But First, What Kind of Loan Are We Talking About?
Airtel, in its infinite wisdom, offers a few different loan options, so before we dive in, let's identify the culprit:

-
The "I-Need-Just-a-Sliver-of-Data-to-Google-Something-Important" Loan: This is your classic data loan, perfect for those moments when you need a quick fix. You can check the status of this loan by dialing *500# and selecting the option for "Borrow Data."
-
The "I-Swear-I'll-Pay-You-Back-After-My-Next-Salary" Loan: This is the slightly bigger personal loan offered through the Airtel Thanks app. To check the status of this loan, you'll need to log in to the app and navigate to the "Airtel Finance" section.
Remember: Always borrow responsibly, folks! These loans are meant for emergencies, not to fuel your Netflix binge-watching habits (although, we've all been there too...).
