If we recharge a mobile number before expiry of current plan, it stacks up as a future recharge by extending the validity of current plan. If we do 2 future/advance recharges, it will extend the validity further.

For instance if current plan expires in 1 month and I do 2 recharges of 3 months, then my validity will show 1+3+3=7month. How many such recharges can we stack up? I mean can we add 5-10 such recharges, or is there a limit ?

Airtel Rules for queueing are:


1. If your current plan is Unlimited calls with Daily data ( 209, 239, 265, 299, 319, 359, 399, 479, 499, 519, 549, 666, 699, 719, 779, 839, 869, 999, 1499, 2999, 3359 etc)  then similar plans that offer unlimited calls with Daily data recharges will be queued irrespective of the price of the plans & the maximum number of such queueing will be for 730 days post which recharging will fail.


2. If your current plan is Unlimited calls with fixed data (155, 179, 199, 289, 296, 455, 489, 509, 1799 etc) then only queuing of similar plans that offer unlimited calls with fixed data will be valid.


One cannot queue a plan with unlimited calls with Daily data if their current plan is Unlimited calls with fixed data & vice versa.

Try maybe! I don't think they can take your money & not give you either the recharge or the refund

I did Airtel 149 plan and got cheated.

Recharge didn't stockup and started at same time.

For jio I think plans above 300 gets stacked.

any recent checks done as last year 1799 got queued with 1799 which had more than a month's validity but this time (recharge done on around 15-20 Feb) it didn't happen and the earlier plan was over-written with the new one's validity and lost 5-6 days of the earlier 1799 validity

Previously it used to be unlimited number of queued recharges but that has now been revised & brought down to probably 40 or 50 (not sure of the exact number). Confirm with customer care

Airtel, Idea, BSNL: upto ann aggregate of 730 days worth of plans can be officially done.
gaand phat gayi kya?
Jio: mostly upto seven years worth of plans can at most be stacked. But never verified personally, nor advised.
Jio representatives gives incorrect answers like 'You can do as many as you like'.

The idea is mainly to do recharge when there are some offers running even though the current recharge is not expired. Another reason is that unless there is a big disruption like Jio in 2015/16, recharge will only get costlier with time.
