Airtel Complaints & Reviews

My network is not working on 4G, after having a 649 Rs. pack I should get 6GB 4G data
My airtel app is not updated
1. My balance data is not showing
2. My plan is not updated or I am not able to change my plan from my airtel app

Screenshots for your reference attached below

To whomsoever it may concern,

We opted for a new broadband connection first week of this month . Next day itself a person came and filed the documents . We did not pay the money because we wanted to do it at the time of installation . The executive that had come to collect the documents agreed for this arrangement . Next day we get a call from your team that we need to make the payment of 500 in advance for the file to move . They repeatedly called over the next few days and finally I agreed to transfer money via paytm last to last Friday . Since then there has been no action, no call, no message regarding what happened to our connection request . It has been more than a week now . The Airtel employee with the phone number[protected] had been handling our request . He is no longer taking our calls .

I have paytm receipt for the transaction, I can share it if you want . Kindly help me figure out what's happening at airtel .

Regards

I have received the message for special offer of 399/- rs and benefit was 1 gb 4g data per day for 70 days. I recharged for 399/- rs and the validity which i got is till 30th june 2017 only. And the recharge done is on 23rd june 2017. And i am unable to resolve the issue. Called 198 also they said that validity is till 31st august 2017 but i didn't got any message from the company regarding validity.

This is 3 month back when i purchased airtel 4g sim, that time i was using the network quite smoothly even all you tube video was watching without any hurdle but nowi cant do even net surfing, it takes too long time while opening a page... Quite disatisfied response of customer care as i registered complaint on 13.06.17 and told about my problem what sudden happened with the network due to which i'm facing this problem which earlier it was not, but i think nobody is serious about customer and now i think i should switch over from airtel...🤔🙄

I'm writing this email with huge frustration and distressed by airtel digital service.
I had received call from airtel sales no.[protected] for hd upgradation with 21 hd channels & base package in 1750 on 11th june morning.
I had got setup box upgraded afternoon on 11th jun. Got confirmation call for feedback on services from same no. But nightmare started on 14jun when a/c suspended for low balance.
Called customer care executive for complaints i was shocked to know no such offers available.
It was wrong commitment from external sales and i was informed that they will check and either refund or resume services after rechecked by back end team.
I had suffering since 14 jun and not able to saw cricket semifinal and no other program. I had made calls last 8 days to get it refunded or resumed, but nothing seems moving.
Paid rs.1750 for hd service with base pack for year and lost simple standard service and suffering for last 8 days.

Dear airtel folks,

Gamepind services automatically activated on my number and inr 30 was deducted from the balance, kindly credit back the amount as soon as possible. The request to activate this particular service was never made from my end, requeat yiu to resolve this at the earliest and credit back the money deducted without any rhyme or reason.

Airtel India i using Airtel since last 8years.
I have a Airtel prepaid number from Kolkata.
I am working in Delhi at present.Due to sim damage I got a duplicate sim from Airtel customer service in Dwarka sector 4.
Its been 2 days and I am still waiting for the sim to get activated.I tried contacting customer care in Delhi, they asked me to contact Airtel customer care of Kolkata.All the available numbers of Airtel Kolkata is either not available or disconnects right when I am about get transferred to a customer care representative.
Most of my bill payments in Kolkata are linked with my Kolkata Airtel Number! I tried sending a complaint on [protected]@in.airtel.com and I got no response from them in last 48hrs.

If this is how you treat your loyal customers then its better to shift to other network...!!! providers

I tried to port on airtel using mnp but now regret by heart as my worst decision.
After my network changed from old provider to new provider, i was toll to make call on59059 and get televerification but when i try calling it says outgoing call facility is not available please contact customer care.
I contacted every customer care and at there airtel store but no one was able to solve my problem.
After which i contacted nodal officer delhi,
He to me that he escalated it to concerned team and it will be solved in 48hrs.
72hrs passed nothing happened, so i tried again he again told me the same and generated new service request and told me to wait.
Now after 10days are passed my no. Is still the same i am unable to connect and now i fear my no. Will be blocked as it hasn't been televerified.

Atlast now i am hopeless and believed that i will never get myno. Back but now i have a life experience that

Never choose airtel

I am not satisfied with postpaid plans because company is giving 1 gb data and unlimited free calls... But in prepaid company is giving 28 gb data and unlimited calls in same 349rs... So thats why i am going to port out my number in idea because thier plans are even good than airtel... If company gives me good offer than i will not port out my number... I will wait for the confirmation message till 5th july

Cheated by airtel for hello tunes. Received a call from call centre saying that the hello tune service is free and to confirm 5 after the record ed msg. On confirmation as it was saying it was chargable for rs 280. Automaticaly deducted and confirmed as i heard a beep call. And immediately put he cut the call. And 280got deducted. Its not about the money. It is cheating and using unethical means and spoiling the name of the company. Such trick s will not take the company forward in the long run

Sub: complain against wrong billing – with wrong scheme of airtel mobile connections.
Ref: mobile no.[protected], [protected] – name of customer: nityananda hazra.

