Website: Network range not available.

Where there is my office area, there is very little network range in which the call does not even happen. Before that, I have written compliant in the name of the person. Now there is nothing that has happened to the complainant. Please request that you get the job as soon as possible Make arrangements for the network there.

    MY handset is not 4g compatible as per Airtel network so the plan i took for 84 day's (1gb free every day, unlimited calls) was cut short to 35 days.
    My phone is 4G - LTE but not as per their specification it is not.

    What should i do?
    I paid 500 for 35 days connection instead of 84 days! This is ridiculous!

    I want a solution to this as Airtel customer care does not bother provide any support to extend my plan to 84 days! I dont understand how difficult will it be to extend it for something that I am supposed it. Should i take this to Head of Airtel?

      My mobile 4g data speed very poor. complained service request number 78413172 . The customer teaam only calling and assuring that the issue will be fixed at the earliest but invain. Big false claims of open network and best 4g speed all totally false. There is nobody to properly respond to your calls when contacted.The customer team continuosly follows you trying to convince. Am going thru a mental agony and business affected since 10 days.

            Airtel fraudly activated 2 services on my mobile no. And claiming that i did it on the internet which i never did.
            Since i have a fully secured mobile device 3rd party access is not available and im 100% sure that i never even heard of these services.
            Services name:
            1. Celeb zone 35rs/week
            2. Celebrity wellness mall 5rs/day
            These services were activated on auto renewal basis since airtel sends alot of spam messages i ignored these messages.
            I requested a refund they denied it.
            Now i want refund of those services + value of my time.
            This is a complete fraud by a company i trusted over half a decade being a student its my responsibility to make it right.
            So im filing a consumer complaint since its within my right and due to things like these companies like airtel looting their own natives and its a complete fraud.

                              Hello Team

                              We are facing real time trouble with Airtel network here in Rewari (Hry) -123401.
                              My complete family is using Airtel network since long but from past 5-6 months since the battle with JIO begins, we are facing issue with Airtel network.
                              Most of the time network seems un-available ( its that much worst that helpdesk try to contact us & our phones comes unavailable) and if network is present the Voice quality is that poor that you cannot understand the voice over phone.
                              Similar case is with internet also, poor network connection while promising a whopping 2mbps speed it seems that it never move ahead than 2kbps. Downloading seems distance reality we even struggle to browse over internet (Such a shame that, I am using BSNL wifi to write this complain – not airtels mobile data)
                              We will be really thankful if you could sort this out, or let us know if its to move on and breakup with Airtel.

                                  I have recharged my airtel sim with 349 rs as i received a message. It was not mentioned that it is not applicable for roaming. I contacted the customer care services for 3 times. When i called for the third time they told me that that offer is not applicable for me since my mobile is on roaming. They told me to recharge with a roaming pack. I tied recharging it 3 times. My account was charged 3 times but there is no recharge. The amount is also not refunded. I demand in a refund of my amount of 93 rs. And also i want my problem of calls not getting connected resolved as soon as possible. I never expected such type of service from airtel.
