There are no additional charges for participating in the competition, but standard data costs, as per the user’s service provider, apply for data browsing and downloading.

The ‘Switch ON’ campaign has not stopped there – to take the virtual into the physical –we’ve put NFC technology behind several standees that we’ve placed in several Airtel outlets. When these standees are tapped with an NFC enabled phone, the user will automatically be taken directly to the switchon.ug microsite.
