    To whom so ever it may concern

    This is to bring in your kind notice that it's been 5th week my number (+91-[protected]) is not working and i'm facing lot of issues because of this. I have been visiting one of your airtel store in rajouri garden since 5 weeks but not getting any solution from them. The executives there always say its it team issue not ours, and there is no way that i can connect to it team. They always say that they have forwarded the mail to them but not getting any reply from it team. Below is the complete case which happened:

    Step 1:

    I visited airtel store to convert my corporate plan to my family infinity plan. I have told executive there that i want to change my plan to my family infinity 499 plan, the told me that sir you are already using corporate plan so they first need to convert it to individual plan then only 499 infinity plan will be activated. I agreed, and then they have proceeded with the process. They have told me that it will take approximately 24 hours to get your plan changed. Next day got a message from airtel that my 499 infinity plan has been activated on my number, but since that message came my internet stopped working. I called airtel customer care on 121 and ask them for the problem, the executive over the call said that sir you number is under activation status that's why data is not working, they have taken my complaint (No.[protected] and asked me to wait for 24 hours. Next day after 24 hours, i called 121 again & asked for my complaint status, they again asked me to wait for 24 hours, this continued for 3 days. After not getting solution on phone from 121 i visited airtel store again and asked them about the issue, the executive over there said that it team and closed my old relationship number (That was associated with my corporate plan) but activated your new infinity plan on that relationship number, also they have activated a child plan also on with my number due to which data got mis-matched & it is not working. Then i asked them about the solution, they said this cannot be resolved as old relationship number is closed. So they suggested me to convert my postpaid number to prepaid for 1 week after that they will again convert it to postpaid. I agreed.

    Step 2:

    As mentioned in step 1 i agreed with the airtel store executive to convert my postpaid number to prepaid for 1 week. After this they have escalated y process of post to pre & my prepaid number got started in 2 days. I have properly used prepaid number for 1 week. Then the executive in airtel store processed the pre to post conversion request for which he has charged me 250 rs. & promised me that this 250 rs. Will be adjusted in my 2nd month bill. But when they converted my number again to postpaid my prepaid number signals are out & i have received postpaid signals after my address verification. I have then called 59059 for tele-verifcation. After successful verification i have completely lost the signals and it started showing no service on my phone, then i visited store again and asked for the issue, they replied that sir your number is again went under pending for activation for don't know what reason. Since then its been also 1 week that i have no service on my number.

    Step 3:

    After this i called 121 care they & launched a complaint against this (No.[protected] & waited for 24 hours, after 24 hours i called again then executive replied that sir you number is under disconnection. And asked me to visit airtel store again. I don't know why my number went for permanent disconnection without any request, without my concern, without my issue.

    Step 4:

    Airtel store executive recovered my disconnected number again today, i have completed all the activation process but after doing tele-verification my number again shows pending for activation status. Now, tell me what to do my number is not working from more than 5 weeks.

    Problems i'm facing because of these issues:

    1. Not able to use any mobile services since 5 weeks.
    2. Not able to use any banking operations.
    3. Not able to connect to anyone.
    4. Many more...

    Please help me bout this issue asap because i want my number back in working condition because it went under permanent disconnection without asking me and without notifying me. I don't know who have told you to disconnect my 12 years old number without any concern. I hope i will get asap support solution.

    Received another call from Mr. Deepak from Airtel, he asked about my adhaar card number, i have given him my adhaar number but he was not able to verify that. So, he said that he will pass it to concerned team & disconnected the call. I don't know how is that Golden Employee of AIRTEL that come and help me?

    Hi...
    Nowadays, Airtel network is not connecting properly i.e network, internet, and though we have signal, but we are not getting internet.Sometimes with signal facility also unable to connect.Most importantly a proper customer care number is not given.There should be a separate number for complaints.Many o[censored]s are tired o[censored]sing.If the problem won't be solved, we'll change to another network.Try to solve the issue as early as possible.

