I have recently ported my number [protected] from other service provider to airtel. From the very first day 17th november 2017. I have been trying to activate missed call alert and call conference service. But after 10 days of service request i am only able to activate missed call alert but till date unable to get any positive response from airtel end for activation of call conference service. I am very surprised to see that everytime any problem arises i have to keep on following up with their team but haven't got any call back. Moreover after following up for the same the services have not been activated. This is really very frustrating and unprofessional from a brand who advertise to listen to customer. I really feel pity on myself for choosing airtel over vodafone. This kind of services is not at all acceptable.

Regards
Himadri debnath

    I got a message today that videopindw service has been activated @ rs 30.0 for 7day (S). Service will be renewed after validity expiry. To use, click http://bit.ly/actvnvp (Data charges apply). To deactivate, call or sms stop to 155223. More services? Call 56789
    I didn't even opt for this then why this has happened to me?
    I deactivated the service through my airtel app. I want to ask why do you activate any service without customer acceptance. I want my money back.

      Last month even after not utilizing the data balance for airtel postpaid, airtel charged 500 rs for data charges. While looking at exceptionally high bill i checked the bill thoroughly and found that it is incorrect. After complaining at customer care they accepted the fault and told that it has been happening with all customers, but they did not do anything on their own and took action only after i complained.
      This month also the same problem is happening with my bill and it seems that this is some trick by airtel, those who dont check their bill will fall prey to the situation.

        Dear madam/sir,

        I am facing very bad network issue since october and after giving complaints too there is no changes in the quality.

        For internet and calling facilities i am paying around 1000/- rupees per month but it seems they don't care about the consumer's issues. I think its time to port the number as they don't left any options for us.

        Please do the needful.

        Thanks & regards,
        Sameer

          Hi,
          My internet speed is very slow with speed of 2g, most of the times it doesn't work at all. Also i am facing voice drop and call drop issues. Every time they enquire, register a complain and promise to resolve it in few days, but those few days never gets over. I have been facing this issues regarding poor network and internet connectivity from long time and now i am thinking to port my number. I am really very very disappointed with airtel service.

          Thanks.

              Not sure how this mail is processed. I am writing this as a last resort. Probably a mail bot will send me an auto response.

              Firtly, i have a 40mbps vdsl broadband connection but this connection is supported by airtel 4g hotspot from my phone!!! Ironic.

              - ever since airtel shifted to vdsl, the consistency and reliability of bandwidth has deteriorated.
              - i believe, the entire airtel chain of hierarchy is aware of it but there is little done to alleviate the pain
              - i have never got 40mbps save the first 1 week since the #.
              - i have made repeated request to 121 to do something about my bill. They have put the onus on me to beg and get the changes done. I definitely do not think it is customer delight in anyway.

              I also under the reason because of all the tpvs that airtel has brought in for wireless services and keeps all the controls centrally. This is ridiculous in any form if airtel wants to have a great customer sat.

              Essentially, the front line team has no authority or power to delight the customer and now the service has become even worse.

              I have attached a few of 100s of screen shorts on the type of bandwidth i get.

              Please resolve the issue technically and financially.

              Thankfully, we now have other broadband service providers as options and i have been extremely patient despite paying top dollar for the services.

              Regards sunil kumar

                They simply deducted rs.35 for a week and added that it will be renewed after 1 week validity. To deactivate sms stop to 155223. And the money is gone.

                I deactivated it and next day another rs.49 got deducted for hot chillies without ant request from our part. This is frustrating us. I am gonna port to idea soon.

                This is pure kind of fraudulent activity. It's disgusting. They just pick pocket us especially from those struggling to meet the both ends.

                  I checked with the airtel customer care on isd charges for calling australia and was informed to be as rs.10/min flat. But when the bill came i was charged at rs.200/min. I raised a complaint with appellate team and they went through my call with their customer care executive and confirmed an error from their end in providing me the correct rates. The extra amount charged was adjusted on 17th nov 2017 and was told to pay remaining amount of 2555.41 against which i made a payment of 2560 the same day. Now the adjusted amount is showing back on my account and i'm struggling again with the airtel team. This is causing a lot of harassment and mental agony.
                  My phone number in question is[protected] and i can be contacted at [protected]

                          Airtel is charging rs.120 every month for this adofgames service. This is being done without user's consent or confirmation. No action has be taken against this practice even after numerous complaints.
                          Adofgames service has been renewed on your airtel [protected]@rs120.0 for 30days. To deactivate, call or sms stop to 155223

                          To which authority can we make an official complaint?

                            Our fixedline/broadband connection [protected] was working well till 21st nov 2017. Same was on adsl and without any request from our end, there was an attempt to convert it to vdsl from airtel. Configuration was never successful and internet connection is down since then.

                            Service id 90460782 registered on 21st nov 2017 remains unresolved in spite of daily follow up and escalation. Every day a new promise is made to resolve the issue in next 24 hours. Reversal back to adsl is also rejected. Issue has cause huge in-convenience and repeated waste of hours together on daily basis to explain issue to customer service desk and technicians.

                            Yesterday there was a call from escalation manager who promised to act immediately but nothing happened there after.

                            We have been loyal customers of airtel and have been paying rs. 999 for mere 2mbps/100 gb connection. Request your kind attention to solve the issue at the earliest.

                            We stay in an apartment complex with several airtel broadband connections, if issue remains unresolved i shall share my experience with other users in the complex to avoid them ending up with same problem

                              My 4g sevices are not working and i contacted ur customer care services which were of no use to me as after they said ur data would be working in an hour but it did not happen and now i m frustated with them as they are not doing anything. I have always loved airtel and always recharged rs 899 pack and i loved this pack but now it is not working since past 7 days and bcoz of which i rechached again with a new pack of worth 349 yesterday which said the recharge have been done but i m unable to use it. I want my 349rs cash back and this is very disappointing to me that ur customercare services are of no use bcoz they dont help instead tells about whats going on nowdays and etc. And i have always done big recharges. So please kindly pay attention to this situation and return my 349 rs.

                                Data pack of 3G-Rs29-115MB-30Days was activated on my prepaid mobile number [protected] in April 2017.
                                I am requesting the customer care since August 2017, every month, to deactivate above data pack but money is being deducted constantly, every month, from
                                my account in spite of assurances given on phone by the customer care executive.

                                      I had some problem with my airtel recharge so i went to madhu vihar airtel store. Mr himanshu, the contact person told me that they don't have any software for resolving prepaid issues. After a while i confirmed his statement from airtel customer care but his statement was incorrect. Strict action against him must be taken to miscuide the customer.
