Nowadays i see frequent call drops in airtel network. It is happening even to my friends who are on airtel. When i call customer care i get a response saying that i need to reset my device or change sim etc. None of them understand the technical issue. They see that this issue is from a device. Why airtel is not taking care of customers and their network issues?

    I recharged with 678rs yesterday but it got disconnected today and my acc has 24 rs negative balance.i got sms for 3.5m hd validitybut it was just for 1 day i paid 678rs..
    My id is [protected]
    My data pack is on auto renewal. Plzz tell how to stop this service.
    Actually I recharged with unlimited call pack. But I couldn't make sufficient unlimited calls. I'm totally screwed up with the network. It's a kind of a bad activity. For being like these, you guys could have closed your network & sell Pani Puri in the street side.

      My number is [protected] since a network issue my recharge was done twice with 448 pack of 70 days that accounts to a sum of 896 but i got only 70 days validity instead of 140 days they are not providing any option of validity extension nor a refund this is unfair to take my money twice for same plan while other operators give an extension to the pack.

        Since my sim card is damaged, i had purchased a new sim for sim swapping in airtel store, bhavani on 18/11/2017. They had successfully submitted a request for sim swapping. But till date 22/11/2017 my new sim is not activated. When i approached the airtel store again and again for the same, they are saying that in backend it is delaying. How long to wait for sim activation?

          Hi i'm yeshwanth, earlier i was using vodafone network, in april i got a call from airtel executive, the plan sounded great so i ported by network to airtel, few months it was good no network issue & high speed internet everything was going well, suddenly after 3monts i had some network issues which i adjusted for a month but later it was very painful because i was not able to use my data also it was 32kbps/s only so i registered a complaint, and they said it will be sorted out in 4 to 5 working days, i waited and waited but no response so again i registered a complaint after a month still no response form airtel network team and they have been charging monthly rental charges from past 3 month without providing a me proper service, even though i have paid 2 months bill without any service form airtel, i decided not to pay from 3rd month since i'm not able to use data service call services, what's the point of paying the bill, now they have disconnected by calls and they want me to pay all the bills. Airtel network is looting customers money without giving proper service to the costumers.

                  I was told again and again by the company calls and messages to upgrade my 3g sim to 4g so i decided to do that and bought a new 4g sim on 18th november, 2017 by following the procedure mentioned and removed my old sim and it was disconnected but the new sim which was supposed to work in next 24 hours is still not working. It shows no signal and i am not able to receive calls or use it in any form. This is very troublesome. Please sort this out soon.

                    3) last saturday i visiting your same store for same issue, i explain my issue, &
                    I surprised without taking my any information like complaint no & mobile no they told your complaint is open and & our network team call you. Or call to customer care, i can't help you regarding this issue. Is it possible?

                    From 1st nov to till date my network is down. Form your end i am receiving the bill of rs. 450 approx, i am not ready to pay this bill, because i am not use it due to your network problem.

                      I rquested to migrate from airtel postpaid o prepaid on last saturday[protected], postpaid disconnected on the very next day but the prepaid isn't activated yet. When i contacted airtel store, customer care, appelatte team they said "sorry for inconvineance and we're working on it 24*7 but they can't resolved it till now. But the fact is their technolgy is getting ou dated. Airtel must learn that just a showcase app doesn't enough for satisfy thee customer needs. Last one i planned to switch to prepaid because of their consecutive failure in billing. But at the same i congrats airtel for their voice calling clarity

                        #airtel service is going to dogs!!

                        Last one week my incoming calls and internet were not working and the reason was i had requested for isd service to be enabled which deactivated the base plan... This is told by customer care executive.

                        Today i receive one month old bill in my email and to check when i call customer care was told it is sent by accident.

                        I am expecting more to come in the coming days and i am seriously looking forward to port my mobile / broadband and hotspot to vodafone and act cannot spend daily couple of hours with this type of service provider loosing mental peace.

                          Hi team,

                          I requested mnp from idea to airtel 25 days ago, my no converted to airtel but no signal. I went to airtel store in vizianagaram and vizag five times and they didn't explain the actual problem simply they changed the 4 times still, the issue is not yet resolved from the last 25 days. I asked them the same thing simply they were saying that there was a problem with the backend team and please wait until the issue is resolved.

                          Please take necessary action on airtel

                            Airtel changed my monthly plan on their own without any communication to me. As per them, they gave me waivers as i was a premium customer to them but then without any intimation they increased the rental. Now they are asking me to pay double the amount which used to come as the bill.

                            Following are the details of the plan month wise starting march, 2017

                            March - 1380
                            April - 1380
                            May - 1472
                            June - 1725
                            July - 1788
                            Aug - 1888
                            Sept - 2488
                            Oct - 2488

                            This month bill was generated with 3005 as my rental and i paid just 1500. When i called airtel customer care, they just said that they can waive off 500 and i will have to pay 972 more. I dont understand the reason behind that. Why would i pay the company without any reason.

                              Hi I have loaded 1000 on Airtel Payments Bank but I am not able to do any transaction on it. It gives the message Debit for this account is not allowed. I e mailed them several times but they haven't tried to reply back once. Worst customer experience in my whole life.

                                  My airtel prepaid number fails to receive important otp sms from banks and other establishments as a result of which i have been unable to carry out any phone based transactions.
                                  Bought a new phone on advice that the phone i was using might be faulty. But the problem remains the same.
                                  The card has also been tried on other phones, and the same problem persists.
                                  The service provider says sim is fine.
                                  Very frustrating. Its been months now.
                                  Please help urgently.

                                    This is 3rd time in a row that airtel release a cash back offer & don't credit it until we raise a complaint. When asked to post the call to upper management they always they have gone for a break. Why is it always we need to remind them about the cash back.. Nobody bothers until we call. So it's all a dummy plans they release

                                    Please make note of the complaint number raised to airtel payments bank - 1035672

                                      I have submitted documents for port out from idea postpaid to airtel postpaid.
                                      The port was succesful yesterday and the idea service was terminated. But the dealer haven't provided me a new airtel sim which he promised to deliver at my address by post. I suspect that sim was misplaced at their end. Interuption of service of this number was taking toll on my work contacts.
                                      Following are the details

                                      Mobile number :[protected]
                                      Port request submission date :13/11/2017
                                      Upc code : ia226585

                                      Provide me a solution to get my number (New sim) which was ported to airtel.

                                      Thanks
