Hi guys, until June 2021, I was able to activate Rs 19 (2 days service validity), Rs 48 (28 days service validity) packs on airtel using Main Balance. While choosing the pack in airtel Thanks app, the 'Pay using Talktime Balance' option used to appear.

I do know that airtel removed the service validity from Rs 48 and Rs 98 recharges and made it 'existing pack validity' only. But as of now, is there any pack in airtel that may be activated using Main Balance? I dont see that option for any pack now.

I don't think so. When I checked last week, I didn't see it in the Airtel Thanks app either.

That said, I checked now, and it looks like 48 pack is available through USSD code.

Dial *121*10#

Reply again with 1 to confirm pack

I am not 100% sure if this would work, but you can give it a try.

19 pack is also listed under 'Unlimited Packs' option of this USSD menu. However, if we select that pack, we are being asked to recharge using the Airtel Thanks app.

Send START or STOP to 1925
This is the number to start/stop internet charges from main balance...

I am not even able to send this -- since I am on the Rs 49 recharge which doesnt provide any outgoing SMS. This is so lame and unethical. At least this should be allowed!

Do we need to recharge with any specific plan after porting in to airtel OR any plan will work?

In surat mnp is Free, JIO VI AND AIRTEL... + 2 month also freee

 

[TJ_DJ]

When the operators are offerring 2 months plan free with MNP, is it the agent/franchisee offer, or a telecom company offer, i.e. who bears the cost of Rs 399 / Rs 499 plan which is given for free on MNP? Also, is it legally allowed to do so, as it goes against competition commission rules.
