How to increase validity of BSNL sim card when online recharge failed

Posted on by

Easy way to increase validity of BSNL sim card ( prepaid) is as follows.  Once your voice plan expired and getting IVR message account suspended then none of on-line recharge options works.

Recharging with 3G data  not going to extend BSNL prepaid sim card validity. So once your voice account suspend or sim validity over. You need to recharge with  any new prepaid plans available at that time  and that too from BSNL reseller or agent.

Although on-line plan continue,change of plan recharge options available, it never works on expired/validity expired accounts.

I am keeping one BSNL sim past 2 years for 3G data purpose and recently i faced this problem. Still today BSNL only giving 3G speeds far better than Docomo,Aircel or Voda.
