Dear sir/ma'am

I am a postpaid connection of airtel. Today, 11/9/2017 i received one messaeg that hot chillies aervice has been activated for a chrage of rs 99. I called the customer care, she said we have no concern regarding this. This service is not provided by us. I ask her to show me the time and the detail when i have started this service. She was unable to do this. I just deactivated the service. And she did within a second. I asked her how can you pay money from my account to anyone without my concern. She was unable to reply. This is clearly a theft. I request you to we should punish the team and others as we do with a thief.

This is a trick, because most of the people do not know how to complaint or take money back from these thieves. If per day they deduct money from 100000 costomer and 50000 customers didint ask for this this. They can easily get rs 5000000 (Fiflty lakh) easily. And this happens.

Take a strict action against these thieves for this type of theft.

Thanks

      Dear airtel team

      I'm unable to recharge to my prepaid mobile no [protected] under bihar jarkhand circle. When ever i try to recharge online (Airtel website, airtel app, paytm) it says transaction failed.

      I have even tried recharging offline even that is failed.

      With zero balance and no recharge i'm facing a lot of trouble. I have tried speaking to customer care about this and there is no action taken.

        I am durga prasad. I am using airtel broadband connection (Ac no: [protected]). I shifted my house in last month aug 30 2017. So i had given request to relocate my broadband connection on same day.
        My new new house is very near to my old house (Just 250 mts). When i given request, customer care person said there is feasibility at my new house and same day one person called and he said, i am coming sir and i will relocation the connection. But he didn't come. Today some one called from customer care, he said there is no feasibility at my new house area. Why there said first there is feasibility.
        Why are you playing with cutomer. If you don't have that much capability, don't give the new connection to customer. If i apply for new connection for same location they ready to give new connection, but relocation is not possible. I diddn't see such type of game with operator.
        It is very shame to airtel as big company, they are not able provide relocation connection for 250 mts in metro city.

          Today morning when i was travelling in bus, my phone was picked up from my pocket, this happened some 2hours ago. Thus i would request you to block my sim.

            Airtel company recharge is not reliable because i had taken recharge with 399rs with ul validity is 84 days but my out going is stopped in 28 day.
            This type of fraud work is going on from your copmany each month so that it is not accepted and i can take action against you in consumer court bcoz even before this, it has happened to me.

                  I had recharged a data pack of ₹899 on 13th august on my number : [protected] which mentioned to provide 210gb of 4g data on 4g handset for 84 days. However to my surprise i found my data pack has been deactivated from yesterday midnight which is 11th september. Now i am facing hell lot of issues in accessing network thereby cannot do my daily work. This is really frustrating to face when i had paid the money for a plan and i am not getting the service. This needs to be resolved asap as i have lot of tasks to complete and now i m not able to do it due to airtel not being complaint or providing fraud plans which i cannot rely upon. Can this be expedited asap and fixed!!!

                  Offer showing validity 28 days but after recharge showing validity only 7 days and not providing the option to talk to the customer care executive.
                  I have been using airtel sim for last ten years but now it seems as if your services are not as they are was in before. We all use airtel numbers in our family but now we are facing daily network problems in our locality... So kindly sort it out if possible..

                    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.

                          Dear
                          I am currently using airtel postpaid connection number-[protected],
                          My data pack automatically stopped from 2.00 am, hence i am not able to use net connection.
                          I call costumer care they said there is some data pack issue and it will take 2 working days to resolve.
                          Why this kind of issue we will face, if we are paying bill on time,
                          Who will pay me that amount which is i am going to use for net connection with other sim/network.
                          Pls do needfull as your promise is you are the best network provider.
                          Thanks
                          Sandeep sharma

                            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!!!

                              I am mohit nagar is facing a lot of issues regarding the internet speed. 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.
