[Resolved]  Airtel — Airtel message sending failure

Address: 560076

This is regarding mobile number [protected] being used in an iphone 5. I have never been able to send messages from the 1st day I got the sim. The 'My Number' in setting shows UNKNOWN; the *#5005*7672# Call shows 'Setting Interrogation Failed'; I cannot set a new SMS Message Center #. By the way, I can receive messages

I tried putting the SIM in an android to see if I can update the telephone number on the SIM from UNKNOWN - no success.

Called the 121 at least 4 times - they either are clueless ("EXECUTIVES" are a useless bunch) or promise to fix withing 2 days (someone was going to get back to me 15 days back - they never did). All that happens is a charge for the 121 call (I pay for AIrtel's POOR service and their 'executives').

Should be an easy fix for a technical person with knowledge at Airtel.
