Sir
I had purchased an airtel sim i guess in 2008 and it taken under my dad's name. Now they are asking us to link the number with adhaar and my dad is no more so can i link it with my adhaar number or should i change the number to my name and then link it. If i have to do so what are the procedures. What are the documents required and how much time will it take to change

    My airtel prepaid number is [protected].

    I placed a request through airtel store to replace my damaged sim. I placed the request on 08.09.2017 after successful aadhar integration. Though it was told to me that maximum it may take 24 hours to activate the new sim.
    It is almost 70 hours, but my sim card yet to be activated.
    It is really painful for me to wait for so long to get the service.
    Airtel is now worse when compared to others.

    Bhaskar

          I have contacted airtel on many occasions about the fact that my ‘phone’ keeps loosing the signal and needs to be restarted. I have even asked for a new sim card but this doesn’t help. I have reset the network settings but again this doesn’t work. I have an iphone 7.

          I used to be with airtel until recently with no problem (Same phone) before i changed to vodafone but found that they did not have the same signal etc that i required so decided to come back to airtel. Which i am not regretting?

          I am missing many phone calls in my business as a hotelier and the internet is also dropping out.

          Why!!!

The problem is persistent since 1 months or more and it is still not resolved recharge date 24-july-2017, there is no speed from the network every time i make the complain and every time the process is the same, then i have to complain again, again the same procedure.

            I am regretting right now taking the airtel 4g network connection, in spite of paying 399 rs for 84 days i am not getting the proper service than what is the point of keeping the connection. I am tired of it now. Its better you resolve the problem or give me my money back with the harassment charges.

                I took airtel 6 months plan of 6gb per month in 6k in january. Payment was done in january only. Although i dint use it but that is no issue. The issue is now after 6 months they are sending me further bills without any usage showing outstanding of 1503rs without any permission from me whether i wanted to continue it after 6 months or not. I request airtel to pls deactivate it ([protected]) and since airtel is a respected company i don't except them to charge people without any usage.

                        I have raised complaint again and again wo the customer care of airtel. But there is no reply.
                        1st i am unable to call customer care as what ever selections is being asked is in kannada which i don't understand.
                        I have asked multiple time to change my language but no action has been taken yet.
                        2nd i have recharged for 349 on 19th aug 2017 which gives benefits o[censored]nlimited call std/local and 28gb net for 28 day. But from 9sep itself my balance got deducting. For the same i wasn't able to call customer care as my language is kannada i raise to port my number, so customer care people will call them self to ask the issue. When i received call from them a person asked me to raise a complaint in calling to 155233.
                        What the hell is this. I am frustrated with airtel.

                                I have procured an airtel home wifi connection dongle no [protected] on 26 aug 2017, and paid an advance of rs 3000/- for period of four months of service to be provided, the connection has been non functional since 01 sep 2017 and in spite of repeated complaints to the air tel customer care and vist to the air tel store and service provider the company has not made any efforts to restore the services and rectify the fault. This has resulted in considerable loss to my work.

                                  We have paid the amount rs.1000 for the broadband connection and the airtel guy from sector-35, faridabad told us that our connection will be set up tomorrow or the day after that. But it's been a week since that and no one has contacted us regarding the router and connection. We tried calling the same guy but he has been avoiding our calls and when he picks up he makes excuses everytime. Please do something otherwise people will lose faith in your company.

                                    I have already escalated my complaint regarding billing issues however still not received any revert.

                                    The reference numbers are mentioned below:
                                    1) reference number is po[protected].
                                    2) reference number is po[protected].

                                    I have changed my plan and airtel has charged me exorbitant data charges of rs.3200/- wherein my data usage is quite less as i have wifi at home. I have escalated the issue however did not receive any revert yet, got a call today from customer service for payment so asked them to resolve the billing issue however due to line disturbances call got disconnected and post that no revert from them.

                                    Request you to intervene as i am quite sure it's an error due to plan changes, i have infact gone to a higher plan so this charges just cannot be possible.

                                    Regards,

After doing the recharge the balance is shown in my airtel app but there is no nwtwork in my mobile. I called the customer care who informed that the number has been allotted to some other person because it was not used for more than 90 days.
                                        Now, i want refund of my rs 60 because if the number was disconnected then how it is displayed in my airtel app. If it was allotted then why it is shown in my profile of airtel app. Moreover, i was never informed by airtel that my number was disconnected.

                                        Kindly resolve the matter and refund the money in my sbi account.
