            Hi,

            It has been really sad to observe the worst ever services from airtel. I bought an airtel secure plan in the last couple of months

            I never have been careless in my handling of the phone, you can check that screen protector was installed on the phone. However, i was never aware that slipping of phone as to be some specific occasion until i heard that my claim has been rejected due to it got slipped in the crowded lift and some one put his leg on it and this was due to my carelessness.
            What a rubbish statement ever...

            May i request you to look into concern as after 10 days of rigorous follow up i could register my claim and after 10 days of picking the device, i have been told that claim is rejected. I have not taken this secure services from insurance provider and i don't want to hear their lame excuses. I am going to proceed with legal option if not taken my request seriously.

            Hoping to hearing from you soon.

            Airtel has deducted RS 99 for international roaming.
            1. I never asked for this service.
            2. I never made any calls nor did I use the internet nor did I send any sms

            Why do u deduct rs99 for no reason??

            +91-[protected]
            Please erase my mobile number details
            Airtel is cheating customers by offering Rs 399 recharge to get data and voice benefits for 84 days but not providing the offer for more than 28 days and just cheating the customers by saying its a technical problem...

Its shows that your data is fully used but i got recharge on 16 august but till today its not working. Calling is not happening properly. If i start my mobile data it starts deducting my balance. I am very annoyed with the service. Plz help me in solving this problem otherwise there will be only one option for me that is only to port my number to idea.

              I have waited for 4 weeks for a confirmation and still its not confirmed . Whenever I go to customer service in airtel office they give me fake promises of this was going to would be completed till now no action has been taken
              I just want to get the internet access on my handset one plus x which is a 4g handset. Recharge of 345 is going waste from past 10 days and no one is able to assist me at Dehradun even at the store.
              I have even got my sim changed to 4g from 3g but all in vain.

                  We have taken a family plan from Airtel where the primary holder's is 499 and child holder's is 299. Airtel executive misguided us by informing that we need to pay monthly only 700 Rs. But to our shock we got a bill amount of 1300 Plus Which is ridiculous.

                  We need a refund. We do not want to be cheated this way atleast from Airtel. We have been using this connection since 7 years. Kindly assist and reverse the amount.

                    I saw an offer of 5% cashback on first 4 recharges on airtel app & done 2 recharges of 295 rs in past 20 days but did not get any cashback yet. I called in customer care, he said there was no such offer, on request to talk to senior executive, he disconnected. Please look after this and take necessary action.

                          Since from last 2 weeks, i am a new user for airtel. Had a recharge of rs. 399 for unlimited 4g data & voice calling for 84 day.

                          When i was started to use it, from 1st day its giving not more than 150 kbps speed & also getting 2g/3g networks.

                          After the complaint, the customer care executive suggest that i have to wait till the 4g network was not published at your area.

                          Still now i had face the same issue at valsad, vadodara, & major are of gujarat's.

                          They are not ready to give my money back & not ready to extend my plan till the network was ready.

                          They suggest to first check on open network for the area available network & then we have to do recharge applicable on that, worst suggestion & no pre-notifications like this.

                          Worst ever.

                            In june 2017, i got a call from airtel regarding hello tune service. They offered me a package of 200 rs. For one year in which i can set 5 hello tune simultaneously and can change anytime for that period of one year without charging a single penny. I informed them that i am going to convert from postpaid to prepaid so i ain't interested. But they told me that it will not affected because of this, it will remain for one year irrespective of conversion so i opted the plan. But when i convert from postpaid to prepaid they stopped the service on the ground of conversion and they refused to help me in this matter.
                            Is that the way to serve your customer? I got nothing even after paying 200 rs plus service tax. They cheated me and none is interested in helping me.
                            It is how airtel lost its valuable customer and trust of its customer.

                              I had raised a complaint in june which was resolved (Look for details below) but the issue is showing up again.

                              !!! Amount due is ~13 lakhs again!!!

                              After calling the customer care, i got to know that duplicate bills have been generated owing to some issue with the gst implementation.

                              They have confirmed that the issue will be resolved by 10th august but the bill generated on 11th august shows the same amount due. I am tired of following up with airtel customer care.

                              This is really worrying me. I would like airtel to take immediate action.

                              — previous [resolved] complaint below —
                              Complaint raised on jul 10, 2017
                              “i called customer care and had activated international roaming in april 2017. I used wifi most of the time. I used to get messages that "free incoming calls, 500 mb data activated for no additional cost."
                              I have checked with airtel again when i went to us. I was told that my international roaming was activated and i should not be worried about anything.
                              In may i paid ~ rs. 9500 in june my bill has jumped to 13 lakhs rupees. This is serious matter. I do not even have savings of this sort!
                              I do not accept that this is authentic. I would like a detailed investigation in this matter.”

                                  I have been updating my data packs every month on airtel and you'll have been advertising on tv that the data usage balance will be carried forward every month even if not recharged within the last date.

                                  I have rechaged today and the data balance was not carried forward to the recharge done today. It showed zero balance. Can you please explain why has this happened...

                                    Actually i thought of porting my airtel number to idea and i messaged to 1900 and i got a code and after sometime i got a call from airtel customer care that they will give a special offer for 399. They promised me if i recharge with that 399 it will have a validity 84 days but i got a validity of 28 day. And i was trying to contact customer care and i was unable to talk to customer care executives and no response to the mail.

                                      I am having 4 postpaid connection of airtel and want to port them because of worst service of airtel. And they are not allowing me to port because of their technical issues and stop my data connection also.

                                      Worse service provider in telecom industry. There site is always having problem during payment and asking me to do payment on time and stop my data plan.

                                      Not advising customer about their issues. I was one of loyal customer with them having all my family numbers of airtel. You dnt value your customers, then we have much more option/ be sticked with arrogant customer care persons who doesnt have the sense how to solve customer complaints.
