Dear sir,
I am navdeep singh from punjab using the airtel mobile number [[protected]] since last 1 and half years and i want to port out my airtel no. But whenever i am sending sms (Port [[protected]] to 1900) for generating upc (Unique porting code) they are not providing me the upc code, after that many times i. E more than hundreds of times i called up customer care and did not get any response they are just receiving the call asking the name and saying pls stay on line i we r checking and keeping the call on hold for sometime and after that disconnecting the call.. I dont know what to do now?? Any one can tell me if there is any other way to get the upc code please???, being harrashed from this i think airtel is very worst in this market and a no.1 cheater deducting money from customers fraudly, i am not ready for any kind counciling. All that i need is just a upc code. If i dont get that in a day or 2. I am going to throw this sim and will go for a new sim and also i will tell whoever using airtel in my home (9 people) and all my friends circle to stop using airtel and throw it in dustbin by breaking airtel sims. And move to bsnl.

Hence, it 's my request to trai and india governments that please take some necessary actions against those operators who is not sending porting code to their customers after deducting money for the same sms and for that they must be charged a heavy penality so that they can be taught a lession, if any kind of informations required from me please do contact me on [[protected]].

      Sir,

      I have a plan of 49 rs per month with 2 gb data per month and 180 minutes in total.
      Last month i did not use the total quantity of data and talktime still airtel has charged me extra amount of rupees.

      I called them but they told that there are other usage. Means i do not under stand i have not used it for any other purpose still they charged me with extra money.

      Airtel wants me to pay a bill of 696.54 rs. Airtel has incurred charges of 576.3 under other usages. But i don't what are the other usage neither they are telling me as i have not used for anyother purpose.
      Usage over package is "zero: means i have not used extra data nor extra talktime than why they have charged me more and that too 576.3 rs.

      Waiting for my issue to be addressed and solved.

          I have taken cug plan @ rs 499 + tax unlimited calling local n std calling per month with 10 gb data free per month for next six month, but airtel sending me excess bill amount of rs. Bill of rs 836 it is suppose to be rs. 588 inclusive of all taxes.
          Even after 3rd time calling to customer care it is not rectified yet.

          This is completely harassment...

          Below are the message i received from airtel.

          (Bill of rs 836, dated 21-nov-17 for airtel no. [protected] is due on 09-dec-17. Pay ontime to avoid late fee. To pay via app using cards/netbanking/airtel payments bank, click http://www.airtel.in/5/coll or visit an airtel store. Ignore if paid.)

            I was using airtel data card till october and requested for cancellation of connection in airtel store near srinivasa nagaga branch, bengaluru, which they refuse to take it and asked me to place via customer care. I had requested for cancellation on 18th oct but as of today till 05/12/17 they keep on generating the bills and every time i called customer care service they keep on promising that the bill will be waived off, but nothing is happening. I had called them more than 8 times to resolve the issue every time they keep on saying issue will be solved soon but no solution. They are sending the recovery agents to my house for forcefully collect the money, even though i explained them the exact issue to them they are not caring about it and they always says they are not bothered about all these they are meant to collect the money. I request the concern person to please resolve the issue for me.

              Website: www.airtel.in/recharge-online

              Airtel is not providing the services as per description of the plan.
              I was going to recharge of rs. 509 and the recharge description is
              "unlimited all local, std and roaming outgoing calls, 100 sms/day and 1gb 3g/4g data/day. For non commercial use only."
              (Reference: https://www.airtel.in/recharge-online)

              And no t&c is mentioned there.

              But their executives on airtel store are saying there are so many capping in this recharge like
              1. User will get internet like 500mb in day + 500mb in night
              2. User will get only 200 mins daily for calling (Not unlimited)

              I am not able to understand why airtel is not mentioning what they are actually providing.
              It looks like openly cheating with the customer.

