Recently i had ported in my teeno sim into airtel and then upgraded it from 3g to 4g. Nd recharged it with rs. 449 in order to have unlimited local and std calls and 1 gb data per day. But now any of those plan are not active. I can't make any call local or std. Nd even i am unable to reach any of your customer care. Your portal for speaking any executive officer is worst. Please do something that can be helpful to me.

    Dear sir/mam,

    I have been complaining about network issues inside and ouside of my home. But instead of resolving the issue airtel network team call me daily to check.

    Please suggest any solution to this persisting issue. We are not able to reach the members at home.

    #6, ashwathakatte street, chikkallasasndra, bangalore

    Do we have any signal enhancer for this issue.

    Regards rashmi

            Same issue happening with me even when am in cug plan.. I have sent all the detail to airtel team through mail id since 3 months i have been following up with my issue. Still issue is the same and when finally i got rid and decide to port, when i just sent a port msg, the relationship officer calls me and speaks. When i log issue that am facing no guy reverts as fast as relationship officer.. They wont be compensating any amount inspite they say that its charged as u used..
            I have attached some screenshots in that u can see how 4g challenge video is buffering and later it say retry. And horrible situation is that calls wont get connected & incoming also... Cant call error makes me like so angry... This network challenge as the best network in india. They wont be saying the tenure that when the problems get resolved.
            Airtel should challenge in reality of their network in live... Will they be???

              My name is shahbaz husain. I am a student, i am having some fake calls from theevs to stole my money from bank...

              Actually i created airtel payment bank's account by app yesterday, my account got block than i email to the customer services and post my concern to a complaint website (Which is doubtful) with my contact details, in order to re open my account. Today at 7:37 am. I got a call from [protected] he said "i am calling from airtel payments bank, i got your account is block, please varify your debit card number and expiry date so that we will further proceed it" i said -"sorry i cannot do the same because of security purposes", actually now i got to know that they were fake. 2 may be 3 times he insisted to provide information, while getting that he started abusing me. I said i will complaint to the cyber cell and all, he said "ukhad lo jo ukhadna hai un ch*yo se kuch nhi hota". And they ended up with me. After few minutes i received another call from [protected]. He was also from the same community and again ask my secure details like debit card number and all.. I said i know where are you from... And i have received another call before your call, he said ok give me that previous mobile number. I said no i have already complaint in cyber cell and i am going to do the same with you.. He started abusing me again and ended up with me.

                I purchased a "one day" international roaming pack for usa from airtel which allows for unlimited incoming calls and 50 mb data. It seemed ideal since it ensures connectivity as soon as we land there. But, there is no mention on when this one day pack gets activated. It turns out that the pack i purchased got activated (And deactivated) before i could even land there. There was no mention of this by sms or other means. The customer service - when i could finally reach them after hours of trying and punching through multiple options -
                Has been the most unhelpful and useless in this regard, not even able to tell me if the "one day" starts in the indian or us time zone. They simply keep parroting the 'it is for one day only sir' line.

                I request a refund of the amount i paid (Rs 649).

                            I recently ported my kerala jio prepaid to kerala airtel prepaid. Porting was done on 3rd november 22:15. Ever since porting i am totally unable to recharge my mobile number. Attempts through my airtel app (And payments bank), paytm, online, e-recharge all in vain. Complained with airtel customer care many times with no help at all. Each time "it will be resolved within 24 hours". I deeply regret moving to airtel. Unable to make calls, use internet. My mobile is now just an incoming call number. Work and personal wise affected big time. Airtel is one of the worst companies.

                            Went to airtel store again, it is like a loop. They've now sent another email. Same story, wait for 24 hours.

                            Update - For last 7 days daily the conversation is the same. Me calling up their customer care, they saying wait for 24 hours we have escalated this. In my view, Airtel is the worst company in the world. I am still unable to recharge my number and it is as good as useless as I can only receive calls.

                              I was using a airtel mobile number for more than 7 years in india (Bangalore). I traveled to ireland during 2016 and i could take a one year valid international roaming for one year. But after a year, the international roaming rates got changed and there was one couple of options of 699 rs for 1 day and around 5000 rs for a month validity. The outgoing call and sms was not working. My number got deactivated with reason no outgoing calls or sms for 90 days.
                              When i returned to india, i checked with airtel office (Near jayadeva, bangalore) and they said they could get back the number on a condition that it will be postpaid. I agreed for that. For eight days i visited the office 5 times and they simply said tomorrow or 2 days and on the eight day they told, it is a vanity number (Fancy number ending with 123) and i have to pay rs 7500 and one more request have to be logged which will take 2 more days. I was totally frustrated with the approach. They could have told me on the first day and i would have simply taken another number. No value for customer time.

                                  Sir, my resident address is gupta enclave, vikas nagar, new delhi-110058. I am facing the 4g and 3g network issue in my handset since 6 months. Its been mandatory for to set my network on 2g because whenever i set network on 3g or 4g it shows no network. Already i submitted lots of complaints regarding this issue but now i think i have to move on. There is no improvement in their network. I think airtel loose the match against jio.
