Airtel Mobile Connection — Request to stop sending promotional offers

Dear Sir,

I regularly receive promotional call & SMS. I had requested for DND (do not disturb) facility, but the system activates only after 45 days.

I had no other complaint but since I am an frequent traveller receiving promotional SMS and calls on roaming obviously pinches me.

To stop SMS type NO in message box and send it to 170
For promotional Calls type START DND and send it to 1909
This works
I developed a reflex in recent months when I use my Airtel postpaid connection, if any sms comes I'm sure it is someone who's asking me to buy a flat in cheap rate near NCR, or astology or personal loan etc. etc. If I see a call is coming from a unknown number and on the other side a female voice I become sure of some loan/credit card request and before she could finish I thank and disconnect her.

I tried Airtel's so called 45 day DND/govt. rule blah.. blah... but nothing worked at all but my reflexes are doing great :-)
