According to Vodafone you need to have atleast Rs. 10 balance for GPRS to work.
But what I've experienced is, you need to have that balance to GPRS to work first time after the recharge but won't need to maintain that.

Cool! So this means, the default plan would 599 plan would offer EDGE speeds, but the current 3G promotional offer will enable 3G on this plan with UL download, correct?raksrules said:
When I spoke to the CC, he said to activate 3G on my handset, I needed to send a specific SMS, ACT 3G to 144. Now how would this work on that USB stick thing?

^^ I guess in that case CC are best to answer. But i guess you can always put that SIM in some phone, send message and once 3G is activated, use it on the stick, unless all sort of SMS and Call making facilities have been barred on the SIM card which is provided by vodafone to be used in stick.

i sent the same sms from the data card sim and it worked fine for me. just you need to ensure that you are forcing the sim to use 3g network and not the 2g networkEthan_Hunt said:

you wud need some balance. i have a sim which i was using for my datacard. now the current balance is showing up as -127 bucks and doesnt allow me to connect.deep16 said:
what I dont understand is how can the balance become negative ? I never call/sms from this no. n i dont think it any provider allows you to call/msg/use gprs on zero balance
Yes, Im on the 599 2g/gprs UNLIMITED plan with 3g "activated" and getting 8 mbps on my Nokia N900 !!! 3G signals are patchy though in Pune for now.
Once the official 3G tariffs are announced I guess it will be around Rs 750 per month for 3GB quota - similar to most other providers

it is more than 2mbps download, a bit more during off peak hours. m not much of a downloader and nor do i watch youtube or things, so hardly ever do a speedtest or stuff.Ethan_Hunt said:

WTF ! i never shall understand. Evidently in my case they had deducted balance for caller tunes which I had never activated.ram_dante said:my vodafone balance once went to -807 beat that..And because of that I had to switch to postpaid..
