      Hi team,

      Reg: its regarding my 4g connection bill amount refund.

      I have taken 4g connection (Number: [protected]) sim ([protected]), when i am taking sim they informed me once after address verification you have to call and confirm the address to customer care number then only it will get activated.
      Because of my personal reasons am in out of town for a few days. I called customer care and asked about bill cycle when it will get activated they told me the day when u start using data from that sim, the day will be the start.
      Activation. But i didn't activated or used any data for that number still
      Bill got generated. Then i talk to customer care (Name:asha date:20th june 2015 around 6:30pm) she understood my problem and informed me to pay the full bill and later every month call to customer care and give the account number ([protected]) they will give you refund amount to your postpaid mobile number ([protected]) bill.
      And same day she gave 200+ refund to my mobile number ([protected]) bill.

      Again i got call from customer care about 4g connection cancellation they asked me for the reason, i told i lost sim and i don't want internet connection now. So they told me to take same number in prepaid. I informed them i have already airtel postpaid but still somehow she told me take prepaid connection.

      Then month 26th july 2015 i called customer care to remind about refund amount (1650) to my mobile number ([protected]) bill and i gave account number ([protected]) for reference. She told me she will send it for process it will take 48hr time. And same time she informed me that sim ([protected]) still active bill 600 will come, so i asked her to cancel the connection immediately.

      27th morning i got a call from customer care asked reason for cancellation i told above story and asked her to wave-off 600 amount since i told i lost sim and they not informed me that if i don't take prepaid, postpaid will active and bill will come. After that she told me she can give 200+ wave-off from 600 and talk to customer care they can help you. So evening i called customer care again and asked for wave for sim ([protected]) they given 300+.
      They given wave-off (600) in 27th&28th june is second time and its not related to (1650), but when i call customer care they are not getting my problem. They are confused with this.

      So they are still not giving refund amount to my mobile number ([protected]) bill from amount 1650 i paid first time.

      I felt my self as happy customer for airtel and when asha promised we will give 1650 refund, i felt very good about myself begin as a airtel customer from last 4 years since they are helping me when i am in need.

      But 15-20 days i have called and went customer care for this refund around more than 15-20 times and now i felt very bad and lost hope about this amount.

        Hi,

        In my airtel bill for the period: 05-jul-2017 to 04-aug-2017 bill no:[protected], reflecting as international sms to the number:[protected], 5 times. Details is as:

        05/jul/2017 02:20:[protected]
        05/jul/2017 14:44:[protected]
        06/jul/2017 07:15:[protected]
        23/jul/2017 11:13:[protected]
        23/jul/2017 13:29:[protected]

        But i haven't send any sms to that number and i have no idea about that number. When i checked online the same number found for fraud in other service provider too. I guess its a fraud from the company. You have charged 25 rs for 5 messages, 5rs per sms. I want this to be solved.

            My postpaid bill was hiked to 900 rs more than regular bill amount. Upon reached customercare couple of time i was getting suggested that, i have enrolled for value added services, so the bill has jumped to 688 rupees and the same vas i have deactivated last month. Spoke to nodal officer and got some amount waive off. Now again getting issue with mobile data connect. Unable to access it. Reached customer executive who has no idea, why did it happen, and asked me to wait 12 - 48 hrs. Spoke to nodal officer again and they also suggested the same. Pathetic service i am getting from airtel now a days. Just want to know, i[censored]nable to provide the reason on why it happed, what exact service you are providing and don't know when the issue will get resolve. Reached nearby airtel show room there, the executives are just passing my request to a lady who is busy in addressing everyone's request except mine. My entire family uses the same airtel services, i[censored]nable to provide the service properly let us know so that we can switch to another telecom service providers.

