It has been observed that many customers fail to exhaust the entire data volume available under
the internet products they purchase within the stipulated validity period. This often causes a
sense of resentment among the customers. As a customer centric company, Robi has taken an
initiative to address this area with the introduction of the internet pack with unlimited validity
period.
