[Resolved]  Bharti Airtel — Faulty Billing and Usage Summary

Address:Kolkata, West Bengal

I, Mayukh Bhattacharya, user of Airtel Broadband Connection for the past 3 months am extremely miffed with their billing procedures. I have unlimited plan which gives me 5GB downloads @ 2MBPS and 512kbps thereafter. The problem is that this 5GB quota gets exhausted within the first 10 days of the month regardless of the fact whether I download or not. I have read similar complaints so I guess I am not the only sufferer. This month, my billing started on the 11th of November and today I got a mail stating that I have already downloaded more than 4gb and have only 0.89 gb worth of high speed data usage left. When I went on to my detailed usage summary, it shows that I have downloaded approximately 533 mb on 13th of November whereas in reality I had downloaded approximately 845 mb! And on 11th of November it shows I have downloaded approximately 700 mb whereas I didn't download anything as such on that very day! This happens every month and is really annoying. I have another friend with the same plan who has the same complain. Its disappointing that such a reputed company is dealing with its customers in such a way. I have sent them an email regarding this issue and am hoping for a sincere reply. Mayukh Bhattacharya. Kolkata.

I wrote on the official facebook page of Airtel India. They have taken down my contact number and have told me that they will contact me tomorrow and resolve my problem! Eagerly waiting for their call.

Airtel customer service said that they have reset my modem so I should not be facing data consumption problems any more. So I take their words and I will keep track to ensure that no further incident like this occurs.

Thanks!

So I send an email to airtel stating that I am unhappy with their services and all of a sudden they decide to give me an additonal data pack of Rupees 299 without me even asking for it. This is thoroughly unprofessional on their part and really annoying!