          I p. Saipavan with bearing airtel mobile number [protected] have recently ported to airtel in the month of march or april 2017. At first i recieved signal in roaming i. E in kerala but when i changed my location to goa i stopped recieving signals from airtel and they asked me to take a new sim from andhra itself. So i kept in "safe custody" to not to lose my number if it is not used for months. Last month i. E on julu 31'st i have taken a new sim from airtel store in vijayawada, it worked well till i crossed the border while returning to goa. I stopped recieving signal from 6th august as i just crossed the border of andhra pradesh. Here in goa again i have a new sim in local store nearby vasco and that new sim to stopped recieving signals as soon as i inserted it in my phone and it was showing emergency calls only. First i thought it was my sim tray problem but others sims from other networks are working in the same sim tray but not airtel. I have raised a complaint on this issue to airtel on 7th august 2017 but the actual complaint is registered from airtel 9th august and 11th august i got a response from airtel stating with a service request number 78555330 and our network team is working with the issue and it will be solved on or before 16th august 2017 but the issue is not yet solved and im not at all recieving any signals from airtel to my number and they are not even responding to my mails and asking me to wait.
          And my question is???
          1) will my isuue wil be solved or not??
          2) how many days i have to wait for recieving signal???.
          3) i dont want to loosed my number i. E [protected] since it was registered with all my bank accounts and all my contacts in my phone are used to this number.

          Please consider this issue at most as i was not able to recieve any signal from airtel apart from emergency calls from the past 10 days. Please do the needfull.

              Today (17/08/2017) i recharged my number with 399 rs.in app the validity was showing 84 days but i got only 28 days. I tried to call customer care by dialling 121 and 198 no executive attend my call only press this and press that. I searched customer care email address i failed to find it. I think they don't want to listen to our complaints or quarries.

                I had ported my mobile no. [protected] 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?

                      Hi sir.

                      My mobile number is [protected]. I did not get single network signal inside my flat. Out side my flat i am getting full signal.

                      I think network boosters required in my inside flat.

                      I have raised 25 complaints in last 2 months for same issue still my issue was not resolved.

                      Some of the complaint numbers are 76681887, 76795144, 76932215, 77150852, 77382803 and finally new ticket 78691462.
                      I am available in my flat today and every saturday and sunday.

                      Without my confirmation about network signal improvement don't close the complaint ticket.

                      Every technician is coming and improve the signal in my area not inside my flat.
                      Every time happening the same thing. Still i am getting no signal and mobile network is not available.

                      I think this time you will consider this mail as high priority and close the ticket with my confirmation.

                      My alternate number is [protected] and [protected].
                      Network boosters required in my inside flat.

                      I missed so many important calls with this reason. I have missed my office important calls so many times.
                      I have lost 5 lakhs rupees monetary transaction due to this stupid reason. Who will pay this amount?

                      Please find the attached mobile signal screenshot.

                      Please do the needful and give reply immediately

                      Solve the issue immediately

                      Many thanks in advance.

                            Can someone read the email i have sent to appellate. [protected]@in. Airtel.com, cc: [protected]@in. Airtel.com, [protected]@airtel.com and understand my concern?
                            Sub - re: # - international roaming - please stop calling

                            I have replaced my phone number with # for privacy purposes.

                            I have travelled to the usa and i had activated international roaming. For the first 10 days it worked and then disconnected for more than a week. I raised a complaint with customer care. Post multiple follow-ups it got resolved. Post fix, the customer care executives started calling me for confirmation via mobile. The timing they called was night in the usa, during i was asleep. Everyday they call me and my sleep got disturbed. But before i wake up and pick the call, it got disconnected. I sent email confirmation. But even after the phone call continued during my sleep. I raised concern again with customer care via call [protected]. But still it continued. I escalated to appellate. [protected]@in. Airtel.com. I had also asked for waiver on billing for the disconnected period. The authorities' responses and all only on billing but not the concern i insisted on sleep disturbance. I am not sure they read the emails properly and understand the real worry of the customers.

                                  But now its showing expire on 17aug2017 which is with in 20 days only and also network cells are fluctuating continuously 2-1, 1-0, 0-1, due to this i am facing worst situation to make and receive calls from my number, voice breaking is also another issue on this number, i have called so many times to airtel customer care but did not get any resolution.

                                    Rs399. 00 recharge done for 1gb 4g data for 84 days but wrongly done for 28 days with 1.25gb per day. Place correct.

                                    The service provider offered me the product of the airtel prepaid recharge for rs399. 00 with 1gb per day for 84 days.

                                    On my recharge of rs399. 00 it has done it with 28 days with 1.25gb for 4g.

                                    Also they have earlier charged wrongly to my family whom i have been sharing with my said mobile [protected].
                                    No action has been taken by the airtel.

                                        Address: Hoshiarpur, Punjab, 146105

                                        Company say free 4g sim upgrade, but airtel retaler charge Rs.50/- per sim for updation..
                                        Is it right or wrong.

                                        If it is right then stop this fake advertisement "free 4G sim upgrade on your nearest airtel retaler".

                                        Im waiting your reply..
