      I recharged my pack 2999 on my number [protected]. However when i receive a call i and the opposite party can only hear gibberish. Network at&t. I don't have any other number in the us. My email is [protected]@gmail.com. My husbands number who is in india is [protected]. If this does not work then i would want a full refund as it makes no sense. Totally upset with the service.

        I send a complain in email on [protected]@airtel com about my data plan which is expired on 30 september. But i recharged with rs. 499 which got an offer for 105gb for 84 days on 2nd september. Due to negligence of customer service by the name lakshmikanth ambekar who don't give any reply for further information. Would you please kindly solve my problem? Plus i have a 4g sim and 4g handset which is compatible on the offer made. If you can't extend my data plan i kindly request you to send me back the money for which i recharge for. And plus one thing i can't get amy call or make a call while i'm using in 4g network. Please if you could resolve my problem, i'll be very thankful to you

                My number is [protected] and iam a postpaid customer of airte under 399 planl. I always pay bill on time without a single month delay airtel has a track of my payment. Today i. E on[protected] i got a bill of 1379.44 rupees, i was shocked to see that amount because my usage was under the plan 399. When i checked the detail bill it shows the data usage of 550 rupees.

                Now i ask airtel people why u bring new concepts like "airtel postpaid promise" when u cant stand on your words... I have a credit of 21.3 gb data of previous month in which i hardly used 7gb and you people blindly charged me 700 rupees. I didnt even recieved any data warning or any communication niether through mail nor through message. I have other sim jio and have 2gb data daily plan still i use your service because i trust you. But you people blindly cheated me for no cause. Iam attaching my data plan screenshot for your communication.

                  Received a sms that an amount of Rs.30/-is charged as VIDEOPINDW service. I have requested for this VAS to AIRTEL. Why they have detected the amouut ? This is purely a FRAUD .

                      Dear sir/ madam,
                      I have been using the airtel sim for the last so many years but presently it seems that it is better to port to some other network. As i was not able to make video calls from this network and regarding the same i had called to customer care also when i called in the morning the gentleman from customer care had given me a complain no. I. E, [protected]. As the complain was not resolved to enquire the same i had called the customed care again and told all the matter to the lady representative on the other side on the answer given by the lady i was surprised and felt to change my network, initially she me told me that it is a network problem but when i told her that network is very good and it is showing 4g in the network box then i don't know how she told me that airtel is not having a facility of direct video calling and advised me to use third party application viz., whatsapp, facebook, skipe. I sincerly request the authorities to please take a necessary action towards solwing my problem of video calling. And again it is a humble request that customer care representatives should be directed to provide the exact information not all this kind of excuses.
                      Thank you and looking forward to any solution.

                          I had 3 prepaid number [protected]//[protected]//[protected]
                          I migrated to all 3 to postpaid.. Since the day i did this mistake i started having network problem though at the same address i m using one more prepaid and one roaming.
                          I lodged a formal complain with ref number 79803908 on 26th after that i kept getting calls only to check whether the issue is resolved or not. No physical visit was made as promised at the time of lodging the complaint.
                          Today when i got angry about all this nonsense the executive put a closed status on this complaint with note that i refused a network survey.
                          I called ur customer care n after holding for over 30 min to speak to supervisor prateek and to my surprise he erased all data about this ref number n gave me other ref for the same 79933926. As of now both ref are showing no records.
                          Totally disappointed and frustrated with this type of service.
                          I dont know whether this complaint will make a diff or not but i m definitely goin to port the number to other network.

                              Dear sir,
                              I am a subscriber of post paid airtel number [protected] for many years.

                              This sim card is issued at mumbai. However, i have moved to thiruvananthapuram and using it on 'roaming basis' since may 2017.

                              It is unfortunate that i have lost my samsung handset containing airtel number [protected] and unable to find it even after all the efforts.

                              I request to kindly block my lost sim card and issue me with a new sim card with the same airtel number [protected] and arrange to deliver it at following address.

                              D. Chittibabu

                                I was working at gates india pvt ltd at punjab & my corporate mobile no. From airtel was [protected]. After i left the job & shifted to new location at madurai, i wanted to port the no from corporate to my name & also from punjab circle to madurai circle. My previous employer has provided the noc on airtel prescribed format. Twice i applied to a local airtel outlet at madurai, but funny excuses are given to me. 3 times person from company verified my new home address even. I want to know why my no. Is not getting ported? 3 times i interacted with customer care but got only assurances.
                                See attached the porting application & screen shot from the local outlet where i made application.

                                    Complaint number is cbnrd[protected].

                                    This is a 4g handset but airtel custmer care making fool by saying this that it is not.

                                      Dear sir,
                                      My mobile number is [protected] and i recharged 399 on august 12th but after some days 1gb per day offer not working in my phone money deducted when i browse data. Please resolve this issue. Airtel promised to give 1gbdata per day for 84 days. For more than 15days iam unable to use data. When i contact customer care they said to reset my 4g settings and restart the phone. Even then my problem didn't resolve. I went to airtel service centre to resolve my issue they said to switch to another 4g sim and gave new 4g sim. I did that too. But swapping didn't solve my issue. Iam vexed with all this and complaining you all this to offer good service with following minimum ethics and don't bother the customers with this cheap practices. They are loyal to you only because of your services. Don't make us disloyal to you. Please resolve the issue.
                                      Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
