Postpaid to Prepaid Long Query
Hey All!
I had 2 queries:
-
I had to convert my airtel prepaid pack to postpaid pack due to transfer of ownership. My postpaid plan started on 12th August 2026. I will have to wait 30 days as per Airtel Thanks before reverting to prepaid. This 30 day includes 12th of August as well? Or excluding that day?
-
After 30 days if I request airtel postpaid to prepaid via Airtel Thanks App, will the conversion happens same day within hours from time of request raised, or takes 1-2 days? And can anyone tell the process after request raised.
PS. I will travel outside India on the day when the 30 day period ends, hence every day and every hour will matter to me. I was hoping just before leaving if I could make the postpaid to prepaid conversion, otherwise I will get stranded with a postpaid sim internationally with unnecessary bill every month. (Has anyone converted airtel postpaid to prepaid while on international roaming pack).
Thanks again!
