Telecom operators Airtel and Vodafone-Idea may soon do away with life-time free incoming plans by charging a minimum amount from subscribers to keep their number in use.
Telcos feel that the aggressive competition in the market led by Reliance Jio has not only impacted their revenue, but also have led them to revamp the current tariffs.
Customers will no longer be able to avail life-time free incoming calls. This comes as a shock for many users, but it is not to be confused with minute-by-minute incoming charges. Telecom operators will not charge incoming calls per minute. Subscribers will have to recharge with a minimum amount for a certain validity period to enjoy the free incoming calls.
Airtel has launched a couple of minimum recharge plans. On its website Airtel has listed out three such recharge plans – Rs 35, Rs 65 and Rs 95. These recharge plans come with data, tariff cutter, talk-time and 28 days of validity.
