My Airtel Post paid plan phone number is[protected]
I have registered the number at Salem, Tamilnadu
I was paying the bills to Airtel till date without any hitch
I have been shifted to Tiruchirappalli on transfer on 10.04.2008
Since then I was paying my mobile post paid bills by cash to M/s Sri Vinayaga Associates, 9/100, Karur Bye Pass Road, TRICHY 620 018
To my surprise I received a call on 24.06.2008 from Customer Care, Chennai that I have not remitted my bills and a sum of Rs.425 is to be paid immediately, to continue my connection.
I give hereunder the details of the cash bills issued by Airtel franchisees, from which you may understand that there is no bill for Rs.425 on my mobile.
01.Receipt No.[protected] dt. 29.02.2008 for Rs.470.00 paid by cash to M/s B K Cell Comm., KR Square, 116, Omaloor Main Road, Salem.
02. Receipt No. 187 dt. 29.03.2008 for Rs.502.00 issued by M/s Prem Tel, 22C/7, Shiva Plaza, Saradha College Road, Salem 636 016.
03. Receipt No.[protected] dated 29.04.2008 for Rs.502.00 issued by M/s Sri Vinayaga Associates, 9/100, Karur Bye Pass Road, Trichy.
04. Receipt No.[protected] dated 02.05.2008 for Rs.210.00 issued by M/s Sri Vijayaga Associates, 9/100, Karur Bye Pass Road, Trichy
05. Receipt No.[protected] dated 28.05.2008 for Rs.670.00 issued by M/s Sri Vijanaya Associates, 9/100, Karur Bye Pass Road, Trichy.
Incidentally, I wish to state that when my son remitted Rs.712.00 on 29.04.2008 the dealer has issued a receipt for Rs.502.00 only. The mistake was found out on my return from my office and I asked my son to verify with the dealer. The dealer has informed my son that they will be verifying the payment and then do the needful. They have given a separate receipt for Rs.210.00 on 02.05.2008, as stated above.
On receiving the message from Customer Care, Chennai on 24.06.2008, I asked my son to verify the payment details with the dealer. On verification, the dealer informed my son that I have a balance of Rs.425.00 to be paid. When my son insisted for the account details, he was again told that the account will be checked and informed later.
On 25.06.2008 at 17.47.10 Hrs. I received a message from PymtCon of Airtel which reads as under :
We confirm the receipt o[censored]r payment for Rs.425.
Cheque payments are subject to realisation. For
payment details calll our toll free No. 12114.
Sender : (no name) PymtCon
Received : 17:47:10 25.06.2008
From the above details, I clearly drive home the point that there is deficiency of service by Airtel through their franchisee M/s Sri Vinayaga Associates, 9/100, Karur Byepass Road, Trichy 620 018.
I am a Bank Manager and I was on an important customer meeting at 4.00 pm when I received a call from Customercare, Chennai detailed above. This has put me in an awkward position before my customers and I felt mentally tortured.
Kindly take up the matter with the concerned and find out the truth what is happening in Airtel billing system with the particular Franchisee or Airtel in general. Where the mistake has crept in ? Why I was forced to pay Rs.425.00 which is not at all a bill amount for my mobile phone ?
I shall be thankful for getting a redressal through your goodselves.
Thank you for patiently hearing my voice.

Airtel — Activation of services without any consent
Hi AllThis is to inform you that I was treated so rudely by customer care team that I had to literally abuse teh lady agent. Basically I wanted to activate GPRS on my mobile and I called up Care team for that but three agent told me that they wud have to keep the call on hold to seek inforamtion and they simply disconencted the call, I got very frustrated and I called teh dept. once again, this time a picked up the call ( Durga ) and refused to transfer the call to supervisor and said ( agar teko supervisor se baat karne ki hai to raat me 10 baje ke baad phone kar ) this is the way she was speaking to me, I there fore angrily abused her for the rude behavior, she then went ahead adn disconnected the call saying ( tere number ke saath dekh kya karti ).
After 15 minutes of the call my Missed Call Alert service was activate without any consent and Rs 15/- got deducted from my account, further to that hello tunes got activated for 365 days and teh tune was a piglet.
I have made a complaint againxt this in custoemr care dept. on the same day and spoke to Mangesh ( Floor Supervisor ) he checked details and apologised for same adn promised teh refund fo the deducted amount also told that other service wud get deactivated within 24 hrs time.
But I kept on receving call from one number which was from Vega Centre ( Pune ) who was actually activating the services and also had a big argument with me over the fone regarding the same. The person who was calling from Vega Centre was Ajay according to him. Now I am unalbe to use the service.
Kindly do the needfull for above mentioned issue.
