    Airtel is now ready to cheating customers, already airtel is shivering from jio and idea. Airtel is mutual understanding with her distributors and cheating.
    So airtel is using its brand value and attracting with non-proper plans.
    I used mobile number portability from idea to airtel prepaid. I successfully ported on 26th september 2017.. The distributor did frc of 295.
    The plan is daily 1gb data and a to an unlimited calls.
    But unfortunately, i got only 2 gb data and no daily data, so i contacted customer care then they replied that there is no plan of 295 it's 294. Ok, i inquired about this distributor he replied that 294 is for a new sim and for mnp numbers is 295. I conveyed this info to nodal officer of hyderabad they are also saying other things.
    By this cleverly airtel is cheating their many customers like this. If mnp up to 3 months should use this, this is the airtel plan,,,,
    Finally, bharathi airtel doing cheap tricks with many types of plans.

    I hope that beware of these free plans.

          Hi

          This is highly irresponsible and unprofessional of airtel to keep customers waiting for more than 2 months to port a number; and when porting is done there is no sim card provided.

          No: [protected]
          Name: saritha princy

          My fiance has requested to port her number from idea to airtel on july 24th 2017 (See attachment porting_request_msg. Jpg) and the process is still not complete till date. After the porting request was made, some representatives called from airtel claiming that they would come and collect the documents at her residence; after which one guy came and collected the documents and provided a sim card the same week. Months passed and we lost hope of getting any response from airtel regarding the porting; and so we threw away the sim which was provided thinking that the porting request is long gone.

          On 18th september 2017, another representative called my fiance telling that the porting is still incomplete and that she required the documents for verification a 2nd time (See attachment cc_documents_provided_1st_time. Jpg); which then was provided. When asked why the delay of 2 months, the answer was server issue. I am a server software engineer and i do not understand how a corporate company like airtel can have server issue for two months. Is there no business for the company or what!! Such a lame excuse!

          Moving on; two days later a 3rd representative called up and says that she requires the documents again (See attachment cc_documents_provided_2nd_time. Jpg); when asked about the previous submissions she replies that they lost it!!!... I mean seriously; lost two time submission of documents!!

          Now that the documents are verified (See attachment documents_verified_msg. Jpg), the idea connection is lost and airtel has not provided a sim card for the new connection. I have been calling airtel to provide a sim card for the past 3 days and all i hear from the customer care is 24 hours or 72 hours each time i call. My fiance requires a sim card asap. She is not able to make or receive any important calls because of this unprofessional-ism.

            Today i went to link my airtel number to adhar card in airtel office in atharbanki paradip. But this office in atharbanki was forcing me to pay rs 100 for linking adhar card with airtel mobile number otherwise they will not link. They were telling it is compulsory to deposit money in airtel bank. I told i don't want to open airtel bank. Then they told we will not link. So, kindly take strict action against them and punish them for doing such fraud.

                Same problem in middle of rajkot city.

                From last few months we are facing terrible network issues. Even in home, office or different location.

                Network often goes off.
                Tried all 2g, 3g and 4g network settings with new 4g sim.

                Issue tested with different mobile, different location in city as well as different airtel numbers.

                I'm using airtel from last 10 years but now we are porting out.

                    Airtel — cancel my airtel postpaid connection

                    I have been using airtel postpaid connection before 7 to 8 months. I requested to cancel my connection in airtel office (Ambawadi, ahmedabad), but it was not canceled and i was receiving bills and i could see that the connection is still in active state. I raised a complaint about this on 29 of sep 2017, to the airtel online complaint but nobody attended the complaint. I kindly request you to cancel my airtel postpaid connection immediately & give reverse credit to my account which i not used the number.

                    Please help me out in this regards. It has been very surprising for me to receive bill for disconnected & unused service.

                    My postpaid connection number is [protected]

                    Consider this as my authorization to cancel my connection and please cancel my connection immediately and deactivate my sim card.

                            Website: airtel

                            When i activated my airtel 399 pack it said 3g/4g valid for 84 days 1gb/day. But now they have stopped it after 30 days. They say if i further want to enjoy the rest of the pack then i have to convert to airtel 4g from my 3g sim. There was no such condition given on the offer. And i don't want to convert to 4g.
                            This is fraud as they are misleading the customers and committing fraud.
                            Further, their helpline is good for nothing.

                            This problem is seen with many other customers of airtel and so some legal action should be taken against airtel as per govt guidelines which say deceiving customers is punishable.

                            If my problem doesn't get resolved in next 3 days i am discontinuing my service from airtel and also lodging a complaint in consumer forum.

                                sms service not activated even after 48 hrs.

                                I had swapped my old sim with a 4g sim on 25/09/2017, and i was told that the sms and data services will be started after 48hrs., but i am still not able to send and receive sms. I called customer care but they could not help me as date of activation of my new sim has not been updated, they told me to wait for 72hrs. More.

                                I was using the number [protected] for sever years. But from a few monyhs it was nit in use and my no. Has been deactivated. This number has been regsitered in ssc for job. The commision will send otp on this number so it is essential to get the number active. There is not any provision to get the otp on other number. So it is my sincere request to you to reactivate my number. Or suggest the way to get the acyivated the same.

                                  1. मोबाइल नंबर [protected] mts से ported in हुआ है फलतः कुछ अपेक्षाए रखता है!

                                  2. उक्त नंबर पर दिनांक 28 september को 22:53 पर नोटिफिकेशन प्राप्त हुआ कि 399/- के recharge पर 84gb, 84 दिन unlimited voice call मिलेगा फलतः दिनांक 29 september को प्रातः 6 बजे 399/- का recharge किया गया फलतः 84 दिन 84 gb मिलने का sms प्राप्त नहीं हुआ है!

                                  Despite resolution I recieved a call from [protected] and [protected] asking debit card number which seems to be fake.

                                  As such why should not register officially complaint against the fake callers as well as against airtel company

                                    Dear team,

                                    Yesterday (26.09.2017) i bought new 4g volte intex brand mobile. I put my airtel sim in it. And i received a message from airtel it tells daily 1gb 4g data with unlimited any network calling with validity of 84 days. So i surprised and done a recharge immediatly. But after the recharge it shows only 28 days???
