Important news for Airtel customers! The company removed its ₹549 postpaid plan
If you are thinking of taking Airtel’s new postpaid plan, then this news is useful for you. The company has removed its ₹ 549 individual postpaid plan without any official announcement. Now this plan is neither visible on Airtel’s website nor in the Airtel Thanks app. In such a situation, for new customers the option of direct ₹ 449 Individual Plan or ₹ 699 Family Plan is left.
Airtel has not given the reason for this change, but it is believed that the company now wants to bring more customers towards the family plan. If you were earlier planning to take the ₹549 plan, now you will have to choose another plan.
