      Dear sir/madam,

      As discussed over telephone with akanksha madam, i have not received any information about salary hold details by my reporting managers. Hope they have taken it as personally. I have taken my salary slips and my personal documents only. After resignation i noticed that no one is done exit interview and for courtesy also no one asked me why i am resigned. Many things are there but i don’t want to discuss because i was exit and boss always right and boss is never wrong concept in corporate. After resignation i got videocon offer with 4.5laks they informed me to join as early as possible so i have requested for notice period wave off to zsm, zbm and as well as akanksha madam hr but no one helped me in this.. Even hr can guide me as i am having leaves of 46 can be adjusted but i don’t no why you have not guided instead of that guided me to ask to your reporting bosses.

      I joined airtel as a zonal channel coordinator for finance department from aug’2013 to december’2013 i got an opportunity in hdfc bank ltd from december'13 to till april’14 due to my mother got hospitalized came back to gulbarga to take care my ailing mother. Considering my performance in zonal channel coordinator again given opportunity as zonal marcom from april’2014 to may’2015 after that considering my performance in zonal channel coordinator and in marcom again airtel given company has been given opportunity as sales manager for jewargi thehsil 11th may’2015 to 8th march’2017 6 months worked as mini spoke ev authorizer morning as tsm and in evening as mini spoke ev authorizer till late night 12pm, total having 3 years 2 months (38months) during these period check my performance hope you are having each and every data

      I have joined with huge problem rdd module planning was going to implement and mini spoke ev authorizer morning as tsm and in evening as mini spoke ev authorizer till late night 12pm. Many time i have been worked till late night 12 during these period khasim is handling urban jewargi where mini spoke is located but zsm not supported me to do mini spoke ev authorizer can be done to khasim but not done my name is given i am a new guy into this area with huge problems, during this time i have to source the distributors maintain the market with van and i have to do ev authorizing till late night 3times i have been saved by accident during late night travelling to my home town. For more than 4 days i have been in minis poke only because that time rs appa communication is not ready to support us daily we are getting more than 500 to 700 forms but not providing in systematic manner for that i have been with all the team members for 4days completed the form submission process for mini spoke vendor got received the payment, distributors vendor got received the payment, fse vendor got received the payment, data entry boy vendor got received the payment, retailer vendor got received the payment but company employee not received single penny from the company working since from morning 9:30 to late night 12 its almost 15 hours during my wife pregnancy i rendered my service to company for betterment of company buy my zsm said in every co-ncall that you have not done anything everything is done by retailers on that day only i have to resign from the company but as i am poor guy need basis i have to work for my bread and butter till last month i have worked.

      Boss is never wrong and boss is always right but holding of employee salary more than enough time is leading to harassment to employee during employment and after resignation holding salary and other benefits. I always blessed to airtel i am not a cunning fellow i am a poor guy, this is very sad to inform you that. You people made me to upload all the documents, because as per process after exit raising, exit interview need to be done. Small to small company doing it without fail, but in my case and in our company no one done it and for courtesy also not asked me as single question why i am resigned.

        I ported my sim to airtel and it got activated on 14 nov. I am not able to recharge my phone and so i am not able to make any outgoing calls or access data network. I visited the airte store and those people are not responding well they told me they are unable to do anything and i should wait for the mail. It has been one whole day and is creating lots of issue for me in day to day life. I am not even able to reach the customer care. I have dropped mail 2-3 time from 14 nov, and haven’t got a single response. Its very frustrating for me. Kindly look into it asap

          Hi,

          I ported from Vodafone to Airtel. My number was supposed to be activated by 11/11/2017 23:30. I registered a complaint several times with customer care as well as the Airtel Store. Each time i call in, they ask me to wait for 24 hours and it has been 4 days. I am unable to use 4 G services on my phone ( Redmi Note 4, 4 G enabled). Please resolve the issue by tomorrow morning or stop the number and refund my security money.I have spoken to all the departments.

