According to Reliance Jio, the company will initially be
offering a total of six prepaid plans, dubbed as Bronze (Rs. 699 per month),
Silver (Rs. 849 per month), Gold (Rs. 1,299 per month), Diamond (Rs. 2,499 per
month), Platinum (Rs. 3,999 per month), and Titanium (Rs. 8,499 per month). The
Jio Fiber Bronze and Silver plans will offer a data speed of 100Mbps, whereas
the Gold and Diamond plans will come with 250Mbps and 500Mbps Internet speeds,
respectively. Both Platinum and Titanium plans will provide 1Gbps data
speed. Alongside these monthly plans, Jio Fiber will also provide
long-tern 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month plans.
The company says each
of the Jio Fiber plans will come with unlimited data download and upload,
however, there will be a FUP, starting with 100GB of the base Bronze plan, and
going up to 5000GB for the top-end Titanium plan. Jio will also offer free
extra high-speed data up to 250GB, depending on the plan, initially. This extra
data is separate from each plan's FUP limit. The 1Gbps plans won't get any
extra free data.
In addition to
Internet connectivity, each of the Jio Fiber plans will offer free domestic
voice calls via the company's Home Phone landline service, TV video calling,
gaming, and Norton antivirus for up to 5 devices. Specifically, the Jio Fiber
Platinum and Titanium plan users will also get access to Jio VR platform, Jio
First-Day First-Show movies service, and special sports content.
Jio Fiber Welcome Offer
Reliance
Jio has also announced a Welcome Offer for the new Jio Fiber customers who go
for JioForever annual plans. This offer will entail a free Jio Home Gateway
device (worth Rs. 5,000), Jio 4K Set-Top box (worth Rs. 6,400), two months
of extra service, and double data. Additionally, the offer includes free
three-month access to JioCinema and JioSaavn apps for Bronze subscribers.
The Silver plan subscribers will get a three-month subscription for OTT apps,
whereas Gold, Diamond, Platinum, and Titanium plan subscribers will get a free
annual subscription for OTT apps. It is unclear which OTT apps will be included
in the subscription.
Further,
the Jio Fiber subscribers for JioForever Gold annual plan will get a free Muse
2 Bluetooth speaker. Similarly, the Silver annual plan subscribers will get
Thump 2 Bluetooth speakers. Diamond, and Platinum annual plan subscribers will
get a free HD TV (different screen sizes for each plan). Gold plan subscribers
will also get a free 24-inch HD TV but only if they opt for a two-year plan and
Titanium annual plan subscribers will get a 43-inch 4K TV.
Six-month
plans will come with one month of extra service and 50 percent extra data,
whereas the 3-month plan will just provide 25 percent extra data.
How to get Jio Fiber connection, installation charges
According
to Reliance Jio, the interested consumers can register for Jio Fiber service by
going to the company website - Jio.com - or MyJio app. If Jio Fiber is
available at your location, a Jio representation will connect with you. There
will a one-time charge for installation - Rs. 2,500, out of which Rs. 1,500
will be the refundable security deposit for the Jio router. Rest Rs. 1,000 will
be non-refundable.
The validity of Jio Fiber preview offer
Ever since Reliance
Jio officially unveiled the Jio Fiber broadband (previously
known as JioGigaFiber), the service has been slowly rolling out to select
consumers as a part of a preview offer. These consumers were only being charged
a refundable security deposit of either Rs. 4,500 or Rs. 2,500, depending on
the router being issued to them. As Jio launches the Jio Fiber service commercially,
the preview offer subscribers are being notified about the future of the Jio
Fiber service for them.
In a notification on
the MyJio app, Reliance Jio has noted that the existing Jio Fiber
subscribers will be migrated to paid plans. The company also writes that it
will be reaching out to the preview subscribers individually to let them know
of the migration details. Meanwhile, the preview subscribers can continue using
their Jio Fiber broadband without interruption. As the Jio Fiber preview
subscribers are said to be in millions, the migration is likely to take some
time if Jio indeed plans to reach everyone individually.
