Was the concerned connection under temporary suspension / not recharged during period of last 30 or 40 days? If yes then system would have counted the days when the said channel was active , once 30 days would have been completed then it would have been dropped from ur account
Nope top-up i added on my regular activate connection it's my primary connection i recharge on 29th day of every month

secondary was off/ decativate status over 2 years

Were you offline when he kept complaining about his issues for the last month?

Buddy in this period did u upgrade to a DPO bouquet / chose an Add On Pack which contained this channel? If so then a-la-carte channel would have been automatically deactivated before 30 day lock in period in march then maybe on 19th March u again downgraded ur DPO Bouquet / dropped Add On Pack and again activated this channel via a-la-carte mode hence new removal date would have been 18th April 2023.

If this is also not the case then there might be some technical glitch in ur DTH Account, raise a complaint with Airtel for the same. I have never faced such issue :)

minimum recharge amount is still 50rs.
This has started to backfire them. My friend wanted to activate SSS1 HD today so that the channel will be active till end of IPL. He had some 15rs in his DTH account. It asked him to recharge with 50rs. He said, okay I am fine with JioCinema. With greed they are losing revenue. They should atleast remove minimum recharge for active customers at the earliest. With the extra 30rs, I don't think they will be able to retain customers when they decide to suspend the connection.

Haha, to change viewing pattern of adding and dropping users. They are causing inconvenience to long term users. Pity on them for thinking their telecom strategy where there is barely any competition will work for their DTH. 🥱

Or maybe they are trying to discourage low ARPU users from using airtel dth.
 
So for pushing a la karte 30 days lock in now no broadcaster bouquets available on app
Only region wise bouquets available
