Address:Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, 500032

Even after following up so many times, they don't care to reply to my emails. This is the worst customer support i have ever seen.
I don't...

untrustable network / service

Address:Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600091
Website:www.airtel.in/forme/home/needhelp?natureOfRequirement=Complaint&referenceNumber=PR080700609

One fine day your sim card got deactivated for no reason. When i checked with the local store they said it could be a sim fault (In a lethargic way). I asked them the procedures but they denied to help me out since the sim was under my wife name. Hence i gave my marriage certificate since my wife is in hospital for delivery. However, this sim has access to all my bank accounts and office vpn. Then a gentlemen helped me with a new sim to activate....

airtel secure scam fraud

Address:New Delhi, Delhi

I got myself registered for the airtel secure plan after they advertised it so much in the t. V.
They claim to provide accidental damage protection.
Now my claim was rejected because they say the insuree was not careful enough.
Now if a person by mistake sits on his phone which was on bed, why isn't it being considered as an accident.
I will suggest people to be careful of this scam of insurance....
