Vodafone Idea (Vi) on Tuesday launched the \u201cVi Guarantee Program\u201d, under which it will credit an extra validity of 24 days over 12 months, ensuring these users can seamlessly access voice and data services. <\/p>\n
Vi said the benefit of 24 days extra validity will be credited over a 12-month period, wherein two days extra validity will be credited with every unlimited voice recharge pack of \u20b9199 and above.<\/p>\n
Today\u2019s announcement comes close on the heels of Vi saying it will expand its commercial fifth-generation (5G) services to 23 more cities nationwide. <\/p>\n
The Vi Guarantee programme aims to address a long-standing challenge faced by voice-only or low data usage prepaid customers, which is the need to recharge again within the same month. With traditional 28-day packs, customers often recharge twice in a single calendar month or sometimes continue with interrupted service. <\/p>\n
\u2018With the introduction of Vi Guarantee, customers will now get 30 days of service validity instead of the usual 28 days, enabling one recharge per month,\u2019 India\u2019s third-largest telco said. <\/p>\n
Even on recharges with longer than 28-day validity, the additional two days will help bridge gaps in the recharge cycle, ensuring convenience and uninterrupted service.<\/p>\n
Analysts estimate that India has about 250-300 million telecom subscribers using basic or keypad phones that support 2G only. <\/p>\n
The Vi Guarantee Program is valid on Vi prepaid packs priced at \u20b9199 and \u20b9209, which offer unlimited calls, 2GB data, and 300 SMSes. <\/p>\n
Pack benefits for Assam, North East, Odisha, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu & Kashmir & Rajasthan circles include unlimited calls, 3GB data, and 300 SMSes. The \u20b9209 pack additionally offers caller tunes benefit. <\/p>\n
The telco had originally launched the Vi Guarantee programme for 4G and 5G customers last year, offering a total of 130GB extra data over one year, with 10GB being credited automatically every 28 days for 13 consecutive cycles. To avail of this, customers will need to be on daily data unlimited plans of \u20b9299 and above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
