## Review summary

Users report major issues with Airtel App: reliability problems, poor live support, and eSIM/roaming failures, plus billing glitches and security concerns. Several reviews mention being kicked out or stuck in OTP-only login, while support chatbots fail to resolve issues. Repeated complaints about roaming, eSIM transfers, and deactivated services suggest a systemic service deficit; a few notes compare basic features but overall experience is marred by support gaps and account security concerns.

### Pros

- Core features to manage recharges, data usage, and bills in one place.
- Simple access to offers and rewards from the home screen.

### Cons

- App reliability and stability issues (crashes, getting kicked out, sign-in problems).
- Poor customer support experience with reliance on chatbots and no easy access to live agents.
- eSIM/roaming problems (failed transfers, roaming charges, OTP-related issues while abroad).
- Billing and payment problems (auto-pay disruptions, incorrect charges, delayed service restoration).
- Security and account control concerns (OTP-based login with no password, weak session management).
