      Recently i shifted from kolkata to hyderabad. During travelling i was facing problem to call people. But i thought that maybe its general network issue. After reaching hyderabad i was trying to call people but unable to do so. It has been one week still i can't do it. I have unlimited calls on my number. And 1gb/day. The data a is working properly. Only problem is the outgoing call. Incoming calls are also facing no problem. There is no airtel customer care service provider nearby. How to resolve this? What is the problem? Please help me.

      I lost my phone yesterday morning in trichy. So i want to block that sim and want the same number. My number is [protected].
      I was recently issued a 4g SIM card. After inserting SIM, network signal is not coming. I approached customer care service but there is no solution. I have been contacting since 2 days
      Respected Sir / Madam,
      My AIRTEL PREPAID SIM CARD is BLOCKED from LAST ONE DAY .
      Handset shows SIM CARD REJECTED .
      My mobile no:[protected]
      State:TAMILNADU
      Country:INDIA.
      I ported from Airtel Punjab to Airtel Delhi region. My old SIM got deactivated and my new SIM is still not activated. I tried calling up airtel customer service @121 but the IVR doesnt have any option to talk to a customer care executive. Pathetic. Callous attitude.

          When i had decided to port to another network, airtel called and gave me a 349 plan for 40gb data booster. Ever since, my internet has not been working (Been a week) despite making repeated complaints to their supervisors. I requested them to put me back on my previous 1199 plan and they couldnt even do that stating reasons such as server being down, pendency issues etc. Highly idiotic staff, zero follow up. Going to port out all my 12 airtel numbers.
          So disappointed. Supervisors like ravi mishra, sagar, etc made false promises to fix it within 24-48 hours. Been 7 days and no resolution. Unprofessional and irresponsible at their best.

Money from account is deducted and recharge successful confirmation also got but till now my mobile number is not recharged. No response from them, when called to toll free number and asking me to contact your bank as their is no mistake from their side. Too irresponsible answer from their side.

              We took new sim on 13th august 2017 from vikas marg airtel store and submitted all forms. When we received no message or response, we contacted customer care they told us we need to submit all documents again. We posted to dot twitter page and after that only airtel responded. They said you have not submitted docs. We asked them to check their store cctv and then they said ok they found the docs. We will be given new sim and that will be activated in 24 hours. 3 days later even that is not activated. Pathetic service by airtel. Because i moved from corporate to personal transition i could not have even chosen any other operator. But pathetic service from airtel in all areas. From store to customer care to activation of services.

                  Since january 2017 onwards by broadband billling increased largely. We do not know to talak with a humanbeing other than computer ivr. For the fear of disconnection, service interuption we have paid the amount. During this time i was sick and not able to move. When traveling posssibile i went to the kochi airtel office and registered a complaint no[protected].

                  Broadband line [protected] was subscribed from june 2011. Since january 2017 my broadband bill was increased enormously. For my dismay i do not know the reason, but i would like to know.. I have paid the amount because of the fear of disconnection and i was sick and not able to stepin your customer centre.. On june 16 line disconnected and july 16th i have paid final bill rs 6600 saying that to get waiver of previous bill have to pay dues rs 6600.

                  The amount charged since 2017 is

                  21 april rs 6000
                  23 april rs11500
                  19 july rs 6600
                  Dues 3886

                  Total rs 27986 for six months so per month 4664.

                  Before january the bill was only 3200/month there was an increase of average over 1450. I would like know why this increase because i am quite sure that the usage is not increased and you did not mention any tarif change also.
                  This is to inform you that our goverment is with the coorporate and corporate got courage to loot people.

                    Hi,

                    I have ported [protected] from Airtel UP East to Airtel MP. I had done it by visiting an airtel store and getting the number ported online using my thumb impression. I had submitted all the necessary documents along with Rs 300.

                    Last night, my earlier sim's network vanished. I inserted new sim (no.[protected]U) today morning at around 07:00 AM. Thereafter I dialled 59059 as instructed from Airtel. I received a message that the settings have been done and there is a need to restart the phone. After restarting, the network of new sim vanished. It has been more than 8 hours now and there is still no network.

                    In the meantime, I called Airtel's extremely insensitive customer service guys by borrowing someone else' airtel number. Airtel's customer care executives are asking me to wait for two days. They are talking as if I have committed a huge mistake by calling them. My experience of talking to those customer care executives today has been more pathetic than my problem per se.

                    It needs to be understood that my phone number is not working and I am very much dependent upon the same. I can not communicate to anyone and this has caused a lot of damages to me in last 15 hours

                    Had this been known to me, I would have ported to other service providers but not Airtel, who very brazenly were waiting for me to lodge complaints to resolve the issue and asking me to wait for 2 days from the time of complaints.

