[Resolved]  Airtel Prepaid — Sim card blocking

Address:Bangalore, Karnataka

I had lost my cell phone about 10 days back since then i have been going through horrible customer service from Airtel. I was first not able to block my sim as I had to call airtelprepaid customer service only from a prepaid number which I did not have as I had lost my phone, I had to make 4 calls from my postpaod connection to get the prepaid customer service number and still the issue was not fixed. Then I had to go to the near by Airtel office to block my sim finally I got it blocked.
Then now that I have blocked my sim I had to go to Aitel office 5 times, Everyday they will say sir we do not have the 9845 series duplicate sim issued yet please come tomorrow do I had to go everyday to hear the same story from those . Finally I got my duplicate Sim after about a week and submitted all the necessary documents. Now the lady there at the Airtel customer service outlet in R.T.Nagar said " sir your service will be activated in 4 hours and it was more than 24hrs and it was still not activated. Now calling the customer service is again a problem as my outgoing was barred on my prepaid service. I had call from a landline and waited for an agent and that stupid agent told I have to go to Airtel office again to submit the ID proof which I had already submitted and she did'nt even understand my concern and kept repeating the same thing like a parrot at this point I had lost my patience as she was a dumb who could not identify the problem and I had asked for a supervisor and then I get a supervisor after about 8 minutes and told her my concern she said I will take the request and you outgoing will get activated in 1hr. When the supervisor could do it why could'nt the agent do it. such a ridiculous service. I am fed up of Airtel service the only reason why I am having that sim is because I am using that number from past seven years and I dont like to change my number.

Airtel Telecom Services — unnecessary blocking of sim card

my airtel sim has been blocked since 15 days inspite of submitting the documents twice.
the customer executives are not able to solve my problem and just keep tossing me around to visit the center and are giving lame excuse that the server is down since 10-15 days.
i need to take a strict action against the service provider (AIRTEL).
hi,
myself deepti,
i lost my phone yesterday n when today morning, along with the copy of the complaint letter i lodged in the nearby police stn, i went to airtel's office to get my sim blocked and i was extremely disappointed at the reply i got from your official.
she replied that the prepaid connections never gets blocked there is only a way n tht is to have a duplicate sim.
may i know how is this possible with airtel only that a customer is unable to block his prepaid sim when all the other service providers are available with the successful blocking facility of their lost sim cards?

hoping a sound suggestion.

regards
Deepti.

which is a prepaid lifetime connection. i am still having that sim card but now this showing invalid after inserting in mobile device, and now this same mobile number is reissue by airtel to any other person who has stolen my identification detail and he is using that number in a wrong way and doing adult massages to my colleagues and relatives who are calling on that number.

I have make the last call on mobile number [protected] and i have done the last and final recharge of Rs 10/- only.And i want to inform you that i am not using this number from 19th-sep-2010 till now.

The number is registered in the name of Mr. ibrahim, resident of H.No.18-7-198/a208/13 talab katta aman nagar-b hyd-500018.And also i am already submitted the documents required for detailed verification at airtel office last week but sim card is still on working I would be very grateful if the simcard is blocked so that no one else can make use of it and i would also like to know the procedure as to obtain a new sim card for the same number.

Kindly do the needful to block that SIM card ([protected]), any one is calling on this number the suspected person ravi swami recieving call every time and he using abuse language on to calling party
i am requesting you to do the complete varification and block that SIM card permanently.

For your information i am telling you he hasn't any relationship with Mr. ibrahim.

Please do the needful.
