[Resolved]  Airtel — CUG facility offered by the company

Address:400068

I have two Airtel mobile numbers and both are part of the same CUG plan. Last year i.e. May'2015 I had complained to Airtel customer care that I am not getting benefit of my CUG plan for which they said that both my numbers have a different parent ID and hence I am not receiving benefit of the CUG plan. The point to be noted here is that Airtel executive had come to my office and he had given both the numbers to me. Now obviously as a lay man I would not know if both the numbers have the same parent ID or a different one. This was the duty of the Airtel executive.
After a lot of follow ups Airtel confirms to me that the issue has be resolved and I got a mail confirmation from them saying that the request has been raised and this is what they had written back to me, "However, I would like to inform that I have registered your request for parent ID updation and your reference number is 61721011. It will be resolved by 11:44 AM on[protected]. - Rekha Venkatarathnam Krishnaiah Service Specialist" and " would like to inform that I have registered your request and your reference number is 61692615. It will be resolved by[protected] Kalyani V". Two service specialist have sent me two different reference numbers and still the issue is unsolved. I have copy of all the mails that they have sent.

Now when I check my itemised bill, I realize I am still being charged for the calls that I am making to the CUG number and when raised a complaint with the Airtel customer care, they are not addressing this issue and stating the amount has been charged correctly where the bill specifically states the amount I have been charged for the CUG number.

Find names of the executive I have interacted at Airtel till now:
- Buddha Bhargavganesh
- Kalyani V
- Rekha Venkatarathnam Krishnaiah
- Yuva Murugan
- Kamakhya Singh
- Rohini Chandra Khangembam Singh
- Kamakhya Singh
- Ovita DSouza

This is utter cheating.. There has been no resolution to my concern here and Airtel customer care is just beating around the bush and not giving a solution to my issue..

Hi Akansha,

The resolution you have given is only a rebate of meager Rs. 270/- that too only for one bill what about the earlier bills and what is the status of the parent ID being updated?

You guys are cheating the customers. There is no resolution mechanism here. You only beat around the bush with the same thing again and again. I have been telling that I have been charged excess amount for my CUG number since May'15 and you give me a 270 rs discount!! What logic is this??

Have you taken any steps to change the parent ID???? I do not wish to change my plan and why should I for the mistake you guys have made???
