I was in Vodafone prepaid mode. Airtel customer called me and convey giving offer for 349rs unlimited calls 6gb Internet 3000msgs free roaming charge per month. Once I changed to airtel they set 499rs plan whatever they said previous all things lie. It's a forgery to cheat a new user.

    I ported my number to airtel and they couldnt do it in 2 weeks also. I had to live without any cellphone on my birthday also. And their customer care is so careless and annoying they wont help you ever so its better to not opt for airtel ever. Customer service is worst! Very very poor. I recharged my after when it was finally ported then also its not working and the recharges are not working. I recharged with 102 and got 1 rs in main account. Really poor service.

            He most pathetic service i have ever seen. Can this be escalated to the area manager please?

            I have placed a request ref no. 64010367 on 7th aug 2017 to upgrade my set top box to internet tv box. I got a call from an engineer called santosh - [protected] on 7th aug evening for the request and i told him that the set top box need to be replaced. He spoke in a very rude manner and just hung up on me without closing the conversation.

            I called the customer service again to complain against this engineer and requesting to assign another service engineer. Another request was placed ref no. 64011601 stating that the engineer is rude.

            On 8th aug, 10.15 am i receive a call from santosh again and i requested him to come at 3.30 pm to install the set top box, however he again spoke rudely and said that if i cant be home then why did i even place the request. He said that he will close the request mentioning that there is no stock of the internet tv set top box.

            I had no clue that the airtel service is so pathetic. If the set top box is not placed today, i would like to discontinue the services with airtel.

            Requesting an update asap on the same.

              The link https://www.airtel.in/broadband/ is not working and it keeps on loading.

              I would like to enroll for new connection for Home Broadband. But, couldn't run through the options because of this problem.

              If possible, let me know if there are any alternate links for accessing the broadband services and about Airtel TV plans

                I was done a recharge in my airtel app to my own no mistakenly as i was supposed to recharge airtel dongle. What i am asking i am a costumer & i am asking to cancel my own order of my own no recharge. After contacting to customer care they are replaying there is no option.

                1. I used my airtel app
                2. I done recharge to my own no which is already in 399 plan in spite of that the recharge is showing successful for 349 how it is possible this is cheating.

                  your team member call me and tell that u got a 1 GB data for 3 months as a free gift as u r a postpaid connector to the air tel. Now for the free data they are collecting the amount of internet usage of Rs 445 for every month. I donot understand the concept of gift and collected the money for every month .. The bill details are showing in my airtel accounts..

                    Sir,

                    Pl. Refer my e mail complaint dated 7.8.2017. Even i went personally to airtel customer care at khan latif khan office at hyderabad near lal bahadur stadium and after paying rs.26.00 got sms recharge. I complained to them also and told them that i was trying from secretariat office to contact customer care office of airtel and wants to talk with one of them personally but could not get connected. One of the executive took my mobile and dialed some number and at the other end executive i told my problem, but he told the he will connect to one of the supervisor of ailtel. The supervisor told me that he dos't know the english and will talk me with telugu. It is very fun they a person is working with airtel does't know the english. We can check the recorded cd in your office. Very shame. He then told that he will connect to his higher officer and made me wait for some minutes and just simply disconnected. After some time i received smsat 17.51pm "thank you for contacting us. Hope the concern related to your airtel mobile [protected] has been resolved to your ref. No. Is cbnrs [protected] registered on 07 aug, 2017 17.51.

                    I feel your service is very bad... As you ailtel are giving such service so people/customers are being switched to jio. Even i sent mail by complaint this issue but not received an acknowledgement or reply.

                    I hope some of your higher office will look into this.

                              We had enjoyed very good speed with 4g connections until 45 days ago. The speed has detoriated suddenly with lot of connection drops. It is now not even up to 2 g speeds often. It is worse if we do mobile hotspots.. We have made several complaints. The last we complained, they said even the call center network is down and asked me to call back later. All in my family use airtel and now that it sucks we are planning to move away after so many years.
                              Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              Every time you call customer care, they say they will resolve this in next 5 days and cut the call. It has been a month like this for me and my family members with Airtel 4G. FB videos don't play, most of sites don't load, you have to keep on refreshing to get them loaded at least once. Experience with payment gateways is again worse.

                              If a company like Airtel is not able to invest in infrastructure at such a hot IT location, I am not sure how they even plan to capture market share. Is this a trick to convert us into broadband? I was considering postpaid but by seeing the present connectivity experience, I have no trust to convert.

                                The new 399 plan gives 84 days validity for many people, where as when i checked, i am getting it with only 28 days validity. Why this discrimination?
                                There is no way where i can register a complaint. The complaint helpline is studded with useless ivr options where even after wasting half an hour, we cannot talk to a service representative.

                                  I submitted claim for my device one plus 3t for which i have subscribed to plan airtel secure. I uploaded all relevant docs and it was picked up today around 10am.

                                  I received a call from vendor from telephone number [protected] that they have recd request for i phone 6 pick up and my device is one plus 3t. Even though i explained them that i have registered claim for one plus 3t only and submitted all document for the same device, but they said that they will cancel the request as they can not take it further and i have to submit claim again.

                                  I asked the vendor to wait but he said he can not help further, then i called 121 airtel helpline and explained them the matter, to that they replied that cant help i should mail to [protected]@oneassist.in and i did that to... Then i received a mail from one plus assist towards acknowledgement of mail... There was a number below for customer care,,, i called at that number and talked at one assist and to my grievance they said they cant help i had to call 121... I again called up 121 and explained entire matter all over again and to that too they said they cant help... Now i do not know who can help... I have an insurance plan from airtel and they have tie up with one assist... But none knows what to answer...

                                  Just help me sort the matter please...

                                  Now when they returned back my phone that too without repair again they have sen me somebody elses phone.

                                  Where is my phone??? Why have they launched Airtel secure plan if there is no coordination among their own departments.

                                  I need back my phone on urgent basis.

                                  Pathetic service by Airtel and pathetic professionalism.

                                      Dear sir/ma'am,
                                      I really don't know how many times i have complained about the network issue with airtel, mobile 4g network & voice network at my residence, but there is no proper response at all from your side.
                                      I only get assurances that the network will get fine but finally it ends up being the same.
                                      I get calls asking if the network issue is solved, i say what have you done to solve it, no proper response, then they say that they will send a person to the location but no one turns up & finally i get to know the complaint is closed without solve the issue & without even my consent.
                                      This is the kind of irresponsibility shown by airtel customerservice.
                                      I have also tried to port to other network, again i got a call from the retention team who promised to solve the network issue but as usual complaint was closed without the consent with no changes at all.
                                      It's my sincere request to you to kindly let me know if any solution is there for this issue, if not please do have the guts to say that you will not resolve it instead of lying everytime.
                                      I am not able to attach the pics of the speed of internet at various times at home because it is too large for the attachment. Kindly look into the matter & do the needful.
                                      For any communication, my mail id is deepak. [protected]@gmail.com & number is [protected].
