Can I complain to TRAI against the Reliance Jio network?

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) does not entertain user complaints. TRAI’s role pertains to formulating policies, guidelines, rules and regulations for network service providers like Reliance Jio.

The primary responsibility of resolving a complaint lies with the service provider. If you wish, you can log on to TRAI’s consumer complaint monitoring portal to-

  • Get details about the customer care center of your service provider or the appropriate appellate authority.
  • Check the status of your complaint or appeal.

You must know that TRAI will only forward your complaint to the service provider. TRAI can only assist you in lodging the complaint, TRAI won’t help you find a solution to your issue. If any person claims otherwise, they may be trying to dupe you. Beware of such scams as TRAI does not handle consumer complaints.
