Reliance Jio International Roaming: Coverage and Activation in Norway

As of my last knowledge update in August 2023, Reliance Jio primarily operates in India and does not have a direct service presence in Norway. However, Jio users can use international roaming services when traveling abroad, including in Norway, by activating the appropriate roaming plans. It's advisable to check with Reliance Jio directly or visit their website for the latest information on international roaming options and coverage in specific countries.

Recent Developments and Complaints

There have been reports of connectivity issues with Jio's international roaming services, particularly in Norway. One user experienced a sudden disruption in service as of December 4, 2022, without any prior notice. This user expressed frustration and requested that others file complaints with Jio support. Continuous communication with customer service is recommended to address any issues promptly.

Activating International Roaming in Norway

For Jio users who wish to use their services in Norway, the activation process involves several steps. First, users need to ensure they have the correct international roaming plan active. Once the necessary plan is in place, users can activate international roaming via the MyJio app or through their mobile phone settings.

Activation Steps:

Open the MyJio app and go to Profile Settings.

Go to the International Roaming section.

Activate international roaming.

Next, users should update their phone settings to enable Wi-Fi calling and data roaming during international trips.

Go to the phone's Settings.

Enable Wi-Fi if not already active.

Enable Wi-Fi Calling.

Select Network Selection Mode as Automatic.

Enable Data Roaming.

Restart the phone to ensure all changes take effect.

With these settings in place, users should be able to connect to the Jio network over Wi-Fi, or see the Jio network option available if they are in a location with a weak Wi-Fi signal.

Activation with the 1202 Plan

For those planning to visit Norway, it is advisable to recharge with the 1202 plan. This plan is specifically designed to work in Norway and other 170 countries. With a recharge of 1202, users will receive an equivalent worth of 1019 for international roaming. Additionally, the user's base plan must be active before any international roaming can be activated and will become unusable in Russia.

Standard PayGo Rates on International Roaming:

Service Rate Mobile Data Rs 0.02 per 10 KB Call back to India Rs 2 per minute Outgoing Local Call Rs 2 per minute Outgoing International Call Rs 100 per minute Incoming Call Rs 2 per minute Outgoing SMS Rs 2 per SMS

By following these steps and ensuring the correct international roaming plan is in place, Jio users can continue to use their services in Norway and other countries with reduced connectivity issues.
