No.. Never.. They keep on deducting from main balance but I haven’t done anything

Check message centre number. And also try by change sim to other handset. No way to port without sending message. If not solved then complaint in appellate authority. No other way. Consumer helpline does nothing as my experience with all cases, they only forward complaints in your behalf.

Try to connect with vi support in twitter… They will solve the problem in just 30 minutes.. 🙂

Even though you have main balance or sms balance You have to recharge for 49 or above for sms to work, I faced the same issue 3 days back.
To test try sending sms to 199, you will be able to send.

Already complained on Twitter twice nothing done..
Recharge done validity valid till 15th Jan secondary balance is also there

Not on unlimited plan, it is basic validity plan like 39, 49

Maybe you need separate sms pack or an Unlimited plan for SMS to work.!

Send “all” to 199, If you are getting reply as " Hello, This service is available to only valid subscribers"
Then issue is with recharge validity of your account.
It got fixed for me after recharging with 49.

Did you try from other device should be some settings with related to default country code

Did you try to sending sms from other device. Once insert Sim in any other device and try. This worked for me couple of months back.

How to recharge using ussd.. ?

@The_Dark_Knight
Send a mail to kmb and team. Your sms facility is blocked. Be*en ke l*de did the same to me years back. When you will ask them why it was blocked without permission, they will just say sorry. Oh and keep ambani in cc taki aur mirchi lage haramjado ko.

Recharge with 49 or any unlimited pack above 129. I have recharged with 39 (received 28 days validity) and 12sms pack but was unable to send sms then called customer care they replied minimum 46 service validity plan required.

Yep that was the problem and even Vodafone customer care couldn’t solve this they kept on asking questions like my location, floor number, signal strength which phone I’m using blah blah..

After 49 recharge I was able to send Sms.. Lol
