Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I had been to my native kannur on 28/10/17 and upto 4 pm i could get calls on my mobile but after 4pm upto 9 am it shows only emergency calls. Later till next morning it was ok but on 29/10/2017 i could neither receive or make calls and it was showing only emergency calls. I had to face lots of problems plus i had to spend almost 200 rs to call my family at bengalure by other sources. Is it not deficiency of service from airtel.

Without my father concern airtel bank account has been opened also lpg subsidy is direcly transfered to this account plz deactivate lpg subsidy to this account i willbe highly obliged also airtel customercare unable to resolve this query. Please help to resolve the same as my father is not tech savy and was unsble to use this service. This is a fraud or a kind of fraud to use individual identity to ful fill their targets

I ordered new set top box, they sent a local dealer with open seal box. After he installed everything i checked the remote and found it a very duplicate. My assumption got sure, when i saw the logo it was not the correct airtel logo. I contacted many people from customer care to local dealer, every one says this is a genuine product.

No one even bothered to check the remote once and logo printed on the remote.

Please check the attached logo from original logo provided on website and other resources.

I opted to recharge my airtel dth account no. [protected]-001 with inr 5801 under annual infinity plan on 6th september 2017. During october, i started realizing that i was still unable to view few hd channels under multiple categories.

I tried connecting with customer care several times between 10th october 2017 and 23rd october 2017 but even after 5 to 7 minutes of wait, calls used to get disconnected. Finally, on 24th october 2017, i spoke to an executive and detailed her the problem. She briefed that things are fine at her end, she was surprised that i am unable to view the channels. To my utter surprise, she mentioned that while i changed the plan, i should have proactively called up the customer care and requested them to allow me watch all the channels…. Or else how is airtel informed what plan i have subscribed for? 😊 my astonishment! Well, she had no patience to listen to me, rather she wanted me to hear first and at times when i failed, she was feeling irritated. What a world class customer care center!!!

Well, i requested for a technician’s visit on 25th october 2017 morning so that the problem can be rectified in front of me. (I decided to leave late for office). After an hour, i received call from a technician who was adamant on visiting me on 24th october itself and when i requested him to come the next day, he rudely said he can’t come in on 25th and that i should close the ticket. My request for reschedule turned deaf ears to him.
To my greater surprise again, i later on came to know that he has closed the ticket blaming me… he stated “customer isn’t reachable over phone.” …. Pathetic…. For his fault / unavailability and unprofessional behavior of him, how can he pass on the blame on a customer. What a world class customer care center and service!!!

On 24th october 2017 itself, i made another call to customer care and requested him to schedule a visit on 25th. ….. Frustrating that this request was not taken up only i. E. My request to arrange for a technician’s visit on 25th october was put in a dustbin. Wow!!!

I raised another request on 26th october 2017, requested for a visit on 27th and complained about the prior experiences. A floor supervisor assured me that the problem will looked into asap and a technical will be coming over to my place on 27th october. I received a call from a technician the same afternoon. He informed me that there are some mdh hardware related issues and he would require at least 2 days to look into the problem. However, again, he requested me to close the ticket and call him on his personal number after 2 days and he would solve the problem them. Surprisingly with unprofessional behavior, i refused his offer and asked him to talk to airtel and keep the ticket open till problem gets resolved. He mentioned, he would be in trouble if he the ticket is open for that long. I didn’t pay heed to him. Another wow experience at the hands of professional airtel!!!

On 27th october, a technician did visit my home (In spite of my request of morning visit, he arrived in the afternoon) and tried correcting the problem over 3 hours. He changed another set up box which i am not sure if it was new (Box, manuals or any other documents) weren’t given and asked me wait for another 24 hours to view any of the channels. (All the channels except naaptol weren’t broadcasted). I checked on 28th evening and channels weren’t broadcasted again, called up the customer care and the lady asked for another 24 hrs just to rectify card mismatch problem at server. When i called up the person who has visited my home, he put me in a conference with another local kannada speaking lady who clearly asked him why didn’t he rectify the problem while visit itself as it was probably a minute’s job. He promised to call me in 15 minutes but i am still awaiting for that 15 minutes to get over. 😊 well, to customer care lady, i clearly explained that the problem isn’t that big and it’s shouldn’t take much time and if it does, i opt for disconnection. She promised that maximum by 10.30am on 29th october, the problem would be resolved.

On 29th october, i spoke to another floor supervisor and requested for disconnection. He again started providing me all lame reasons and when i didn’t by it, he said he would take disconnection request. To my surprise again… the request not taken up. However, i started getting multiple calls from airtel dth enquiring whether my problem has been taken care of. Frustrating!!! In the evening, another lady called me up again, checked if the problem is resolved. When denied, she said she was refreshing up the system again…. And it worked. She clearly told me that the particular error code is just a refreshing issue at backend it hardly takes any time.

I am a 16 years old subscriber of airtel mobile (Average 6 number simultaneously though numbers keep on changing). I have used airtel’s broadband and landline between 2003 and 2015 (Relationship restored 2 weeks back) and had say good bye because of such pathetic customer service issues only, though it wasn’t that bad till 2 years back.

