I got my international roaming activated on 3rd may 2017. I also got my data stopped and switched to minimum billing plan of 149 rs per month just to keep my number active. Now after 3 months here in the uk, i still see a bill of 1600rs, 1400rs and 800+rs every month. This is not acceptable. Please get this sorted out asap. I do not want to get into a situation where i have to pay for a service that i have not used at all. I am corporate postpaid customer from tata consultancy services. If this is not sorted out, i might have to close down my 10+ years old number. Let me see today how important it is for airtel as an organization to retain their loyal customers. Thanks.

    My mobile number is [protected]. Pathetic problem of erratic network and instant call drop for the past over 4 months. Not able to attend even one call clearly. Network flickers and suddenly drops. Have been registering complaints for the past over 4 months. Umpteen number of calls from airtel call centre but to no avail at all. Changed sim card twice and phone once. Problem does not get resolved at all. Perhaps, airtel does not care about customers any more or lost the ability to redress the customer complaints. I am facing this problem for the first time in the past over 14 years. I feel, i might need to switch service provider

      Dear sir/madam,

      To link our aadhaar card to mobile number, airtel service center charged 100/- as processing fees. As per my knowledge it's free of service.

      Kindly look into this matter asap.

        Hi,
        I have recharged of rs 147 as mentioned in your site on aug 1, 2017, which states that 1 gb data will be credited for 4g handsets and 600 mb for other handsets for 28 days.
        But after my recharge i got a message stating that i have the data of 2525.54 mb validity till 18-aug-2017 and hh (3 am to 5 am) 4g hs :4089.7 mb
        Val :02-aug-2017.
        In your site it was no where mentioned that this pack have so many constraints.
        I would like to know the reason for the misleading info and my data to be credited as stated.

          I have done the recharges of rs 399 in mumbai circle for unlimited calling and data. It was done from airtel app and the offer was showing as unlimited calling and data.

          The data is not working, i visited to airtel customer care, they are saying your sim is 3g, i will have to but new 4g sim and do the recharge again for rs 399. The earlier recharge is gone and will not be refunded.

          Its really ridiculous and airtel is bluffing with customer money, if recharge is not applicable for my sim then why they shown as offer to my account in airtel application. They have accepted money also and showing 1 gb data daily in my account but its not accessible

            Website: SMS RECEIVED ON MY MOBILE PHONE

            I have received sms from az-airfta informing my request for porting my idea number to airtel has been received.

            Then i received sms from az-airclb informing my request for porting has been processed. A while later received sms informing the request has been rejected as details mismatch.

            Please be informed that i am very happy with my idea mobile service and have not put any request for porting to airtel at all.
            Please look into this urgently and take corrective action against these fraudulent operators.
            Else i will have to lodge complaint against airtel with my local police station and department of telecommunication which may please be noted.
            Your immediate action will be highly appreciated

                I am a resident of chandigarh sector 15-d, using airtel prepaid no. [protected] since many years but due to my phone set issues. I could not able to keep it working for few weeks, therefore it was blocked since two months. Regarding the same, i visited nearest exclusive airtel store to get reactive my prepaid number but they could not resolve my issue and made silly excuses on every visit. I am getting harassed since two months and there is no outcome by the end of airtel services.
                Please take immediate action as soon as possible.
                Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                I recharged for 399/- 84GB for 84 days, but this offer worked for only 28 days. I have a 3G sim and 4G handset, I didn't upgrade yet since my location is not 4G supported.
                Sim converted to postpaid and since last evening it is showing no service.
                I am not able to call anyone
                Airtel executives are not able to resolve this issue.
                Please resolve this as soon as possible else i will have to change my network from airtel

                      I am an airtel prepaid user, and has been using it for the past 7 years plus.

                      Recently, on may 1st 2017, i received a message stating that a recharge of 399 will give internet benefits of 1 gb per day, and free local calls for a period of 56 days.

                      As per the message, i opted to pay 399, other than the usual ₹345 which provided me the same benefits for 28 days.
                      The recharge was done on may 14th, but the benefits were not provided, and a call to the customer care reported that the recharge was invalid, thus wasting 399 of my money.
                      I require either a full refund or a usual benefit of 345 for 1 month, else i will have to opt out and port my number to other providers.
                      Hope the issue gets resolved quickly.

                        I'm sanjana subbaiah. I stay in bengaluru. I'm using airtel 3g pre-paid with mobile number [protected]. For the last 3 months, i'm receiving calls from unknown numbers requesting to speak to mr. Vishal with mobile number [protected]. They all are dialing [protected] number and it is getting redirected to my number [protected]. I get more than 6 calls per day due to this cross connection issue. I have raised a complaint with the airtel customer care but they were unable to help me out on this issue.

                        Please look into this complaint.
                        Airtel customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                          I had taken a new dth connection online on 3th june this year
                          I waited for so many days. No one called me for installation. Then again i called multiple times to their customer care. No on e helped. Finally i raised a request for cancellation. Then someone called and said they will install, i said them to proceed with cancellation as it was already 9 days after i bought it and no one came for installation.

                          They accepted it and promised me that they will give a refund in 7 working days. It has been 23 days now, i have been calling them 3 to 4 times on a daily basis to get my money back. No luck.
                          Such pathetic service they have.

                              Hi
                              I airtel sell their broadband connection by providing wrong information that speed i got is minimum 8 mbps but after that i got 1 mbps speed. When i contact customer care they said we are working on that and soon you will get updated speed. They are upgradwe technology in my area last week they inform me that technology upgraded and when i ask for update my speed they said it is not possible because your maximum speed is 2mbps.

                                    I purchase a new sim of airtel in rs. 450 because they were giving 84 gb of free 4g net and free calling for 3 months. Instead only 2gb of 3g net and 1 month of free calling was given. I had also registered a complaint to them before but no action has been taken. Any clear call center no. Or customer care number where i can talk to someone regarding same is also unavailable on internet and no response on toll free no.

                                      You are given the already used landline phone number 4371677 to me. So i am attending many wrong calls daily for more than a year. So i am totally vexed for getting airtel landline. I didnot know where to complain this problem. Now only i got this complaint form. Kindly allot a new landline number instead of old used landline phone number. Thank you very much sir
