This marks the death of national roaming and the whole country will now be like a local network for our customers, who will not have to think twice before making or receiving calls or using data while traveling outside their home base. Airtel has again set the benchmark in delivering best in class value backed by a great network experience.
Airtel International Roaming!
The company is implementing an automatic adjustment for international roaming customers so that they can avoid steep billing for not using roaming charges. This adjustment will protect the bill shocks and will charge as the daily pack for the particular country (which is awesome!).
This also means that, if a customer reaches the price of a day pack for the specified country, the customer will be automatically moved to that pack. This will, of course, allow the customers to use their network abroad without fearing the bill shocks.
