Last one week i fight with bellow teams

2.[protected]@airtel.com

3. [protected]@in. Airtel.com

4. 121

    Mysel[censored]sing airtel service from last one years with relationship number # [protected] and landline number # [protected]. I am facing issue with internet speed which provided by airtel. Due to inconsistency in network speed my vpn disconnect frequently and struggling to do my office work. Initially i thought issue with internet speed because i am using 8 mbps speed, hence i upgraded from 8 mbps to 24 mbps speed, however still i am facing issue. I logged several complaints but still my issue not fixed. Really i am very disappointed with airtel service.
    I am planning to use social media to tell about worst service provided by airtel if my issue not fix on priority.

    Very worst signal I have in both my work place and my home town.

    Tired of this Airtel network nowadays... Please don't advertise your network for the fastest network..

    My native code: 632602
    My workplace code: 603103

    Resolve this asap... If not no other option left of MNP.

      I added rs-475 in airtel app wallet (Mobile no-[protected]) 1 month ago. From that time onwards, whenever i try to use my wallet to do any transactions, it refuses by saying "no debit transactions are allowed as it has been blocked".

      After registering complaint no-824880, they asked for aadhar & i provided that too. But, still nothing is changed.

      Please sovle this as this had become headache for me & airtel customer cares are not there for helping us by call.

          I have been using my airtel number for the past 12 years and since a month or more, i cannot send text messages and this is extremely irritating and may cause a problem in case of an emergency. Kindly look into this asap as sms is a basic necessity for an individual. I have tried multiple settings on my phone and still it is the same. Service center executives have zero knowledge about anything. Airtel customer care is never reachable. Poor service high rates. Extremely dissatisfied and disappointed with airtel.

                cannot access *121# and says invalid number on 121

                Address: Bangalore, Karnataka, 560037

                I recently ported my airtel prepaid no. [protected] from mp-cg circle to airtel karnataka circle.

                Post porting, i am able to make outgoing calls from the airtel number. However, i am unable to receive any calls. Whenever someone tries to call me, they get a message - "number is invalid". This is really disappointing. Airtel doesn't seem to have any immediate solution.

                Also i get error code 536 on dialing *121#...

                Sir,
                I am a premium user of airtel prepaid sim (Ph. No :[protected]). Many airtel users known to me in my family and friends circle, everyone of them are able to avail the 399 offer (Rs 399, 70 gb for 70 days).
                Even when this plan came before for 84 gb i couldn't avail it and when i contacted the customer care, they told this offer is available to only select users, but why not me?? I am also paying a hefty amount for my sim and also availing the rate cutter plans, but it's becoming non economical for me and it's a spendthrift.
                Other sim carriers are offering well cheap plans for the cost and is available for everyone.
                Please make sure i am getting this offer or else i would like to have a conversation with the senior officials or else there is no other way than porting my number.

                      Soon after i send an sms l get a balance statement which is usually correct. But immediately if i check my main balance it will show that twice that amount is deducted. Eg.: i sent an sms outside the country at 16.48hrs. And the balance showed as rs. 115/- from the previous amount of 120/- which was correct. Immediately i checked my main balance and it shows as rs 110/-. When i call the office they are denying it & following it by a standard response saying thanks for contacting airtel. Your issue is successfully resolved when it's not. This is a regular occurrence with airtel.

                        I have got the internet mifi connect couple of month back. The dealer gave me with the offer of 3+1 month offer and i paid the amount in advance i. E. 4995 inr and they told me that after 4 month it will get automatically renewed. But now they are charging 4500 inr per month from me. This is sheer loot with customers. I don't know from where i can complain about this.
                        One can't expect this kind of behavior from a company like airtel.

                        Can somebody help me in this.

                              I tried twice to recharge my airtel payments bank wallet of amount rs.1060 using canara bank debit card but the transactions were failed then i recharged using icici bank debit card and the transaction was successful. Unfortunately i've received a message from canara bank that 1060rs have been debited. So u have taken money from both the debit cards. Please initiate the refund process.

                                Hi consumer department,

                                I received a below sms from airtel,
                                Stateing that i need to udate my aadhar card with my existing prepaid airtel number once again. Its a 5yr old airtel prepaid number.

                                When i went to airtel gallery kalina. The airtel executive said, aadhar card can't be updated be as there is a name change on aadhar card. (Name changed due to marriage).

                                Then he is saying, "i[censored] convert it to post paid, then your aadhar card will be updated and after 3 mths you can convert it back to prepaid." but when i said i want to remain in prepaid itself. The executive said, as your aadhar is not updated, we will shut you airtel connection.

                                When i asked the airtel executive to mail me the respective procedure. He said, " ye mera kaam nahi hai, aap 198 par call karo. - then what is the use of airtel gallery.

                                Conclusion
                                We have all the required documents. Even we have marriage certificate.

                                Aadhar card number is same, thumb print is same, photo is same.

                                Government approved aadhar is not valid for them.

                                The main thing is my aadhar card is acceptable and valid, if i convert the same number in postpaid connection.

                                Incident date 1st nov 2017 - 2pm.

                                Wow...

                                  I'm ported my jio number [protected] to airtel 1 month ago i can't use my number.. I can't verify my number by calling on 59059.
                                  For 30 days my sim was useless..
                                  I don't get any support, satisfaction from this company..
                                  Too much problems faced because of this.
                                  I can't access any transaction by mobile banking, etc.
                                  They don't care about customer.
                                  I have called too many times, visited airtel showroom.. Till now i can't use any services by them, signal is visible on my mobile. Bt no use.

                                    Dear sir

                                    I have purchased airtel secure plan with monthly rental 79/- plus gst. As per their scheme it would be the 21 days process to deliver handset with repair.

                                    But i claimed for airtel secure on dated 19 sep 2017. After that all process i got my handset on dated 17 oct 2017. Without proper repair. Complaint receipt is attached herewith.

                                    Then again i have submitted my handset on 24 oc 2017, to repair. On saturday dated 28 oct 2017 i got a mail from airtel, that my hand set is repaired & it would be deliver within 72 hrs.

                                    Now their team is continuously delaying the process its almost consume 43 days that is one & half month.
                                    Is this exceptionable from a reputed co. To give a wrong commitment to their costumer.

                                    The mails & complaint receipt is also attached herewith for your reference. When i called to one assist they decline me we can not help you in a proper way as you have purchase this plan from airtel. & airtel executive said they do not have a proper information their executive will call me.

                                    But i do not have any update from saturday, its already consumed 72 hrs from their commitment. No one is helping me to provide a proper update. Or any tracking number.

                                    Kindly you are requested to please look into this, & help me asap.

                                    Thanks
