My airtel no [protected] using from 14 years.
My credit score is highest & excellent 881 out of 900.
Am honest taxpayer from last 35+ years.
When i tried to buy iphone 7 message flashed was sorry ur loan is not approved.
I wanted to know when u can't offer the scheme to the excellent credit score, then this offer is for cheaters defaulters or non tax payers. Or it's sheer blunder played by airtel company with false scheme offer for publicity.

This Airtel iPhone offer must be scrutinized properly & book the company for making false offers by manipulating customer's sentiments.

      Today am recharged rs 999/... But still it was zero when am checked my balance. 999 offer-local +std+roaming was free, daily 100 sms, 60 gb 3g data for 90 days validity.. This offer is not effectively working my number. Airtel company cheated me.
      Kindly give my money in my account or give this offer properly..
      Yours faithfully

        Dear sir,
        I am airtel dth subscriber, my dth id is [protected].
        My stb was not working properly for last one month & has stopped working on last saturday. I've logged complaint regarding this. Airtel service engineer came & replaced the stb with new one. He charged me for rs.400 and told that the stb will start working within an hour. But still my stb is not working, then i've logged complaint again. The service engg called me up & asked very rudely "why are you complaining again & again" started misbehaving with me. I told him "bro please you don't be angry, i'll manage it with another engineer. I am really unable to understand that"i am your customer or you are my customer"
        I am really very frustrated with airtel service.
        The complaint no [protected] is not responding ever.

            This is with reference to the airtel landline connection no.[protected] and broadband connection with the same number. I informed airtel that i am shifting my house and they need to setup the connection at the new house which is around 0.75 km from the existing house on 24th oct 2017. Then after shifting to the new house, i have been calling them and they say different stories each time: that their technician will fix the line; that it is not possible to give new connection and stay in the old house itself (Very pathetic that they tell to stay in the old house itself for broadband connection), that they have to get permission to get new ports and will fix it within 3 days, etc etc... Many many stories. They when i started calling continuously they escalated the call to the escalation department stating that the line will be fixed 100% sure by 6th nov 2017 and then i called them 6th evening and they said that i will get a call back by same day before 7.30 pm regarding the status. Then again i called today 7th nov 10 am and they said that i will get a call back by 11.30 am today definitely and as usual its a fake promise and i have not received a call back. Its been days i have been calling them to know the exact picture of the complaint and nobody bothers to give me a proper explanation. I have been on call, on hold for more than 20 mins daily which is really embarassing and disturbing. Why cant they call up and let me know the status. Act broadband follows up daily to install new connection from 5rd nov 17, but i am just waiting for a proper reply from airtel. They say they will fix up or call back and they are just dragging the issue. I use airtel landline, broadband, digital tv and postpaid mobile connection from airtel. Cant they do some justice seeing how many times i have called and how many times they have made false promise of call back. They why do they have to have the customer care cell at all if they dont care about customer issues.

                      Dear officer,

                      If you are not the right contact please provide me the contact detail of senior manager of customer services.

                      I have been associated with airtel since 2005 and so far never had any issues.in the last one month i have undergone lot of pain in getting the right support in having my network issue/ data speed issue fixed at my home location. Everybody who i spoke to starting from customer care, nodal team and airtel network team only gave false assurance and fooled me around. I had raised at least 4 service requests and since 22 oct and even today the issues is not resolved.

                      To disgust me further, the engineer who visited the site and found the lack of network coverage and confirmed the same to me provides a completely opposite report to his internal teams that there is no issue and today the team calls me saying they found no issue.

                      Now, i need to understand what is airtel trying to achieve by fooling around its customers who are already paying for teh services and being deprived of it and on top of it airtel closing issues saying there is none.

                      Airtel nodal team updated they are the last level of escalation and never updated me the status through a call back even once though every time there was a false assurance.

                      I look forward to you to have my issue resolved at the earliest.

                      Regards
                      Manoj

                              When tomorrow I visited our local Airtel Service centre beside NH 34, Malda, opposite of Meghdut Lodge for linking [protected] with aadhar, they asked money for serving me. This is an offence according to Central govt. and Supreme Court. Aadhar linking should be free of cost. But they compelled the customers to pay them for various free services.

                                  Dear service team,

                                  Hi, this is mr. Venkatchalam from trichy having air tel prepaid connection no. 0091-[[protected]]. I lost my mobile yesterday night, hence, i want to request the airtel team to please block this sim card asap.

                                  Please guide me through the process of issuing a duplicate prepaid sim card (If possible, with the balance amount from my previous sim). I expect a quick solution to my problem with further knowledge of the procedure.

                                  Regards
                                  Venkatchalam

                                    I recharged my airtel number with rs. 495 on 5th nov, 2017 to avail the 70 day offer o[censored]nlimited calls, 100 text messages/day and 1gb data/day.

                                    I am able to make calls and text messages as per the plan but the data plan does not seem to be working. All my mobile settings allow the data usage.
                                    Additionally, the my airtel app for the number also shows 0 mb remaining.in the transaction history section, no transaction has been shown and no plans are shown to be active.

                                        It's extremely urgent for me right now. I have activated rs 3999 irs plan. I couldn't make even a single call. I called customer service they said i have the package active but i have low balance and told me to recharge for 200 rs. I did. After that i started making calls after few mins call dropped because they charged from main balance. I called airtel again, now they said you have to wait till you get a message that rental charge rs 99 is charged to your account and they can't re imburse the 200 rs and told me to recharge again and to wait for the message. I recharged again and waited for the message. I made call after the message and the amount was still going from main balance. This is terrible. I came to usa just relying on my airtel number now they completely ditched me. Please help me asap
