Do you have an old mobile phone, like the NOKIA 6000, that has no
browser and can do little more than make phone calls? Or are you
stuck in some remote place where there’s no Internet or no other
form of data (EGDE/GPRS/3G/4G(LTE) connectivity is available?Not a problem. You can still use your Facebook account in India
by dialing *325# or *fbk# from your mobile phone – this service
requires no data plan or Internet and it will even work on phones
of Late years.Use Facebook without the Data Plan
Facebook India has partnered with Fonetwish to bring Facebook
on every mobile phone without requiring any apps or even the
Internet.
You dial the *325# number, then enter your Facebook username
and password and you are in. You can then send number based
commands to access various features of Facebook, chat with
friends who are online, add new people to your friends list, and
more.
I used the service for some time and it was a nice experience overall. If there were a Unix-like shell interface for
Facebook, it would be much similar. Fonetwish says that this
service is currently available for Airtel, Aircel, Idea and Tata
Docomo users in India.
It may be too much work to read your Facebook news feed stories
one by one but this is a good option to quickly update your
Facebook status or for chatting with friends who are online. The
price is reasonable too – you just have pay a subscription fee of Ruppe 1.00 per day for unlimited usage.
