Airtel — no activation of postpaid sim

Address:	500094
Website:	airtel

I lost my mob number [protected] so had got the sim blocked immediately. Subsequently, on 06 nov 17 i got a new sim of same number from the airtel gallery at as rao nahar, secunderabad. The airtel representative there told me that activation will take place within 24 hrs.

It's been more than 24 hrs since the new sim was issued to me by airtel however it is yet to show any signal. My repeated calls to the airtel gallery at as rao nahar have gone unanswered.

Incidentally, this isn't my first bad experience with airtel. When i had bought this sim new in may 2017, it took airtel more than 7 days to activate it. Cursing my stars to go for this service provider, others are as bad i guess!
