Vodafone Introduces Commercial Usage Policy on RedX
Vodafone said that subscribers with a cumulative incoming call duration of less than 15 minutes in a week will be termed as commercial users. Additionally, the company said that subscribers with a cumulative outgoing call duration of over 300 minutes per day will also be classified as commercial users. “Cumulative duration of Outgoing calls > 300 minutes per day, which is far in excess of the average daily talk time used by individual subscribers across telecom circles in India, being almost 60 times higher than national average daily talk time consumed by subscribers,” Vodafone said in its revised RedX terms and conditions policy. Additionally, Vodafone said that its data commercial usage policy of 150GB would be applicable for subscribers enrolling to RedX plans effective May 9. Crucially, the company said that it will downgrade commercial RedX users to nearest “data retail plan” without prior notice while charging users Rs 3000 as exit fee. “Vodafone Idea will reserve its right to identify such subscribers and withdraw the current unlimited data plan of all such ‘Commercial/non-retail Data User’ and assign nearest (lower rental) limited data retail plan available in market without giving any prior notice,” the company said. “Any plan exit clause (if applicable) will be applicable to all such subscribers.”
