Jio Happy New Year offer: All you need to know
Just like last year, Reliance Jio has rolled out a Happy New Year offer to mark the end of 2018. The offer will see Jio's prepaid users be entitled to cashbacks on their recharges. The move comes just days after Reliance Jio extended the validity of the Jio Celebrations Pack that provides 2GB additional data per day for five days. Here's more.
What you need to know about the offer
Under this year's Happy New Year offer, Jio customers with prepaid connections will be entitled to a 100% cashback on a recharge of Rs. 399. Recharges of other amounts will not be eligible for the cashback offer. The offer was rolled out on December 28, and will last through January up until January 31. However, there's a catch.
The cashback is in the form of AJIO coupons
The 100% cashback will be awarded in the form of AJIO coupons. For those unaware, AJIO is a fashion e-retail website run by Reliance Jio. However, that's not all. The coupons will only be valid on a purchase of goods worth Rs. 1,000 and above, and have to be used by March 15, 2019.
Jio's offers have grown gradually less endearing over time
To refresh your memory, Reliance Jio entered the market in 2016, and for several months offered all its services to customers for free. When it did start charging money, it incentivized subscriptions through exciting offers, including wide-ranging cashback offers. However, after the company captured the market and became a telecom giant, its offers have become gradually less endearing, the Happy New Year offer being the latest example.
