[Resolved] Airtel — Odd Billing Cycle | |||
This is an odd issue which even Airtel folks are unable to explain to me. The Airtel bill arrives promptly on 26th of every month, and sometimes I miss paying the bill because it was difficult for me to keep track of these bills, and as other household bills arrive at the beginning of the month. Hence, I requested Airtel to send the bill on 5th of every month, for which every one from top to bottom at Airtel are referring to a mysterious "policy" or that the bill is "pre-determined". As a customer, I simply do not understand why their system lacks this flexibility to accommodate this request. Are they really fit to be a national player in broadband if they cannot address small issues like these. There used to be a time where customer was the king. Now the way Airtel responds it appears as if they want to quit this industry ASAP. I am showing the transcript of my communications with them down below. This is just to show the great lengths I have gone to try to get a job done, and the apathy of the existing Airtel setup. ------- nodal.[protected]@airtel.in [nodal.[protected]@airtel.in] Sent: Friday, November 04, 2011 6:28 PM To: Poornachandra Upadhya Dear Mr. Upadhya, Warm greetings from airtel Telemedia Services.
