I’ve been an Airtel user since 2021, and honestly, their “unlimited 5G” experience was pretty good from 2024 until around July 2026.

Nowadays, though, it literally feels like a scam.

They promise unlimited 5G, but I still get those shitty data-limit alert messages.

Okay, fine. I’m an engineer. I can understand that backend systems can have problems. But then they literally slow down my speed.

I’ve restarted my phone more times than I can count.

Earlier, restarting would sometimes fix it. Nowadays even that doesn't work.

And here's the weird part: this happens particularly when my plan is about to expire. I’ve also noticed it happening during the first 4 days of a new plan.

So what exactly is going on?

Are you trying to force people toward ₹499–₹599+ plans? Is this some kind of marketing strategy?

My area has proper 5G coverage. This isn't even a case of “5G isn't available here.”

And I’ve deliberately never used personal hotspot since Airtel's own reports/communications about data usage when hotspot is enabled. So don't tell me I secretly burned through my data through tethering.

And customer support?

You don't even have proper human support anymore. Your shitty bot just keeps replying with some variation of “query resolved” when the query obviously isn't resolved.

Then there’s another thing that genuinely pissed me off.

I was simply checking recharge plans on Google Pay, as I normally do.

Suddenly I get a message from Airtel:

“Use the Airtel app for recharge... with best offers.”

Like who asked for your opinion, cocksuckers? 🤬

It's my choice which platform I want to use for my recharge.

I obviously can't prove this, but my theory is that Airtel is intentionally making the “unlimited 5G” experience restrictive enough to push users toward higher-priced plans and top-ups.

Then, after paying more, suddenly the “unlimited 5G” experience works properly.

Maybe I'm wrong. If there is a technical explanation, I'd genuinely like to know.

But if Airtel cannot actually provide unlimited 5G consistently, then don't fucking call it unlimited.

At least say:

“Unlimited 5G, subject to conditions, network availability, mysterious backend problems, and whatever else we don't feel like explaining.”

Or better yet, specify exactly where and under what conditions unlimited 5G actually works.

Because “unlimited” should mean unlimited.

Not “unlimited until our backend decides otherwise.” 🤬

Like, do you actually date/marry women you always wanted, or do things like compatibility, family, and personality eventually matter more than the IIT tag?

Or is the IIT tag genuinely a huge advantage in the dating/marriage market?

Just curious. Don't get me wrong 😅

Hey everyone,

​

I'm not asking for motivation.

​

I want to know how you actually handled this phase.

​

I'm a 2026 graduate from a tier 5 college. I wanted to pursue a Master's, but I scored poorly in the entrance exam and had to switch my focus to placements.

​

Right now, I'm trying everything I possibly can:

​

Messaging employees for referrals

​

Mailing recruiters

​

Reaching out on LinkedIn

​

Asking relatives and connections

​

Building projects

​

Practicing DSA

​

Giving mock interviews

​

Yet, the results are not coming.

​

I've appeared for one interview so far. Another company mailed me saying my interview had to be rescheduled because of an emergency.

​

And honestly, some days the uncertainty gets heavy.

​

You see your friends getting internships, getting placed, moving ahead. Meanwhile, you're refreshing LinkedIn, checking emails, and wondering:

​

"Am I doing enough?" "Will this phase ever end?"

​

I know people will say:

​

Trust the process. Believe in yourself. Keep grinding.

​

I understand.

​

But I want to hear from people who have actually gone through this.

​

Did you ever feel like giving up?

​

How did you deal with rejection and silence?

​

What kept you sane during those months?

​

And what finally worked for you?

​

I'm looking for real stories, not motivational quotes.

​

Thank you.

If u r a momma, then dm

I have been using Airtel for more than 2 years, and this pattern has been the same throughout.

I recharge with an Unlimited 5G pack, but I still receive notifications like:

50% data consumed

100% data consumed

The weird part is that many times the internet stops working properly after these alerts. Earlier, simply rebooting my phone would fix it and Unlimited 5G would start working again.

Few days earlier, i went on a vacation where there was no service. After returning to an area with signal, even rebooting is not fixing the issue. I also did a ₹151 top-up with my ₹799 pack which says Unlimited 5G till the validity of the current pack, but the problem still exists.

So what exactly is happening here?

Why do unlimited users receive these alerts?

Why does rebooting the phone sometimes magically fix the data issue?

Is Airtel prioritizing users based on location or network congestion?

Or is this just poor network management?

Honestly, Airtel has been losing users because of experiences like this. I just want to know if others are facing the same issue.

Planning to watch a movie this weekend and would love some company.

We can grab a coffee or food before the show and enjoy the movie together.

Not a dating post. Just looking for a fellow movie enthusiast.

Feel free to DM if interested.

I've noticed that tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Gemini can now generate features, tests, boilerplate, and even help navigate large codebases.

For engineers working in industry today, has this changed how you value DSA and problem-solving skills?

Do you still see strong DSA skills as a major differentiator, or are skills like system design, debugging, architecture, and effective AI usage becoming more important?

Looking for perspectives from engineers who actively use AI tools in their day-to-day work.
