    Sir, the mobile number which i have was non functioning when i tried to make a call on 7th september, on visit to your nolambur airtel office they told me that it is registered in name of someone else from kanchipuram. I have submitted my personnel details to airtel office annanagar, 3rd avenue, when i visited that office.
    I informed your office in nolambur about this issue. I was told to go and verify in that office. This office i found does not function now. I want to know why and how it is registered in someone else's name. What has happened to all our old documents which we submit to your office on our visits.

      Dear team airtel secure,
      Most respectfully i would like to share my experience with your team.
      I had purchased a insurance for my phone, samsung j7 prime from airtel secure, and incidentally when i was at my office my handset fall from the table and a little spot came on the edge (As you can see in the picture attached) but the handset was perfectly in working condition and touch was working, i was not willing to claim for insurance initially but on my friend advice i submitted the documents on airtel app, i had mentioned my true story of the incident that happened along with the pictures of the handset. After one week of submitting the claim i got the confirmation from airtel secure that the claim is accepted and there agent would come to pick the handset with in 20 days, but the agent didn't appear even after 25 days and when i complaint again they send there agent on the 28th day ie. 8-aug-2017 and took my hand set.
      I was waiting for my handset back, one fine day on 17th aug i got a message from airtel secure that your has been rejected, i was literally socked and called the customer service but they failed to give any information about it and asked me to wait till further notice, i had made numerous calls to customer service in the next four days but got the same answer that there is no information regarding rejection and at the end i got a message that my handset has been dispatched.
      Finally on 23rd august i received a courier at my office, i was not at my office at that time so the office boy received it and when i opened the box there is one more shock waiting for me, the display of my hand set was fully broken and when i tried to switch it on i failed to do so.
      I visited the airtel store and booked my complaint and also typed a mail to customer service but failed to get any response. Even after one week they are asking me to wait.
      Hope you would provide some solution to my problem.
      Thanks!!

            Hi, i have raise a broad band request and paid the amount 700 to agent on january 15 2017. As the broad band service was not feasible in my area for broadband connection i requested them to refund my amount. I am following this issue with customer care and then submit complain. But haven't got any response. I am also requesting to all the other users who are thinking to buy airtel broadband or 4g service (3g service is not good near mp nagar bhopal than why 4g) to not to buy any services from airtel and not to pay for new broadband connection as you will not get any refund amount after paying it.

                I submitted docs and followed process told by airtel to change my two postpaid no [protected] and [protected] to prepaid on 29th aug 2017 but no action taken since then. Each time customer care gave different excuses for this without intimating me. This is lack of service to a customer.in such a case a telecommunication co. Can reject my request again and again without giving feedback or sufficient reason. Kindly give all companies a guideline in this regard to save a customer from mental harassment.

                      After repeated reminders from airtel, yesterday in the early hours of morning 10.45 am, i went to local centre of airtel near fire brigade office at solan h. P. After walking on foot for three kilometers from my residence,
                      When i asked the lady at local outlet of airtel, told me to come again on monday as "the system was locked".
                      I was shocked to hear this as i am working in sbi, and can not find a time to visit that centre again and again for the same task.
                      This was not an attitude of a mobile outlet when there are so many other mobile operators to provide much better customer service, i have seen that private operators advertise their better customer care, but this incident shows that their attitude towards customer service is not better than govt. Agencies.

                        Though i am having data balance available in my account but i am surprised that my main account balange got deducted.
                        However airtel is making the advertisement that it is having the best network but for me although data is on still unable to surf sometimes.
                        I think the tag line should be like making people fool.

                                I have concern regarding my postpaid bill charges.

                                Why have I been charged extra Rs. 90, when I have not opted for any services ?

                                Lately, I have been noticing that I have received some SMS regarding activating services on my mobile number, while I have not requested for any.

                                Kindly remove the extra Rs 90 and update my bill amount ASAP.

                                        I want my postpaid connection to be converted into prepaid one.
                                        I visited airtel store (Infinity think tank branch, salt lake, sector 5, near sdf more, kolkata) on 8th and 9th sept, 2017. But on both day, service person of that branch told me that, the application/system/server for postpaid to prepaid is not working for the whole pan india and he won't be able to proceed with the request.

                                        My bill cycle will end on 10/10/2017. I don't want to pay any further bill amount. But due to airtel system problem, i will be forced to pay bill till the day its not getting processed.
