    I received a message stating that videopindw service has been activated @ rs. 30 for 7 day (S)... How come you deduct amount for activating a service which i never asked for and most importantly i don't have such a feature in my mobile to use that damn service... I have been your customer for quite a long period of time and this makes me feel like i'm gonna quit airtel...

          I am using airtel 4g prepaid sim in a airtel 4g datacard. I have recharged for 56 gb data/ 28 days. I didn't have any issues for the initial few days. Afterwards it always connected to 2g network and data loading was dead slow. Each day i have call the customer care rep and they won't resolve the issue. They transfer it to senior excutive and they will say as i have used the full 2gb data for the previous day, it is not activated for the next day. They told me they will activate, and it will be connected to mostly 3g afterwards and this happens like four or five times. It was happened again and again. Ultimately today they said i have used the 2 gb data for day, though it was connected to only 2g network for the whole day.

          It seems they cheating people technically. Because i don't understand why it is not connected to 3g or 4g and how they could activate from their side, if they are not blocking my data usage.
          Kindly resolve this issue otherwise post this on every social media and if possible i will file a complaint against this.

              Hi,

              It has been really sad to observe the worst ever services from airtel. I bought an airtel secure plan in the month of sep'17.

              I never have been careless in my handling of the phone, you can check the condition of the phone. It is still has same new finish even after using it for a year and half. However, i was never aware that slipping of phone while driving as to be some specific occasion until i heard that my claim has been rejected due to i was driving and phone slipped from my pocket because of an small accident which i met while driving and i slipped due to y carelessness. What a rubbish statement ever...

              May i request you to look into concern as after 25 days of rigorous follow up i could register my claim, i have been told that claim is rejected. I have not taken this secure services from insurance provider and i dont want to hear their lame excuses. I am going to proceed with legal option if not taken my request seriously.

              Hoping to hearing from you soon.

              Nitin

                I have opted for airtel broadband service. I paid ₹6018/- online after confirming from them the service availability in my area. After a delay of 4days now they are telling that it is not possible to provide the connection. At the time of taking my payment, every person told that the service is available. This is worst kind of service and i have been taken for a ride. I am a retired officer and i can't go anywhere outside. Now no one is caring to answer my calls. This is the very worst service i have ever seen in my life.

                  "dear mr. Mussarrat ali,

                  This is in reference to your email requesting refund of security deposit on your mobile numbers [protected] and [protected].

                  Subsequent to our discussion on [protected], we regret to inform you that we are unable to trace the details of the payment of the security deposit on both your numbers. Hence, we are unable to process the request for refund.

                  Further, we request you to write us back with the scanned copy of the receipt if any, so that we can check and address your issue accordingly.

                  Thanks for reaching out to us.

                  Delighted to assist you.

                    One of my airtel no has 3600 credit limit and my monthly bill is around 100 rs. I had not pay bill since last 5 month due to smaller vlaue now i am try to pay bill.

                    In these 5 months they had charge 3 time late payment charge and after call on 198 no (26th oct 2017) they are committed to waive up all late payment charge with in 48 hours. I had wait for 4 days but it has not done. On 1st nov 2017 they had told me that i am given request for waive up your late payment charge and committed now it will waive up in next 24 hours.

                    On 2nd nov 2017 he was called to 198 no they are refused to waive up and told me these all amount he must pay than and than your no will start and keep me on hold for around 10 min after that call has been disconnected..

                    But surprizing think is that when i call today (3rd nov 2017) they answered that as of now not any complain or request was given to them for waiver of late payment charge,

                    I am suffuring from last 15 my no is also block from them.

                    My problem is not waive up my money but there answer which are change day by day.

                    From there late response i will pay additional 100 late payment fees for current month bill which are renew yesterday (02nd nov 2017).

                    My no is [protected]

                            Hi
                            On 21 10 2017 inr 24100 debited from my bank account through phishing activities of my debit card where scammers stole my debit card details online. My bank account statement shows that my amount credited to airtel money. Also airtel mobile no from delhi location used in this activity they are [protected] and [protected].

                            Our question is how airtel denied they are not received any amount from my debit card and also how airtel issue no to scammers to do such activities
                            We want clear probe in this matter and if airtel found dead guilty we want compensation as well
                            Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                            Today morning onwards someone is continuously calling from [protected] and not speaking. If I try to call back the number is not going through.
                            Sir i bought a 4g sim and i m using 4g phone but when i get recharged with net balance, i m getting 4g signal for 1min then it changing to 3g signal while using internet, any solution for this problem ?
                            I was in an auto and the phone was in my pant. Unknowingly phone flipped outside my pocket because of a push.
                            The airtel network of this area is automatically connected and the network gets vanishes most of the times. During Internet connection the network goes up mostly.
                            Hi gud eveving my phone was lost block the sim cart please k

                              Dear team,

                              Actually i had a lot of trust in airtel service from last 5 years, but yesterday i came to knew that it was fake.

                              When i had some issue regarding the sim, i went to the nearest airtel service center (Sahakarnagar bangalore-92) at the token number t236.

                              The representative was very worst in providing the service. He is not telling what to do, what needs to be done and no one could help me on it. Sitting infront of him for almost 1hr is just a waste of my time. He was just doing his own work without helping me.

                              If airtel peoples cant provide a proper service then what is the use of being fastest network provider in india, nobody cares u unless you provide us the best service.

                              ...

                                  I had tried to load my airtel money wallet ([protected]) with 5000 rupees using the my airtel application on 1st nov 2017and the transaction had failed. I had closed the application.

                                  Later received a message stating transaction failed and retry link to make the transaction. Upon clicking the link, my airtel application navigated to payment method to make payment for failed transaction amount of 5000.

                                  The payment was successful and the airtel money wallet was not loaded, instead my number was recharged for 5000 rupees incorrectly.

                                  Kindly investigate this issue and refund my money to wallet or credit card.

                                  Attached the transaction message screen print and i'd proof for your reference

                                      Website: Airtel.in

                                      Mobile data was deactivated from my number after changing a plan. I called and raised a complaint on Oct 24th but the request was closed in a couple of days without resolution. I have been calling customer care daily since then and I get a standard response: wait for 24 hours, backend team is working on it. Although my account has more than 13GB of data, still I can’t use the services.

                                      In this day and age, it is very inconvenient not to have Internet. The grievance is about their customer care which gives people false promises and is totally incapable of solving an issue.

                                      I also decided to port to another vendor and generated a porting code; even the risk of losing customers doesn’t bother them it seems. All this while I would be charged for a plan which has data but I wouldn’t be actually using anything.

                                      If anyone know about any appellate authority for Airtel, please let me know.

                                        I have lodged so many complaints to customer care about the network issue and call drop but they never took it seriously and problem is still the same.. Even getting worst. They have gave me free data free calling but because of their # service.. I am not able to use anything.

                                        Earlier airtel was one of the best network but now its really ghatiya. See the screenshot.. Network is showing gprs.

                                        I will never ever recommend airtel.
