            I bought an airtel postpaid sim card[protected]u). I cancelled the order because your customer executive rahat khan ([protected]) provided me no information about the plan. I cleared them on the verification call that i don't want to use this sim, please don't activate it and provide me the refund and the documents i provided to the customer executive rahat khan. So, he texted me a contact number vishaĺ ([protected]) saying this guy will refund the amount and the documents you gave.. From last 2 weeks this guy is ignoring my every call by saying that it is not our job to provide you the refund as it is our companies job.. I am calling him every second day.. He is rude, non co - operative and ignorant.. I am fed up with this attitude of your company.. Now the executive rahat khan, who provided me the sim is also not responding.. I called him 6-7 times.. Tell me how can i get back my money and documents..

            I have been using Airtel since 7 years and haven't faced major issues. But since past 6-8 months I am facing call drops while city drives, poor network, suprise internet usage alerts etc in Bangalore.

            Which is better provider in Bangalore. I want to switch.

I started running on road so my phone dropped from my pocket.. But airtel rejected my claim saying that it's a negligence by your side.. Please don't waste your money.. They are fooling people by giving huge ads on tv..

But from 12th night 10 pm i'm not getting data connectivity to my mobile till today, i had called airtel customer care/nodal officer about 10-16 times regarding this issues but the technical team was not able to rectify my data connectivity problem, even they asked me to replace the sim with a new one and i followed it, still the data is not connecting in my 4g set. Even through mail i had lodged a complaint but airtel has failed to rectify this issue. Kindly help me to get my rs.399 from airtel since they are not able to provide me the service for which i paid.

                    I have taken this broadband connection as i travel extensively and wanted to keep a watch at home... I was very happy with my tata dongle, unfortunately that was not supporting my cameras and on great reviews got airtel broadband installed as my cousins in the same building were very happy. Unfortunately since the time i got it installed it never worked as claimed... Complaints were made as and when i am back in city, they were prompt and usually engineer visits within an hour, unfortunately was not able to resolve it for more than a couple of hours which can be tracked from the system till now i guess after approx. More than 10 complains, 2 theft (Fir copy can be provided for one) and 3 - 4 burned modems engineer was able to find the fault in the underground wiring which has been there from earlier. I have been making all my payments all this while, once this was shared i claimed for my previous bills to be waived off as no services were provided and refused the close the complaint. Further to this my connection has been now disconnected and the supervisor at the customer care centre turns around and says he cannot help much on it. After this sad experience and wrongly claimed best connectivity i want a refund in full.

                      (This is for your reference. Still now they didn't cancel.. Below its the letter i send complaint through email.)

                      Hello sir,

                      I have a problem in cancelation.
                      Last february i bought airtel 4g hotspot ([protected]) from our nearest showroom (Urapakkam).
                      On that time, hotspot plan is on 3 month 8gb plan. I received the call from the showroom member, they told me that you have an offer sir. I asked her plan is on same number but they said offer is on new number. Then i ask her what about the old number she said after activation of new number, tell me the old number after you pay, we will cancel that. So i paid and send the old number to them.

                      After i send the old number, i call and inform them, that paid and send the number to their phone number (July 4). After 3 week. Bill generated in old number ([protected]). I paid the bill for the new number ([protected]). I informed this to your showroom. But they said to call me tomorrow, come later... I visit and call them, but they are not reply properly.

                      After inform to cancel i throw that old sim away. Now i got the call from customer care, you have mislead new plan can activate only within old sim. They said i will cancel the new number and use your old number.

                      Now i throw that away, i can't find it? What about the payment..?

                      Airtel really worst in custumer support...

                      Now i have the pending payment of old number rs 1000 something is generated. With rs 500 something in new number..

                      Solve this issue soon as possible otherwise i will reject airtel operator.

                      By,

                        My name is sumit kumar, i use to live in raigarh chattisgarh. Back on 10th august i got a call from airtel executive asking me to port my number to airtel and told about the new offers, i got convinced and gave him the required documents and details on whatsapp, she asked me i want to port in postpaid or prepaid, i said prepaid.

                        After 2 days i got a call from raipur, he said he is going to verify my address as i applied for a airtel postpaid sim, i made him clear that i applied for prepaid.
                        I call back to the girl to whom i gave the details and briefed her that i got a call for address varification, she said "sir by mistake aapka postpaid me process ho gaya hai postpaid le lo"
                        I clearly denied and told her to cancel the process, she said ok as address varification nahi hua hai to process khud se cancel ho jayega.

