Airtel Complaints & Reviews

No airtel network in subrotopark area, since last night, i m stuck badly as i didn't have other network sim, i m using someone wifi to lodge this complaint. How you such branded company is just sleeping on it, do u want all customer to buy other network sim. Look into it's urgent. Ur app is suggesting my complaint is too short, what the hell u want me to write in this regard, when there is no voice and data network.

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].

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.

I'm shaurya thakur, my no. [protected]
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.

Dear Sir,

This is to bring to your kind notice the issue being faced from airtel mohali – after dealing so long with local airtel force i have no option left other than to write to you. We hope this email o[censored]s shall bring some results.
We are owner of world tech tower (1 lakh sq ft) at plot c203 phase 8 b mohali, punjab. We have rented one of our floors (12000 sq ft) to a company software unlimited indian pvt ltd. They gave a po of 50 mbps to mr. Rakesh thakur one of sales executive on aug 8, 2017. Commitment was to give installation on or before aug 31, 2017. The company has 160 employees and have to move to our premises on sep 1, 2017. Company has not been able to move to our premises. There are huge financial losses. Company has escalated it to local senior airtel officials like anoop, manu sood, kulasekar but no one is responding back. Company is subsidiary of a us company – loss of that company and our loss is huge. Client is paying us 8.5 lakh per month.
We are also loosing other clients as this company has been talking to other that internet connectivity is an issue at our property. Ours is a very renowned upcoming property and with such issues we are not able to move ahead our business.
On top of it employees of airtel are not even responding. As a sales guy we understand that one should go and meet clients and update on situation. The people here are so irresponsible and there commitment means nothing. They are bringing bad name to airtel.
Kindly look into this and see if we can get this po done by sep 20, 2017 at least. This is very serious matter that needs your utmost attention.

This is my worst experience with airtel last month i got airtel broad band connection on 25/8/17 install in our office. I choose 1099rs (Tax extra), 90gb, 40mbps speed.
Yesterday i hv paid 1052 bill but still i got 6.59 speed. I had complaint in airtel. But engineer said airtel provide on that speed.
If i am not getting 40mps speed then i discontinue with airtel. I'll never ever connection with airtel.
