            technical issue not resolved for 3 days even after escalation

            Address: 560060

            So called technical issue is not resolved for 3 days. Activated plan is for 10 days - international roaming which cost rs.1199. After that rs.99 got deducted and reason is rental charges for international network. After the plan activation, rs.290 got deducted and balance is zero. With zero balance we cannot use data and calls. Issue is not resolved for 3 days. Called for 6 times and got very irresponsible answer from senior people. Hopefully...

            This is just an information, not complaint

            Yesterday i had sent the following email to you :-

            To
            The manager, customer care, airtel.

            Ref : mobile no. [protected]
            Sub :

            Dear sir,

            I had ported my above mobile no. From idea (Bengal) to airtel (Telangana) on 8.8.17.

            On 9.8.17 i went to airtel showroom, bapuji nagar, bowenpally, hyderabad for recharging to have some “talktime”. I was told to pay rs. 144/- but i would not get any talk time out of this rs. 144. I had an argument but they said that the first user had to pay this rs. 144. I received local/std airtel calls + 2gb data on 4g handset with 4g sim and 1gb for others, validity 28 days, but no talktime.

            I am surprised. I do not agree to this. It cannot be. I presume it is cheating.
            Would you please clarify in this regard?
            Regards.
            -amal kumar bose
            Hyderabad 17.8.17

            The moment i pressed “submit”, i received a phone call from [protected] at 12:23 pm dtd 17.8.17, claimed to be airtel customer care man. He said that he had read the email. He wants to pay back me rs. 144/- right now. I astonished how one can read the content in one second. Any way after few minutes talk i did the mistake/ blunder. I gave him all my bank details and i was robbed rs. 12 + 19, 999 + 19, 999 + rs. 40, 010. I am totally responsible for it. I am not discussing about rs. 40, 010/-

            I would like to bring to your kind notice to see if your “customer care” hacked. Please check.
            It may be my email had been hacked.

            Your advice is solicited.

            Regards.

                      I use motorola mot g4 plus which is a 4g supported device. I recently recharged with inr 399/- pack which gives 1gb 3g/4g data/day for 70 days & unlimited local & std calling for 70 days. As soon as i activated this pack, my network quality dropped to worst. Now i cannot have a single call without call drop or mid - conversation distortion noise. Data speed is slower than 2g which takes ages to load even a simple google keyword searched.

                      Airtel is the worst network in mumbai & fraudster too. Before this particular pack the network was quite ok. However i accuse airtel that to provide us with the longer run and competitive packs against reliance jio, it switches us to the poorest coverage they afford.

                      I am highly disappointed in airtel. I am just keeping my patience high but once it is over i will definitely drag airtel in consumer court and will make them regret for their false commitments & malpractices.

                        I have a balance of about 412 and im not able to utilize this balance to activate a special recharge of 399. This is so disgusting that i have to waste another 399 for that special offer eventhough i have enough balance for it in my mainbalance . I hope you understand my problem and expecting it to be solved quickly

                          I am experiencing the worst network connectivity, network bar shows ok, but connection stops n comes. You all make promises to improve but you all are not improving anything. I need you all to come at my location and check the network i am dealing with. I called and emailed a lot but reply was "we will try to fix" and "they give a date to fix" but nothing is fixed. Its been a months i had this type of connection issues.

                            Inspite of repeatedly speaking to customer care of airtel i am not able to receive incoming calls on my number since last 3 days. Everytime customer care is saying that we are checking the problem but there is no resolution to my problem.

                            I am using airtel since almost last 10 yrs and expect some services from them.

                            I am working in a bank and have to deal with corporates and they are not able to reach me as my...

                              Yesterday i recharged for rs 345 pack which said local std calls free plus 1gb internet 4g. There is pack of lower amount and higher amounts both which give internet of 1gb per day. I thought its the same. But instead it gave 1gb for 28 days. Which is really a theft and deceit. They make hundreds of packs and sometimes eg, rs 293 gives some service and rs 294 gives a lot more than that in just 1 rs more. All these packs are misleading. A simple person like me lost her money just that i didn't opt for rs 349 pack in which they give local std calls free plus 1gb internet per day for 28 days. Isn't it misleading and making fool of consumers. If i can spend 345 i can spend 349 also but this word jargon fools us. Pls either refund my money or take rs 5 extra and change my pack.

                                An unwanted service in the name of videstore has been activated on my postpaid airtel no. arbitrarily and my attempts to deactivate it has been futile, this adds on unwanted charges to my monthly bill. Kindly act asap on the complain and let me know if airtel will reimburse my loss.

                                  Dear sir,
                                  When i go to advance rental pack on the website, after selecting for karnataka then there are two options sd and hd, once i select hd channel, it gives a big list of packages what you offer under "karnataka-hd" if i ask for "south my family silver hd" recharge, you tell me that in this pack youwill not get hd channels. Are you making the costumers fool. Or is it a method of cheating..

                                  And there is no detailed list of channels in advance rental pack link..
                                  The name given in monthly pack is entirly different from advance rental pack, then how can we find the list of channels in advance rental packs..

                                  The same i spoke cust. Care and nodal officer they are telling sorry..
                                  And this is not the solution, and i have complained the same to cust care many a time the same issue, but there is no use...

                                    Dear airtel (India's fastest network),

                                    About 1 month ago, i faced a problem relating to my data usage.
                                    My data balance (As per airtel app) - 5.9 gb
                                    My data balance (As per *121*114#) - 0 gb

                                    It took your team 5 working days to find out the problem but in vain. My billing cycle got renewed on the 6th day and i was allocated my monthly data of 8 gb + 6 gb (Unutilized data). Two days ago, my main data balance was exhausted and balance was:
                                    As per *121*114# -
                                    0.0 gb left out of 8 gb
                                    2.9 gb left out of 6 gb (Unutilized data)

                                    As per my airtel app -
                                    5.9 gb available

                                    But i was unable to use data.

                                    I called customer care several times but all in vain. Following are the reasons/explanations/solutions given by the customer care team:
                                    1. Restart your phone.
                                    2. Switch off your phone - take out sim card-switch it on - wait 30 seconds-switch it off-put the sim card-switch it back on.
                                    3. Change your sim card from the nearest airtel store.
                                    4. Network issue, you'll have to wait for 2 3 days till our team get back to you. [ i have to wait without internet connectivity because of the problem in your network. Great solution airtel]

                                    I have tried all of the above solutions multiple times (Also changed my sim card) but got no result.

                                    In am living in a metro city, where nearly every work is done through data connectivity and as we all know our india progressing towards a digital india. How can you provide such pathetic service in a customer focused industry?

                                    Here comes the problem for which i am writing this long story.
                                    Porting

                                    I decided to move on to other network and sent as message of
                                    Port [protected] to 1900. [no reply]
                                    Called customer care for this and they replied you'll have to wait for some time.

                                    I have sent multiple emails to the nodal officer and airtel customer care but no solution provided.

                                    Please airtel, please do not rip off your customers like this so that they may never come back to you. Please provide the unique porting code so that i may port my number.

                                    My mobile number is [protected].