                        And after 2 days i got msg from airtel that my request has been processed and my number will be ported, again i called her and she said sir process v ho gaya hai.. Sorry.

                        And my number got off!!!

                        I use to live in raigarh which is 250kms away from raipur, she never told me that she is calling from raipur,

                        After trying a lot i never got a chance to speak with airtel customer care as ivr gives lots of options!!

                        I wrote matter to facebook page but they are also not helping.
                        I'm attaching all of the screen shot, please help me out

                        You should also contact your dealer too,
                        He is a subdealer of airtel express store telibandha raipur, his office sub store is in "samta colony" raipur chattisgarh.

                          Hi
                          This is to inform you that i have been using the sim card (+91-[protected]) of your esteem company airtel for a very long time. As we all are aware of it that today scenario there is a lot of competition between the companies regarding their scheme and satisfaction of their customer. The bluff done by your company is that i have recharge my mobile with amounting rs 399 on 30th july 2017 and the scheme told to me was that i will be getting 84gb/day and local &std calls are unlimited for 84 days but on 27 august 2017 my balance got deducted by your company. When i have told the local authority regarding this problem they said that they had spoken to the zone office and check the same and as per them the same pack is activate on my number and practically it is not active on number my bal is getting deducted when i turn on my mobile data with airtel. So i request you please look into the matter and oblige me. I hope u must have heard that small drops of water make sea and ocean. You must be thinking at last i will leave your company and move to some other service provider but it will effect your company but not very huge loss but little effect will be there and the day will come it will affect the company a lot, if your company will keep doing like this. I hope you will listen to your customer and oblige him. One think more if the matter is not resolve here then i will compel to complaint about this to trai and the last option is consumer forum but i will fight for my right. Whether it take even years and years if i m honest and its my harden earn money by me i will get the justice.

                          Thanks & regards

                              I am getting repeated messages and phone call to register my mobile phone through biometrics to link it with aadhaar. I have already registered my phone number with my aadhaar card which is clearly mentioned therein. Under the circumstances, why should i go to nearest airtel centre to link my mobile with biometrics? Airtel has been known to provide the mobile numbers to various marketing agencies who frequently intrude our privacy. Under the recent supreme court judgment, right to privacy is my fundamental right. Hence i do not want airtel to register my biometrics for aadhaar link as i apprehend that my privacy may be in peril if i do. Since i have already registered my mobile number under aadhaar which is reflected in my aadhaar card, i do not think airtel can force under the name of government to register my mobile under aadhaar again. Please intervene.

                                  Hi, international roaming is not working in usa. The number is active for more than a year.in june 2017 the service was suspended and reactivated in july 2017. This is a post paid number, (My plan-199 - mh). When called, customer support asked to send email however no response to the email. Also, no effective answer from tech support team. The escalation process is not effective, i never got call back from them. It is frustrating that even after requested to escalate to sme to resolve the issue, there is no proper response.

                                    Hello,
                                    I was adding money in my airtel payment bank card i chose online banking and then once the payment was made it redirected me back to the application page and there is displayed transaction failed however they deducted money from my bank account and the money didn't get added to airtel account. Then i mailed them regarding this and received an automated reply stating that they will reply back in 1 working day and it has been more than that and still no response from them.
                                    My txn id[protected]
                                    Airtel payment bank number - [protected]
                                    Mobile number - [protected]
                                    Money deducted - rs. 399/-
                                    Case number received from [protected]@airtelmoney.com - 707159

                                    When i surfed the internet regarding this i found out people all around are facing this issue and airtel is not refunding their money. And another thing i would like to mention is that there is no way of contacting them through phone because there is no contact number for customer service. We can only send them mails regarding this to which they will reply only god knows when. This new application of airtel is total rubbish, such bugs should be removed before launching an application and they are not even taking responsibility for this instead they are blaming it on the other parties, such as in my case my bank, and in other complaints i read they were stating that paytm is has received money however not adding it to your paytm account, etc.
                                    And onto my bank statement it has clearly been printed that the money got deducted by airtel.
                                    Here is the proof
                                    This one is of the failed transaction - 29/08/2017 bil/[protected]/pgmib-/airt[protected]
                                    And then i tried it again and got successful transaction - 29/08/2017 bil/[protected]/pgmib-/airt[protected]
                                    Money deducted twice.

Also the service is activated without my consent and it is been repeated time to time which is harassing by airtel.
