Airtel launches new offer-3GB free monthly data

The tariff war between telecom operators continue. This time with Bharti Airtel announcing 3GB data for a year for users switching to its network by February 28. This offer is launched as an attempt to counter free monthly data services offered by Reliance Jio.

“Customers will get free 3GB data every month till December 31, 2017 with select Prepaid and Postpaid packs under this offer. This free data benefit will be over and above the pack/plan benefits,” the company said in a statement.

The offer will be available to any customer with a 4G mobile phone that is currently not on the Airtel network. Any customer, including existing Airtel customers, upgrading to a new 4G handset can avail this offer. The offer can be availed only within the first 30 days of purchasing or upgrading to a new 4G handset. It will be available to customers across India starting January 4 and will close on February 28, 2017.

Prepaid customers who opt for Rs 345 recharge can use this offer. In addition to free calling and 1GB data already promised, users will get 3GB of 4G data. The pack benefits will be valid for 28 days and can be availed for a maximum of 13 recharges till December 31, 2017.