          Regards,
          Vikram Chakraborty

            I, sunita saxena has a postpaid no.-[protected]. I had cleared all my bills till aug. 2017. After that, due to high bills, i had asked my nearest airtel store to convert my sim from postpaid to prepaid. They told me to wait for return call from airtel. But nobody called and when i went back to airtel store, no one listened to my request. Then i complained on airtel website but there was no response. I have been requesting since 2 months but no one has listened. Now they have sent a bill of rs. 2729 though you have already stopped incoming and outgoing services on my no. Since 24th oct 2017. I would like airtel to waive my bill amount and convert our sim to prepaid.

                On the 12th on dec (2017) airtel stopped service to my sim for no apparent reason. When i visited airtel office at 8th mile t dasarahalli bangalore, i was asked if i have adhaar card. I informed my adhaar card has not arrived yet and no number yet. Also it was not mandatory (Yet) to update adhaar. Rep goes on to state i need to submit address and id proof. I do that and without any explanation whatsoever rep goes on give ma a new sim card pack. Says i need to pay rs25. Says it is because duplicate sim had to be issued.
                My service was deactivated for no reason, and i had to pay for it.
                I was told sim will be activated in 5 hours. But took a day or more. After that i am unable to send smss.
                All airtel customer care numbers 121, 198, [protected] etc lead to same ivr with no way to get to speak to a person to sort this out. Customer care for pre paid customers is non existent. I want to sue airtel!

                    As per the income tax rules we are deducting tds from the monthly usage amount and paying the net amount to airtel,. Till date there is no pending amount. For the last 7 quarters we have paid tds amount of rs.44043 /= which they have not updated in their records. Even after submission of tds certificates airtel is debarring our lines regularly. We are suffering and struggling for nearly 2 years. No dutiful, sincere & responsible person is with airtel to redress our grievance. There are 100s of mails, telereminders, innumerable complaints

                    We have exhausted our patience. We need not suffer for their inefficiency and mismanagement. Please redress our grievances

                        Hi sir/madam,

                        I am unable to make std call from karnataka since a month and it’s not installed even today. I have raised many tickets but nothing has been addressed so far. Whenever i call an std mobile number with +91, i get a voice saying "std and isd facilities are not available on your mobile number, please contact...".

                        But it works in the below scenarios:

                        1. Outside karnataka [andhra pradesh] with +91
                        2. Inside karnataka but without +91.

                        I have tried all the possible ways as below advised by airtel cc, but no luck. And just leftover with hands full of tickets, that are on hold, active.

                        1. Restarting phone
                        2. Enabling std/isd – cc verified it as well
                        3. Sim replacement
                        4. Plan change
                        5. Tried the sim in another mobile.

                        I remember all this happened when i have tried to change the plan from mobile app and could see still the freebies and booster change are still in progress since october 2017 in the transaction history section of the app.

                        Please help me advising on this issue and try to resolve it asap. Am very tired following up this issue with cc and fed up updating every

                              I port my airtel prepaid number from andhra pradesh circle to delhi circle. The porting is done on 14 november 2017 but i cannot recharge my number. I visited one airtel store here in delhi and still they are not resolving. They are telling there is some system errror and they have put up a complaint.
                              Now i can only receive phone call, cannot make outgoing calls due to low balance.
                              Kindly look into the matter asap

                                    I port my number vodafone to airtel services last month.
                                    While porting number executive commited for 349/- plan but the plan applied is 399/-, i have screenshot of conversation which i m attaching for your reference, the number from which i received call is [protected].
                                    I went to airtel gallery for solution but they said 349/- is postpaid plan, there is no such prepaid plan available in prepaid,
                                    That means i received fake information from airtel team, and now the number is not reachable, why should i pay 399/- if i choose plan 349/-
                                    I sent mail to airtel [protected]@in. Airtel.com email id but no reply received yet

                                    I am seriously irritated with the airtel network.

                                      Hi, this is to inform you that the customer care executive are not providing proper information as when i asked about why my plan has not expired and i was not knowing about this so i recharged with a new plan, may be the info was correct but the way she handled my call was not correct, she was saying ("aapne kyun kiya, yahape call kyun nahi kiya") and said m transferring your call to the supervisor, this is not the way to talk with your customer, i am your customer from the last 2-3 years, and only because of your service and the trust i have on airtel. But the way these people handle your customers, it ll not retain them. Instead, it's a reason for port out. And i do have the call recordings, hope you will look into this.
