With the Jio Premium number service, you can choose your desired fancy number. Users can customize last six digits of the number. And the first four digits are intended to identify the telecom operator and the circle.

Jio is in preview stage right now. So it has crores of unused numbers in its pool. So the company planned to offer premium numbers Free of Cost before the commercial launch. On the Reliance Jio is live & commercial the premium numbers will be chargeable.

How does the Jio Premium number look like?

With the Reliance premium number, you can customize the number as per your wish by jumbling the last six digits from various combinations of 0 to 9. All the phone functions will be available on the premium numbers. As of now, there are no special benefits available for the premium numbers.

When does it available?

Reliance is preparing to launch Jio Premium number series soon. As per the internal sources, within a couple of days, Reliance Jio Store Mini Stores are going to offer the Reliance Jio premium number facility.

Reliance Jio is the best mobile connection in current times, no doubt about it. But in the preview offer the company throttling the maximum speed by locking the LTE network to Band 3 which provides low speed. By following this guide, you can increase your Reliance Jio speed drastically, and I attached screen shots of my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ phone also as the proof.

What is LTE Band?

LTE networks work on various frequency bands. 700 Mhz frequency considered as the Band 17, 800 Mhz is Band 20, 850 Mhz is band 5, 1800 Mhz is band 3, and 2300 Mhz is band 40, like that there is various frequency band numbers for each frequency.

At present in India, Airtel, Jio, and Vodafone are the only operators providing LTE connections. Each operator supports certain bands. For example, Airtel supports band 40 Vodafone band 3 and in the case of Reliance Jio, it supports band 3, 5 and Band 40.

Which bands are better for what?

At present, Reliance Jio is only working as Preview offer. So it works differently on different bands.

Band 40 on Reliance Jio offers better speed while the Band 3 & Band 5 offers great coverage. The implementation lasts until the commercial launch. Later all the restrictions will be removed.

Band 40 gives up to 50 Mbps download speed depending on the signal & network quality, while the Band 3 gives only +-18 Mbps speed. So changing the frequency band helps you to get more speed.

How to Change Reliance Jio LTE Frequency Band?

Here is another trick to boost Reliance Jio Speed

People who are using Reliance Jio frequently asking how to get unlimited data and voice benefits. Reliance Jio offers 90 days unlimited calls and 4G data for free in the “Jio Preview Offer”. But those who got the Reliance Jio SIM, feeling disappointed after observing the plan details in their account.

In most of the cases, my plans section in the My Jio application reflects 2 GB mobile data, 100 SMS and 100 Mins voice & video calls as the benefits. So people are becoming panicked.

Don’t worry, even though the “My Plans” section is showing 2 GB as the data limit, you SIM entitled with unlimited mobile data and calls.

I will show you a practical example now. I’ve been using Reliance Jio SIM on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ phone for a month. You could find that my 2 GB data is exhausted in the above screenshot. The remaining data field was showing 2.05 KB value from almost a week. But still, I’m downloading big files from the internet on that particular phone with Reliance Jio connection.

I run speed test app when the remaining data is 2.05 KB. Speedtest downloads a sample file to test the actual speed of the connection. The sample file itself occupies 10-100 MB in size.

But after running the speed test, still, my Reliance Jio showing the 2.05 KB remaining balance. If the data limit is over, it might not allow me to download or run a speed test.

So don’t worry about the 2 GB limit, your complementary Jio Preview offer provides you unlimited benefits irrespective of the details displaying on the screen.
