New Delhi, November , 2023: Bharti Airtel
(“Airtel”), one of India’s leading telecommunications service provider, today,
in a customer letter emphasized the advancements in mobile technology with
embedded SIMs (e-SIMs) and encouraged Airtel users to make the switch to an
e-SIM. Bharti Airtel has streamlined the e-SIM upgrade process through the
Airtel Thanks App, simplifying the transition from a physical SIM to an e-SIM.
An e-SIM is an online extension
of one’s regular SIM card, eliminating the need to physically access SIM card
on one’s phone. In today’s digital first lifestyle and with increasing
penetration of newer models of smart wearables, smartphones, etc being e-SIM
enabled, the shift from physical SIM can provide seamless connectivity between
multiple devices.
In the customer letter, Gopal
Vittal, MD and CEO, Bharti Airtel cited a few examples where an e-SIM comes in
handy for users. Like when going for a morning jog, now Airtel e-SIM users can
just wear their smartwatch and be connected to their phone without having to
physically carry it. e-SIMs also help against
theft as it makes it more difficult for the criminals to disconnect the e-SIM
from the stolen device as compared to physical SIMs; also making a lost phone
easily traceable. e-SIMs let customers use multiple mobile phone numbers on
single SIM and device and makes shifting from a device to the other easy and
seamless.
Airtel has tried to make the
switch to an e-SIM as seamless as possible for customers. Airtel CEO
highlighted that all devices supporting the e-SIM feature are compatible with
Airtel e-SIM. Customers can easily convert a physical SIM into an e-SIM through
the Airtel Thanks App, available for download on both the Google Play Store and
Apple iOS App Stores.