                    I am highly disappointed with Airtel's service, resolution to the problems I am facing and by their representatives who are putting all the efforts to annoy customers.

                    I also talked to the airtel store, I had visited to port my number, but they also turned out to be in the same league as of your customer care.

                    I will also highlight this issue on every possible forums.

                    Thank you for being such a pain airtel.

                      I have 2 networks. Unfortunately i take idea network to use the internet. Because of the low coverage of airtel network.in the first of this month i recharge my airtel network to enjoy the 'the biggest network of india' my bad luck airtel recharge is a trap. I can't use those things in my phone. And the customer executive behave really like bad and helpless. I hope a response from here. May be there is no favour response from this network. I would like to contact with trai. With all expectations still i am waiting for a good future experience with a'irtel'...

                        I am using airtel 4g sim in 4g handset (Moto g4) but every time whenever i use internet it fluctuate the network with 3g so much as i recharged with 399 plan but didn't get the speed of 4g for 1gb daily usage as mentioned. I have so much problem with this network. I even get the speed as 10kbps. What is this nonsense.
                        I am using airtel sim in sim1 slot.
                        I am not using any other sim in sim2 slot.

                          My airtel broadband connection did not work on 6-7, 13-15 and on 18th of august a service engineer visited but the connection worked only for an hour after which it is not working till date. When i called the customer care they asked me call after 2 hours then they will take my complain. No body at the company is bothered to take up the call or get my connection working.in the month of august i am without internet for 9 days. I mailed my request to them but haven't received any reply from them. I am attaching my copy of my email send and i haven't received any confirmation from them in this regard.

                          Connection details: airtel broadband account no: [protected]

                          This is the mail i sent to them.

                          Dear sir/ ma'am,
                          I am an airtel broadband user for almost a year now and the the service quality has deteorated in the past month. My connection did not work from 6-7 then again on 12-15 and again on 17th. I made a complain a service engineer came it became functional for just an hour and since then my connection is not working. It's just 20th today and i have been without internet for 9 days in this month. I am fed up with your services you cannot provide me with proper internet connection for a single week. I called to make a complain today and they told me they cannot take my complain today. What am i supposed to do? Please can you tell me. I am regretting buying airtel connection. I pay you more than 1000 rs and you people cannot provide me working internet connection and forget about the speed. I bought a new modem for better speed but it is useless. Now i am asking people not to buy airtel because the service is so bad. Please provide me with a solution otherwise i will have to think about changing it because i am paying you to provide me internet. And i will not be making payment for the 9 days it was not working. Just provide me with a date when my problem will be resolved otherwise i will have to take some drastic action.

                            I biught the airtel secure plan from airtel to keep my device covered.

                            I have kept my phone on the referigerator for charging. Phone ranged many times and dur to vibration it fell down from the referigerator and diaplay got affected.

                            Now the airtel says that claim is rejected because it eas negligence at your end. I want to know what does the negligence means. That means human should not keep the phone above ground level while charging, otherwise you are negligent.

                            Its a smart way of earning from the customer. You cover only accidents that happens without negligence. I do not understand how the accident will happen if you are not negligent. Whats the meaning of the accidental damage insurance?

                            I am surely gone take it to legal proceeding and let airtel prove in the court that keeping phone on referigerator for charging was negligence o[censored]ser and user should have been in front of the phone for one hour till the mobile is nit fully charged.

                                Hi,

                                My 4g dongle speed is very low. It is showing 0.4 mbps on speedtest.net whereas airtel claim it to be 20-50mbps. I am a it professional and using dongle for my official work but nowadays it has become very pathatic. I am not able to do a conference call or skype call also. It is affecting my work badly.

                                I had raised a compliant also but there is no improvement at all.

                                Please help to rectify the problem asap.

                                Dongle no. Is [protected]

                                Thank you.

When i called to customer care they gave me ans that company didn't send any confirmation messages to customer. Executive talked very rudely. I'm very disappointed with this kind of airtel services. They are not ready to take any complaints against any of this.

                                        I have recharge 399/- plan in airtel (In which plan - 70 days 1gb per day 4g data and unlimited voice call for local+std). But airtel company are fraud. They did not provide me genuine 1gb data per day. Why your are providing fraud plan for all customers. Kindly give me daily usage internet data logs like jio company.
                                        If i call their customer care for talking airtel customer care executive, disconnect my call. Your customer care number also fake.

                                        Airtel's 1 GB/ day scheme is a fraud. Daily quota of 1 GB / Data is getting exhausted within very short time of internet browsing or mail checking. Also, they removed the data balance checking option from my airtel account in which data consumption / availability details was previously available. I called Airtel to complain about it. They listen to me, but no action. People know, how much 1 GB data is.
