      Sir my number is [protected] is a prepaid number. I have registered complaint against airtel regarding misbehavior fraudulent calls and wrong promises and unsatisfactory redressal. On 7 aug 2017 12:41 pm i had received call from airtel from number [protected] name of executive : karan. After i told him my all problems which i am facing from last 3 months he committed me compensation amount and a good will gesture of rs. 1000 during call., he said that the amount will be credited on your account on four consecutive days 300+300+300+100=1000. But after that no amount is credited on my account. Airtel once again make me fool during call. No use of this portal. Airtel do not complete any commitment with customer. Its one of the fraud telecom network form appellate, mnp, customer care and even consumer-helpline (Airtel) no synchronization. Everyone is misbehaving with me giving fraud information and commitments.. Please check call recordings. I will go in court against this.

        I had given a disconnection request on june 17th 2017 (Req no:[protected], but my airtel connection was not disconnected. Instead i was charged inr 1, 124.00 which i have paid. I have now raised another request (Req no:[protected]. I need this connection disconnected along with the refund of inr 1, 124.00.

        My airtel account no: [protected]

        From the time i had given the disconnection request, 3 representatives from airtel called asking me not to disconnect and every time i asked them to go ahead with the disconnection process

        Amount is still not credited to my bank account

        (My earlier complaint was automatically marked as resolved. Not sure why

                Address: Udupi, Karnataka, 574110

                I am staying in net boys hostel, nmamit, nitte, karkala taluk, udupi district, karnataka, india. Here the 4g and 3g network is almost non existent. Sometimes even the 2g network is not continuous. I don't know how to reach the customer care because if we call 198 we won't be able to talk to the representative. If your network is so bad, why do you boast about yourselves so much? In ads you show that even in forests we get 4g network, which i and many others feel is complete nonsense. Just by claiming "airtel is india's biggest network" you don't become one. We don't care how many towers you install, we just want good network. Stop scamming us and value our money. If not then you will lose all your customers very soon. And the only reason holding your customers back from porting to other networks is the trust in airtel, don't lose it.
                We are expecting the issue to be solved immediately. And i am also expecting a call from the airtel care.

                            Hi,

                            It has been really sad to observe the worst ever services from airtel. I bought an airtel secure plan in the last couple of months

                            I never have been careless in my handling of the phone, you can check that screen protector was installed on the phone. However, i was never aware that slipping of phone as to be some specific occasion until i heard that my claim has been rejected due to it got slipped in the crowded lift and some one put his leg on it and this was due to my carelessness.
                            What a rubbish statement ever...

                            May i request you to look into concern as after 10 days of rigorous follow up i could register my claim and after 10 days of picking the device, i have been told that claim is rejected. I have not taken this secure services from insurance provider and i don't want to hear their lame excuses. I am going to proceed with legal option if not taken my request seriously.

                            Hoping to hearing from you soon.

                            Airtel has deducted RS 99 for international roaming.
                            1. I never asked for this service.
                            2. I never made any calls nor did I use the internet nor did I send any sms

                            Why do u deduct rs99 for no reason??

                            Airtel is cheating customers by offering Rs 399 recharge to get data and voice benefits for 84 days but not providing the offer for more than 28 days and just cheating the customers by saying its a technical problem...

                              My sim has not been swaped to 4g. Its being over 4 days. The 3g net is also not working since 2 days. Its shows that your data is fully used but i got recharge on 16 august but till today its not working. Calling is not happening properly. If i start my mobile data it starts deducting my balance. I am very annoyed with the service. Plz help me in solving this problem otherwise there will be only one option for me that is only to port my number to idea.

                              I have waited for 4 weeks for a confirmation and still its not confirmed . Whenever I go to customer service in airtel office they give me fake promises of this was going to would be completed till now no action has been taken
                              I just want to get the internet access on my handset one plus x which is a 4g handset. Recharge of 345 is going waste from past 10 days and no one is able to assist me at Dehradun even at the store.
                              I have even got my sim changed to 4g from 3g but all in vain.

                                  We have taken a family plan from Airtel where the primary holder's is 499 and child holder's is 299. Airtel executive misguided us by informing that we need to pay monthly only 700 Rs. But to our shock we got a bill amount of 1300 Plus Which is ridiculous.

                                  We need a refund. We do not want to be cheated this way atleast from Airtel. We have been using this connection since 7 years. Kindly assist and reverse the amount.

                                    I saw an offer of 5% cashback on first 4 recharges on airtel app & done 2 recharges of 295 rs in past 20 days but did not get any cashback yet. I called in customer care, he said there was no such offer, on request to talk to senior executive, he disconnected. Please look after this and take necessary action.
