    I have been using my airtel number for the past 8 years and since a year or more, i cannot send text messages and this is extremely irritating and may cause a problem in case of an emergency. Kindly look into this asap as sms is a basic necessity for an individual. I have tried multiple settings on my phone and still it is the same. I even got a new sim thinking that the sms service will work, but it did not and the service center executives have zero knowledge about anything. Airtel customer care is never reachable. Poor service high rates. Extremely dissatisfied and disappointed with airtel.

        I had purchased a fancy number from an airtel dealer payed 1500 rupees.
        The number is activated but there is no network at all.
        I have been following up with that guy, who gave me sim, he has been saying me the sim has been activated but there is no network at all. And one guy abused me like anything using such an ugly language.

        I dont understand why airtel is being poor in providing customer services. Customers are paying money for you guys to provide best services, we pay you money to serve us better.

        Airtel is not proceeding faster in terms of network issues and complaints. As being the biggest network of india, airtel is losing its credibiltiy thats y ppl are opting for new netowrks.
        I have raised many complaints regarding the network issues to the cc but not yet resolved.

        Somebody please help me.

                    Dear sir/madam
                    Myself pardeep kumar with consumer mobile no [protected] of airtel company. I recharged my acc no with rs. 349 and got 28 days 3g speed data limited 1gb/day.

                    1-but the speed they mentioned was not provided ever.
                    2- the quality was never good
                    3- connection breakdown is the biggest issue
                    4 - costumer care support is not satisfying anything, just speech lie continuous.

                    Biggest fraud of robbery

                    I had paid money for 28 days
                    But the airtel company didn't provided internet services on these date:-

                    29 the half day

                    Without providing a data of internet the company charged money.

                    Please take a suitable action on my complaint.

                        I was in china for from 2 july to 28 july. I have taken the china plan from airtel 3999 rs on 1 july this plan gives 5 gb of data free incoming call unlimited and 500 minutes of china calling and india calling free.

                        I had exceeded my data usage and so as advised airtel personal told me you need to take the another plan if i want use the data so i have taken there 10 days china plan on 22 july this gives 3 gb of data free, unlimited incoming and 300 minutes og china and india calling free.

                        When the bill was generated till 22 nd of june i was surprise to see it was 21500 +.
                        I called airtel they said the bill is visible in my airtel app but it is not generated yer so we can not do anything once bill will generate after 2 days we can see.

                        I called after 2 days they said bill is generated but after bill it generated it takes 48 hours to open the bill.

                        I called them after 4 days they said the data calculation come from china so we still not have we will send you itemised bill after that on email and call you

                        After that for 1 month i calling them 5 time each time i was not given itemised bill nor any action and justification of wrong bill all the 5 times i told them i want to call to your supervisor each time they said supervisor is not on the floor he will call you after 30 minutes and supervisor never called.

                        Then i have suddenly got the bill revised to 18200 + that was wrong but atleast as per there actual data calculation.

                        But there data calculation itself is wrong. They said i have used 8 gb of data between 2 july and 21 july. My mobile show me 13 gb from 1 july to 31 july. On 29 when i was in india i used the data much as i have 50 gb of free data in india i had thats why

                        Billing they calculated for for 22 july bill

                        9000 rs extra data usage
                        3999 rs 30 days china plan
                        2999 rs 20 days china plan
                        1100 + extra call
                        600 base fare
                        3300 tax

                        After wavier they given me 18200 rs bill
                        9000 rs extra data usage
                        3999 rs 30 days china plan
                        2999 rs 20 days china plan
                        1100 + extra call
                        600 base fare

                        They wavedoff tax. I said howcould it be 3300 rs tax. Whether they can tax me for amount paid to there china counterpart
                        Also how could they remove tax. T

                        That means they have charge tax wrongly

                        And now they are saying we have done the enough because you were our customer for very long.

                        Something you charge wrongly and remove is it a favour or crime i am not sure

                        Also still data they have still not done any rectification

                        Also till date i have not yet got the itemized bill

                        All this calculation i have done is what they have told me today after 1.5 month followup

                        Also now unbilled amount it is showing 5000 rs in my airtel app.
                        Again today[protected] when finally supervisor called me i informed her after that it suddenly became na (Not available)

                        I request you to please help me and do the needfull

                          Worst service from one of your channel partner. It has been a month i paid for an activation fee and still, my number has not been ported.

                          I have requested them a lot and have shared all the required information. Now, the situation is when i call them they straight away disconnect my call.

                          Please look into the matter and resolve this issue. Please call me immediately.

                          Channel partner person name is rajbeer and his no is [protected]

                          It's been highly frustrating.

                              Hi team,

                              I have done wrong recharge for mobile no [protected] (Through icici net banking) (Just 1 hour back).
                              I have done special recharge of rs. 348 instead of rs.349. Kindly change the recharge pack from rs.348 to rs.349 to the above mobile no.

                              Please find the package details.

                              ₹348
                              Talk time: 0
                              Validity: 28 days
                              Unlimited local +std airtel to airtel mobile calls with 1gb 3g/4g data for 28 days

                              ₹349

                              Validity: 28 days
                              Unlimited local+std all calls (T&c apply) + 1gb data for 4g hs+4g sim, get 1gb/day

                              Because i need unlimited calls for all mobile calls not only airtel. Kindly do the needful as soon as possible.

                                    One of representative collected my phone for accidental repair damage under insurance plan on 29th august 2017 and a day before i received a mail stating that claim has been rejected on account of late intimation of incident. I have still submitted my phone in thought of might be after my conversation on call they have agreed for ignoring the late intimation. On 29th when i called them they told claim has been rejected and we will give your phone back with in 48 hours but till today it has not been returned back. Today on 1st september, i again called customer care, and today also they told me that it will take 48 hours to return back your phone.
