Is Reliance Jio free? Read on to know how you are going to lose some money.
Telecom companies like BSNL, Airtel and others provide voice calling services on their 2G, 3G and 4G network. However, when you switch off mobile internet, data usage is turned off.
But Reliance Jio uses a different technology. It uses VoLTE technology to transcode voice calls through the data pack. This indicates that data usage will not be off even when you 'switch off' the internet.
You can still call through the data pack. But you will have to pay data call rates.
Usually, in other networks, the service charges you for outgoing calls.
But if you have Jio network, you will be charged for incoming calls too - since consumes data as well.
So now you know how is the company making up for its offers.
