Jio's Prime Membership Extended For Existing Members, New Users Can Avail Benefits At Rs 99

Reliance Jio prime membership benefits have been extended by one more year for the existing Jio Prime users, that too for no extra cost. All the Jio Prime users who have subscribed to the Reliance Jio Prime membership, with benefits available till March 31, 2018, stand to receive the continuation of services by one more year starting April 1, 2018. What may be the music to the ears of Reliance Jio Prime users is the fact that these services are available to the "founding members" (as Jio calls them) for no additional cost at all. However, Reliance Jio Prime membership that is on offer, can be availed by the new members too. They, however, will be obligated to pay Rs 99. The membership fee for the new users is meant for the entire year.

Currently, there are more than 175 million Reliance Jio Prime members, says a Jio statement. Until recently, there was a speculation as to possible discontinuation of Jio Prime membership after March 31, 2018 since there was no official announcement from Reliance Jio until March 29, that could have ended the suspense.
