For AIRTEL *129# or *121star51#. BTW even the Rs ~29 500MB pack serves to increase service validity by 28 days. For Vodafone try *444star35#. You can also do the same for Vodafone if the above is not working. You can also recharge for Rs 23/24 which provide no TT.

Vodafone *121*24#

@BornGenius Try sending “PORT mobileno” to 1900

Hey Bro
What u r talking about airtel as 29/- data pack can also increase service validity. Have u tried it. ??

As I talked to voda cc two times by different executive (obiously)
First time
He told me that only smart recharge (35, 65, 95,145,245 etc.) or any unlimited pack (call + data ) will increase validity. Not any other pack above 35 even u do a data only pack of 35 or above(as u r stating)

Second time

other executive told me any pack above 35 will serve ur need.
CC @Imharsh

For ur info @BornGenius bro don’t try *444*35# it will not work try *444*24# , 24 will be deducted from balance and validity increased by 28days. – SOURCE

Yes the monthly 0.5GB data pack served to increase service validity in Airtel. I had performed a recharge. But is should not be different if activated via balance. The same also holds true for Vodafone ( and probably Idea as well ) as confirmed by a dimer including recharging via balance.

Thanks bro
Means doing a data only pack above 35 will increase the validity no matter whether activated by cash or main balance.

Now we have some options to use recharge offers as topup above 10 stopped already.
FC codes, Paytm MONTHLY

Found this discussion regarding this validity topic very useful aftergoing through a lot of similar discussions.
So, added this to deal alerts

Telecom companies now acting like idiots. My primary number which I recharge with 3 months unlimited plan is going to end on 20 december. Yesterday I’ve received message that outgoing calls will stop on 21 december. Means they will stop every number immediately once plan gets over..

In BSNL they have validity pack for 8 months, 1 year with a nominal amount. You will get incoming calls. Such a recharge pack is not available in Airtel, Idea and Vodafone?

Bro I also know about bsnl and its validity packs.
36/- gives 6month validity
136/- gives 2years validity + 2GB DATA for 28days.

But have balance in my secondary Vodafone sim that’s why I bounded to leave them and I have to be with them.

Does the 23 rupee pack in airtel extend validity or not?

Yes ofc. But since it doesn’t give any other benefits its better to recharge with Rs 29 500MB data pack which also extends service validity by 28 days. Or else the Rs 34/35 which provide 25/26 talktime at least.

I don’t need call/internet, already have Jio for that. Isn’t 23 pack better for that?

Yes. But in that case you are better off porting to BSNL/MTNL rather than giving into Airtel’s extortion.

Airtel decreased my OG validity from previous Jan 22, 2019 to present Dec 16, 2018.
