THE CHANGING SPREE
Yes, it’s becoming a habit now. We’ve made a small change and we want you to be the first to know.
‘FreeCharge Balance’ is now called ‘Credits’.
Why? Well, we put ourselves in your shoes (yes, we do that too) and thought… account balance, prepaid balance, FreeCharge Balance? We can get more creative than that, can’t we? Jokes apart, it does get a little confusing. So why confuse when you can change? After all change is good, right? We’d love to know what you think. Rave and rant in the comments section!
If you’re thinking “What was FreeCharge Balance in the first place?” you must be new here or you’ve never been unlucky to have failed recharges (yay!). Balance (now known and referred to as Credits) is where we park your funds in case your payment goes through but your recharge doesn’t. You can use this anytime for future recharging. That’s not all, you can also deposit money in your Credits and speed up the recharging process. Read more about it here.
Like someone said, the only thing that is constant is change. Stay tuned for more changes at FreeCharge!

An Unsatisfied Customer
nice but I was very frustrated when 10-15 days ago I tried to recharge on my BSNL mobile for an Interenet Package and Recharge failed 4-5 times and my Rs. were stuck in FreeCharge Balance .
After Contacting to the customer Support they informed me that FreeCharge now does not include BSNL Internet Pack Recharge (then why the site shows that recharge available!!!!!) …..
so fix that
PAWE
FreeCharge has always been my first choice and now I have more reasons to it. Great going Guys m/
Vivek
Good move, One suggestion with the name change would be to award people with ‘credit’ (read it as cash back) whenever certain amount/times recharge is done
J
Good idea! We’ll work on it 🙂
Mridul
Well… This is a good move… I appreciate it.
But somewhere I feel that freecharge is capable of presenting much more bigger picture in mobile world by entering into the space of other mobile services, eg. spam free wallpapers download, or some selected ringtones download, or may be new technology and upcoming mobile trends, Tech. mobile specs and curtain raisers and other stuff too.
Well I know it is not just like switching it on… requires lots of planning and forecasting stuff but….
Just an Idea!! 🙂
J
Neat idea, Mridul. Thanks a ton for writing in. We’ll get to it soon!

Why you people are charging Rs. 10 when no physical coupons are selected.

Geeta
can we transfer credits from a friend’s a/c
J
No, Geeta. We don’t support this functionality as of now 🙁
THIRUNAVUKKARASU
THE CHANGE IS WELCOME. IT SHOULD BE OPTIONAL OF RETURNING THE MONEY BACK. THE AMOUNT DEDUCTED OR DEPOSITED TO CREDIT A/C SHOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR COUPONS, THE MAXIMUM BENEFITS BE GIVEN TO CREDIT CHARGERS
J
Thanks for the shoutout, Thirunavukkarasu.
We’ll look into your suggestion.

C Shivakumar
Bring postpaid offers as well..It will definitely bring a CHANGE, most of the people want this. if you have doubt, ask people to vote, then you come to know the result with surprise.
J
We have no doubt your suggestion is a good one. Wait and watch, we’ll bring in postpaid soon! 🙂
Lokesh
I am facing a lot of problems in recharging my mobile. I have recharged n number of times, however, it shows successful. But after some times it sends a mail of unsuccessful recharge and the amount is credited into my free credits.
Please suggest…
J
Hi Lokesh, there could be many reasons why your recharge failed, for instance, maybe your recharge denomination was incorrect. The Credits can be used to recharge anytime. Do write in to us at http://support.freecharge.in/ so we can help you out.

J
Hi Raj, you can use the promo code to book movie tickets online. Just check the terms & conditions for the detailed offer and make the most of it 🙂
HARPREET SINGH
Hey, why you guys don’t recharge the amount below 10???? I want to recharge 8 rs internet pack on my docomo number but your site does not recharge that amount so i have to recharge that from another recharge site, please start recharging from 1 to 1000 . It will be very good change.
J
Feedback noted! Do come back 🙂
ravinder
great deals at affordable prices,but ALL THE COUPONS should be in E-Coupon form so that they are not misplaced during transit through courier
J
That’s the idea, Ravinder. All coupons will be e-coupons soon.
Thanks for writing in! 🙂
N. THIRUNAVUKKARASU
AS SENT THROUGH EMAIL THE ECOUPONS NEED NOT BE CHARGED. AND TO PAY THROUGH THE CREDIT, FREECHARGE BALANCE, THE COUPONS SHOULD BE DOUBLE DENOMINATION. THUS EVERYONE WILL FILL THE WALLET(FREECHARGE CREDIT) FIRST BEFORE RECHARGING. LIMITING THE No OF COUPONS ALSO SHOULD GO.
J
Thanks for the suggestions. Happy FreeCharging! 🙂
