      Hello,
      I am the consumer of airtel 4g data postpaid connection. I have been facing problem from last 4 months. Initially, i thought there will be minor problem with airtel so i ignored and tried to continue use the same connection. I have also observed data receiving speed is less than 1mbps. I had called airtel customer care and registered complaints about network issue on 25/08/2017. They logged complaint and was waiting for resolution but could not see completed but instead they put on hold saying network upgradation going on.
      I told them why are you charging from customer if your network upgradation is going on and network issue is still there. I again call them talk about the same. They gave assurance, it will resolve in week time and i still paid 2 months billing charges by their assurance. It could not resolved and i stop pay monthly billing for sept and oct-2017. I told them if i get the good network and service and will pay for future months not for the 2 months for which i haven't paid the bill.

      Data card details:
      Airtel: [protected]
      Data left in my account: 100gb+

      I urge to trai, please look into this matter, i am hoping there are more customers out there who are still paying the bill but not getting what they have committed for good service.

            Technician did a shoddy job of installing new modem at our premise.. No ticket was raised. Wrong mobile number... No internet inspite of chat on 28/10/2017. Very poor service. The technician ran away giving a wrong number misguiding the customer and getting the forced feedback from the customer and when contacted again said he cannot help. When contacted customer service they had a lady who did tried to correct the same.. Lack of technical support skills. The issue still was un-resolved. When she was asked to raise a ticket she did not do so. Over on top they have already billed us for the cost without being activated. It was brought to the notice of mr. Ram and mr. Rohit who have promised but nothing as yet. The helpdesk services are bad and there is no connect between billing and other provisioning systems and is very pathetic to handle customer

                  Our corporate number of airtel is [protected] and instead of sending bills to the usage of this number, company is adding the usage of another unknown mobile number [protected] which does not belong to us. Customer service in spite of several representations does not understand the small issue and fais to resolve the same and sending bills again and again with the same mistake and threatening to disconnect if we failed to pay.

                      I have recharged my phone for rs 349 on oct 6 and i am supposed to get 1 gb data per day for 28 days. I am not getting internet facility from oct 29. I have not utilised 1 gb data for the day.
                      For more than two hours trying to talk to the representative by dialling 121 and 198. The ivrs is so annoying and doesn't give an easy option to talk the the representative which must be purposely done. I had tried by choosing different options different times but no use. The offers which they give expires before validity and customers many times do not notice this. So they are taking advantage of it. This should stop.

                        I am an airtel user from last 6 years, i never face problem with this network, but from last 3 days i am not able to use internet in my phone, i spoke with customer care helpline, but are not able to solve the issue, everytime they say wait for some time it will start and again no internet, they are very good in giving excuses and changing their statements from person to person. I am very dissappoined with the airtel service and thinking of changing my number to other network, because they are saying my simcard is 3g and dont support 4g and i cant use net and i have to go to my hometown to upgrade my sim no any retailer can upgrade it. Comeon man we are living in 21 century and they are talking all #. I am very very upset with the service.

                              I have initiated a request on customer care of airtel to de-activate my number ([protected]) on 23rd oct 2017 and they told me that the request has been raised and my number will get de-activated within 7-8 days (I have to pay for these days as well). Now on today (29th oct) when i have called them again to know the status, they told me that no such request has been raised and today they have raised a new request (Req no.[protected] and told me that i have to pay for another 7-8days.
                              Is this the proper way to work? And the behavior of executive was also very depressing. I am not going to pay for another 7-8days if i have initiated a request on 23rd oct. I have a proof of calling them.

                              I have found this is the best platform to share my grievances. Please help me on this.

                                Sir/ madam,
                                I ported my postpaid connection to prepaid recently on my airtel mobile no [protected]. After paying my outstanding, i paid a frc of rs 449/-. My mobile was ported properly. Now the following problems are there:-
                                (A) internet 4g speed is very slow. Many a times it goes down to 3g and h or h+.

                                (B) outgoing sms is also not working.

                                (C) airtel appliance shows 0 balance and 2gb data, while it should be unlimited talktime 1 gb data per day and 100 sms per day

                                Please restore the desired services.

                                Thanks.
                                Yours sincerely,

                                    Website: airtel

                                    Blaming user instead of their app.. I tried to recharge [protected] from airtel money, first it gave failed transaction. After my first transaction i check my transactions, not deducted any money. I did same transaction again, this time recharge successful. After second transaction, only one transaction is showing, but money deducted twice. After my complaint about double money debit, then transaction is updated for 2nd with ₹199 with some description... And they gave message to mobile they deducted from account second time.

                                    Next day morning showing double recharge to my wife mobile.

                                    They are not even willing to know more details about it. Directly saying not refundable and lost.

                                    My questions to them
                                    1. Why your app transactions not shown immediately, why it is showing it as next day transaction.
                                    2. It is successful transaction, why it gave a failed transaction message, on my end.
                                    3. Why i got a message saying temporary block of ₹199. Next day evening.

                                    I am attaching my screenshot​s of messages and transaction history and my mail and their reply. I lost money by recharging unlimited plan two times is a problem.
