Common Problems Customers Face While Checking Balance

• USSD Code Not Working: Sometimes due to network congestion or a temporary glitch, the USSD code may show error. If this happens, trying after some time or restarting your phone might help.
• SMS Balance Reply Not Received: If you sent an SMS to check your balance and did not receive a reply via SMS, it may be possible that you have a network issue. Checking network signals or resending SMS may help.
• App Login Issues: If you are facing an issue while logging in to the Airtel Thanks app, it is likely due to a weak network connection or an expired OTP. Check your connectivity before trying again and request the OTP again after some time.

If you've recharged your Airtel number and found out that your plan wasn't activated, this situation can be quite frustrating. However, you can resolve it using the methods given below:

1. Check Payment Status

After recharging, make sure that payment was successful. To confirm this, check if you have received any SMS from the mobile network operator confirming the recharge. You can also verify this by checking your payment history on the app you used for making the payment.

2. Delay in Recharge Processing

Sometimes it takes a few minutes or even more for the recharge to be processed. So it is better to wait for 5-10 minutes after recharging.

3. Signal Problem

Check signal bars on your phone screen. If your signal is weak or fluctuating, try restarting your phone, as doing so may fix some minor glitches.

4. Contact Customer Care

It is possible that your recharge is pending for activation by the provider. Call Airtel customer care at 121 or reach out through the chat support or the help section on the Airtel Thanks app.
