Airtel Complaints & Reviews

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.

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.

I have done a recharge of rs500 a month ago on my number [protected]. My balance got deducted with rs35 on every seventh day. I got to know this when i recently called someone and saw my balance to be 275rs. Airtel have deducted rs225 from my mobile for a subscription of games club which i didn't even subscribe. I called customer care where i talked to the senior executive and he told me now no money will be deducted as no subscriptions will be done on your number sorry for your lose. I don't need sorry i need my 225rs back as i didn't do anything. For no reason you cannot deduct money and then say sorry. I need my money back please help me out with this.

Today, (14.09.2017) i had been to air tel, anna nagar, chennai branch customer care centre near blue star and santhosh store. The staff i think by name mr. Vignesh and ms. Tamil selvi in the centre are chatting without bothering about the customer. It is not known the staff are taking too much time to attend the customer. One more lady staff in the office had not attended any of the customer and always engaged in her mobile. It is requested to review the camera above thier and appropriate action may be taken to avoid the same in future.

I had recently applied for a port from airtel to idea. The representative from airtel called me to ask the reason for port. I told about the network problem in my area. The representative assured that my network will be excellent soon and requested me to stay in airtel and appealed me to recharge. I accepted to stay with airtel and did a recharge of 300 rupees as full talk time.
But the next day my network was cut off. When enquired with sim dealer i got to know that i have been ported to idea.
Is this what is the reward for trusting airtel?
I request airtel to refund my 300 rupees to my same paytm number.

Hello my no. is [protected]. I lost my sim and once I got a new one, I'm not able to receive any messages without which obviously I'm not able to receive the otp for various transactions. I'm a long time customer to airtel and I expect to be treated with some diligence and not be fuddled around with minor issues like this which is ruining my work.

Sir, my customer id is [protected] and on 03 sep 2017 i made a recharge of rs 5500/-through my paytm wallet on seeing your advertisement of getting all channels including hd channels on my tv for a duration of one year. However the channels were not activated and after repeated complaints an airtel representative visited my residence on 07 sep 2017. This person's name was nikhil and he seemed to be a novice, after giving flimsy excuses, he assured me that the channels would get activated within 24 hours. This however never materialized and since then we have been making repeated telephonic complaints but on deaf ears. I am therefore addressing this problem to consumer complaints with the hope that remedial measures are taken forthwith and i start getting all channels including hd channels for a period of one year as has been quoted in your advertisement and for which i have already made payments to airtel. I shall expect a prompt action please. Thanking you... Colonel ravi shah.

Dear airtel,

My mobile number is [protected]. My wife was using this number. She lost the mobile 3 months back so i blocked my sim card by calling the airtel customer care.

Yesterday i went to an airtel store located in perambur (No 198, paper mills road, perambur, chennai - 600011, near venus bus stand). They gave me a new sim with the same mobile number ([protected]) for rs.25 and they said that the sim card will be activated after 6 hours. But till now the sim card has not been activated and when i called the customer care, they told the details have not been uploaded. But i gave my aadhar card proof for the sim. This clearly shows the lethargic work of the airtel team in the perambur branch. So, kindly help me in activating my mobile number.

Many thanks,
Aravind k

Dear sir,

It is a worst commitment from airtel to get your mobile secure through airtel secure plan.
I covered my mobile through airtel secure and my mobile was damaged on 02.09.17, i intimated the same on 03.09.17 but even after the rigorous follow up, still i have not received any satisfactory reply even after 11 days. My phone is also not picked yet.

I have given almost 25-30 calls to airtel and one assist but noone is responding on this.

Now i feel that how can a service provider can make the people fool to commit these type of services.

Pathetic.. I am not closing this issue here and taking a legal action against the company to give false commitments to their consumer.
