Converting Your Virgin Islands Mobile Service To Airtel in 4 Simple Steps

Moving is a hassle due to the time and effort required to look for a new home and transport all of your belongings there. Transferring from Port Vi to Airtel is also relatively simple. Today, we rely on our electronic devices and the internet to help us get acclimated to a new place. But if you get there and find out the network is bad, it can be really frustrating.

This article by Cashify is the last tutorial you'll ever need on how to port your current mobile number, "vi," to the Indian carrier Airtel.

Keep in mind that in order to switch from Vodafone Idea to Airtel, you must have had the service for at least 90 days and have paid all outstanding bills.

The networks were chosen in this way because Airtel is regarded as the most popular option in terms of current coverage. The breadth of the network is said to include virtually every climate and landscape. Following the four steps outlined below, you can switch from Vodafone Idea to Airtel.  

Method 1: Switch Your Number Using MNP

To begin the process of switching from Vi to Airtel, first locate the appropriate MNP Service USSD code. Open up your preferred messaging app and begin composing an SMS to 1900.  

Simply enter "PORT" followed by "Your Mobile Number" and send the text.

Keep in mind that you must type "PORT" with NO SPACES between the letters.

The second step is to write down your UPC, or unique identifying number.

An SMS containing your UPC has been sent to your device. With that in hand, head on over to your local Airtel Store to move things along. Avoid erasing this message as it will be used by transfer systems.

BlueJeans, Airtel's very own video conferencing app, is about to be released, so you might want to read that before you download anything else.

Going to an Airtel Retail Outlet (Step 3)

In order for the network providers to verify your identity, they require specific paperwork. When visiting the Airtel store in Port Vila, please have the following information ready, as it will be needed in order to activate your new service:

• The photocopy of the official proof of address
• Picture Caption: Passport Size
• Copy of government-issued photo identification (driver's license, passport, PAN card, etc.) )
• Provide a copy of your most recent Vodafone bill stub (if you are a post-paid customer).

This time next year, the letter R will be added. There is a fee of 19 cents to make the switch, in addition to the cost of whichever plan you select.

If you need help with the porting procedure, just ask the helpful staff in the store for advice. After they have obtained your UPC from your phone, they will assist you in filling out a CAF form (Customer Agreement Form).  

A fresh Airtel SIM card is on the way, and it will be activated at a later time.

Fourth, use your new Airtel SIM card by activating it.

After 4–7 working days (during which time your Vodafone number will remain active), you will receive a final SMS with a verification code on your VodafoneIdea Sim Card.

Remember that number; you'll need it to access the secure area. Changing from Vodafone to Airtel entails nothing more than swapping in a new SIM card.  

When your phone is ready, dial 59059 and confirm the code to start using your Airtel Mobile Connection.
