Jio Effect: Vodafone Offers Up To Rs 750 Discount On International Roaming. Details Here

Vodafone India has joined hands with Visa and come up with discount offers on international roaming plans. Vodafone postpaid customers who use their Visa travel prepaid card, can now get discounts of Rs. 500 to Rs. 750 on Vodafone i-RoamFREE packs with 10 days and 28 days validity, said the telecom operator in a press release on Monday. As travelling abroad has increased in recent years, telecom operators are offering lucrative deals to tap this segment. Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio have also come up with offers on international roaming.

Vodafone's international roaming offer in detail:

Vodafone's plan at Rs 5,000: Vodafone i-RoamFREE plan for 28 days covers 65 countries and is priced at Rs. 5,000. Visa travel prepaid cardholders with a Vodafone postpaid connection can get a discount of Rs 750 on this plan and will eventually pay Rs 4,250 for the service. 

Vodafone's plan at Rs 3,500: Vodafone i-RoamFREE plan for 10 days is priced at Rs 3,500 and Visa Travel Prepaid Cardholders with a Vodafone postpaid connection can get a discount of Rs 500, effectively making the service available for Rs 3,000.
   
The plan offers unlimited data and calls in 20 countries like USA, Europe, UAE, UK, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, New Zealand and unlimited free incoming calls and free data in 45 other countries. Customers can also reach out to customer care free of cost if they need any assistance during their travel abroad.

"Whether one is backpacking across Europe, visiting family in the US, shopping in Dubai or attending conferences in Singapore, one can enjoy free calls and data and travel without worry,” says Avneesh Khosla, Associate Director, Consumer Business, Vodafone India. 

Vodafone i-RoamFREE partnership with Visa will shortly be extended to Vodafone prepaid customers too.

Last month, Reliance Jio announced three unlimited packs for international roaming subscribers. The three packs are priced at Rs. 575, Rs. 2,875 and Rs. 5,751 and will come with validity periods of one day, seven days and 30 days respectively. While all three packs will come with unlimited free voice calls, unlimited free SMSes, the mobile data offering varies. Voice calls will include local calls in the foreign country as well as calls made to India.
