Q3. When is my monthly rental deducted from my balance?

Ans.: Your monthly rental will be deducted from your account balance at the start of the monthly cycle. A monthly cycle is of a duration of one month starting from the date on which the rate plan is activated. Ex: if you have activated a tariff plan on the 21st of a month, the monthly rental will be deducted on the 21st of every subsequent month (unless you deactivate a plan /switch to some other plan).

If you activate a particular tariff plan on the last day of the month, the next deduction of monthly rental will be done on the 1st of the next month (Ex: if the plan is activated on the 30th of September, the next monthly rental deduction will be done on the 1st of November.)

Q4. Will I get a refund of my monthly rental?

Ans.: No refunds will be made on modification/deactivation of a rate plan.

If account balance at end of monthly cycle is less than the monthly rental, the standard plan will get attached to your net telephony account. If you wish to subscribe to some other plan, then you would have to visit the modify net telephony page and follow the process mentioned above.

Q5. Can I sign up for multiple tariff plans?

Ans.: No, you can only choose only ONE among the tariff plans on offer.

Q6. What happens if I deactivate and then reactivate the Net Telephony service on my account?

Ans.: If you deactivate the Net Telephony service, your earlier Net Telephony Tariff Plan will be cancelled. When you reactivate, you can choose either the Standard Rate Plan or any other tariff plan of your choice. If you choose a Special Tariff Plan, then the rental corresponding to the new plan will be deducted immediately from your account balance.
