Verification Number for JIO Telephones - Activation Number for JIO SIM Cards
Activating Your Jio SIM: A Step-by-Step Guide
Activating a Jio SIM is a straightforward process that ensures your SIM card is ready for both data usage and voice calls. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you through the process.
Obtaining the SIM Card
First, visit an authorized Jio store or order online, providing necessary documents such as a photo ID, address proof, and a passport-sized photograph.
Verification and Form Filling
At the store or via the online/iActivate service, fill out an application form with personal details and complete document verification. If using the iActivate method, you may need to upload a live photo or video.
SIM Issuance and Insertion
After verification, you'll receive your SIM card. Insert it into your phone and restart the device to recognize the SIM.
Activation Wait Time
Activation can take anywhere from 1 to 24 hours, depending on verification and network factors. You will receive a confirmation SMS once your SIM is activated.
Tele-verification (for some cases)
In certain cases, such as for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), you may need to call the Jio Tele Verification Number, 1977, for tele-verification and provide passport/visa details if applicable.
Checking Your Jio Mobile Number
To confirm your activation status, dial 1# (for SIM 1) or 2# (for SIM 2). If that doesn't work, dial 1299 to get your number and balance details.
After activation, you can use Jio's customer care or the MyJio app to monitor your voice call usage and data consumption. However, no specific direct numbers for checking data or calls are typically required beyond the USSD codes mentioned above.
In summary, the Jio SIM activation process involves document verification (either offline or via the iActivate app online), SIM insertion, and waiting for confirmation. Tele-verification via 1977 may be required in some cases. To check your active number and balance, dial *1# or 1299 from your Jio SIM.
Activating your Jio SIM is crucial for ensuring that it functions effectively for both data usage and voice calls. Calling the Jio Tele Verification Number is necessary for using a Jio SIM, and if a SIM is not activated, it will not function. For activating only data services on a Jio SIM, call 1800-890-1977. After dialing the Jio Tele Verification Number, you will be asked to complete a few steps for SIM activation.
