Using a 4G or 4G+ network, the data diminishes very fast. Jio is the most popular sim vendor in India with a 4G network that has come in handy since the last pandemic for online classes and works from home. Jio has 1.5 GB and 2 GB per day plans already. Still, a majority of users find themselves in a pickle when the daily limit is exhausted. Data add-on plans are also in place, but they aren’t the best affordable plans for many.
Jio recently unveiled a new Emergency Data Loan Facility to help you get a slight data boost if your daily limit is exhausted. The new emergency data loan plan provides you with up to five GB data add-on as a loan. It can be availed in installments of 1 GB, thereby generating five times the loan facility. It has to be paid by the customer at a later stage, and the company hasn’t shared any concrete information about the payment process after.
To be eligible for a data loan facility, you must have an active base plan. Without a base plan, the loan facility isn’t accessible. It comes to the rescue of many students who cannot afford to spend money on data add-ons each day and might need a top-up some time. The loan facility will also come in handy if you want additional data. Still, it cannot buy add-on packs due to a problem with your bank account network. All in all, it is an excellent step by the telecom giant that will help the users in their time of need.
