I recently changed my mobile network from bsnl to airtel via mnp. My bsnl sim was cut after 6 days and is showing no service yet there is no network on my airtel sim. On asking the retailer, he said the sim has been activated. I have tried every way possible, called the customer support, they said to wait for 24 hours and it's been 72 hours but there is still no network. Now they're saying to change the sim. What am i supposed to do?

        sim not activated even after 34 hours

        I had lost my phone and immediately blocked my airtel sim card. I went to airtel store on saturday 2nd september 2017, and took a new sim card by showing my aadhar card. I was promised that line would be activated by 4 hours. When i inserted the sim after 5 hours, it was showing sim card registration failure. On contacting customer care, i was informed nothing can be done i need to walk in at relationship center from i bought the card needs....

              I m a woman. On 2 nd august's noon my brother in law died and all family members were taking him to village, i planned to go next day due to health problem and same midnight around 2 am of 3 august 2017 (It was same day but date changed after12 am) i was alone in my home and suddenly i was not able to call or msg anyone, (Due to airtel service provider who stops my accesibility at mid night), being scared i rushed to my neighbor, they made recharge of 349 rs (28 days validity), wen i come back to my home it shows "transaction failed" also i was not able to call anyone. As i was alone i was again scared then i started crying being helpless i went back to my neighbor and i called my husband from neighborhood's mobile that i m facing this issue. He was travelling with the dead body and around 3:30 he recharged again, soon after i got two different messages of conformation that
              "the transactions are successfully done."
              I called them and request them to refund but they denied and told me that they will combine both recharges and give me all the facility for 56 days but after 28 days they cut my internet and told me that they wont help me anymore.
              This is truely cheating, please help and refund my one transaction amount rs 349
              I m very honest at my point they cheated me also they left me into a very troublesome and helpless situation in the midnight without any intimation of cutting services and are cheating indian public, they must send an intimation message to every citizen of india that kindly recharge today we are going to cut your services why dont they have any software that automatically cancel one transaction out of two exactly same recharges. I can write and complain but what about other poor people who lives in village and are facing the same issue. Also requesting indian government that please dont allow telecom sector the cut services at midnight so that if a woman or anyone is alone at home or anywhere, they get all the accessibility to call and msg. They can cut services at noon 12 pm so that we can go to a shop and dont hesitate to ask for help in a day time rather than midnight.
              I hope you understand and resolve my request. Thank you

                    My broadband services are not working from last 2-3 weeks. Customer care is not responding. They are making false promises and not resolving the problem. Not resolving the problem. Daily they are giving new deadlines. Not giving any eta to resolve the problem.
                    Technical guy is not receiving the phone. Facing lot of difficulties because of that. Pathetic customer care response.

                        i have been trying to port into other network, but no unique code is being sent out to me.
                        4g is as bad as 2g
                        fake offers been given
                        many users being declined of the basic offers.
                        customer service very poor and they speak such a poor english.
                        even the call to customer support was breaking in between, what else can you expect.

                              I have airtel 4g enabled sim and handset. I have recharged 648 rs on 3 august 2017.in begaining i have get good speed but now more than fifteen days the speed is worst then 2g.
                              My money is getting whaste. Please resolve the network issue otherwise give me my money back. Airtel company is making fraud to us. If they can not provide proper speed then why they give us such schemes.

                              If this problem not resolved i am going to consumer court for further

                                Hi,

                                This is to raise a complaint against the accidental insurance for mobile phone provided by airtel (Product name - airtel secure) with the third party one assist. I had enrolled for the airtel secure plan with my mobile services provider airtel for a monthly payment of rs. 79 toward the accidental damage coverage of my cell phone.

                                On 13th aug, i got my iphone broken due to an accident. On same day i contacted airtel customer care and raised a claim with all the documents he mentioned.
                                After that the real problem starts, i was constantly contacting airtel customer cars for the updates in status. I raise a complaint, they closed it by saying its in process.

                                Today, after 21 days, i have no update what is the status of the claim.

                                I think both airtel and one assist is just trying to make fool to the customers.

                                I have no option left but to raise a complain against them.

                                Please do the needful

                                    My no is [protected] and already logged complain regarding this with customer care from last2 months but no resolve from network team. They always give plea that we are forward your requests again and network team will call you but the statement is totally bogus. What kind of service is airtel providing. Also airtel app is showing cashback offers but when you get recharge from there they say no such offers exist by mistake showing there.. Airtel dish connection deduct amount by saying free offer. What is going on i am going to close my airtel plan n will never use again. If airtel can't resolve service of customers then close your network it's irritating us.
