Reliance Jio's Happy New Year Offer: How to Use High-Speed Data Beyond 1GB Daily Limit

If you've been using Reliance Jio then you've probably become used to the free Welcome Offer, which let users have high speed Internet access for up to 4GB of data a day. Before the public rollout even this limit was not there, but from January 1, Reliance Jio was supposed to get its commercial rollout when people would start paying for the service. Instead, the company launched the Jio Happy New Year Offer, which came into effect on Sunday. As part of this promotional offer, users will be able to make unlimited phone calls and enjoy 1GB of free high-speed data per day till March 31. To browse again at high speed, you can buy a booster pack from Reliance Jio, which should help people to get used to the idea of paying for Jio. The company has priced this at Rs. 301 for a 6GB pack, or Rs. 51 for a 1GB pack, in line with what Jio Chairman Mukesh Ambani had announced at the launch of the network. Buying a recharge is pretty simple. Here is how you can use 4G speeds on Reliance after crossing the 1GB daily limit:
  1. On your phone, open the MyJio app.
  2. Log in, or register if you haven't already. Your Jio phone number is your username.
  3. Now, you'll see a list of Jio apps. Tap Open next to MyJio.
  4. Tap Usage and tap on Data - do this to confirm that you've crossed the 1GB limit. This is because Jio speeds aren't always stable, and sometimes a slow connection could just be a slow connection.
  5. If you've crossed the limit, tap the Back icon, and go back to the main screen.
  6. Tap on Recharge
  7. Tap on Booster
  8. Choose the plan you want, and tap on the price on the right side.
  9. This takes you to the payment screen, where you can pay via JioMoney, credit or debit cards, or via netbanking. Complete the payment as normal.



That's it - you're done. You can go back to browsing and using the Internet as always, at the regular 4G speeds. Buying a 6GB pack will save you Rs. 4, but given that the data limit resets daily, while the 6GB pack has a 28 day validity, it might not be the most value for money option at this point. Later, once you're paying for a regular data plan, it might make sense to purchase the bigger pack, but while the Jio Happy New Year Offer is running, it makes more sense to buy data in 1GB blocks - unless of course, you're planning a big download and need to use up more than 1GB in one go.

5 real-world events which ‘prove’ that time travel actually exists

In Back to the Future, you need an expensive car, and a conveniently placed lightning bolt – but what if time travel was easier than that? What if time travellers were ALL AROUND US? The ‘time travelling hipster’ (above) is one of the creepier pieces of evidence touted as proof that time travel exists – but we’ve picked out some of the best below, including several people from black-and-white films who appear to be using mobile phones. Nigel Watson, paranormal expert and author of the UFO Investigations Manual, ‘Would time travelers from the future really be using mobile phones? Wouldn’t they use something more sophisticated and less visible? Then again Dr Who still uses a sonic screwdriver and that is so 20th Century…’ Entry by  Cervus Entry by  Chan Teik Onn Entry by  GordonHaid Entry by  gicusudoru

Anonymous just declared war against Donald Trump !@

One of the primary Twitter accounts for the internet’s most notorious hacktivist collective tweeted multiple times at the President-elect on Sunday night, shortly after Trump  attacked civil rights icon John Lewis  and blasted Saturday Night Live as “ the worst of NBC ” (oddly enough the same network that carries the reality TV show for which Trump is  listed as an executive producer ) . In a series of responses to one of Trump’s tweets accusing outgoing CIA director John Brennan of leaking the infamous “Golden Showers” dossier,  @YourAnonCentral  told the President-elect that his dealings with “Russian mobsters, child traffickers, and money launderers” would soon come to light. Anonymous also ominously warned Trump that information on the internet is there forever, and that his rich father can’t protect him anymore. Anonymous isn’t just blowing hot air — Trump actually does have ties to unsavory characters tied to the Russia mob, according to Pulitze...

10 MOST HAUNTED PLACES IN THE WORLD

It seems that one of the most enduring aspects of cultural similarity found throughout the world involves the supernatural.  No matter where you go across the globe, you’re going to hear various legends and ghost stories…except some of these carry significantly more weight than your average campfire story.  People seem to be somewhat obsessed with what goes on after death, especially in regards to whether or not the spirits of the departed stick around.  It would be easy to say that such attention can be blamed on vivid, Hollywood inspired imaginations, but documented reports of supernatural disturbances go back several centuries in many places, underlining the fact that no matter the time period or society involved, the paranormal remains on people’s minds. Sure, many places in the world that are reputedly haunted seem more far-fetched than realistic, but there are those that have a tendency to make even the most hardened skeptic stop and reconsider.  Listed he...
