All those who have ever tried booking gas cylinders for their homes will vouch for how difficult a task it is to accomplish in this great big city.

To avail the service, subscribers need to click on Reliance Mobile World>MoreServices>TravelNShop along with their distributor codes and consumer codes, for a one-time registration.
After this, booking a gas cylinder is just a click away. Customers are given a booking number, a date, and a time. The service also addresses issues such as leakage, non-delivery, and mechanical complaints, again - at the click of a button.
The same features are offered on SMS, wherein customers need to SMS HP to 2626 in order to register. For gas booking, customers need to SMS HP .
For redressal of complaints regarding non-delivery, customers need to SMS HP to 2626. Each request through SMS and R World is chargeable at Rs 3.
