Airtel 4g not getting sms OTP with Vowifi

[ijsa]

surprisingly for me jio vowifi is working on airplane even after restart.
using m31.

Is Airtel VoWiFi also working in Airplane mode?

Most android phones do not support VoWifi in Airplane mode.

I have tried raising this issue 2 times with customer support. After 2-3 days, it is marked as resolved on the app. And when I call customer support, upon checking they will say I should have received a test SMS and the problem is with my device.

So if I run a VPN server on my home network and connect to it when I am in a different country , it should technically work right ?

How do I connect with airtel tech support? Ivr and app are shit. No option to report this problem. I'm not able to send or receive sms on vowifi when signal is 0.

My mom who has airtel and is using different phone is also not able to receive sms on vowifi

There's no use complaining. It's a technical problem and they are aware of it. They've not migrated SMS to the IMS system, it still relies on their 2G/3G core for forwarding and delivery. Vowifi from Airtel is mainly intended for calls only at this time.

Even I am seeing delay in receiving OTPs while on Airtel. Surprisingly, those garbage messages like best deal for today, plans etc have no issues getting delivered to me..

so is it like not working for all the airtel customers? or is just us who are unlucky? whats the solution to this problem? because jio in my area is not good and I dont wanna shift to them.

OTP sms never works for me on VoWiFi. Customer support said its not supported only voice is supported.
