Jio Recharge plan Hike

[2025]

Also ig 479 not available on amzn

1. What if someone pay directly 479 as recharge amount?
2. There is an option of paying using Amazon wallet. Don't know whether we can use rupay card in that case or not.
3. I am going to try similar option tomorrow if I don't get price protection plan.

1. You can but you won't get unlimited 5G.

Ok. This is for my secondary sim. No need of 5G. Looking for a value pack.

Amazon rupay Friday offer is the best 479 for 84 days. With 95 cashback effective price will be 384. Have anyone tried?

This one cannot be recharge through Amazon

1. You can't pay custom amount. You can only select from listed plans.
2. That option is for using Amazon Pay Wallet balance for payment.
3. Do let us know after your experience.

On MyJio app it doesn't allow to pay via any method if balance is not there in either Amazon Pay Money / Amazon GC.

I already tried this and you don't need to wait till Friday to check that. Initiate a txn today and selct APay wallet having zero or less balance then 479, it won't go to payment page and allow payment through any other modes and simply come back saying txn failed.

So having 5% using SBI Cashback or Millennia what I have been doing since long. I had bought many vouchers in 2021 at 5% discount. So price hike doesn't affect me till 2029.

Still, 899 for 90 days is better than 10% offer of airtel. With 100 back effective price will be 799. About 12.5% return. Annual cost also will be 3196 much lower than 3599.

You mean to say take a plan with 5G (say 84 day plan) and pay using rupay platinum card on Friday to get 100rs discount. Keep doing that on different Fridays. ? That seems to be a good idea.

One qn - Can I use rupay platinum card directly on MyJio or buy Amazon voucher and pay using that?

Recharge need to be done in Amazon app using rupay platinum dc on Friday (once in a month). Either use different card or accumulate in every month.

Recharge done till 2029??? Wondering how many vouchers can be lined up per account/number?

What about recharging through AU rewardz? That is also equivalent to 20% cashback. As per as my knowledge au allow any recharge amount. I may be wrong. I did that for dth only.

There was no max. limit on vouchers you can buy in My Jio in 2021. Later they introduced 5 Qty amx. per denomination in one order but no max. limit so in multiple order you could buy. Later they reduced it to 2 Qty max per order on one denomination. Again multiple orders were not stopped.

Also till Jan 2022 there was no limit of max. number of queued up plans as my max. reached 94 because Jio was giving me 98_14 days UL Calls + 1.5/Day with every recharge of 98 and above under offer so that free 98x31 recharges still in queue for me. Now there is max. limit of 50 queued up plan per number while you can then buy vouchers with no limits but only per order limit.

I invested around 50K on rec queueing, vouchers etc. between Dec 2019 to 2021. 399/444 vouchers with Rs.50 discount coupon bought in Dec 2019 heavy quantity for each number as I knew Jio services will stay upto mark and after 5 years I can say it did. Still having some qty of 399/444.

Then there was 20% Jiomart cashback offer in Oct to Nov 2021 and done family recharges through it at 20% discount i.e queued up till 2025. Also bought many vouchers that included 329/1299/2121/2399/2899 etc. In between recharged 395 also at 5% discount.

Before last price hike bought 1559x5 vouchers and all these will be having UL 5G with them.

These vouchers giving UL 5G also as the last I activated of 329 on my father's number on Dec 11 gave it.

I made a longer term view and analysis of telecom tariff and invested heavily for myself and family. These days my parents are happy with it when tariffs have almost 2X-3X from 349 for 84 days to 799/899. Even FD don't give such returns. So invested wisely and reaped result. 90% of people aren't even aware of queueing or vouchers and only 10% know or invest in them.

I too have plans queued up till 2029. Did the same thing in 2021 with discount coupons from Jio Mart.

how many can we queue currently in jio and is there anything to keep mind before puchase them?

in airtel if limited data pack there then only those packs can be queued, recharging unlimited data activates automatically.

Active + 49 plans. After that recharge stops. You can do 1 more each time your active plans expire. So all you can have is 1 Active + 49 Queued. Max. validity don't factor in. So you can have 50 yearly recharges also for next 50 years till you grow old. I hope this clears your doubt.

will it same if I use 6gb plan recharges and 2gb/day recharges mixed?

With Jio you can queue any denomination. But recharge activates in FIFO order i.e first-in, first-out but you can always manually activates plans of your choice on last day just before expiry of active plans on My Jio App.

Ex: Your current plan is Rs.666 70 Days active till Dec 31st, 11:05:30 AM.

Today, you do Rs.479, it queues and will activate on Dec 31st, 11:05:30 AM. But before that today you do 666/799/3599 also. So this 666 will activate after 479. But if you want 666 before 479 then on Dec 31st, go to My Jio app, activate it manually say at 11:04 AM i.e before expiry of your current plan. Now once your 666 plan expires it will be in order 479 -> 799 -> 3599.

Similarly if you activate 3599 on last day of 666 i.e 25 March 2025 then your order will be 479 -> 799.

So you can recharge with any denomination and it queues. You can buy vouchers also which you can use to wither recharge your number or family/friend/other Jio numbers whenever you want as these vouchers have no expiry.

in airtel if limited data pack there then only those packs can be queued, recharging unlimited data activates automatically.

In Vi they activate data plan immediately (only plan validity extended proportionately not data) even for limited plans like 1999 (earlier 1799). For me, that one also going to expire next month.
But I must say Vi data speed much better than jio. I am managing about 5-6 connection from different telcos. Inflation is too much.
Airtel plans are somehow better than other two. Cherry on top is 25% off with airtel -axis card.

In olden days I remember they used to give a lot of 50rs vouchers, in fact whatever recharge amount we did, they gave vouchers for the same amount making it free virtually.

Anyway that is gone now. And we either need to make best use of what is available now, use credit card offers, or some festival time offers that they come up with time to time.
