Vodafone Idea (Vi), one of India’s leading telecom operators, has recently announced the update of its International Roaming (IR) packages for postpaid users in the country. The company claims that the plans have been revised to cater to the increasing demand for international travel during the summer holiday season. With more data, unlimited incoming calls, and travel security benefits, the updated plans are sure to be a hit among travelers.
The three IR packages, namely, the Traveler, Tourist, and Unlimited, have been revamped to provide a seamless and hassle-free experience for postpaid users while traveling abroad. The Traveler pack, which is priced at INR 699, now offers 100 minutes of outgoing calls to India and the host country, 100 SMS, and 500 MB of data per day. The Tourist pack, priced at INR 1,499, includes 30 minutes of outgoing calls, 30 SMS, and 1 GB of data per day. The Unlimited pack, priced at INR 2,999, offers unlimited outgoing calls, unlimited SMS, and 2 GB of data per day. All three plans now come with unlimited incoming calls and travel security benefits such as free insurance cover worth INR 5,00,000.
With the onset of the summer holiday season, when outbound travel from India typically sees a sharp rise, Vi’s updated IR plans come as a relief for postpaid users. The increase in data benefits, along with unlimited incoming calls, will ensure that customers stay connected with their loved ones back home without worrying about expensive international calling charges. Moreover, the addition of travel security benefits provides a sense of security for travelers, making their journey stress-free.
Apart from the increased data benefits and travel security benefits, Vi has also introduced a new feature called ‘Discover’ in its MyVi app. This feature helps users plan their travels by providing information about the host country, including currency exchange rates, popular tourist destinations, and important local contacts. The app also offers discounts on flight tickets, hotel bookings, and other travel-related services, making it a one-stop solution for all your travel needs.
Speaking about the updated IR plans, Avneesh Khosla, Director-Marketing, Vodafone Idea, said, “At Vi, our aim is to provide our customers with a seamless and convenient experience, be it at home or while traveling abroad. With the summer holiday season around the corner, we have revised our International Roaming plans to cater to the growing demand for international travel. Our updated plans offer more data, unlimited incoming calls, and travel security benefits, making them the perfect companion for our postpaid users during their travels.”
Vi’s updated IR plans are available for postpaid users in India and can be activated through the MyVi app or by contacting customer care. The plans are valid for popular international destinations such as the USA, UK, UAE, Singapore, and Thailand, among others. The company has also assured that it will continue to provide affordable and convenient solutions for international travelers, keeping their evolving needs in mind.
In a world where staying connected is of utmost importance, Vi’s updated IR plans are a welcome move for postpaid users in India.
