[Resolved]  Airtel Prepaid Mobile Connection — Blocking of SIM

Address:Ernakulam, Kerala

I am Sasi Kumar, a customer of Prepaid mobile connection with . My no. is [protected] and have been using the same for more than 4 yrs. On 19 May 10, i noticed that my mobile had stopped getting connected to the service showing 'No Network Coverage'. I then swithced off the mobile and reset my connection by extracting the SIM once from its slot, reinserting it and switching on my mobile again. The network connectivity was still absent and a message read ' SIM registration not completed'. I then contacted the local Airtel Office for rectification. What i got to know from them was that the exact reason for the disconnection is not known to them and that the same has happened from 13 May 10 whereas the connection was alive with usage of calls as well as sms facitlity till 18 May 10. I addition, i was adviced by the staff at the local office that i may need to apply for a fresh SIM on the same no. A fresh copy of photo and id proof was also collected by the local office for issuing me with a fresh SIM. But it was also opined that the same would take some time and would not be immediate. Moreover, it is important to mention that about Rs 200 worth of charge was available as balance/credit with the previous SIM. I would like to bring out the fact that no prior intimation of disconnection of the service was sent to me for taking any corrective action. I am writing this mail/complaint to redress my grievance and early corrective action.

Airtel/Mobile Prepaid — Connection barred without any reason or intimation

Its with great pain and anguish I'm writing this, I really regret to say that one of the worst decision in my life was to go for an Airtel Prepaid connection. In last two week's time, Airtel has blocked my connection twice apparently without any reason neither giving any intimation. Is this the way to handle a customer, is this the Airtel's much proclaimed customer service?

My problem started by second week of February, when all of a sudden my outgoing calls was barred without any prior intimation. After making repeated calls to customer care unit, one of the executive responded by saying that the connection was blocked due to some problem with address verification. On further request on how to re-activate the sim, executives themselves had conflicting answers to my queries which was really disgusting for me as a customer who turned out for help and support. I thought I would have a solution if I go and meet an authorized person in aCustomer Care Center, atleast I thought they would show the patience to hear my complaint and help me out with a solution. Expectations was sky high when I walked into Airtel Customer Care Center in Koramangala 7th Block, Bangalore; for a customer who was already in a state of flux believed this was the last fall back. My expectation was thoroughly shaken up by the response I got from Shwetha (Prepaid Connection - Customer Support Executive), she showed sheer arrogance and attitude in responding to my queries. Finally after half an hour she saidthe connection was barred due to the fact that address verification process was negative. Further, after a lengthy discussion she said to give the local residing address and told me that the connection would be re-activated withing 24 hours. The long wait continued for 24 hours and finally I got my SIM re-activated. Later on 13 February 2010 my SIM has been again barred, when I checked withcustomer care executive they have informed me to take a duplicate SIM as they said Airtel has scrapped off my SIM (WOW !).

I've send a detailed email to the following address on Feb 14, 2010 and till now I haven't got any response. If Airtel's senior managers are so irresponsible phew!! how can I expect support from Customer Support Executives. Hence, I would like to take this up legally and sueAirtel. Kindly advice how to proceed.
Dear Vinay,

I've already sent a detailed email with my contact details on Feb 14, 2010 to the following email id's:
[protected]@airtelindia.com,
nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in,
appellate.[protected]@airtel.in
and the sad part is that, apart from the auto generated emails till now I haven't got any proper response. As requested I can forward the mail trail to [protected]@airtel.in. Meanwhile, following are my contact details:
Contact Number: [protected]
email: [protected]@gmail.com

Let me know if this helps me to find a solution to my problem.
It's more annoying to say that, even after providing my contact details you have cared to give me a follow up call. What I understand from this is somehow you want to close my complaint by stating a response that, you don't have my contact number. PHEW !

FOR SURE NO MORE AIRTEL SERVICE !!!

Airtel — Number blocked for no reason

I had an airtel number [protected] and they have disconnected my number without any reason without any prior information. I have over 1400 rupees in that number and they are neither re-funding back my money nor starting my number again.

I took a number from airtel on Thur, 17th June and got it rehcharged of an amount of Rs.1500 on Sat,19th June. I had been using the number since 3rd July until Fri, 22nd July when I saw my sim doesnt catch network. I called up the customer care - the guy told me my sim would start in 24 hrs. It did not start. Then I called up again they asked me to email nodal officer. I emailed twice (ref no.[protected] and[protected]and got an email saying they would get back in 24 hrs. They did not get back. I went to the customer care centre. They said they would call me on Tuesday they did not. Then i spoke to nodal office Arpana on Wed, July 28. She said the problem was "insufficient documentation". I told her I did submit my drivers license and also filled a proper form. And that if that was the case how was I able to use it for so many days. Also, you send a message to submit documents again. I did not get that.Then she said she would call me in 24hrs. She did not. Then i called her on Mon, Aug 2. She said nothing can be done. I told her I would raise a complaint. She said you can do whatever you want.

Please help. This is not the right way to deal with a customer. I want my money back.
