It’s pretty useful to check your data balance regularly so you can better control your data consumption. Also, you can monitor your data to make sure it’s not depleting more than you are using it, in which case you’d need to lodge a complaint with the network.
Luckily, Airtel provides various channels through which you can confirm your data balance and they are listed below.
You can check your airtel data balance by visiting the Airtel website. You’ll be required to log in with your phone number and you’ll be sent a One-Time-Password (OTP). On the site, you will be able to see your personal data consumption.
You can also make use of the Airtel data balance shortcode to check your balance. To check your data balance on Airtel, dial *223#. This method is pretty simple.
In case shortcodes and websites still don’t do it for you, you can send HELP to 121 and get details relating to your Airtel mobile account. You can also send DATA USE to 121 to get your balance.