                I live in a gated community and our family uses 7 airtel connections and most o[censored]s in our community use airtel as well. But for the past 2 months, the service has been terrible and i've been having a loss in my business which is mostly network oriented. It's been 2 months since i last used my internet while at home as there is no service at all. To pick up a call or make one, i have to rush down the roads to make one. There has been neglectable service problems earlier but now everyone is vexed. I finally got through to the customer support (On[protected] from the number [protected] and they filed a complaint (Ref. No c2gin[protected]) and then on the same day sent a message saying that the "temporary issue" has been solved while it hasn't been. I am typing this on the behalf of all the vexed airtel users in our community.

                          Dear sir my airtel payment bank id is [protected]. Please delete my airtel money and airtel payment bank accounts, and deactivate all my accounts.
                          I have not approached you for opening any account in my name. I would like to know airtel has opened an account without my permission.

                            Hi,

                            This is in regard of my bill in which you have charged me for sending 8 international sms which i have never sent.
                            I called at the customer care and the executive was so rude and she could not explain why you have charged. She said that this will happen every time you will use facetime which cannot be disabled if a person is using iphone.
                            I have been using vodafone since last 10years and iphone from past 2 years and this has never ever happened. First bill with airtel after porting and i got extra charges with my bill.
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              Hello,

                              I submitted my porting request on 27th nov 2017 from vodafone to airtel. It has been over 7 working days and vodafone has rightly switch off their services. Airtel has not yet activated my number in spite of the committed 7 days. Meenu arora from the escalations team has been very rude and denied filing an official complain in this regard. My number is dead and has severely impacted my business. Regret moving to airtel.
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                  From last 1.6 years, i have raised network compliant and still airtel team is keeping my complaint on hold.
                                  Their network engineers visits the home and recorded that no network coverage exist but still they are least bother about their customer..
                                  Also, in the end they will send one good mail on a happy note that sir your complaint is in progress and ticket will be closed from that mail as complaint will be catered in future may be in 2099.
                                  This is india's one of the main fastest network with 4g speed guarantee athough you can't use it as there are no signals but its fastest one.

                                    Dear ravi
                                    It is now very clear hat i was over charged wrongly by you for last so many months
                                    My present balance as per your sms to me is 6851.18.
                                    How rs 6450.68 became 6851.18 is beyond my comprehension?
                                    Subscription charges have wronly been deducted by you for the third connection which was handed over by me on 11 jun 2017 and i was continuously fleeced by your charging agencies till i raised the issue and your rep stated that i have three connections as per your records
                                    By looking at your attitude i feel like discontinuing my both connections also
                                    Pl tell me if i have one 99 plan and one additional 270/pm plan would you agree or not sine one base plan and one 270 per month should be alright with you
                                    Why did you make (99+270+270) into (270+270) rather than (90+270) plan?
                                    My mistake was that i paid you money in advance so that you kept deducting amount at your will and suddenly credited 561 rupees on 1 dec after i raised the issue with you.
                                    Please be gracious enough to accept your mistakes and your typical indian attitude towards sincere customers like me
                                    Please make my plan to (90+270) rather than charging 18 rupees a day for two connections as you would do for a customer having 90+270 plan

                                      I have bought corporate plans from airtel of rs. 99 but i wanted to change one number out of all to the plan of rs. 499.00 but you made a mistake and changed plan for all number from 99 to 499 and we were follwoign up with airtel on mail and through customer care but no solution is given and they also didnt send the invoice to us for past 2 months.

                                      Now they send the invoice for 2 month and asking us to pay the bill as per 499 plan and also our number have been deactivated.

                                      We are having problem because of this and we will not pay this amount as we have specifically mentioned on the mail that we only want to change plan for 1 number/

                                      Kindly look in this matter as this is not airtel standards.

                                        Airtel is trying to fool people by opening airtel money ac w/o their consent wen linking the number with aadhar. When i'm trying to reach them fr help regarding this it seems thr is no way to reach them (Tried all possible ivrs numbers). The height is that when i'm trying to send porting msg to 1900 it isn't even allowing to snd the msg -[protected]
