      Dear Sir/Madam,

      My airtel prepaid mobile number [protected] was deactivated last Monday without prior notification through sms. I initially thought it was due to some
      network issues. However, when I called customer care they confirmed that my number is deactivated.
      I am staying in abroad now and would like to continue using this number since I have been using it from 2008 and have this number registered with many other service providers.
      Hence, could you please reactivate my number?

      Thank you,

        I had paid in full to one of the executives for a broadband connection who came home and picked up the cash and the documents. This happened on[protected]. They said in 24 hours someone would come to fix the line and get it started, till date nothing has happened, they do not pick up our calls on the numbers they gave us and we gave numerous complaints to 198 and 121 but no one seems to take us seriously. Why would they take money and not bother to get in touch with the customers. What kind of fradulent business are they running. Please do not opt for airtel broadband they have the worst customer care and they are just looking to pull money from the cusomters

                            I want to bring in your notice that I am using your broadband service since last 4 years account [protected] and now I have shifted on 1st April, 2017 to another location. I want to shift the connection to new location with same number and plan. I raised request 80713872 for connection shift on 31st March, 2017. It was cancelled by your team, as per them DP is full at given location. Hence, connection cannot be shifted. After that I raised another request 81206474 on 13th April, 2017 for another location which is very close to my current location (approx. same distance from current DP). Again your team has refused to shift the connection at this location too. This time they are saying that feasibility issue at this location.
                            Can you please explain that how can they say it as I explained above this location is very close to my current location (approx. same distance from current DP). There are many users using Airtel Broadband services in my society. It’s already been more than a month since I shifted to new location. My connection is active in your records and rental is on, I would not be liable to pay rental from 1st April, 2017 as I am not using the services. Also, I raised complaint on the portal LB[protected], unfortunately, I have heard nothing from them and now it is showing closed on the portal.
                            Now I am very frustrated and disappointed with this issue, this is pathetic. If DP is full, who will increase the size. I was not expecting this from Airtel. I was really very happy with Airtel services since last 4 years.

                            I am getting so many calls from your team and they refused to shift the connection to new location which is in front of old location as I explained in previous email.

                            Please be informed that your team has refused to shift it. But I don't understand the reason behind it. I have not received any call from technician, even after numerous requests for technician visit at location. Also, I have escalated this issue on social media, unfortunately, I heard nothing from them.

                            Really disappointed and frustrated with Airtel customer services. This is really pathetic that no resolution provided from Appellate Authority and Nodal Office.

                            Also, I discussed with your sales executive, network availability is not more than 15-20 Meters from my location. This should not take too much time to install DP and all. As per him, It should not take more than 08-10 days.

                            So, I can wait for two weeks more until DP gets install. Please shift my connection once network is available at my location. It's not a big deal to install the DP if your business/customer is increasing, I believe.

                            I would request you to please have a look into this matter on high priority and get this resolved at the earliest. Please let me know if any additional information is required from my end.

                              I have been converted my Airtel post paid number to airtel prepaid number since last two month ago. Till then I could not able to recharge my prepaid number through online. I have called multiple times during last two months to customer care to resolve this issue, but no solution from their end. Even I mailed to [protected]@airtel.in several time, but no reply from their end.
                              Even I tried to port my number to other network, it is also not possible as it required minimum 90 days.
                              But today my frustration level exceed as one of the customer care person behave so roughly, when I call customer care at 12:05 pm, 09.05.2017.
                              Please suggest what should do?

                              Airtel — Dealership

                              I want Dealership
                              I have been converted my Airtel post paid number to airtel prepaid number since last six month ago. Till then I could not able to recharge my prepaid number through online. I have called multiple times during last two months to customer care to resolve this issue, but no solution from their end. Even I mailed to [protected]@airtel.in several time, but no reply from their end.
                              But today my frustration level exceed as I tried 20 to 25 times to call customer care but line was not connected to customer care executive. It looks like Airtel has no value for prepaid customer. So looking for a quick resolution else I will port my no to other operator.

                                Website: airtel.in

                                I have had issues with airtel since Feb end, as my broadband was not working properly. The same was rectified, and again stopped working in the first week of March.
                                After constant follow ups with the customer service for over 3 weeks and a few visits by technicians the connection would work intermittently. I finally decided to terminate the broadband connection and move to another provider.
                                I promptly received a call from a senior person assuring me of a speedy rectification one last chance.
                                No good came out of waiting for them. All they ever spoke about was reverting in 48 - 72 hours, standard responses with a million apologies. I didnt want any assurances or apologies, just a working connection.

                                Finally, I sent them a note asking for the disconnection of broadband only. IN the first week of April, the entire line is disconnected and I have no landline service right now.
                                This is my office number and have been handicapped since.
                                Writing to the Appellate has not helped one bit, same assurances. Even writing on the facebook page has yielded no result or positive response.

                                Last week, while on call with a customer service executive, he said there is no activation request at all.
                                Is Airtel serious about doing business.
                                To top it all, I get calls to pay my outstanding bills for the past two months.

                                The latest mail from Airtel received on 3rd May, 5 days have passed and no update.
                                Dear < >,
                                Greetings from Airtel!
                                With reference to your Airtel Broadband application RTBLR7200240-N-R towards the activation of a new broadband connection, we regret to inform you that due to some technical constraints there will be a short delay in processing of your request. Our team is working to resolve it at the earliest.
                                We will get back to you with an update in 5 days.
                                We appreciate your patience and assure you the best experience as always.
                                Warm regards,
                                Airtel Broadband Team

                                Below is the list of mails from Appellate...pretty useless department of Airtel. Maybe the technicians are more helpful. This is the message put on the Airtel wall on 23rd April.

                                I need to contact the authority above the appellate, since they are least helpful.
                                These are the mails sent to them over a period of 2 months.

                                The number of calls I have made, not being able to help at all.
                                What does it take to just terminate broadband and continue with landline.
                                The people I have written and maybe spoken to at appellate include : Alex, Naveen, Jaswinder, Brinda, Jesira. And i refuse to believe that there is no one managing them and they are the highest escalation authority.
                                Everyone asks for 48 or 72 hours, not one soul in the organisation can do anything before that...to date, I would have received a million apologies, part of their script with another line, I understand the inconvenience you are going thru. NO YOU DON'T
                                Lets see where this reaches and how soon things work.

                                Hi Rakesh,
                                Please note : No one has updated me with the resolution...please do not create records to mislead people

                                I am still waiting for a resolution.

                                Hi,

                                How do i take this forward...i have not received any resolution as yet.

                                How do i escalate this to the next level. Can i file a case with the Consumer redressal forum...

                                Very Very angry right now...disgusting attitude, pathetic service.
                                Karishma,

                                The acknowledgements come very soon from Airtel, no action thereafter.

                                I am writing here only after posting on Airtel INdia and Airtel Presence Fb page has not yielded results.

                                I am looking towards a swift resolution, swifter than 48-72 hours that you ask for every single time. Please count the number of 72 hours that have passed since the 21st of February or for that matter 8th of April...mindblowing number for a issue to go unresolved.
                                Speaks lengths of how seriously Airtel takes Customer Service.

                                Look forward to a swift resolution.

                                      Hi, i have paid 6 months advance amount of 7240 for new connection. After taking advance amount airtel has told that they won't be able to provide new connection in my area. Airtel told they will refund my money which i paid in october 2016. Since 6 months i was sending repeated mail to airtel customer case email and not getting any proper response. Each time they will respond and tell that they are looking into it and issue will be resolved in next 72 working hours, after that no response. When i send a follow up mail again same response our team is working on it and issue will be resolved in next 72 working hours.
