There was a major change in the Indian telecom and mobile market on September 1, 2016 and on 21 July 2017. However, the biggest benefit of this change has been to customers. On both of these days, Reliance Geo announced the Geo Sim and Geo feature phones. The biggest change has come from customers. Geo was the first to bring customers the fastest 4G internet speed. People from villages to cities are now using the internet in a cheap way. Due to this, there is a growing awareness among India about digital India.
The company has said that the Gio phone is absolutely free, but the math behind it is quite easy, which will help you understand. So the price of the Geo phone is zero but, you have to pay a minimum amount to use this phone. However, it is interesting to know that this free feature phone from Geo will cost you three years.
Come, you know how much will you be able to get free cell phone from Geo?
1. About the security deposit of 1,500, the company said that the amount of 1,500 was refundable. But, it is true that, at the time of taking the phone, you have to pay Rs. 15.00.
2. Rs 153 Plan: To understand the mathematics behind the plan, we are taking a Reliance Base plan here. It is necessary to take every Geo with the phone. 153 is the minimum amount you will pay. In addition, there are also plans of Rs 309 and Rs 509. This plan also comes with a Geo Cable TV. Spending on your Geo Phone will also increase if you have an expensive plan. In simple language, customers will have to subscribe to the plan of Rs 153 when buying a phone. Thus, you have to give 1500 + 153 = 1653 at the time of calling a new feature of Geo. After this, the customer will have to spend 153 × 12 = 1,836 rupees per month with a recharge of Rs 153.
In this way you have to spend the same amount on the Geo Phone. Even then when you plan for a cheap Rs 153. If you want to take a Geo Cable TV or you choose any expensive plan, this amount will increase. Now, if you use the Geo feature phone for three years, you have to spend 153 x 36 months = 5,508.
If you, on Geo Phone, you have to spend 5,508 + 1,500 (deposit) = 7,008 rupees for three years. In fact, you spend a minimum of 7,008 rupees for using Geo Phones for three years. If after 3 years you plan to return your device then you will get a refund of 1500 rupees.
So, you can say that Geo phones are not available for free, but you will not be able to get their services at a cheaper rate.
