Whenever we relocate to a new place, the first thing we do is get a new pre-paid connection and go through many hassles. Well now Vodafone is offering a new service that might help you, if you plan to relocate. The telecom company has announced the launch of a unique service for all its post-paid customers across India in which any customer who wants to re-locate from one state to another state can continue to enjoy un-interrupted services from Vodafone.

Customers relocating to different parts of the nation often face trouble securing a local mobile phone connection. It is a big hassle to search for the right tariff plan, service provider, etc. in the new location. Moreover, customers who were enjoying special privileges like higher credit limits, billing details, etc. in their older location need to establish their credentials in their new location.

Yes, we have talked about 4G LTE at length. We were the first ones to tell you that 4G is being launched in India. But that hardly means that we wouldn’t examine both sides of the coin.
First up, what is 4G LTE? Well, simply put it is the next generation of Internet. It is one that followed 3G. It promises download speeds up to 100 Mbps (although currently just 40 Mbps is on offer). When it was released in the U.S., it generated a tremendous response. But we Indians have already developed reservations before delving into 4G. And why not? It is our hard-earned money, isn’t it?