Dear sir,

With ref to the above, we employees of ntpc ltd., were approached by your employee mr. Sunil grover at our office with a scheme of ₹ 349/- (Taxes extra) in which the facilities were offered as – unlimited calling/message, free roaming – in coming/outgoing & 6 gb data @ 4 g speed.
Whereas the 1st month’s bill we have received for rs.661/-, on contacting mr. Sunil grover he informed that the wrong scheme feeding has been done by airtel due to some reason and assured to correct the same. As the correction was under process and it was time taking we have paid the bill on assurance of mr. Sunil grover that the additional/balance amount shall be adjusted in the next months bill.
Regret to mention that in the next month also no correction has been effected and the bill is raised by airtel with the same amount i. E. For ₹ 661/-, accordingly we contacted mr. Sunil grover and informed the status, then he said that no need to pay the bills as corrections would be effected at airtel’s end. After his commitment on 5th june we have received message from airtel (121) stating that ₹ 448/- has been received, but regular reminder is being received that the payment is due. And ultimately the out going services has been dropped by airtel. On contacting mr. Grover he assured to correct the same and continued the same commitment but no fruitful result is received by us.in the meantime another months bill has served by airtel including previous months bill amount, whereas outgoing service is kept in abeyance.
On contacting mr. Sunil grover he used to misbehave with us and refused to correct the bill/scheme, we are very surprising with such type of behaviour from a organization like airtel.
In this connection you are requested to kindly look in to the matter and arrange to correct the bills according to the scheme was offered to us.
It is known fact that, a renowned name in the area of telecommunication has failed to fulfil its commitment of providing hassle free service to a goi’s maharatna power giant like ntpc.
I assure you, though you have failed to keep your words, i wont fail in getting the number ported tosome other service provider as and when technically i get the porting right.
It has been a bitter experience for all the ntpc employees posted at dehradun, which was resultant of in efficient and unprofessional attitude of airtel staff.
Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
Nityananda hazra

I have been visiting airtel showrooms / relationship centres for almost 2 months and finally june 19th i visited velachery arc (Opp. Saravana stores) and they agreed to convert from post to pre. I paid additional amount other than the bill amount to be on safer side to avoid any issue with services getting suspended due to payment default. They committed 48 hours time to convert but after passing 100 hours also no update from the airtel and everytime i call they ask me to wait 48 hours more. Is it a trick / psychopaths not really willing to convert or do they think not to migrate from post to pre to suck money out of my pocket for no use. Finally i called nodal officer and even he didn't assured me about the issue getting resolved. Now i am clueless about to stay back with airtel or port out to other network. Overall negative experience with airtel.

Hi,
1) in airtel website you mentioned that we will get 70 days data and calling but i got sms as 56 days only. While i'm checking validity it showing 28 days from the date i recharged.
2) i recharged on 6th june 2017. Now i'm not getting data.
Please resolve as soon as possible.
I'm unable to connect customer care.

I tried doing recharge from my airtel app on 20th june in the morning. My got deducted and recharge not done. I tried doing it several times and every time my transaction got failed. Money got deducted from my bank account and my recharge is not done yet. I tried reaching customer care via call and email (3times). They havnt replied to my mail. I got call nce and i havent got resolution. I have to take an advance talk time from airtel as my phone balance was nil nor i can use my data pack. More than 600rd got debited from my account.

I have been Airtel customer for years and love the service but there have few been a few times recently I have faced disappointments.

I would like to bring this one to your attention. I am sure this has been faced by many many of your loyal Airtel customers.

On your Airtel recharge page https://www.airtel.in/prepaid-recharge there is a recharge listed for Rs. 197 which benefits new customers only.
Your website mentions:
1GB(3G)+1GB 3G(night) SR only For greater than 90 days - 500 MB 3G

The website says "SR only" but there is no way to know what it means. Many unsuspecting loyal customers are doing this recharge and getting just 500 MB data because they are "old" customers. Instead of this they could have done Rs. 175 recharge which gives 1 GB data for 28 days i.e. 28GB of total data.

I have recharged today for Rs. 197 due to the same confusion and would like mine to be switched to Rs. 175 recharge. I can deal with Rs. 22 loss but otherwise my Rs. 197 recharge is total waste. Please give me a recharge of Rs. 175 instead of the Rs. 197 which I already paid through PayTM.
At the very least I will suggest you to atleast correct the Airtel recharge page.

I have 4g sim with 4g handset with full tower and with an 4g symbol and am not able to search any thing in google. It will show no internet connection. When i switch on data sometimes tower will go off and reconnects after 10 to 15 secs. If am doing any transaction then it will hang in the middle itself. Could you please take action on them and ask them to stop ookla advertisement too. Consider this complaint with ookla too. Thank you.
