Reliance JioFiber: Trial Customers Will Migrate to New Plans by Month End

Before Reliance Jio announced the plans and pricing of its JioFiber service in the first week of September, the telecom operator was already providing its services to many homes in the country in some major cities. This was known as the preview offer from Reliance Jio, under which the subscribers were enjoying the JioFiber service for free of cost. Now according to JioFiber officials in Kerala, the subscribers of the company’s trial broadband service will be moved to the newly announced plans by the end of this month. After this, Reliance Jio will move ahead with the expansion of activities beyond the five locations of Kerala, where the subscribers were enjoying the trial services of JioFiber.

Around 5,000 Customers in Kerala to be Shifted to Commercial Plans

In the five locations of Kerala, where Reliance Jio was shipping its trial broadband services, the telco has 5,000 customers. These five locations include Trivandrum, Kochi, Calicut, Thrissur and Kannur. As reported by Ultra News, the customers of Reliance JioFiber trial plan are located in high-rises, and they will be transitioned to commercial plans in the “next ten days or so”. The official also noted that even in these five cities, the JioFiber connections have not been given out in every locality, but instead, the telco has stuck to major locations like Marine Drive, High Court Junction and Thripunithura in Kochi.

The Reliance Jio official remarked that although fibre is spread across the state, the last mile connectivity is something that is yet to fall into place. Currently, the company is slowly using various methods like overhead lines and underground cables to extend last-mile connectivity deeply into these cities.
