I have charged my number for 349 on september 30th and till today i haven't received invoice as soft copy for same. I have requested for invoice calling customer care. They are denying to provide for same.

Very disappointing experience with airtel.

Got too many calls from customer care from different people and fed up of explaining the issue with everyone and still issue is not resolved.

    On[protected] at 3:25 pm i received a pre-recorded call from airtel stating that the remaining validity of my previous recharge is 2 days. Again on[protected] at 1:59 pm i received a sms stating that the remaining validity of my previous recharge is 1 day and also i received a pre-recorded call from airtel stating the same. Whereas, my pack had already expired on[protected]. And because of these misleading messages from airtel i lost my balance owing to calls and internet. And also i had no means of knowing when the validity of my recharge is ending because no information about it was provided on the my airtel app or also on *123#. I would like my balance to be refunded at the earliest and the my airtel app made a little more user-friendly.

      Service provider. Plse refund my normal balance rs.193.84 on my mobile which is prepaid. My complaint is still pending and it is
      Still unresolved since last month this mistake has repeated number of times. I hope this should not be repeated.

          As my sim was last month but someone is using now.So, kindly block my sim immediately
          sim number:[protected]
          The company want UIED of a damaged phone. Upon giving the uied as printed on the back of the phone they want a screenshot from the phone. How are we supposed to take a screenshot from the phone when the display isnt working?

          This is just an attempt made by them to dodge the cost of repairing the phone.
          I have mistakenly recharge the wrong number in my airtel app . please reverse the recharge and recharge the correct number

              I subscribed for the airtel secure plan 8 months back and was paying dam 79 rs per month. And now when my handset is damaged and i requested for the claim they rejected my claim saying that the phone got damaged in mysterious circumstances. Then why the hell you made me assure about having my back when my phone gets damaged.

              This is so damn pathetic.
              Resolve my issue or i'll be heading to consumer court for fraud promises made to sell your plans.

                    Hi team,
                    I am getting double charged for the internet connection in the monthly bill. This issue is going for last four months. But not been resolved. One strange thing and shocking thing was they told me that so many numbers are tagged under my name that is why i am getting double the amount in the airtel bill. How come so many number first can be tagged and collecting the bill amount for that. This itself a illegal activity. After they agreed the mistake also they are not showing interest in solving the issue other than calling after every email to [protected]@in. Airtel.in. I had spoken with appellete team, managers everyone. But no body took responsibility and solved the issue.
                    I explained the issues with nearly 20 guys and mailed nearly 30 times. Just getting some standard template as a reply.

                    1) i want my billing to be corrected.
                    2) remove/disconnect all the numbers what and all tagged under name without my knowledge.
                    Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                    I have recharged my above mobile ([protected]) for Rs.200/-on yesterday (05.10.17) thro' my friend's internet. The mobile no was correctly given and the net account also debited. But, no balance has been reflected in my phone. Please check the matter and inform.

                        Hi, i ported my number [protected] from vodafone to airtel when airtel approached me mentioned 25 gb data for each month & excellent network.
                        Now 100% calls are getting dropped & coverage is very poor.
                        Customer number is [protected]
                        Cell number - [protected]

                        I was promised of 25 gb data each month & in invoicing i can find only 1 gb data is given & i have been charged for all extra usage.

                        I dont think airtel cares about customer but can someone look into this?
                        Regards

                        I am trying to send sms from my airtel number but it failed everytime, i can recieve sms anyways,
                        Airtel provides extremely poor network. While charging customers for 4G, they provide 2G internet. Most phone calls also end up getting missed due to disturbed network.
                        Extremely dissatisfying service.
                        Airtel really provide very poor and pathetic 4G netwrk everywhere..Their service is not fully served. Better to port to other.

                          Today, i have received call from number, saying that they are calling from lok adalat court as a case was filed against me for outstanding airtel bill and they have sent me 2 notice (Which i have not received).

                          I have been using bpl connection for very long time which got ported to airtel connection (After bharati airtel took over bpl) but after marriage i had to shift to another place.

                          A few months back my mobile having airtel sim got lost somewhere in house itself and so i lost all connections.

                          I called multiple times to customer care to provide me new sim against lost but didn't got proper response from customer service provider.

                          Im still very surprised that how this much outstanding was shown on the unused sim.

                          Also want to know that why they are calling now whereas airtel could have called me earlier to pay outstanding on my alternate number

                          Now some one called me saying that she is from lok adalat that they have sent legal notice twice and have i received it.

                          Also the airtel guy threatens me to appear before lok adalat for any explanations

                          If this is not from lok adalat, am surprised how a company like airtel use these kinds of methods on their customers who are using airtel services from many years.

                          Appreciate your help on this.

                          Regards,
                          Tejshri

                            I raised connection request ticket on saturday 7th october 2017. One of the guys from airtel called me and said, they generated the appointment request on your address for the same day. Even after 5 days, i only got calls for appointment scheduling but they didn't visit till now.
                            They are not confirming whether they can deliver the plan or not.

                            Hi,

                            Airtel is having world's poorest signals today in greater Noida, india. There is absolute no signal in phone and even on my wifi. My office is ruined - my job is at stake. I am very very upset with airtel and feel it a very big mistake of my life!

                              I'm on international roaming since july'17 and i confirmed with airtel customer care if i should convert my number to prepaid from postpaid to avoid overcharging of bills. Following are my issues:
                              1. Team misinformed me that i will get a bill of only rs 149 per month for using postpaid number, with which i will be able to receive sms and number will remain active. And no surprise, i received a bill of around inr 6000.
                              2. Team continuously ignored my emails knowing that i cannot reach them physically. On asking senior management's contact details, no response was given. When my fiancée reached out to them, they reduced the bill amount on their own to 1800, which is still too much as compared to what i was supposed to pay
                              3. My number has been deactivated and i am always a international tollfree number. Is it not common sense that if you deactivate someone's number, they can't call you back
                              4. When i gave my international number to contact me, nobody reached out to me
                              5. Even when this dispute is on, airtel is charging late payment fee charges to me. Are you kidding me, i am not even using your service and still i am liable to pay these charges??
                              I have a count of 59 emails exchanged between the team and myself in last 1 month and this is my last try to post it here. I would reach out to regulation authority if you guys still don't resolve this issue.

                                        My complaint registered undercogcl[protected] is not resolved as per a sms sent. I have complaint 15 days back and was told it will resolve by 28th sept., long lapsed. Today morning i was told 48 hrs, n recieved a msg promptly that issue is resolved? Absurd to hear this. We are harressed that this is the only provider who has coverage issuses. I am in ntc house ballard estate which has no coverage when we enter the building. If i need to check messages it has to be on the road? I have lost a lot of clientale during peak season. Is airtel going to fill up this gap???
