Hello,
I tried to recharge my phone no. Through my airtel payment bank a/c but it showed that the recharge is failed and transaction is unsuccessful. So i tried again and the same thing happened again, so i recharged my phone no. Through phonepe app.
Now after 2 hours i got a message from airtel payment bank that your recharge is successful and i got charged twice with rs. 448 i. E. Total rs.896 from my airtel payment bank.
So this is completely fraud happened to me, i want my complete money (Rs. 896) back.
Transaction id as showing in airtel payment bank is[protected].
Only one transaction is showing while the money is deducted twice.
Kindly respond as soon as possible.

    There is no proper response. Since two weeks i am trying to take a new airtel connection, but whenever i visit the office they are saying stock is not present
    Even if they are not responding properly...
    They people out there are just simply using the room for chit chatting in groups
    Under air conditioned room not even responding to the customers

    Hi,

    I have recently migrated my mobile number from Reliance to Airtel, but I am not receiving any SMS from my airtel sim card, and my number is [protected]
    please resolve immediately.
    Airtel website serves no good, we cannot view our bill details. whether its new bill or past within 6 months.
    Earlier website was good and all details were available but this new application is not friendly.

      Airtel deducted amount 49 and then 35 from my airtel balance. My number is [protected]. And i never activated any topdoctoronline offer. I complained before but it is not solved yet. Again my balance deducted and all i can do is complaint here. My balance is about to be 0. Airtel is deducting my balance on the name of topdoctoronline. And i don't even know what topdoctoronline is. This is really annoying airtel fix this.

      Airtel is giving it's 399 offer for people 2hi buy new sim cards, but the offer is not available for people who has been it's customer for more than 2 decades. Shame on them. I'll Soon be switching. To Jio. Ungrateful people.

        Kindly note that, sim is in basic nokia mobile, does not any game applications.

        Moreover i never activated the link, how can you charge rs 300?

        Its kind of stealing money from customers.

            As discussed with cusomer care executive, mnp charges should be ₹19 only. But here in jajpur road, odisha mnp centre ask for ₹100. Even they refused to talk with customer care executive. Actually what is happening here i am totally confused. The same airtel retail store persons were not willing to talk with same organization airtel-customer executives. Asking regarding the charges they said that the amount ₹100 is only porting charges. Again i have to give extra amount excluding ₹100 for other recharge packs. What a # is this. I guess a lot of customers who want to mnp their number to airtel had also dropped their porting plan due to this type of corruption by mnp centres. Please take necessary actions regarding this., otherwise customers will not go for mnp their numbers to airtel anymore.

              I am getting an incorrect bill since past 3 months. I have raised my concern twice to the contact center but again got an incorrect bill today. I have taken a plan of 399+ taxes but i am getting a bill of rs. 946/- where i am charged for services like sms which have been offered to me for free. The charges were waived off from past 2 months but i can't keep repeating my complaint. Need an end to this!

                  I am airtel network user from new delhi and having 6 connection of airtel no. (Prepaid and post paid both), currently from last 1 month network condition of airtel is very pathetic and bad, i also lounge a complaint on airtel portal about this from the number ([protected]) but no any action taken from company side, we are even not able to receive any call from anyone due to network issue, after we are getting msg alert for missed call, then we came to know that some one is calling, internet connectivity so poor even in 4g speed,
                  We are very much upset and frustrated because of this, because in current scenario mobile is a part of life and it create a problem in our day to day routine job.
                  Pls rectify it otherwise we have to switch some other network.

                    I did a recharge of rs. 399.00 to avail the benefit of free local+std calls + 1 gb data for 70 days. It was done after getting promotional messages received from airtel. But, today, after expiry of only 28 days, my outgoing calls are being charged which should have been free for 70 days. Requesting airtel to extend the free calls + 1gb data for balance 42 days.

                      Hi,

                      There was a wrong deduction of my account balance today for airtel number [protected]. 35 rupees was deducted due to lifestyle dressing room service. Could you please refund the money as the money was wrongly deducted. I request to not to repeat this kind of deductions in future as it leads to low balance trouble unknowingly.

                        Attention: mr. Joseph george & others

                        I am being cheated by airtel since the last 2-3 months!... Account no. [protected].

                        I am being charged rent for 3 connections even though one connection has not been working over the last two months or so due to a problem at airtel end. The situation has been persisting in spite of several complaints looked over the last couple of months or so. (Telephonic request no. 67963523.) in order to ensure continuity of services, i am compelled to pay the rent for all 3 connections in spite of communication to airtel about the fault from this end... This means that airtel is charging and forcing me to pay for services that are not single provided.

                        This is downright harrassment and cheating.

                        Resolution hoped :
                        (1) refund of the excess amount charged
                        (2) all three connections to be in order
                        (3) no additional charges to be charged to me for the resolution (Includes - ensuring that all three connections work.)
                        (4) compensation equivalent to atleast one month's rent for the harrassment caused by airtel.

                                Hi,
                                Amount of rs 99 got deducted from my prepaid number "international roaming rental charges" without any reason on 2 nov 2017.
                                Number :[protected]. Please refund me my amount.
                                Also my data pack expired before 28 days. I had recahrged it on 25 oct and now today on 22 nov i am not able to use my data or call. I had recharged for 349 (Monthly with 1.5 gb per day and unlimited calls) i may have to port my number if these things continue to happen.
                                It is really very frustrating to keep a check on thse things

                                Thanks

                                    Dear operator,

                                    My mother is using your mobile services for number [protected] and from past 2 days she is not able use her phone due to some issues from your end.

                                    She has been complaining at your costumer care number about the same, but they are not at all helpful.

                                    They have been telling her that it will start to work in 24 hours, then 72, and then many more hours are being added, still not working.

                                    Your costumer care has been behaving very badly, saying "naa ho raha sahi, kar lo karna hai".

                                    Then she finally came to know that her issue is not even got registered as they did not register her complain.
                                    Let me know if what is your solution to this problem or we should switch to other better service providers.

                                    We placed our trust on you and your services, but as it appears they are not mobile services but "get harassed services by airtel and its staff"

                                    Regards

                                      Hi, i am not receiving any sms from any network except airtel most of the times, further i am not getting messages from various banks, irctc, makemytrip etc. This problem started from 21th nov 2017 and i have contacted customer care atleast 20 times since then, everytime they tell me that the complaint has been logged and will be resolved by such and such date and time and i never get any response. This is really frustrating as i am unable to do online banking at the moment and this is impacting my work big time. My number is [protected], please resolve immediately. Rgds, shailesh

                                        I have tried to recharge my airtel no with rs.448 through my airtel app on 20th november, monday, 2017. I experienced that the online recharge service and airtel payment bank services are very poor quality. I have faced a high level of mental stress as my money has deducted and recharge not done. I don't have any option then to wait for the refund of my money.
                                        I have mailed my query to different authorities of airtel but there is no any action taken by the higher authority of airtel. I would personally suggest to everyone, to not avail the online recharge facility with my airtel app and airtel payment bank.

                                        My request is for a refund of my money as soon as possible.
