Sir,

The amount is held up at AIR INDIA for more than six Months. I am wholly dependant on my retired husband, with no other source of Income. Whenever I sent mails, I was receiving just Computer Generated stereo type answers OR unwarranted queries’ just to buy time.
In case you want to know the mail contents, u may call back from them / I can forward it for your reference. BUT, please see that my amount is refunded without further loss of time.

With Regards. ( Bharati Ramanand Hegde )

I have raised many queries and also emailed them for the refund of my ticket worth Rs 1, 04, 927. But I am not able to get it from last 2 months.

Please look into it and do the needful.

Then his mind changed again he asked me training fee 8300 for 15days and it's also refundable in 1st month of salary, so i had paid rs.8300via paytm and he said to pay mnr processingfees (15, 230) rupees, he said don't worry we air india do not do such thing pay till today i will dispatch letter today. I asked him where letter, he is telling dear 24300 pay till tomorrow then only you will receive your original offer letter..So what i will do?

I am writing this complaint against Air India. Air india staff has stolen my gold jewellery from my luggage. I traveller through air india on 16th aug 2020 from delhi to coimbatore with flight AI512.

They opened my bag and took my pendant set with mangalsutra and a ring. When i reached home and opened my bag i saw these things missing from my bag. I didn't go anywhere in between and nobody came to my house after reaching so i am sure things have been stoled during flight by Air India staff.

I have got 2 group tickets each with 8 tickets. These were booked on february before lock down and its declaration. During lock down. Air india cancelled these tickets without even a mail. Now i am trying to get the refund since may 2020. We have send many mails to ecommerce, called many times to the customer care. Every time they pick up the call, they put it on hold asking us to wait. I will be waiting for 15 to 20 minutes, then the call gets connected. This is happening since then.
Only acknowledge mail is receiving from ecommerce.
Please refund my amount at the earliest. Please give me a response. At least call me back or get me mail. Getting such poor customer care from such a reputed company like air india is so bad

I have made a payment of inr 3360.00 (Paid a total of rs.3, 371.80 including transaction/bank fee via hdfc netbanking, bank narration: shdf[protected]/billdkair india, transaction ref no.

Respected Sir/Madam,
This is to complaint against Air India as I had booked my flight from Aurangabad to Delhi AirIndia AI-442 for 7 August and from Delhi to Aurangabad for 16 August AI-441.
Booking PNR HYMYS -7 August
Booking PNR Y39QW -16 August
We have contacted your customer care executive multiple times for the same, but with no help from their end. The flight has been cancelled from their end and the customer care executive, Megha told us that we are not eligible for refund with no valid reason given to us. It has been a horrible experience talking to your customer care team as they hold no authority to help us. I have been cheated by AirIndia as well as goibibo who owe me my money back. I need my full refund back for both the flights.
Regards,
Dr Kashish Sharma
