Conclusion
In the end, I must say that there are no direct methods that can give free VI data. All the methods I have told you are indirect ways to get some extra data. Since I run my own show where I sell gift cards and game items and recently I have also started giving digital services like registering SIM, recharging, activating numbers, etc.
So somehow I know these methods. If I find more such methods, I will update them on this page. If you know any method, you can also share it. Please let me know which of my given methods worked for you.
