I'm a customer to you from last ten years. You are not given offers to existing customers so iam sent port.1st october from [protected] i received call he offers me 84gb 84days with unlimited std and local calls for the recharge of rs 399/-. I am satisfied with that offer then i am transferred the amount from airtel bank. Now they will not activate that offer. Kindly check the phone conservation with me. Activate the promise offer at an early date. Wait for your reply.

      Actually from past few days when we are watching tv 📺 immediately in between there is a message appearing on the screen telling viewing card is not inserted properly and there is a disconnection occurring it is causing a lot of distraction and disturbance to us could you tell why we are facing this problem so actually we don't want to remove the viewing card as it may cause some problem if we don't remove it properly

        4g lte internet speed is very very slow. Even airtel 4g speed is not even matching with 2g speed of other network.. Day by day airtel network getting worst, i have given complaint earlier also and without any action taken i got message that problem has been resolved... Slowest internet speed among all network.. I am using this airtel from last 5 years but now i have to think about other network..

          I tried to swap my 3g sim to 4g by sending sms to 121, but accidentally sent wrong sim number. (Sent 19 digit no. Instead of 20), and then confirmed the submission as i didn't notice the mistake. Still i got sms saying that sim will be activated shortly, but i doubt it will - as i have sent incorrect no.
          Now i am hoping the system will detect wrong number and cancel my request. But i haven't got any reply after that and my old sim is still working (Been 10 hours).
          I even tried to cancel it myself by sending nsim to 51619, but that request is still pending too..
          What should i do

              I have ported out from bsnl to airtel to have 4g services 4 months back. Since then i am trying to get 4g services. I have tried number of times to get complaint lodged over 121 service. I could not get operator through options available in the service. Fortunately i got operator and informed to give message mo to 54325. It is saying keyword not available. I tried 4g to 121. It says 3g is already activated.
              It is completely deceiving public by saying 4g services and providing only 3g services.

                    Dear sir,

                    My phone number is [protected] and i've been a loyal customer of airtel since last 5-10 years using airtel broadband at home as well. I have a main balance of almost 1500rs but i'm unable to use that balance for recharging any packs like 399 plan. Where am i supposed to this main balance then if i can't use it for recharging basic packs that's appearing in myairtel app and also in 121 code. This is highest level of cheating by airtel.

                        Airtel is offering unlimited call and 1gb data per day for 70 days with a recharge of rs-399. After recharging the amount the benefit entitled to me is unlimited call and 1gb data per day for 28 days, i also have a 4g phone and the sim is of 4g facility. This kind of service is not tolerable. A lot of time this things happens and customer care executives say that no the plan was that now its the plan. I am still getting msg from airtel that in 399 recharge i will get unlimited call and data for 399 days

                              I have recharged my number with 399/- plan just three days back. But today internet is not getting connected. I'm trying since three hrs. This caused much inconvenience to my works resulting mental agony. Signal is too irritating. I didn't expect this from a firm like airtel. I'm residing at visakhapatnam, andhra pradesh. Pls do solve this signal issue at an early date. We have migrated to airtel from other networks for availing 4g network promoted by you. But we are not at all satisfied by the services provided by you. Nowadays internet playing major role in day to day transactions. Can u r management just imagine the loss caused to a middle class hard working person whose job is purely based on internet?? That to resident of a city not even a remote area. Pls do solve this issue or otherwise stop promoting about network. This is my humble request from all the middle class people.

                                  Airtel along with their local goons is threathening to not restore phone and broadband services since 10 days.

                                  Our phone has been disconnected and their onfield guy has updated his own number on our account and keeps responding to the customer support saying the issue is solved, it's an internal wiring issue etc.

                                  Airtel has resorted to cheap tactics to armtwist customers.
                                  Local airtel service technician is hand-in-glove with the airtel customer support and follow the same loop of sir we'll look into it, we'll escalate the matter etc

                                    I had last used the number #[protected] in april or may. It was a sim with lifetime membership. All of a sudden i have found that the number has been deactivated. Please guide me through to reactivate the sim. This is totally unfair and how can a number get deactivated when it was used just 3 or 4 months back without being brought into the notice of the person using it!!!

                                    Regards,
