Address: 560003

In the past two months i have visited the airtel express store situated at sampige road malleshwaram, bangalore nearly 10 times for 2 reason, linking my aadhar card and getting a 4g sim.

As this particular store is near to my office i wanted to get things done here, but whenever i visited the store i didn't get any solution from them not even once, all that i could get from them is a reason stating that "there is some technical problem and they couldn't serve me" and above that they informed that the problem is across all airtel stores, initially i believed them but after 3 to 4 times i tried a different store situated at basaveshwar nagar (Just 10 minutes after these lazy people claiming that the network is down), the basaveshwarnagr store linked my aadhar within 2 minutes and i inquired with them whether the network was down and they replied that airtel is never down.
Since two days 23rd oct and 24th oct 2017 i was visiting this malleshwaram store for a 4g sim and the reply was same, i visited nearly 4 times in two days but in vain, then i got a new 4g sim within 5 minutes from kengeri airtel store situated near my home.

If the staff here doesn't want to serve the customers then you should close the store.

      Airtel is not providing fair data services. They are stopping data service saying data exhausted but how can it possible to exhaust with in 15 minutes with out any downloads or videos. They are even not providing any details to understand how data get used because if they give details people will know their cheating. Please consider this as public request to look into this issue and make sure they keep their commitment to customers in fair way.

      Thanks
      Vijay

                Hi airtel team,

                This is to bring to your notice that, i have been ported 2 of my number (98xxxxxxxx31 & 83xxxxxxxx31) to your network from another operator.

                At the time of activation i have been offered a plan corporate infinity 499 and infinity 299 plans.

                But the 299 infinity plan was not activated and instead of myplan 299 activated on the number 83xxxxxxxx31. After much followup, i have been told that, corporate 499 plan need to changed first to change the infinity 299 plan.

                Subsequently i have been raised request to change the plan to infinity 499 family on 22nd oct through ivr. I have been informed the plan will get activated in 30 min. Post that i can change my other number to family 299 plan. I have recd the plan change sms by 2.20 pm on 22nd oct and i have opted to change the plan of other number through myairtel app.

                On 22nd evening around 6 pm, i have noticed that my other number 83xxxxxxxx31, was unable to browse the internet and checked on myairtel app, it was showing the family 299 plan was activated. So i checked my number 98xxxxxxxx31 and it ws showing pending for activation. I immediately given a call to customer care and informed the same. I was told that the plan activation is pending and will get activated by post 12 am 23rd oct.

                I was constantly checked myairtel app and found the plan on my main no was still not activated. Around 12.30 pm i gave call to customer care and enquired for activation. I was told that the system activation done, but it need to be manually approved which is pending, so they raised a complaint 80464789 and told me that the case will be resolved asap.

                Again in the evening around 6pm noticed that my other number 83xxxxxx31 was unable to browse internet and called customer care. I was told that your earlier complaint is still pending and will get resolved in 24 hours. As i have insisted for data connectivity, another complaint 80480397 raised and informed the same will be resolved in 24 hours. I have assured by customer care manager mr. Jimmy, that he will personally look into this and get it resolved at the earliest.

                No reply received for sms sent to 121 regarding the status for both the complaint number

                Can i get the update on when can the plan will be activated for both the numbers.
                When can my child number able to get internet service? When can the clubing of both number will happen?

                As per the latest update from customer care that my child number will get added only on next billing cycle.

                Need proper explanation and update.

                Regards
                Saravana

                            Hi,

                            It has been really sad to observe the worst ever services from airtel.

                            I never have been careless in my handling of the phone, you can check the condition of the phone. It is still has same new finish. However, i was never aware that slipping of phone as to be some specific occasion until i heard that my claim has been rejected due to it was slipped and fall down on the road. What a rubbish statement ever...

                            May i request you to look into concern as after 10 days of rigorous follow up i could register my claim and after 10 days of picking the device, i have been told that claim is rejected. I have not taken this secure services from insurance provider and i dont want to hear their lame excuses. I am going to proceed with legal option if not taken my request seriously.

                            Hoping to hearing from you soon.

                            My phone number is [protected]

                              Even after sending multiple reminders and calling at their given number "400". The listed problem is not resolved.

                              They claim to give 100% cashback.. But nothing is coming as cashback. Even multiple reminders sent but every time they are asking reference number and more details, even thigh sent in 1st mail.

                              Need resolution.

                              Dear customer care executive,

                              There is no update on my issue since 3 months.

                              If you are not resolving the same, i am going to lodge complain in consumer court.

                              Thanks,

                                With reference to above mentioned subject myself rajendra singh, r/o plot no:96, kailash nagar, jhotwara. My oversaid prepaid no. Is discontinued from 05/oct/2017 upto till date. I tried to contact all possible airtel stores and they are not giving me any solution. I almost contact 4-5 authorized persons dilip singh, jagdish, mayank, swati at hr. Being a customer i want to avail services as earlier.

                                I request you to kindly look into the matter and do the needful. Due to this incident i almost got huge loss both mentally and financially.

                                So it would be highly appreciated if you will provide me with solution. Looking forward to hear from you.

                                  It has been many days i am really very upset about the airtel services.
                                  I have taken the broad band connection in s1 504 flat, supertech czar, omnicorn 1, greater noida with the fixed line number [protected].
                                  I used the connection only for one month and shifted my house to ghaziabad raj nagar extension. I requested for transfer of broad band services but airtel technical people rejected to shift my connection. Hence i requested to cancel the connection. Complaint number is 86859720
                                  The executive came and collected the modem and router back from us and said the amount will be refunded asap and given us a receipt. But till now no response.
                                  I tried called to customer care several times but no use. No one entertained my called and very rudely they spoke with me. I have spoken with avinash, vivek and dhruv.
                                  Airtel customer care guys called me several times on my mobile number [protected] and promised me that they will arrange refund and its confirmed but yesterday when i called to airtel broadband team they said very rudely that they cannot refund. If this is a case why you people false commit to clients and why you guys suggested me to cancel my connection without transferring and said me to wait for 45 days for refund. Why you guys came and collected the modem and router from me.

                                  Kindly arrange my refund asap or i will go the consumer court.

                                  Now i have shifted to new address

                                  S2 810, socrates 2, supertech czar, omnicorn 1, greater noida.

                                  Make sure that i get the refund to my bank account or to my new address.

                                  Yesterday also i registered a complaint by speaking with dhruv and vivek and the complaint number is 89321810.
                                  But now when i am checking this is not in records.
                                  Airtel has the worst customer support. They are cheaters. They manipulates the clients.
                                  It has been many months my problem never resolved.

                                    I am unable to receive 4g signal inspite of having a 4g handset and 4g sim. All others around me are receiving 4g signals except me. I have tried changing the sim to other mobile and the same problem exists. I have also contacted the customer care twice and they haven't solved the issue yet. At first they told me that they will update the sim settings, but i didnt get any message. Then the second time they told me that they are still processing at and an executive will get in touch with me through email. And the thing is they didnt even get my mail address.

                                        Hi my name is keshav, my mobile number [protected] which i recharged with the amount ₹ 345/- on 17th october 2017. Transaction i'd number.[protected]. The recharge failed n got a sms saying in 2 hrs that amount will be returned back, since then i am waiting for the payment. The worst part is if i wanted to call or register a complaint we can only reach airtel through 121, which again charges money as i have taken a package there is no available balance. Now whom should i speak to.
