I have a prepaid airtel number [protected] for which i want to generate upc code for mobile number portability but after sending several msg for the same airtel is not giving me upc. Everytime i send the msg to get a the upc they charge me msg charge but not giving the code. This is seems to be that airtel is cheating their own customer and restrict them to opt out from airtel by not providing upc. My alternate mobile number is [protected]

    I have seen benefit of 1GB data with recharge of 65 rupees in *121# .
    But I got 250mb data only. I called customer care, and asked about this. They said they vl update by 2 days. So in this two days, I should recharge with one more pack if I need data. This is very worst thing worst airtel software, worst way of managing it. TRAI should take action against this kind of things

          I have an Airtel postpaid sim I m using it from past 3 years.

          Day before yesterday on 13 aug 2017 around 0006hrs my sim (no [protected]) suddenly lost network connectivity. I reinserted the sim but still no luck. I tried the sim in different handset still no network, while I tried different Airtel sim ant that was working, so there is no issue with my phone or network. I even tried selecting network in manual mode and it was showing all other networks other than Airtel.

          I have lodged the complain at customer care but my query was not resolved.

          All my communication is with this sim only and OTPs also.

          Kindly resolve my issue ASAP

          Thanks and regards
          Jaswant Saini

When I called to customer care they just raised a qurey and said with in half hour you 4G service is going to be active, same thing customer care tell like this when I called them, I call them two or thrice on 12 august, at last in the evening 5:30 pm they have raised ticket for my request and they said that maximum till 14 August before 8pm you will get 4G service. But still my 4G service is not yet active. When again I reached to customer care again they are asking me more 24 hours to resolve.for first day I am not getting proper internet not able browse the site . Now I am totally disappointed with Airtel service. I don't know when my 4G service is going to active, my three days is wasted and I don't know again how many days Airtel customer care will waste to resolve this issue. I just want 4G service in my sim. Waiting for that.

                        I have an iphone6. Got an upgraded airtel 4g sim today. After the previous sim showed no service i inserted the new sim. It had signals but an error message kept showing up saying cannot set up the sim card. tried restarting the phone but now it shows no service. I am left with no working connection. Is there a way to get back to the previous settings or get this new sim started? Immediate help required.

                          I have airtel app on my cell and on that 399 plan as unlimited calls 84gb data. I clicked for seeing terms and conditions which they don't show and on clicking directly mpin was asked and on entering mpin my balance got recharge without showing t& c. I called up customer care who rudely tells me that its not unlimited calls but 3000 min for 28d. Y is it not mentioned in scheme on app & tc not shown when you click on it... This is fraud as the app should have mentioned details of the scheme and falsely on show it as unlimited... So disappointed and angry with airtel

Tblr 7331134 dated 25.04.2017 and paid three month advance rent rs 2584/- but due to some technical reason they couldnot gave connection. As i had paid in advance was expecting a refund for which i contacted the persone who came to collect the payment cheque, but he is not responding me proprely and even some times dont even attend the call. I havent recevied a refund till date. So i am complaining here in consumer forum. I hope now you had understant the matter and will look after it and help me to get back my money from the said company..

                                I was a customer of idea network. From the suggestion o[censored]r employe i changed to airtel network he told me that in this plan (For ttd employees) i would get 1gb/day but i have got only 8 gb/month. The plan 449 seemed to be best for me so i requested airtel store employebto convert my postpaid service to prepaid service but they said that there is a time limit of 3 months. I dont know what is the necessity of keeping this time limit please resolve this issue as soon as possible.

                                  Dear Sir,

                                  My name is sahil and i am new airtel postpaid user from last 1 week. First off all i want to mention that last week me port this no.[protected] from vodafone to airtel postpaid at that time your service provider gimme wrong plan details and also send me email in writing about plan details that all are fake. Before two days i talk with customer care and they said me that there is no such type of plan. From last night really m facing alot of problem regarding calls..
                                  No one can call me or either i m not able to call any one. Really i m very un happy to see this type of service by airtel. Now i m going to again port my all no. Back to voda. I m very disappointed from airtel network and never ever recommend to any one for airtel.

                                        My bill for a month is not generated. I called up 198 so many times but all they do is keep me on hold and assure that it will be generated in next 48-72 hours. Since my plan has fixed Minutes, they have been adding my extra minutes beyond my billing cycle to the previous cycle only. the supervisors also seem unresponsive. Even after putting my call on hold for a long time, my problem is not addressed by the professionals.
