Uninor sticks to its “Sabse Sasta” promise
Since beginning
operations in 2009, Uninor has been the self-proclaimed king of “pay less, talk
more”. It’s early February 2013 now. How true have they remained in their quest
to provide you with the most economical prepaid recharge plans? Let’s indulge
in a little face-off between Uninor and other popular operators. The
battleground is U.P. East – a budding mobile market with lots of subscribers
and lots of untapped green pastures, especially for economically sound service
providers.
Top Up Plans
We start with
the lowest denomination – with the Rs. 10 recharge plan, while Uninor provides
Rs. 7.90, other options scored either similar, or in many cases Rs. 6.90. The
real deal about Uninor mobile plans, though, comes out when we start comparing
where the full talktime range starts. Beating almost everyone else, Uninor
provides full talktime starting from a recharge plan of Rs. 50 only. For some
providers, this feature does not even start at Rs. 200.
SMS Plans
Teens across the
world are calculated to send almost 4000 messages per day per sender. So, clearly,
the SMS category is very important to consumers and providers both. Most
providers in the national SMS recharge pack of Rs. 23 provide 300 national SMS
for a validity of 28 days.
STD Plans
Being a country
which runs on contacts, Uninor makes STD calling easier for you and your
pocket. With a simple recharge plan for Rs. 23, your STD rates are cut down to
30p/sec (valid for 28 days).
Clearly, when it comes to calling prepaid mobile recharge plans, which Uninor holds as its forte, Uninor sticks to its “pay less, talk more” philosophy. Additionally, even in other areas, it is at par with network providers offering the most economical mobile recharge plans.
