Auto Approval of Talk Time

For all prepaid subscribers of Airtel in Kerala, the telco will be approving Rs 30 talk time which will be credited to their accounts automatically. This will ensure that no user is left out of options to contact their loved ones or reach out for help.

Free 1GB data

Airtel will also be crediting the accounts of Airtel prepaid smartphone users with 1GB data so that the users can remain connected via internet during critical times. The better connectivity will also mean that the rescue operations will be able to go on smoothly. The data credited to the users will be valid for seven days.

Extension of bill payment dates

Airtel will be extending the dates for bill payment majorly for postpaid subscribers and also for broadband users so that they aren’t cut out of the network during the flood; this will again ensure that users remain well connected with their loved ones, even if they have not paid their bills or during otherwise non-functioning of services.
