I m facing following problems with airtel network -
A) no internet -
1) when net is off - calls can be made
2) when net is on - network goes off and calls cannot be made and no internet also
Already changed the sim card to new (As directed by airtel customer care), but the issue is not resolved.

B) poor call connectivity (It takes 5-10 secs to start ringing)

Above issues are prevalent pan india for my number. Issues persisting since last 3-4 months, but no resolution has been provided.

    I am the coordinator for my company and i have been trying to raise a complain regarding improper billing for the past 1 month. Last month i paid the bill despite the error since the amount was small and i did not want to be late and hoping it will be eventually looked into and reversed the following month. This month i got an even bigger error in billing and after multiple emails, i have no reply and the bill due date has passed. I am unwilling to pay until someone responds to my query and reverses the error but until now, i have not been able to speak to anyone who can do this. 121 say they cannot help becuase its a corporate connection. And corporate email helpline does not reply!

      I have taken 649 data plan & airtel is offering 28 GB data but actual offered 8 GB data. Now when I upgrade my plan upto 30 GB data as per airtel representative request now from last Saturday 14th, my mobile data pack is non functional & your representative at local branch is not picking any
      phone. It is the only problem in my 2 no's.

          Hi team,

          I have been contacting the customer care for the past two months regrding the same issue. My number is not provided with adequate offers as all the other fellow airtel mobile users i kow.in fact i have been doing a continuous recharge of huge amounts to my number and i have not been provided with offers.

          I have been paying a monthly pack rs.349 for 28 days and all my fellow friends who use the same airtel, some of them have even purchased the number after i did, have got the recharge of r.399 (28days+28days+28days), while i have been asked to pay an over charged offer every month.

          When asked to customer care agents, for the past two months i am getting the same reply as nothing can be done on this matter.

          You need not have a customer service, if nothing can be done for a complaint.

          Why is this discrimination just for my number. I guess other service providers are providing better offers than i have been provided in airtel. This is totally disappointing

          The customer service professionals even said that i wont be able to cancel my number for this complaint and all. How will overcharging only one customer not be treated as a complaint. Fyi (I spoke to the l1 and l2 representatives today and both said the same reply)

          I have totally lost my hope in airtel and i am planning to raise a consumer complaint in the forum with proofs how i have been over charged for the same service that has been provided for other airtel users for a lesser price and questioning the existence of customer who said they cant help me in this matter.

          And then i will go ahead and cancel this number.

          You will lose a lot of customers if you provide such bad offers.

          Complaint number : qschm[protected]

          Thanks

              Address: Pondicherry, Puducherry, 605014

              I am a scholar of pondicherry university and recently i ported by bsnl number to airtel postpaid. But airtel has very poor reception inside the campus and because of this am losing out on many important calls.
              This has been a constant problem inside pondicherry university and so most of the students prefer bsnl connection but then bsnl internet is very slow. So we are caught up in a dilemma. I need hi speed internet for my academic purposes and hence took the decision to port to airtel. I am happy with my airtel connection when i am outside the campus but the situation is just the opposite inside the campus.
              Please do the needful asap.

                Hi myself dr chandra mohan reddy using airtel postpaid number [protected].

                Since 2 months iam struggling with internet connectivity issues. Everytime they will rectify and again same thing will happen to me. I have to do multiple calls to airtel for the same.
                On each call they will tell same story wait for one day.
                Iam one busy doctor and wasting most of my time in calling customer care and they will keep me waiting for almost half an hour and will tell the same story wait for one day.

                Recently same incident happened to me
                I had raised the complaint against network connectivity issues two days back and still the problem not rectified and whenever i will call same answer wait for one day.
                Iam fed up of all these.

                Airtel is the most irresponsible network towards customers.

                Kindly help me with this

                            I took airtel broadband connection on 24-oct-2017 and raised a service request on 30-sep-2017 regarding my frequent disconnection of network. But still airtel network team unable to resolve.
                            After raising disconnection request i got a call from cancellation department and they gave commitment that we will resolve this issue shortly but still there is no progress.

                            I have some question please clarify

                            1) what is eta of resolving a ticket (Why my issue is not fixed last 17 days)

                            2) as per your service specialist this issue is from airtel due to low copper wire.

                            If you do not have proper infrastructure then why you are giving new connection?

                            3) some of your service specialist are saying you can call to 121 and ask for connect my name if issue will persist (Eg harish told me). While requesting service specialist to specific person they are asking we cann't connect specific person and disclosed our location. I do agree with business policy. Yesterday i called to your executive and he is saying i am from delhi it's not my scope and i will escalated to bangalore team. (If disclosing of address is not in your policy why this guy disclosed (I assumed this policy is for cheating customer)

                                My airtel mobile number: [protected], is showing "emergency service only", from the past 3 hours. I'm using a brand new samsung s8 plus. From the time i purchased this phone 2 months back, i haven't removed the sim. When i call airtel customer care, regarding this issue, they keep telling me that need to change sim, as it might have got damaged. I don't understand the logic, as to how a sim, inside the phone get damaged, with out taking it out. My s8 plus itself has no single scratch on it. Such an illogical explanation from airtel is quite frustrating.

                                  As per technical report : reapeter is needed for net work issue. Bt it's cost is 5 to 6 lackhs... Thus it is not possible for the company.
                                  I said ok...!! If you are not able to provide me network then make me free to shift with another service provider. But they saying.. It also not possible."due to trai's rules... Lock-in - period of 90 days...!!!???

                                  I do not want to shift with another company.., bt. When airtel" is not able to provide their network.. To me... Then how that rule applied to me sir...???!!!

                                      I got a call from executive rahul kumar explaining me to upgrade my plan to 799
                                      I told will look into it without any verification or consent or proper confirmation call disocnnected quickly and then i received messege that plan has been upgraded.
                                      Then i called air tel cu care and execute priyanka received the call and she took request for verification but no one turned up yet though as per executive complain was on high priority

                                      This is really harassing from airtel withiout any confirmation or anything how can they cheat customers through spam calls.

                                      Each month i ma getting huge bill amount though my usage is limit
