Conclusion:

Call and SMS rates are quite competitive.  Not the best in some cases (base tariff for off-net, on-net), but off-net and off-net FNF rates are amazing for Circle Club members.

Circle bundles are impressive too. Their daily voice bundle is probably the industry best. It offers sufficient voice minutes, SMS and MMS to meet all your communicate doze for a day; that too in just Rs. 5 per day.

Brand’s look and feel is exiting and moving. However, its strange – probably coincidental – that Circle is also using Yellow color, which was recently used by Ufone for Uth Pack, its Youth brand.
