The above offers are quite attractive for overseas travelers compared to buying 3 SIM Cards for a 2 week trip in USA this summer would be $120-150. Also there is an added hassle of remaining disconnected for a period of a few hours before procuring a SIM and one may anyway end up spending an additional Rs.500-1000 on international roaming per SIM to make/receive just a few calls during this period. Also activating international roaming plans for such a trip for a family would cost Rs.12000-15000. Also, cab booking app services are harder to use on international roaming since the driver may not call the Indian number and lastly any local business contacts also may not like to call an international number to get connected with the user.

Our special prepaid family plans this summer holidays is another milestone in our relentless pursuit of keeping our customers stay connected across the globe with convenient and cost effective solutions. “
