Roaming 1 paisa Per Second
Tata DoCOMO, the GSM wing of Tata Teleservices, has announced one paisa per second biing scheme to roaming calls, regardless of what network you use or what type of phone you use.
Tata’s Roaming Plan will start this Monday and will surely create a huge competiton in the roaming segment. Now the telephony war will heat up in sectors like 3G services, Mobile Number Portablity and Roaming.
Says Tata DoCoMo president Deepak Gulati, “We are delighted to announce yet another industry-defying offer to our subscribers – a transparent and pack-free roaming tariff plan of one paisa per second for all incoming and outgoing calls, both local and long distance, to all networks and types of phones (mobile or landline).”
The pay per-second tariff war gets a new twist with Tata DoCoMo kickstarting its plan to roaming services. Though a one paisa-per second tariff is actualy 60 paise per minute and hence works out to be more costly than a 50 paise-per minute tariff, in actual use the roaming will prove to be cheap.
This is because in a 50 paise-per minute plan, one has to pay 50 paise even if a call is for 20 seconds. Similarly, if one makes a call for 70 seconds, he will have to pay for two calls. But, in the case of a pay-per second plan, one has to pay for the duration of the call.
Bharti Airtel had on Friday started a billing scheme which cut roaming charges by nearly 60 percent but now Tata Docomo makes the roaming rate even sweeter with one paise per second billing.
