Reliance Jio Prime Membership Benefits

What if as a customer, I do not want to take the Reliance Jio Prime membership? Will I still be able to use my Reliance Jio SIM card or will I have to stop being a Jio subscriber and go back to my older telecom operator/subscribe to a new telecom operator? The answer is, even if you do not want to be a Jio Prime member, you can still continue being a Jio subscriber. The only thing is, you will not be able to avail the free 1 GB daily data that the new Jio Prime pack offers. You will have to choose from one of the other Reliance Jio packs, that begin as low as Rs 19 and go up to Rs 1499 for a duration of 1 day, 7 days, 21 days or 28 days. If you do not choose any of these packs either, you will be able to make calls and send SMS for free but will not be able to use 4G data. However, this will be valid only for a limited time as TRAI does not allow users to continue beyond a specific time.
