When I called Idea Broadband, while call was on hold, recording was played mentioning that its mandatory for all prepaid numbers linked with Aadhar.
While I changed from Postpaid to Prepaid for Idea, after my Postpaid was deactivated, my Prepaid was still not getting activated for 2 days. When I visited store, guy at store done eKYC by Aadhar reader device like Jio and number immediately got activated. I asked why it was not activated for last 2 days, he said my application was not sent to their headoffice, else once form reached office it would have got activated. I had only provided Photo and Aadhar copy. Even he returned back photo and Aadhar copy as he said it was no more needed.
