i think we'll be charged for data transfer once we're in ... something like using r conect where ur charged for the data transfer and not for the time of ur browsing session ... 8 more days and everything will become clear !

mmsawant 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 Guys as said by Reliance Webworld employees, there will be a monthly charge for accessing R-World. Approz Rs. 200 / month. Also some content which they will term as PREMIUM will be charged excessively. ( eg. Ringtones, Wallpapers, Yahoo Messengers, R-Surf etc) And for the queries of some of our rimweb folks i also asked about accidential access to R-World while the phone is in our pockets or if anyone who's not knowing about the reliance handset gets into R-World, will it be chargable ? They said NO. If you subscribe to R-World only then u can access it, otherwise you will get a message saying disconnected on your RIM screen. Hope this material will help.

Chirag 5 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 Oh this is cool! I dont want R-World anyways! Wish when i bought the handset there were more handsets without R-World compatibilities... then i would have got them cheaper... Anyways, i think, the services at R-World shall improve coz there would be fewer ppl hanging around there and those who get in will get faster access too! PREMIUM SERVICE = PREMIUM PRICE >>> Doesn't suit my pocket though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashokjp 15 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 ( eg. Ringtones, Wallpapers, Yahoo Messengers, R-Surf etc) Are you talking about Yahoo Messenger through sms? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 I think he meant the one in R-Surf itself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iiii_pretender_iiii 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 Guys i dont think going into R-world itself will be paid... Cause like bored said, it may happen accidentally... What i think is that only some services like online banking an stuff will be paid for each transaction made... I dont think videos and songs will be paid cause they are promotional things and they cant charge the customer for that.... Think of it like advertising... No one wants to pay for advertising.... They will most probably be sponsered.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mahidhar 3 Report post Posted March 22, 2004 dont think many ppl would be interested in using R world ... think of the stuff it offers ... i mean u could listen to all those songs and videos , that too when u've got nothin else to do ! and very few of us use the banking facility (im assuming!), its got the worst ringtones ! dont c r world really taking off in future too ...

All at the press of a button. The content is free till June 30,2004, for RIM Prepaid customers. Yup, its free till June 30th. Maybe you mistook it for R-Connect as Chirag has pointed out.
