The Pack benefits vary as per the country you travel to and depending on whether you are using a postpaid number or a prepaid.
Vi International Roaming packs cover all pack countries with one pack. These countries are divided into 2 categories:
Refer the T&C Page for standard rates applicable.
Always On is an inbuilt feature offered with selective Postpaid International Roaming Packs to protect you from high International Roaming Charges for any usage post pack expiry. For eg: If you have taken a 10-day pack and you continue usage on International Roaming post 10 days, you will just get charged as per the Daily Roaming pack @Rs749 as your entire usage is treated as pack usage, thereby saving you from any high bill basis standard rates. If your usage is less than Rs 749 post IR pack expiry, you will be charged on actuals and not a flat amount of Rs 749. Example: Post IR pack expiry, if you send only 2 SMS in the day, then you will be charged Rs30 for the day (Rs15/SMS). The "Always On" feature comes with a validity of 3 years from the date of IR pack activation. It will remain active even after you return to India but NO charges would be incurred when in India. To avoid unnecessary charges in your future travel unless needed, it is recommended that you disable mobile data from your handset by switching it off in your data connectivity settings.
Roaming usages are billed as per data received from the International Operators on whose network you would have used your mobile while in that country. This data is received upto 60 days from the time the usage is done. In case of delay in receiving such data files from the International Operators, usages made in a particular bill period may reflect in succeeding bill period.
Your International Roaming service needs to be active when you are calling the helpline number +91 9920055666 from your Vi no. No charges apply when you call this helpline number from your Vi number when abroad. You can also dial this number from a local phone abroad, call charges apply as per the country’s call rates.
