Have you observed Airtel Rc 35 monthly Recharge ?

I have done Recharge today so Talktime of Rs. 26 haven’t got added to main account balance !
But showing as Rs. 26 valid till 28-07-2019
I have already Rs. 363 in main account showing as with same validity but Rs. 26 have to be used before 28-07-2019 !
In previous month it was added instantly to main account balance , so from now you have to use that balance otherwise it will get expired automatically !
Ap & TS circle for me !
Try doing Rc 65 instead !
Issue only with Airtel !

Check this screenshot and verify yourself and use it before expiry !


So Here Balance of Rs. 26.66 will expire on 28-07-2019 ( Done Rc 35 Today on 01-07-2019

Second Balance accumulated from Previous month of Rs. 363.47 , so it will not Expire !

So this whole process started from Today only , so better not to accumulate main account balance & if no balance in main account just port out to other network like Bsnl or Jio will get benefited smile

Glad to know that it worked for you till now (addition in main balance). Done and dusted with chortel for this only reason 6 months back. Primary, secondary, tertiary.. don’t know how many account types they make to loot their own customers!

No not time to escape from them.
We should not accept these tactics and raise the voice.
as i think that they r trying to do this on trial basis in AP and TS circle to know our reaction. We should oppose them as it is initial stage of their so called looting tricks and force them to take this action back.
otherwise PAN india will face the same and also other operators will do the same.

Don’t understand why are people still stuck with such a shrewd operator. Jio has been there in market for almost 3 years now and their connectivity is at par with airtel now and even better at many places.

Using both Airtel & Jio (558 & 448) plans . Here , Jio speed on non CA phone is 40mbps always but in 7-11pm speed goes down to 2 Mbps . In Airtel speed in day time is 65-70 Mbps . In 7-11 pm I got 10mbps+ speed .

seems like they dnt care anymore about their subscriber base…only thing they are interested now in money! airtel is no more the number one telecom in india in terms of subscriber…they are already bleeding heavily in terms of profit (though i’ve doubt) and now with these kind of strategy i wonder what turn around they are expecting!!! they are loosing both loyal subscribers and with them money too!! confused

Wait, what? You guys get some talktime balance even for validity extension plan(I mean that compulsory monthly charge we have to pay inorder to use the sim)?
It does not work that way with BSNL,we don’t get any talktime balance with validity extension.

Yes with Bsnl – only Validity extension , no talk time credits but they provide unlimited calls for 15-24 days with 1 GB free Data !

@syed786 Bro is there any way to utilize this spl balance except calling ?

Community Angel Community Angel
Link Copied

there is no use except calling , as it won’t work even for talk time transfer , pack activation , so it’s waste if you are on unlimited pack using multiple numbers , so better do small internet pack recharge and utilize , or another option if you want to recharge from main balance then do Rc 100 full talk time ( works for future activation from main balance ) smile

As per TRAI rules : your number won’t get deactivated if you have more main account balance smile

Please take care what you wish for. Airtel sinking will sink 30k employees too. Then please don’t come and say that Govt is killing jobs and how will people survive. Everybody needs money to survive. Airtel isn’t doing anything wrong. I don’t understand people here. They want the sim but don’t want to spend Rs.23/month?

Similar thing with BSNL also. Some people are blaming policy paralysis for BSNL sinking and if you ask these people which operator you use you will not get name of BSNL. One people want it to stay and then dont want their sim or give them money to survive. Everyone is not BSNL here who will keep getting losses and keep providing salaries on taxpayers money,

Had my main number with airtel for a long time, but ported it to Vodafone due to Airtel’s ‘chorpana and chindipana’ long time back. After jio revolution also, for airtel this line fits perfect that “chor chori se Jaye herapheri se na jaye.”

If one is keeping Airtel as a secondary sim he has to pay approx 1 re daily.. Airtel stops OTPs receiving after validity expiry

Messages (in) are supposed to be free till the sim in service. But again, they have their history of doing stuff their own ways, as if they own TRAI. confused
