Airtel GPRS Rs 98 Plan Not working for me.. Please Help!!!

[Abhshk]

Hello

I bought a New Airtel Sim yesterday Noon..
Well, I asked the Retailer to do an E Recharge for 2 GB Plan & He Did an Rs 98/- Recharge..

I have opera mini 4 pre-installed with my Nokia 5130 XpressMusic! I tried connecting,but it didn't worked!!

Well, I went back to the retailer and He Dialed *567*11# from my phone & I got a message from airtel saying - "your request for activation volume based charges is being processed & you'll be notified soon.."

I also called the airtel customer care & asked if my 98 plan is activated.. he said it is activated!
WEll then I asked him for airtel mobile office settings & saved the new one too..

But whatever I'm doing I can't connect to internet!! I use opera as I said & the little EDGE box ain't even coming for a mili second & shows error!

Summary :
1. New Sim! - Fully activated, can call and send messages!
2. Rs 98 E-Recharge!
3. *567*11# -
Got the following reply : "your request for activation volume based charges is being processed & you'll be notified soon.."
4. Called CC to get settings..saved the new settings too!

Is it because I recharged first then activated gprs.. I dont think so!
Tried Everything.. It ain't working! :madness:


Please can someone tell me what to do...Shud i wait for that processed thing.. how long it would take to activate... Its been like more then 24 hours I activated the plan!
Share ur experiences, it could help ! :huh::huh:

Dial *123*10# to check the balance data.If it shows some value (like 2000 MB), then it is recharged.Recheck the GPRS settings and request for the settings again.Try connecting with the default browser in ur mobile.

Why did you do *567*11# after the recharge?
rs 98 recharge was enough or other way to recharge is by deducting the amount from the prepaid balance. for this step just press *567# and follow the steps from next time.
*567*11# might have activated the GPRS plan again and money may be deducted automatically after x days depending upon the plan.
Confirm with cc.

Just send MO to 52567, settings will come, save them & use internet. This works for me, the default settings in Nokia dont work for me. or manually configure the settings.

What does *123*10# gives?

When you get the settings and save them. Also change the default access point to whatever the new settings name is. Then finally reboot. This should do the trick.

I have been using the same plane on my phone for almost a month now. Works great!
