            I bought 2nd airtel DTH connection in the month of May 2021. I recharged my recharge on 002 connection but it was not reflecting. On contacting customer care I got to know that since I recharged 001 connection hence it is not reflecting to 002 connection. Next time onwards, I consiously selected 002 connection and recharged as I did not want to use 001 and was expecting it to get suspended due to no recharge but one day I realised my 002 topup recharge is getting eshaused far ealry than expected. On contacting customer care, they told me the reacarge done on 002 is being distributed on both the connections. I was shocked knowing this cheating that on their app they ask to choose connection in case of multi-connections and I alwasy selected 002 and still they were charing me for both without my consent that I want to recharge 001 or not. I want my refund back.

                Complaint Reference: 55843054 /[protected]. Like this received many reference. Till date registered the complaint not net solved. Over almost 120 days our entire family strugulling while switch on the TV and select the channel programe, day-day am getting bad experience from my family members dut to this issues am unable to continue my regular works and also my helath felt under sick, Follwing Airtel for me become a regular duty such like sending mail, caling Airtel customer care, visit Airtel outlet but no response, As you all aware during this Covid time only watching TV entertainment. Overall family members accomodate in house and given important on watching TV, however situation TV remote not working since long days as a family head just think about my situation, Airtel is full responsible for my pain and have to answer to my question. Only small remote problem such like Airtel big company unable to solve the problem, than why they are promoting DTH like new brands. Month wise we are paying rent, suppose if any payment delayed Airtel immediately disconnected the connection until receive the payment. In my case since last 3 months we are strugulling with Airtel instrument, in such condition Airtel have to pay, Once complaint registered / remainder from Airtel i will received a call stating that within 24Hrs will attend the complaint, after couple of hours from Airtel service team will call and asked me to share 4 digit OTP to refresh / extend my complaint, during this 4 months several times received calls and become a practice. Kindly intervene on this issues and do the needful at the earliest. Note: Our TV remote malfunctioning unable smooth operation.

                Regret to inform you, Since the last 4 months I am struggling in operating the DTH remote, however I am sending a reminder to Airtel, even though still there is no response from your end. Remote control is specially designed for this brand, and I am not interested in purchasing it in the local market. Hope Airtel side there is proper head to deal the customer queries, Airtel survey in such condition than why Forcing customer to purchase DTH, during this 5 months had I enough experience and also Airtel pressure force me to admit in Hospital. In the end, I spent a lot on these issues like, daily attending Airtel feedback calls, during my office hours, Airtel eating my busy hours, Airtel Fake message, Etc.. Still the remote complaint has not yet been attended. FYI, I registered the complaint during the warranty period, Over 5 months, now what to do. Hope Airtel acts like headless chicken, there is no proper leader to investigate these small remote issues. Very shame, I never had such a bad experience in my life. As you are not aware, I am also working as BDM Business development Manager in L&T. Really I feel sad about this issue.

                Since the complaint not yet attende, but Airtel update problem resolved. Airtel giving false feedback, like this cheating the customer is not fair, Airtel is full responsibility to answer with proper reason, without knowing customer feedback simply sendig false reply, is this the way Airtel treating the customer. I need proper response for my complaint.

                    It is well over 10 days that I had requested Airtel Customer Service to Transfer my Broadband connection from my old address in Cooke Town, Bangalore to my new Address in HRBR Layout, Bangalore.

                    An Airtel Agent called me to confirm the new address. Another Agent calls me and tells me Call 121 and put in a Shift request. I did this.

                    Yet another Agent calls me an tells me to put in a request on Airtel Thanks. I did this too.

                    Till today NOTHING has happened. I will not be paying my bill for a service that I can't use.

                    Absolutely pathetic service from AIRTEL.

                      Dear Sir / Madam,

                      I am writing to you to raise an issue about: Broadband Internet

                      The issue that I have experienced was: The connection was temporary deactivated from July to January but they keep harassing me through call to reactivate my broadband connection, 3 to 4 times daily.
                      I raised a request to reactivate my account and to sift my connection in same building on 16th of January and I recharge the account with 589 then 943 on 16th January. The service resumed on 20th January then they removed my access to my airtel broadband account and my internet service was stopped. I raised multiple complains to airtel to resume my service as there was balance left for around 70days at the time of disconnection. But they haven't take any action till now. The customer care says the service will resume in 2 hours every time I call them but it's been 7 days and no action is taken by them.

                      It occurred on: 26/01/2022

                      Either they refund the amount or resume the service.

                      I look forward to your prompt response on this matter. I would like to keep a complete record of my case, so please reply back via this email account.

                              Address: Tirupati KT road

                              At Tirupati airtel office when I submitted a handwritten letter for activation of mobile numbers, they have declined to accept it and said as per their company norms, only type written letters are not accepted. This seems very absurd. They can't read a 5 line neatly written letter in English. Do they expect every subscriber will have a typewriter or computer with a printer?

                                  My Airtel SIM was not working. Visited an Airtel showroom and they provided a new SIM, verified my Aadhar, took my photo and asked me to wait for a day to complete the verification of my genuinity at my residence.

                                  The next day an Airtel executive called me to my alternate mobile number that was provided already. I was in a meeting and returned the call five minutes later.

                                  The executive informed that since I did not pick up the call, he asked me to again contact airtel showroom and reinitiate the verification process. I did so.

                                  It is more than three working days lapsed now. I called airtel showroom executive many times. They still say the verification will be done soon and the reply is not convincing.

                                  The phone number was given for all my bank transactions, aadhaar, etc. I have got mental agony.

                                  Please help resolve the issue.

                                  Thanks

                                    Due to Kissan protest in Punjab, I was not able to operate fastag for so many months. Airtel payment bank made my wallet account Dormant and made fastag inactive attached to account. Now they mailed me that there is no procedure to make wallet account active and not telling the process to activate/recharge fastag....
