How to solve - Couldn't activate UPI ID - It looks like your SIM card is new or your number has just been ported over. It usually takes up to 48 hours for a number to be activated. Try again later.

Hi, I was facing the following issue if "Couldn't activate UPI ID - It looks like your SIM card is new or your number has just been ported over. It usually takes up to 48 hours for a number to be activated. Try again later."

So I want to share the solution which help me.

Step 1:
Make sure sim which linked to your bank account is placed in first sim slot. If it not then place it!!

Step 2:
Make sure your sim which linked to bank account is active (Incoming/Outgoing and Messages). Also make sure that your sim has atleast 2-3 rupees. Because Google pay do OTP verification to link bank account which cost 1-2 rupees SMS charges.

Step 3:
If you following step 1 and step 2 still facing issue then contact Google pay customer care and tell your query!
