      Hi, i have made a recharge of rs 399 on airtel website for the number [protected]. The offer is unlimited voice calls and 1gb/day internet for 84 days. However, i have only got 28 days of 1.25 gb per day (As per my account on myairtel app).

      Please either refund the amount or give me the calls as per the offer!

      The cell number is [protected]. Please investigate, as this is not the first time airtel is robbing its customers. (A while back i was contacted by some bad mouthing lawyers on behalf of airtel from delhi wanting me to pay rs 1000 for internet, which i have not used.)

      Regards,
      Aditya challa.

          Sir, i am a customer of airtel postpaid with number [protected].
          I am presently using your 499/- per month plan since last 4 months, but i never got bill of 499/-, it is always above that and i am paying that extra amount from last 3 month. Last month my bill was 1000/-, i called your customer care n told them regarding this, they told me that their are value aided services activated on my number, though i didnt asked for them they started on their own but i ignored that paid whole amount and also deactivated all that services, but this month you have given me a bill of rs.2634/- which is totally irrational, this shouldnt be the way and not the write thing to do with your customer and as i didnt got proper response from your side i already complained regarding this matter in national consumer helpline with complaint number 385653. I also want to port my this mumber to vodafone as i lost trust in your company becuase of this fraud.

                        Since last 4 days, i am having a lot of problem accessing the internet. On observing i found, the problem is that internet is working in the loop of one minute that it works for 1 minute then stop for another full one minute. I am not making it up the problem is literally as stupid as it sounds. This is so frustrating specially when in online conversations. Please see to it.
                        And why it is so hard to reach airtel customer care??

                        My calls are getting diverted even though only one sim is there in the mobile
                        My no is [protected]..i have tried a lot to get UPC Code after sending lot of messages PORT [protected] TO 1900...But I didn't get.. Every time money deducted... Why the problem arise only with airtel only..

                          I did two recharges on 28 july 2017, but it is not reflecting in my airtel account.
                          Airtel customercare telephones do not have option to lodge complaint. Also, reaching an executive is a big task, as the option is unavailable.
                          Once could get after long try, the guy did not respond well and hanged the phone.
                          My recharge reference as per receipt from airtel are below.
                          1.[protected] for rs 399.00
                          2.[protected] for rs 92.00
                          I am unable to use mobile with zero balance now.
                          Please credit the recharges immediately and confirm by mobile and sms.
                          Please note i lost confidence on recharges done online due to very poor options on customercare telephone menu.
                          Treat matter urgent.

                                Why do i keep getting calls asking for my bank and debit card details so that the money could be refunded, instead of refunding why cant you just put the amount on my prepaid or is it a false alarm someone trying to take advantage of the situation ...can i not expect any genuine help instead .am very dissapointed.

                                  Website: www.airtel.in

                                  I had request broadband connection in my area gurgaon, sector 23 through the airtel portal HTTPs://WWW.airtel.in/broadband/ on 31 march 2017.

                                  On 7th april 2017 airtel representative came at my place and asked me to fill the form and given the security money 1000 rs cash. He had given me form replica where is shown 1000 rs paid.

                                  Next day i got call from the same representative that my due to some technical problem they can not provide connection i asked him to refund the money he said i have to talk customer care he can not refund directly.

                                  I called the customer care people they said mail at [protected]@in. Airtel.com with the repcipt i got from the representative after that they will start refund process and refund will come in my given account number.

                                  I send him all the required document with canceled cheque photo copy.
                                  Since there is no response each time i call the customer care they said same thing i have send many times at least 15 times all the related documents but there is no action has been taken.

                                  Its been almost 5 month and this is very painful and stressful the call them each time and got same response, i'm middle class person who works in private company it is hard to me to call call them every next day to listing only them and no action after that.

                                  Please provide me my refund with dignity there should strict action against aritel which claims no 1 in service and customer care #.
