Airtel DataMe2U is a service offered by Airtel, which allows Airtel prepaid subscribers to share their data allowance with other Airtel prepaid subscribers.
This service enables Airtel subscribers to transfer a portion of their data balance to friends, family, or other Airtel users who may have exhausted their data balance or need additional data.
1. Check Eligibility: Before attempting to transfer data using Airtel Data Me2U, ensure that you meet the eligibility criteria. To be eligible for data transfer, you must be an active Airtel subscriber with an active data bundle. Additionally, you must have enough data balance to transfer to the recipient.

The recipient must be an Airtel subscriber with an active data bundle, and their SIM card must be inserted in a compatible device that can receive data. It’s important to confirm with the recipient that they meet these eligibility requirements before proceeding with the data transfer.
