              Airtel secure is just another way airtel is scamming its users. I filed a claim for screen damage when it accidentally fell from my hands. They rejected the claim on the basis that this was due to improper handling on my part. Now who decides what's accidental and what's not? The phone "accidentally" fell from my hands. I didn't throw it! Nowhere in their terms and conditions do they even slightly elaborate on what they mean by accidental. Stop scamming your users airtel! Instead focus on providing a better experience for your customers.

              Their Terms and Conditions states the following -
              "Accidental Damage means Physical or Liquid damage to the Insured Product due to drop or collision of the Insured Product or any object falling on the Insured Product, caused due to accidental external means. It is that damage which occurs due to external causes that are not under the users direct control".

              They mention if the Insured Product drops due to external causes that are not under the users direct control then it is Accidental Damage. Well, gravity is the external cause which is not under my direct control. I am not GOD.

                This is in reference to my complain regarding the request for disconnection of broadband services. Complain no[protected].

                Highly dissatisfied with the executives in airtel customer care department.

                Later in september i tired to apply for disconnection of my broadband connection. Listening to this your executives tried to avoid the conversation and disconnected the call twice.
                On 4oct i requested for disconnection, dissatisfied with the speed and low data pack.

                After discussion with one of your executive, he offered 1 month grace time which will be of no charge. He also mentioned that this will be for 1 month and post that bill will be 450 approx (After discounted rates) for 90 gb.

                After a day or two, one of your executive confirmed that he has activated 1 month extension, to which i agreed on call.

                Today, the executive whom i spoke to regarding the status of my request, mentioned that the broadband connection has been discontinued. She also mentioned that one of your executive tried reaching us but number was not reachable so processed the request.

                I don't understand, if my number is not reachable isn't it your responsibility to just intimate us regarding this.

                Highly disappointed with her behavior. Rather than being polite and resolving my issue she was very rude.

                Request you to look into this matter as early as possible.

                  Most of the times my contacts are complaining that my phone is not reachable and switched off.. Even our family members calls when i am at home it says same not reachable or switched off.. When i call customer service to raise a complaint they don't even bother and simply disconnecting the call about the issue..2nd issue.. I have recharged for 399 unlimited voice and data offer during the offer but then i realized money is deducted for every call... When i contacted customer service asking for floor supervisor they will simply keep on mute or disconnecting the call... Worst service i have ever seen... They are looting people money like anything.. If jio wouldn't have come they still would have looked people money in data side like anything

                        Hi,
                        I don't want to use airtel services anymore now. I have been facing airtel slow browsing speed issue, but not permanent solution. I was committed to provide 16 mbps speed but very rarely getting 4 mbpts even sometime 2 mbps. And my bill was generated as 4700/- approx. I am being forced to pay full amount. Why so! I should be getting waive off

                          Respected sir/ madam,
                          We are airtel family, on nov 3' 2017 i recharged for rs. 399 unlimited free calls and 1gb/day valid for 70 days. On nov 11' 2017 instead of recharging my husband's number i recharged my own number for rs. 448 then after a second i called airtel customer care and i said i recharged week before but mistake had happen kindly recharge my husband's account with rs. 449 or refund it. I lost almost rs.900 for that they simply said we cant do anything from our side and i requested them to do this favour that i am asking my own amount and i am not asking any offer from you but no response from them. No humanity

                            My airtel payments account is linked to mobile number [protected]. On 17 sep 17, i recharged another airtel number [protected] for rs 247/- paying through my airtel payments bank account. However, the amount was deducted thrice from my account yhrough three successive transactions as per the details below.
                            First transaction on 17 sep 17 at 08:31 pm for amount rs 247.00 against transaction id [protected].
                            Second transaction on 17 sep 17 at 08:41 pm for amount rs 247.00 against transaction id [protected].
                            Third transaction on 17 sep 17 at 08:47 pm for amount rs 247.00 against transaction id [protected].
                            I have been making requests to the grievance officer (Gro) of airtel payments bank since then. Despite repeated attempts made by me, i have neither got the excess amount reimbursed nor the beneficiary number got the additional recharge. The issue is not about the amount but about ethics. I hope justice prevails and the excess charged amount gets back into my account.

                              That is serious problem for us. Our area located at the city khalilabad near by 5 km but network signal are bad and always a call dropping, only 2g network is working but it is not giving satisfaction.
                              3g and 4g network are not available so we are unable to use internet
                              If company will not taken any action we are able to port out from airtel to ohter company

                                We have received invoice for the period 05/09/2017 to 04/10/2017 on 11/11/2017 for rs. 1242.57 due on 15/11/2017 in which i have been charged rs. 651.99 for 212.24 mb, which i fail to understand.

                                I would like to draw your attention to the attached screenshots from myairtel application, which states that still i have 48.5 gb o[censored]nused data at my disposal, which has been carried forward to next month and is available for my use.

                                Kindly confirm whether myairtel app is not authentic or is giving misleading information to customers then, it should be closed / banned because trusting the same, i have used internet and for which i have been charged rs 651.99. This is absolutely fraud.

                                Also, still i am getting messages from airtel that your data has been carried forward to next month and you can use the same

                                You should not commit what you can not give.

                                      Respected all,

                                      I have approached airtel service centre 3 g zone (Invoice copy has been attached for kind info please) for following activities:-
                                      1) to port airtel pre paid number [protected] from west bengal circle to kolkata circle of same network operator and
                                      2) to have 4 g sim for the same number i. E [protected].

                                      For this fee was charged as well.

                                      Now my network services has been disconnected and it has been more than 24 hours, network service has not been activated in my new 4g sim.

                                      I contacted call centre but they are not registering my complain. Kindly help.

                                      Sms received for sim porting has been attached also.

                                      Regards

                                        I tried to contact their compalint no 121, [protected]. But there is no provision for this complaint nor non of their executives could be contacted.

                                        Change the same immeidately, as the sim has not been used by me, air tel shall be responsible for all types of misuse.
