    Sir/madam,

    I had taken airtel dongle-4g connection in the month of march 2017. Dongle no. Is [protected]. During july 2017 one airtel agent called me and requested for upgradation of existing plan as it has some good offers. Accordingly i accepted the request and one airtel agent visited me and collected my id proof, photograph and gave new dongle sim no. [protected]. I discarded the old no., activated the new no. And started using the same. After one month o[censored]sage i received a message to pay rs. 513 due for bill dated 21st august 2017 for the new dongle no. [protected] but no hard copy or soft copy of the bill received. I made the payment for the same but no confirmation message received. Again after a week i received a message to pay rs. 885 due for bill dated 27th august 2017 for old dongle no. [protected]. I was shocked to see this and called your agent who called me for urgradation request initially. She casually told that i had to give a disconnection request of old no. And asked me to contact customer support and give cancellation request. Accordingly i contacted your customer support helpline and told this issue. Moreover inspite of knowing that both dongle no. Are registered with same mobile no. And address and also he told that new sim was not required for upgradation and could have taken the upgradation request on old no. Itself and he asked me to pay the bill of old dongle no. After requesting to him that i have not taken any new connection and when they are upgrading the plan its airtel responsibility to cancel the old no. Automatically. I thought it would be auto-cancelled. Then he connected the call to some other person and she spoke somewhat in a rude manner that i have to make the payment for my old no. And she can give a waiver of 400 rs only and also regarding the bill she told the email id is updated wrongly so the bill is not sent. Finally she took the disconnection request of old no. And asked me to pay the amount of rs485 to complete the disconnection process. Accordingly i have made the payment. Today i called the helpline and informed about the payment made and status of cancellation and they told the no. Is cancelled and no outstanding due for payment. But no such mail or message received so far. Also for the new no. [protected] i have not received any hard copy or soft copy of the bill and also i am not able to add this no.in my airtel app.

    1. Please give clarification on why you gave new sim for upgradation of existing plan and also why u dint inform about the cancellation request to be processed.

    2. Please confirm the status of cancellation of my old dongle no. [protected]

    3. Please send bill as well as payment receipt of my new dongle no. [protected] immediately to this mail id.

    4. I am not able to add [protected] in my airtel app. Please suggest what is to be done.

        Such a bad network, terms & condition are hide, not transparent, customer service is very poor. I recharged rs.349 on 10th sep'17, only made call for only 18 minutes/day/week but now it says that i have not sufficient balance to make a call. The offer rs.349 prepaid recharge for free calls as per advertisement, but terms & condition not mentioned. It is fraud. Srikant

                I applied for postpaid to prepaid of [protected] in the first week of july. I had to visit their store at least 6-7 times. Then finally the store manager said one day that they have lost my documents and i will have to apply again. I said how could you misplace my id proofs and i will not give the documents again. On that he said that nothing can happen and i can do whatever i can do, i can go and complain anywhere. He was so arrogant as if it was my mistake. I then called customer care, with no help. Posted on their fb page and getting a standard reply since then that they are looking into it.

                    I have not been receiving a signal on my registered airtel number since last two days. I have been to local airtel customer support office and they asked me to contact airtel customer support number, which i did after series of questions they said my sim might have been damaged and i have to get a new sim.

                    When i visited nearest airtel store, the customer support executive was very arrogant and asked me to come next day as he wont be accepting requests after 5 pm. He asked me to come the following day after 12:30 pm, which i did accordingly and again another very arrogant and rude customer care executive said, he cant help me with that and asked me to come tomorrow. I am a working employee and cannot go around airtel customer service office time in and time out again just to get my sim activated. The customer service representative has no minimum curtesy to enquire the problem clearly and help me. He instead was very arrogant and rude, i want you to take action against that employee and get me an official apology. I am tired and vexed about the worst customer support airtel provides and will be jumping the ship as soon as possible and get rid of this stupid carrier.

                    Details of employee : mr. Kiran
                    Store office : airtel customer service centre opposite shah electronics, bhawani nagar, malkajgiri.
                    Time : 1:20 pm on 15 september 2017

                    I am expecting an apology from the mr. Kiran and ask him to solve my issues within 24 hours.

                      This is to inform that due to transfer from Delhi to Nashik, recently, I have ported my airtel mobile no[protected] from Delhi NCR circle to Nashik, Maharashtra which I am using since 2010-11. However, it has been noticed that an amount of Rs. 2500/- has charged as “Vanity pnc gold” in my first months bill. Consequently, I have talked to customer care and registered a complaint for resolve the issue. However, airtel company has not taken any action. Moreover, it has been instructed to pay the amount. However, it is not clear for me that why I should pay extra amount as I am using above no since 2010-11 and just ported my own mobile number from “Airtel, Delhi NCR to Airtel, Nashik, Maharashtra” due to location change. Further, during the porting time no executives from airtel retailer shop has raised the issue. Moreover, they have ensured that no additional charge will be taken for porting the mobile no. Regarding above issue, I have visited to retail shop of Airtel and it has been intimated by them that a request has been forwarded to resolve the issue but they are not sure regarding the end results.
                      Hence, it is my humble request to take my case to resolve the issue as it is public harassment by airtel. Moreover, being a citizen of India it quite surprise for me that how airtel company are cheated with public. For any more information please contact me on following no.[protected].

                            My airtel wallet debit transaction is blocked since 20 august. i contacted their customer care and they asked me to send self attested scanned copies of pan aadhar (which are already linked to the wallet) and bank statements but were never ready to give reason behind this action. now i have send them the required details but my wallet is still blocked. they are not replying to my mails and their customer care is not connecting to the representatives. the following is their last reply

                              Dear Sir/Madam,
                              Even after a lot of complaint I had given regarding the poor network in mithabagilu area (Killur), there was no response from the representatives of Airtel company. i lost my money as the network use to disconnect all of sudden in between our banking transactions. so i request you to ask Airtel Company to fix it to avoid further inconveniences to the people.

                                I am using Airtel Prepaid number from Haryana circle and I want to change my area circle to Punjab by remaining with the same operator i.e., Airtel(prepaid). But I have been trying from past 3 months to get my number ported and there appears an error which bars the porting process. Sadly none of your customer care executive and centre could decode that error. This is very disappointing and your toll free complaint number 198 is of no use it doesn't provide any option to get my complaint registered. I cannot change my number also I am unable to change my operator due to this error.
                                This is a clear harassment and I am greatly affected by it.

                                  Airtel company has become fraud, they promise to give you 1gb data/day + l&std calls on recharge of ₹399.
                                  & initially they were full filing it, but from the last several days they are only giving me 600-800 mb of data, i've complained so many times to customer care but they just don't have any answers. I've taken screenshots from *121*51# & call records of customer care executives & planning to sue them in consumer court! Really annoyed by airtel!!

                                    I've ported my no.[protect] from aircel to airtel and i've also inserted new sim but verification call to 59059 is not connecting. Every time i try to call at 59059 it automatically disconnects and also i'm unable to receive incoming calls to my number, along with this there's poor network signals in our locality. I couldn't believe how airtel is so weak in customer service.

                                      I was airtel number [protected] for 4-5 years. I converted it into a prepaid as i had to come abroad for sometime but still want to use this number. But after i converted to prepaid, it worked for very less time. Now showing that this number doesn't exist. How it can be possible. I even recharged it after it gets converted. And all of sudden, it shows that number is no more active. If they have to do any such things at least let the customer know. Kindly activate it again as i have submitted this number at all my bank accounts and other important places. I cannot change it everywhere as i still have to live abroad for some more time.
