Airtel’s Other Offerings This Month
In comparison to other telecom operators, Airtel has remained particularly active in the month of October. The telco rolled out a prepaid recharge plan, priced at Rs. 398, that offers 1.5GB data per day and unlimited voice calls for a period of 70 days. The plan counters the prepaid offerings from Reliance Jio and Vodafone. Earlier this month, Airtel launched its #AirtelThanks programme to offer freebies to its loyal customers. For the customers subscribed to the Infinity postpaid plans, priced at INR 499 or above, 3-months Netflix subscriptions worth INR 1,500 is on Airtel. Besides this, the telecom operator is also offering access to premium content on ZEE5. The free subscription is for all the prepaid and postpaid customers of Airtel who contribute an ARPU (average revenue per user) of INR 199 or more.
In order to avail all these offers, users can head over to the #AirtelThanks section of the MyAirtel App and activate the free subscriptions. The plans are limited to the prepaid and postpaid customers for now. However, Airtel has announced it will extend these offers to its broadband customers soon. The telecom operator confirmed these offers will depend on the loyalty and the revenue a customer brings. Apart from the freebies and the combo recharge packs, Airtel has also launched several long-validity plans to attract users with high calling needs.
