Vodafone Essar, one of India’s leading cellular service providers, today launched a new Bonus Card priced at Rs87 for its prepaid customers in Kolkata and West Benagal telecom circle to mark the auspicious month of Ramzaan.
The new Vodafone Bonus card offers 786 free local night minutes (Vodafone 2 Vodafone) along with an additional free talk time of Rs10 and 100 free Local/National SMS.
It comes with a validity of 30 days from the day of activation and will be available at all Vodafone Stores, Mini stores and retailers across the Kolkata and WB.

@tejas
yes vodafone is too costly. if u recharge with rc 222 u get full talktime but its validity will be for 30 days i dont know why . where as idea -rc 201 gives full talktime with no validity.
tejas August 26, 2010 at 2:00 pm
vodafone ke plans kabhi really cheap nahi hote…they r v profit n revenue oriented. n i guess they will remain the same.
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 1:37 pm
The above subject is not valid for the full talktime recharge coustamers
ARJUN.C August 26, 2010 at 1:15 pm
Then Don’t Go For Vodafone
Raghu August 26, 2010 at 1:13 pm
@VANEESH
u are right Vodafone,Airtel gives around 6 rs talk time on recharge of rs 10.u see after MNP everyone will offer similar tariffs otherwise Airtel,vodafone should be prepared to loose some customers. after MNP, the biggest looser will be Vodafone .
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 12:58 pm
Vodafone’s daily 4 rs plans are realy fake.now i will proove.
Vodafone offers 10 local and std call at 4 rs daily rent.
With 10 rs recharge coupen vodafone gives 6 rs talk time and 10 local sms.
ie,
10 rs =6 rs TT.
now
Assume with recharge of 6.80 rs coupen we get 4 rs talk time .
Ie,6.80 = 4 rs TT.
So actual charge of getting 4 rs talktime is 6.80 rs.the real cost of daily 4 rs plans is 6.80 rs.in these ways vodafone cheat the coustemers
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 12:25 pm
What is the meaning of unlimited? It means no limit.but operators shows unlimited only in adds.for example in kerala idea gives unlimited sms with 44 stv but usge is limited to daily 100 sms.anoter point is it gives unlimited internet usage with 97 stv for 30 days.but daily usage is limited to 69 MB and overall usage is limited to 2GB.wat’s is this idea?
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 12:15 pm
Thanks reghu.
Raghu August 26, 2010 at 12:08 pm
@VANEESH
yes i agree with you. Airtel,vodafone,india gives around 15 rs on recharge of rs.20 where as reliance gives 16.13 rs on recharge of rs 20. Airtel,Idea,vodafone are giving some night mins by compensating the talk time. i dont know why. they want to make more and more money from customers.better all operators give same recharge values and give some night mins. they should not give night mins by compensating the regular mins.
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 12:07 pm
Mr.amit in idea kerala circle dailed *121# and then shows ‘RESULT UNKNOWN’
Madhumita Sen August 26, 2010 at 12:03 pm
I will be really happy if I prove 2b wrong.
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 11:59 am
After the launch of second pulse airtel,vodafone ,idea cut off talk time 10 to 20 pecentage in some recharge denominations.for example ,in kerala in 20 rs recharge coupen idea give 14.50 rs, on the other hand docomo gives 16.30 rs.so docomo users get more 3 minutes than idea users.this is a bad idea.
ARJUN.C August 26, 2010 at 11:37 am
@VANEESH
What would Say about Aircel, DOCOMO and uninor? Are these operators are better ones or not?
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 11:34 am
Dual sim hand sets are incresed their market share in india. These sets are avilable with cheap rate starts from 1400 rs.so many people have two numbers.vodafone.airtel,idea coustemer use these connections only for incoming.They use uninor,reliance gsm,aircel,docomo as secondary number because of their low call,sms,data charges and data speed.
Amit.g August 26, 2010 at 11:33 am
@VANEESH
for idea dial *121# for new offers, rc coupens & tariffs. for vodafone call 121 to know best offers & for Airtel call 12131 or dial *121*1# to know offers. all these nos are toll free

@Madhumita Sen
Hi madhu definitely is distant … but not an utopian dream … MNP gateway are getting estabilished and few of us have started testing too …
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 11:23 am
Onam is the kerala’s national festival.,mobile operators allowed coustemers to onam offers except airtel,idea,vodafone.these companaies offers only lucky draw,quiz etc with daily rent of 5 to 15 rs.
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 11:16 am
Idea ,airtel,vodafone ,aircel ,reliance cdma mobile users are not able to make coustemer care call at zero balance.198 toll free number is only for complaint registration.these mobile users how to know recharge offers,updates,doubts?please give answer ?
Madhumita Sen August 26, 2010 at 10:29 am
MNP is a distant dream. Its an utopia for Indians.
ARJUN.C August 26, 2010 at 10:21 am
@VANEESH
Yes you are 99% correct and Also Add Aircel in The New Gsm Players list
velu August 26, 2010 at 9:48 am
then again they will return back to quality of service vaneesh. a lot of people looked for cheap chinese crap products. ultimately they payed for more that product. Idea and videocon does not have network in Ooty. what is the use of these service even if they provide free outgoing facilities, coverage is important issue,mobile phone is for urgent purpose. you may have two numbers but some times the people will attend the calls only from the known no.the people will always recognise quality products
amar August 26, 2010 at 9:32 am
after MNP ,the key will be network+good offers.not only one
ARJUN.C August 26, 2010 at 9:29 am
@VANEESH
Yes you are 99% correct and Also Add Aircel in The New Gsm Players in list
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 8:08 am
In india many of the mobile users like airtel,idea,vodafone users, think about how to make call ,sms and data use with low tariff.they don’t think about coverage and network clarity.so after the launch of MNP they change thier operator to docomo ,uninor or etisalat.
VANEESH August 26, 2010 at 7:59 am
Nothing good in offer.in kerala uninor offers 1626 local minutes with 198 stv.so vodafone change your attitude and launch some good offers.other wise your coustemer base is reduced after the launch of MNP in india
Kaushik Roy August 25, 2010 at 11:35 pm
why night minutes are given preference over day minutes ?
In Kolkata Vodafone Bonus card 47 gives 470 mins night VF-VF free
whereas Bonus card 148 gives only 500 mins VF-VF free in day time (including night)
why there is big partiality ?
Keshav Jha August 25, 2010 at 11:18 pm
What to say about this offer? It is good offer by good network, But not good in comparison to new operators.
karann August 25, 2010 at 7:57 pm
@Fahad

Fahad August 25, 2010 at 7:20 pm
@karann

velu August 25, 2010 at 6:53 pm

karann August 25, 2010 at 6:46 pm
delhi aur ncr mein ladkiyan vodafone jyada use karti hai…
best tariff as compared with best networks
delhi mein vodafone offer recharge 105 get 1050 night mins 10pm to 8 am valid for 30 days aur yeh koi ramzan offer nahi bhut purana offer hai jo saalon se chal raha hai
Fahad August 25, 2010 at 6:45 pm