I again sincerely request you disconnect my airtel dth connection with immediate effect and return my money back with immediate effect. First money back and then only you think of procuring anything from me as i don’t believe airtel at all now. You all are liars and cheaters occupying the places there. I plan to disconnect my airtel boradband as well as all my family mobile connections from tomorrow. That means……complete no to airtel going forward.

I am not receiving any sms from any network, and my number is [protected]

Today i was working. It was a normal day like any other day. Suddenly i got a message saying gamepind services is activated. First of all, i was sure it's a technological error. Because i didn't do anything.

But after that, i called airtel customer care. They told that it was activated by an sms. My phone is password protected and only used by me.

They refused to give my money back. Told me that they forwarding my call to their officer. Then waited around 30 seconds and then the same person told that the officers are busy. Then asked me what can he do other than this. I said to give my money back. Some seconds around (6 seconds) they didn't speak and then hung up.

It really pieces of a customer. I don't know what happening with airtel india but very bad service. It's not about deduction. But they don't even solve when requested. Very bad experience.
My faith on airtel completely gon. I will definitely look to change airtel.

I left my job. They have not paid broadband for which airtel is constantly disturbing me with multiple calls in spite of several complaints by mail[protected], personal response to multiple calls from [protected] and personal complaint at airtel payment centre near kodambakkam gokulas signal. I am continuously disturbed by numerous calls everyday.

I had booked airtel hd dth online on 25.10.2017 for rs 1590 in which full hd channels were offered free for 1 month alongwith rs 2500 makemytrip voucher. The connection was installed on 25.10.2017 itself but hd channels were not activated. I was told by the installation person that it will be active the next day. When i did not get hd channels the next day, i called on airtel helpline 12150 and i was told that hd channels are activated within 72hrs from date of installation. I was also promised that rs 2500 worth of voucher will also be sent within 72 hrs. I waited till 28.10.2017 (72 hrs) but still i did not get the said offers. I tried innumerable times to contact airtel after that but i am unable to get any response. There helpline no. Is not working. As it has been 5 days now since installation of new connection, i am compelled to write this complaint. Please help to resolve my issue.

Dear sir/madam,
I've given a complaint to the airtel office on july 26, 2017 that the range inside my house is very poor. There is no network coverage that i'm not even able to call anyone. The complaint number is 78100952. I've spoken with customer care several times and no action is taken yet. Kindly take immediate action or else i'll have to switch to some other network.

Regards,
Thangakodiarasan

Worst experience ever in my life time.
These guys doesn’t care for customers.
I want someone to call me to discuss my issue!
It is been hilarious speaking to the customer service agents. They just don’t know anything.
I submitted for an airtel secure claim for my phone which is broken, it was initially rejected by some morons, and the reject reason was invalid documents.
Can they prove me which document was invalid?
Then i raised some complaint, then i received an email, it will be completed in 21 days.
It’s been 10 days i received that email, i called your customer service again to check the status of it.
Now they told me again, it is rejected.
What the hell is wrong with you guys?
I have my postpaid mobile/airtel digital tv/ my broadband/landline with you guys.
I’m gonna cancel each and everything. And move else where.
Don’t just say you got the fastest network, it is necessary to give a proper customer service as well.
I badly want to escalate this to higher level and let them know what the customer service group is doing.
Call me i want to speak to someone!
You guys don’t respond to any of the reviews wrote on your page, not even a single person is treated.

Dhanlaxmi an agent.

Prakash - supervisor from airtel secure team working from bangalore.

Above mentioned 2 stupid fellows, dont even bother whether a customer leaves you or not.

I badly want to speak to some higher authority and explain them clearly about this.

See the email that i have received, it states 21 days.

If you do not want to this out, i do not want to pay any bills, just release my number, i will go away.

I'm using airtel number since very long... I've been facing a lot of network issue... Call dropping... And the most terrifying and worst 4g network... It does not shows 4g in my home... It shows ethernet... I still have 92 gb o[censored]nused data... I asked many times for help as well as there person came and asked to visit my residence... He said that the other side of building across the street is troubling my network... So now should i change my residence for a bad and worst network???

Please do something...

Hi team,

I have been charged with unnecessary bills from airtel when i checked with customer care representative he told me that i have activated some service which i was not aware of then i told him that i did not get any intimation about it he started telling me it is some other services and internet handling service.

I purchased an iphone7 from airtel under their ongoing scheme of paying 2499 every month over 2 years from october 2017. This amount includes 649 as monthly mobile rental plan. My current active plan is 499. Now due to their internal issues they have kept my activation of this plan on hold which im not responsible for in any way and due to this my internet services have been blocked which initially they said will be resolved in 4 hours, then 12 hours then 24 hours and now 48 hours. And its really unprofessional on behalf on airtel team to be making the customer suffer for what they are responsible for or for their internal issues.

Hence after failing to have more patience on this isse i would like to complain regarding same.

I ported form jio to airtel. I received the porting completion sms on 28th oct 2017 10.49pm. The following day my jio sim got deactivated. Once i saw airtel signal, i called 59059. But calling it connected to bot which keeps telling different services for 5-10 min and doesn't ask to connect for tele-verification.
I'm getting incoming calls and also able to make outgoing calls. But i'm not able to connect to internet. When enquired regarding this with customer care, they say tele-verification is pending, but when calling 59059 it plays a recorded voice and doesn't ask to connect for tele-verification.

Plz help urgently.. My contact no : [protected]

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.
