Cleaning up Bank Support table: new section

← Older revision		Revision as of 14:24, 5 October 2026
Line 8:		Line 8:

	--[[User:BadriHippo\|BadriHippo]] ([[User talk:BadriHippo\|talk]]) 12:30, 3 February 2026 (IST)		--[[User:BadriHippo\|BadriHippo]] ([[User talk:BadriHippo\|talk]]) 12:30, 3 February 2026 (IST)

			== Cleaning up Bank Support table ==

			The table about [[NUUP#Bank support]] has many cells stating support as,

			<blockquote>
			{{Tick}} on Airtel, but {{Cross}} on Vi, which truncates at `@` and claims "invalid UPI ID"
			</blockquote>

			Instead of this, we should change those cells to just say {{Tick}} because the problem is related to provider support but the table is about bank support, not provider support. If you use a bank but an unsupported provider, then it will obviously not work.

			If needed, we could emphasise explicitly somewhere that to use NUUP you need to both have a SIM with a supported provider ''and'' use a supported bank.
