THANKS THROUGH THIS I LINKED MY ADHAAR CARD WITH PHN NUMBER AND IT SAVED MY TIME TOO
Hello Fraud Modi.. Tata docomo can’t able to accept Adhaar number getting failed, what can i do tea master modi ji
I have a Docomo SIM from Jharkhand, now using at Kolkata. While dialing 14546 for linking Aadhar from this number,I am getting reply that dialed number is not valid.
What can be done further ?
In my BSNL Mobile, OTP received after 20 Minutes only. At the same time, mobile connection with 14546 was disconnected due to no entry of OTP. I tried several time. Most of the time i had not received OTP. However i received OTP for two times but which was not worked out due to delayed receipt of OTP from UIDAI. If they arranged online mode of Aadhaar and SIM registration, then it will be helpful to the people. (i.e) As like as PAN & Aadhar Link mode. They are pushing the customers to go to retailers to submit our finger… Read more »
Thanks for the comment. Well, there might be some issue from UIDAI due to which you receive OTP after sometime but this is working fine with other operators. Let’s wait for Government to come up with more better and easy options.
I have adhar card from Andhra Pradesh, SIM from Maharashtra, and I am working in GUjrat. I tried OTP method several times but every time it failed (It appears it is for local mobile with local SIM, means same state mobile and sam state SIM only). Can you you guide further. After sending OTP for final verification to the service provider it says try next time. What shall I do?
Can you send on which No SMS should be sent in case of Airtel, BSNL, TATA DOcomo, Telenor SIM
OTP SMS would arrive on the Mobile Number registered with your Aadhaar Card.
Re verification through this no is not available..

I never got an OTP 🙁
OTP comes on Aadhaar Registered Mobile Number. So make sure you have registered a mobile number to your Aadhaar Card, if not then visit nearest Aadhaar Kendra and do so.
It’s not working in roaming with my airtel number.
What error message do you hear or get?
It says dial again with 0, when I dial again 014546, it says number is not valid.
14546 is the IVRS Number which should work without adding any prefix or suffix.
How to get UID recipient no ??
UID Recipient Number will be provided very soon by your Operator or Network through SMS or Call.
Will will send the UID no. For Vodafone ,Airtel ,idea and Aircel
Every Operator will send the UID Numbers very soon, maybe through SMS or Call.
in the requirement section u mentioned that
Aadhaar Card should have a linked Mobile Number for OTP Verification
are bhai agar aisa hota to fir or kya link karna baki h..yehi to karna h
No, you misunderstood. When we got our Aadhaar card, we might have registered mobile number to it. This means Aadhaar card has mobile number linked. Now, currently as per Government, you have to link Aadhaar Card with all the Mobile Numbers you have. This is not Mobile Number Link to Aadhaar card, it’s Mobile Reverification i.e., Link Aadhaar Card with Mobile Number.
I have been trying to link aadhar from nearly 1 month. After entering OTP a message ‘cannot process request due to some technical issues. Try later’ is getting. What can I do to complete this??
Which operator and circle are you trying in?
