Dear sir,
I bought a Airtel Sim two weeks before.
It shows roaming symbol. I asked customer care they told this is Chennai sim card so it's shows roaming symbol. And they told can't change the circle.
I bought this sim in coimbatore. So please change my circle.
I can't share my data to other no.
Kindly change to Tamilnadu circle

    Hi team,

    I have recharged my number today twice.. However airtel has deducted money for 2 or 3 paid services which i never subscribed myself. I tried to call customer care at 121 however could never found an option to reach customer care executive.. Please refund my money ₹30 and ₹15 which u have deducted without my consent.. This is very frustrating since u have no right to deduct amount lime this.. Why the hell u do all such cheap and illegal things and thn give no option to speak with customer care... Just return my amount asap... U hv no # right on my money... I dn want to subscribe to ur nonsense services.

    Plz take action asap

        I am having airtel post paid number. On 24/8/17, one message came to my mobile stating that "modelmaniaw" is activated and rs 35 charged. If i want to deactivate message 'stop'. Immediately i gave sms to the given no 'stop'. Reply message came staying that my request is considered and they have deactivated modelmaniaw service. So far rs35 not refunded. When i enquired local airtel store, front desk assistants and store in charge expressed their no awareness of this service. I need the refund and this unauthorized service not to be repeated

          I have number [protected] of airtel number for my startup company. But i had to put the startup on hold so i was not using this number. I went to near airtel care center but they were reluctant to help even. My email id and other account get blocked as otp is not coming. Please resolve this problem. You are humbly requested to what need full. I shall be very thankful to you for that.

            Dear sir, i am writing this mail here hoping that you will look in to complaints and i hope you will sort it out.

            The problem is, i am facing continuous internet drop since 15th july 2017, most of the time i lodge the complaint. But this problem has not yet resolved on top of that airtel technicians /service engineers are making fun of me. Since 27th august 2017 to till day i dont have the internet. I have escalated this matter airtel managers (4 to 5 managers, vignesh, nirmal and mr. Khan etc etc) every one assured that they will sorty is out also but all gone in to waste. Hopefully you will look in to this matter and sort it out without any delay.

            Thanks & regards

              I am very disappointed by airtel prepaid service i have recharged on my prepaid airtel number [protected] on date 31/5/2017 of 149/-. I had a offer at *121*1# saying that a2a free calls and 28 gb 3g/4g data for 28 days @149 rs.in that offer it is also mentioned clearly that if you recharge today then you will get the same offer for 12 months. I've used that offer for 3 successive months but somehow after 3 months that offer has disappeared. I called to the customer care but they didn't solved my problem. I hope you will solve my problem. Else i am going to port my airtel number to another service provider.

              Since the bill amount is more than the usage including tax i dont want to continue postpaid connection. Kindly change my postpaid connection to prepaid connection at the earliest
              Airtel network or bill service is not mantained
              My Airtel mobile no is blocked kindly inform me why my no is blocked with in 24 hours other wise I will suit file against you in consumer forum my mobile no is [protected]

                    Airtel is showing me 14, 06, 249.80 rs of outstanding bill however my past bills are not more than[protected] rs. I called them bit they were bot able to justify this amount. This is a kind of mental harassment to customer and asking that please call after sometime.

                    For past several months i am facing this type of issues with airtel and infact that is why i ported on of my other number from airtel to jio. But this time it is amazingly ashtonishing.
                    Please help logging a complaint against airtel for giving me stress and mental harassment. Also wasting my time interacting wih there customer care.

                                You have promised that airtel network is faster than any network and covered more than 50% areas of india. I already made complaint on 24 august 2017 but no improvement in your services. There is no use for keeping your sim. Please make arrangement for keeping network always otherwise we have to surrender the sim of your company.
                                Thanking you,

                                  It's been more than 4 months since the set top box has been taken away and we were promised a refund of ₹1782 on my credit card which was used to purchase the connection.

                                  Last month airtel claimed via mail that amount was credited to my ccard on 31/5/[protected]@1847, which i denied.

                                  They asked me to mail them all statements till date to verify that amount not credited.
                                  In spite of doing so there is no reply from them. (Ref pics)

                                  I have made several calls to customer care to seek a reply and closure but no use.
                                  Latest open complaints in this regard are 64863035 raised by shubham and 64507119 raised by rubini.

                                  I am completely helpless in dealing with this and hence have decided to take below steps till issue is closed and i receive my refund.

                                  "my airtel broadband outstanding amount for this month is ₹3066. I have decided to paid them only ₹1284 as on date post deducting ₹1782 towards my digital tv refund. As customers are being held to ransom, i found this one way to get back to airtel as let them sort it out amongst their departments."

                                  Yesterday after 8 months of surrendering the TV connection I got my refund of ₹1782 in my ccard. I will now pay the Airtel broad band payments that I have been holding back due to this as my complaint is resolved. Thank you all!!!

                                  Airtel DTH team yet to respond and close the issue!!!

                                  Money yet to be credited to me.

                                  Now Airtel broadband says they have no role to play in this and if I don’t pay up ₹1782 that I am holding back from their billed amount, they will disconnect my connection.

                                  I am getting FINAL REMINDER mail from then every now and then.

                                  So a company can hold an individuals payment and keep mum on the same but a common citizen will be threatened and not entertained if he decides to hold back his legal amount from its sister concern!!!

                                  Requesting consumer complaint forum to step in and get it sorted ASAP.

                                  Thnx

                                    I'm using airtel from more than 2 years and now after upgrading to 4g i. E., lte i frequently facing the network issue in my internet calls and others. I'm being forced to use other carrier if you guys cannot provide me a good service then i'm bound to switch to other. Please do smth asap. It hurts my business work and irritated too. Even now also i'm having the same issue which won't allowing me to write any complaint or work. And when i called you guys to contact you and elaborate my problem your ivr taking more than 5 mins to get reach to you which also remained incomplete and here i'm now. If i would write such complaint to you inspite of my other work who else going to run my life damn it. I'm totally pissed off either make it correct soon or make it clear. And yeah charge some extra money in calling 198 so that the necessary calls you find and make easy to contact you directly we don't wanna waste or listen any offer there.
