To avail 4G services, customers will need to have a 4G-enabled handset and a new 4G-Ready SIM card. To ensure a smooth and seamless exchange of 4G-ready SIMs, these are being made available in advance of the commercial launch of Vodafone’s 4G services in Bengaluru. A formal announcement regarding the launch, which is expected later this month, will be made in due course, the telecom major said in a release.
Customers can walk into any nearby Vodafone store and get their 4G-ready SIM with a hassle free exchange process. With the new 4G-ready SIM, they will continue to enjoy uninterrupted mobile internet experience as per their existing plans and will be automatically upgraded to 4G as soon as the services are launched commercially.
Announcing this, Amit Kapur, Business Head - Karnataka, Vodafone India said, “Vodafone is one of the leading telecommunication services provider in Karnataka and our over 26 lakh customers in Bengaluru have a lot to look forward to. We want our customers to be 4G-ready so that they can start experiencing the benefits of high speed mobile internet services as soon as they are launched commercially.
Vodafone has successfully tested its 4G services on its robust network architecture coupled with strong backup to support the expected volumes and speed requirements of its customers. In the past few months, Vodafone has invested significantly in modernizing its existing network, incorporating the latest advancements in technology making it more resilient and energy efficient.
Vodafone has already launched its high speed 4G services in Kerala, Mysuru in Karnataka and Kolkata. The intensity of its roll-out will continue with major metros like Delhi & NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru, scheduled to be launched in February 2016.
