Check Airtel port status
-
Airtel port status shows the progress of your request to transfer your mobile number to Airtel using Mobile Number Portability (MNP). With MNP, you can switch to Airtel without changing your number, making the process simple and convenient. To check your port status, you can contact Airtel customer service or use the official portal. The status will confirm if your request is complete or highlight any issues.
Airtel makes it simple to recharge your mobile or pay your postpaid bills online. While there are many online platforms for this, it is best to stick to trusted BBPS platforms. With Bajaj Pay on Bajaj Finserv, you can quickly recharge or pay your postpaid bills. Plus, every transaction is encrypted to keep your details safe.

Under TRAI’s updated rules, the MNP takes around 4 days to complete. With Airtel, your new SIM activates in about 48 hours for in-state transfers and 4 days for interstate transfers. You can keep using your current SIM until the switch. Track your Airtel MNP status easily on the Airtel Thanks app or by contacting customer care.