                  I am using airtel dth for past 2 months. I have activated star vijay hd as offer from airtel in discounted rate. Validity 30 days. I called customer care they said the channel will come continuously even after 30 days and normal rate will be charged after 30days. This is unnecessary charge. The channel should get deactivated after 30 days. When a offer made for channel it should come only for 30 days, if offer continues they can continue the channel or else the channel should get deactivated automatically. Otherwise its a trick use hd channel at higher cost. Please make necessary changes immediately. Thanks

                      Despite several phone calls and numerous email i am not able to set 4g manually on my phone whereas i am availing this service from last one year. Whenever i tried to select operator as airtel 4g manually every-time i got message that "can't connect to this network right now. Try again later." i have tried to get connected manually at different location of gurgaon and all of the places same message got.in my earlier emails to airtel i have send phone screenshot showing problem but still problem is unresolved despite attempting several settings as suggested

                      Its quite disappointing that despite already paid for 4g service i have to compromise with inferior 3g services.

                      I don't felt Airtel is serious to resolve customer problem and now their services are worst ever.

                      Despite hundreds of email and phone calls I am not getting 4g services for which payment had already been made to Airtel.

                      If Airtel is not capable to provide 4g service than why they are claiming as fastest network and at same time charging for us.

                        Since last two months Airtel activated some value added services without my any kind of request and when I call to customer care, they said that the service was activated on my SMS request. Today Again, some vales added service activated without my any kind of request. In Airtel, using *121*51# we can check last 5 transactions, and that picture attached here. I'm complaining about the scream activated on mobile devices without any request and deduct the balances from customer without any kind of customer request.

                            Hi airtel team,

                            I submitted a mnp request for my mobile no. [protected] from dolphin (Mtnl) to airtel on 14 august 2017 at your airtel retail store (Sector-25 market, noida)

                            I received a message from airtel that my no will be ported to airtel by 19 august 2017 @ 11:00pm.

                            Due to this my sim card from old operator (Dolphin mtnl) stopped working but the new sim card that i received for airtel didn't work.

                            Inspite of visiting your airtel store (Sector-25 market, noida) on sunday, monday and tuesday consequetively leaving aside innumerable phone calls my airtel sim is still not working.

                            This is very bad service on part of airtel. I am without a working phone for 3 days now with no speedy resolution of problem.

                            Kindly look into this issue asap and get my sim started. I don't want any delay for this.

                            Thanks and regards
                            Ankur mittal

                              Hello,
                              When i woke up, just now, i found a message for deduction of rs 35 for model mania service activation at 1:45 am., for which i have not applied.
                              It is for yr kind information that i have not activated anything like this.
                              So i request to revert the deducted amount or explain me for any hidden action selected by me with proof.

                                I did recharge of 399 on 22nd july 2017 through myairtel app showing 84 days validity with unlimited plan. After recharge validity of 28 days was showing then i called customer care and she said that in this plan please dont see validity it will be auto extended for 84 days.
                                Now after 28 days i am not getting any benefits of 399 recharge and after calling and lodging many complaints no help from airtel team.
                                I am ready to drag them in consumer court and would request to listen my conversation with airtel executive wen she said yes you will get 84days validity. Even after recharge from myairtel app, this is happebing.

                                      I raised internet network issue request with airtel number 121 on 6 aug and they assigned me two service request 78424116 and 78424341. Its still in progress and no one has contacted me yet to resolve the issue. I called the helpline number again today and now they say we will look into this.
                                      When they ask us for the bill payment we should not be late as then they will charge penalty. Then why not when we face issues like this such network operators should be charged for there lenient attitude
                                      They make so called postpaid promise and they are yet to offer basic internet facility, i am paying for 4g and not even getting a 2g internet

                                        I have been using your airtel sim from 2004 but i did't get any offers. I am paying 349 for every month but one of my neighbor he bought new sim for time pass and temporarily use and he is getting free calls and free 1 gb data for 3 months with 389 rupes and i am not sure when will he thrown out the sim. I have been paying money from a long time for you and a good and old customer for you but why can't we use your offers and what wrong with me?
