baggage mishandled / loss / pir delay 39990

Air india Flight No. 0142, from CDG-Paris to DEL-Delhi on 25th September 2021
------

It has been 13 days that you did not find out my luggage. What a bad luggage service and customer care service provided by Air India. What an unprofessional work you are doing.

This 8th October 2021 I still did not have any relevant replies (no emails, no calls) from Air India, they are not working in a collaborative...

Incorrect refund amount processed,
-40% deducted as No-show incorrectly;
-wrong guidance by Air India customer care(call recordings can be scrutinized) - genuine case -
-as a customer, I have full rights to receive mine & my son's 100% ticket refund, following up since 5months. ticket#- [protected]/70 (PNR - Y743R)Hyd- Chicago(USA) flight for 5May2021

Background - Due to US India travel ban in pandemic, My son and myself could not board our flight dated 5thMay 2021, (PNR-Y743R);ticket#- [protected]/70; as we had US tourist visa. When I contacted the customer care helpline prior to my flight date multiple times, I was informed that my flight is already showing as cancelled and they did not recommend cancelling my ticket since the flight is already cancelled, however again received a mixed guidance. However, to be on safe side, I raised a refund with the Air India team on 6thMay2021, which they registered but they processed only 60% amount as refund (after 4 months) and have withheld 56, 700/INR incorrectly with Air India depicted as 'No-show' - they deducted 40% of the amount, this is a huge amount for me and I am in need of it. Please intervene to support in any way possible. It has been almost 5 months through this challenging process.

I have approached all forums here but in vain. I have call recordings of Air India customer care who mentioned that my flight is cancelled yet they processed it as I have a 'No-show'
1) I have written emails to Air India ecommerce ID - no proper support, no revert
2) I have raised multiple ticket IDs with Air India customer care (Case ID#[protected]Aug; Case ID#[protected]Jul;)
2) I have raised ticket on Consumer grievance portal - after which I received incorrect amount 60% refund - withheld almost 57000/-INR (CPGRAMS grievance complaint# MOCAV/E/2021/05871)
3) I have visited Air India office - they asked to raise a feedback form to legal team
4) I have raised the feedback form (Ref No. WB-IHYD[protected], their response seems to be only suggesting the incorrect refund amount.

    My ticket is canceled several months ago and I haven’t received a refund yet. This is how’s reputed airline like air india can work . I can file a case in germany regarding this issue if I don’t get my refund back in three business day.

    On 13.04.2021 I booked tickets for germany to Bangalore and also return tickets. Ticket cost 574euros.

    I got cancellation confirmation too. But till date I dint receive my refund. This is clearly unprofessional .

      I bought a ticket (eTicket No:[protected] on Air India Flight, AI 142 from Paris to New Delhi on Monday, 12th of October, 2020 which I then cancelled on Wednesday, 14th of October, by calling their helpline. The flight was from Paris to New Delhi for the 16th of October, 2020.

      I was informed by e-mail from '[protected]@airindia.in' that my refund had been processed on the 7th of December, 2020. But I never received the money back. I shared all my bank transaction details for December and January with them(and also with '[protected]@airindia.in') to prove that I didn't get the refund. I also got in touch with my bank who confirmed that there were no pending transactions on my credit card in either December, 2020 or January, 2021. All my e-mails to either '[protected]@airindia.in' or '[protected]@airindia.in' since then have gone unanswered. I have spoken to the Air India helpline who keeps repeating since January that they are escalating the matter and it will be treated in 2-3 weeks but so far, almost one year after, I still haven't received my refund. How long more do I need to wait to get my refund?

        I have to reschedule my flight.
        I started communication with Executive and they said will receive call from ticketing dept within 2 Hrs. Same day I call them 8 Times and everytime they said will receive call from Ticketing Dept. within 2 Hrs. but no call from dept. Next day same story but received call from Dept and they charged me Rs 3000 and I ask for reason they disconnected the call. I tried again to connect with them but could not.
        Today they called me know they are asking to pay Rs. 6500, when I asked for reason they said will connect the call to senior, senior heard my concern and again connected to Ticketing Dept without providing any resolution. The call got disconnected as exceed the time limit.

        Air India is making fraud by charging additional charges without any problem justification

              My husband Capt Awanish Pratap Rao had his air india flight AI 9836 from Pathankot to Delhi on 2nd Sept 2021 at 15:25. The booking reference no is Z7K1J. The ticket ID is [protected]. His flight got delayed by 2 hours 15 mins. And revised timing was 5:40.
              Since he had a connecting flight from Delhi to Mumbai on the very same day, he would have missed the flight because of this delay.

              Hence he called Air india customer care and he was asked to cancel the ticket and refund will be issued regarding the same. But it's been more than 30 days and I haven't yet received the refund.

              He called air india more than 10 times and they just put it on hold for long and won't tell the status of refund. We also sent an email for which they replied to fill the feeback form. The feedback form wasn't opening. We sent screenshot of the same to them but there is no reply from their side. We are not getting any response about the refund.

                          I booked a flight for my parents on the 21st of March which I had to cancel on call. The agent promised me that I will receive a partial refund for my order.

                          Since then it has been 6 months and after multiple followups I still haven't received my refund. They claim that the refund has been processed on the 10th of April 2021 but, on one of the calls, their own escalation team member mentioned that the refund is still pending with their refunds team.

                          He promised a callback in 3 days and a refund in 7 days but none of it happened. I have written to the Chief Vigilance Officer as well but haven't received a response

                            Air India cancelled my ticket due to covid-19 and I requested for a full refund of my tickets but it has been more than a year that I am waiting for the same .
                            I am trying call there customer care no. But could not reach them . Once I managed to talk to them and they said it has been processed but still I have not got any refund .
                            My £1000 are stuck with air India with us really financially depressing for me .
                            Please help me with the problem above .
                            Thanks

                                  Dear Sir/Ma'am
                                  The refund for the flight cancellation by the Airlines has not been processed or received. The flight was scheduled for May 10, 2021 which was cancelled but never received the refund. Many attempts have been made via e-mail and customer care service but to no avail. I have been told the same thing since last 2 months that the refund is being processed. But neither have I received any refund nor have I received any assurance that I will be receiving the same. Kindly help with this matter.

                                  Please include the ticket while in consideration to avoid confusion as I am representing my sibling, in whose name the ticket is booked.
                                  Thank You
