Vi brings relief to 2G users with 24 extra validity days, eases monthly recharge burden

Telecom operator Vi has launched the Vi Guarantee Programme aimed at 2G handset users, offering 24 extra validity days per year on unlimited voice prepaid recharges of ₹199 and above. With 2 bonus days added to each recharge cycle, customers can now enjoy a full 30-day service instead of the usual 28 days—helping many avoid the inconvenience of double monthly recharges.

This initiative is particularly significant for voice-only and low-data users, many of whom rely on basic phones and tight budgets. Popular packs like ₹199 (Unlimited Calls, 2GB/3GB, 300 SMS) and ₹209 (with Caller Tunes) now provide extended usability, ensuring users don’t lose connectivity due to lapses in recharge timing.

Where a sizable section of the population still uses 2G handsets, local shopkeepers say the scheme is a “boon for daily wage workers and senior citizens” who often struggle to keep track of recharge cycles. It’s expected to improve user satisfaction and build stronger loyalty in Assam’s urban and semi-rural circles.

To avail the Vi Guarantee, users can dial *999# or call 1212. Meanwhile, Vi’s 4G/5G Guarantee Programme offering 130GB extra data on ₹299+ plans continues.
