Unable to send PORT sms to the number 1900. i able to send sms to other contacts but not to this number. i believe airtel intentionally restricting me to port out.

I have recently ported my number from jio to airtel and I have been asked to call 59059 once my jio sim is deactivated. I have done the same but unfortunately the call gets disconnected stating that the sim is not registered to any network along with poor network signals and I am unable to make or receive calls anymore.

Hi,

I have recharged wrong number through google pay and i want to revert that can you please help me reverting this transaction?

Wrong mobile no. [protected]
UPI transaction id[protected]

I recharged my phone with Rs. 437 (Actual Rs. 455 but discounted in the app) on 25th Jan, 2022 through airtel app (Order ID.[protected] and until now its not reflected on my number. Next day, I raised a complain (Service req. No. CONRC3BLR[protected]) on the app and was waiting the issue to be resolved by the airtel but instead they closed the issue as resolved without any proper explanation and response.

My bank has already charged me on my account and airtel app doesn't even show in the last transactions on my number but they already charged to the bank as bharti airtel on 25th jan 2022. Why does the airtel tank customers issues for granted and keep them unattended while he is suffering with the service. Is this really that Airtel which was so good earlier but now getting worse day by day.

How does the airtel app resolved the ticket without solving the actual issue, it means that the company is playing around with customers issues and don't give damn to the issue.

On 8 January 2022, I applied for a new Xtreme Fibre connection and paid the amount of Rs.3543 as Yogesh (salesman) was there at the time of registration. On 11 January, the installation team said they have some feasibility issues and cannot avail me of the connection I requested for. Yogesh didn't know what was happening. I told him that they are not offering me the box. Yogesh said to me that my amount paid will be refunded back within 7...

I made a recharge on 30.10.2021
But recharge was no successful.
I got message that amount will be refunded in 7 to 10 days. But did not receive any refund. My order I'd is[protected]
Also one more thing to be added the ivr has no link to talk to customers register officer

I have opt for porting my Vodafone no I.e [protected], today at 10:07 am on 29th january 2022 I received a msg i.e “We care for you! Your number [protected] is scheduled for port-in to Airtel-West Bengal tonight at 23:59:00 hrs. In case you are travelling, please keep the new SIM[protected]U ready and insert the same once your existing SIM displays no network. Thank you.”
I did the same but the new sim is showing no service.
I want this matter to resolve now as this is my business no n i cant bare the loss caused by such idiotic work

My brother (Tamilvanan) )wants new sim card, so he approached Airtel showroom located in Kast theater next to Royal Enfield showroom.
he paid 300 Rs & got new postpaid sim card, from showroom sale girl named Sathya told him after 4 Hours just put the sim into mobile later ull get a call from Our side and they will come for verification.

My brother they what they instructed but he didnt get signal and call. he went to approach the store people regarding this issue but he was not treat him good.

We are consumers not bond labors are slaves. She told u are staying in hotel so that activation got cancelled.

i have a valid question before taking the application they need to verify the basic things right that too for post paid sim.

after few arguments she told she will provide the amount as another prepaid sim. why i should buy Prepaid already he has one prepaid sim exiting,

We asked refund but she refused to do that.

we want the amount should get refund.

I recharged wrong number can you please how to reverse that recharge amount to original number.Can you support on this issue

I have ported my number from VI to Airtel. VI sim got disconnected but AIRTEL SIM is not activated; SIM is not even detected by cell phone. I have been calling customer care multiple times. Response is that SIM is already active.

Respected Sir,
last Month( Dt[protected] My sim card ([protected]) suddenly stopped working without any prior alert or information from airtel.
As i am out of country and my wife was using my simcard. we reached to the airtel authorities for sudden stoppage of my sim card. they demanded a bunch of documents to issue and activate duplicate sim to my wife with all proofs and authority letter from J&K high court.
we provided all documents to airtel officials via ( softcopy) as well as hard copy of all of them ( approx. 20documents). A sim card was handed over to my wife on 4th jan.2022 but still not activated. As per airtel officials they don't have my email address in their database (system) that is why they can't activate my sim card.
Email is not ever demanded by them from me. email is not my identity / address proof. if it is not updated in their system this is not my fault. they are harassing me.
Please help me, as this is very important sim of mine this number is registered with all my bank accounts and other institutions.
i am chasing AIRTEL officials from last 40 days but they are helping me..

Please HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP

It is with so much dissatisfaction, frustration and hopelessness I want to bring it to the notice of the concerned consumer complaint department that Airtel - claimed to be one of the most trusted providers of telecom services is nothing but a BURGLAR in the name of a brand.

A brand that is now showing its true nature of monopoly to its customers in the name of terrible customer service, unnecessary charges and incompetent customer & billing support.

Here's my case and complaint against a “default data pack activated by Airtel” against international roaming WITHOUT our consent and then forcefully pushing us to pay the charges WITHOUT having a conversation/disapproval/dissatisfaction and even threatening the discontinuation of the service with immediate effect!! (The number which we have carried for 10+ Years)

Our service request numbers: (Also, attaching the screenshots)

Now if team airtel can check this, it would be prominent that a representative named Rafique (billing team) literally was so inconsiderate, disrespectful and insolent with my wife that I sitting by her side was shocked on how an employee can speak like this, especially when our complaint was not even heard and understood properly! Of course, a name that doesn't have a FACE! He was AIRTEL and all he wanted to say, hear, talk was that “we owe money to airtel, pay for your services or will be disconnected. Period.”

Anyways, we had hopes, so we tried 121 again, to have a meaningful conversation. (Screenshots and time spent on these calls are attached!)
But to our surprise, other than call waiting, and non-meaningful repetitive discussions and fake promises, the needle on the case didn't move.

With (Ishan and Taniya), supervisors we spoke to, we were finally given a consolation that till the time your complaint and ticket is not resolved you will not be charged late payment fees but I don't think, automation is helping brands like Airtel here! They never look back!

While the regular bill was paid and disputed amount was on hold, the new bill has been charged with late payment fees (bill attached!) despite of being told that the case is open.

I sincerely request the concerned parties to look into the case and suggest a way forward here.

Kindly note:
We have paid the bills and cleared the unnecessary charges/fees added by Airtel because there is no hope of resolution and due to monopoly and threats, we had to pay!! As we cannot afford to lose the number.
Case is: Airtel charged us international roaming fees, without our consent of getting any such service activated, over and above - applied a default pack everyday, again without our consent.

As far as we understand even TRAI guidelines requested all service providers to inform consumers as soon as international mobile roaming is activated? Article from Sep 2020 (https://www.livemint.com/industry/telecom/trai-asks-telcos-to-keep-internationa...⇄

Here’s the funny argument by the team. So my other number 8826*****7, (again airtel!) was with me switched on all the time - same travel, same location, same duration but was not charged with these fees as the team said “the other number did not get a latch to a network, hence charges didn't apply, and the latching is a random process. It may or may not happen to a mobile number!”

Really??

With more than 7+ Airtel services and products being used by us, we truly wish to Boycott Airtel and its services and move to a better service provider.

(All screenshots attached. For the airtel team, all customer service requests are associated with complaints against the number 987*****21)

I am unable to receive call after switched from pre-paid to postpaid, when someone dialing my number its shows invalid, i complaint many times to customer care but problem was not resolved ...

Dear Team
Urgent airtel xtreme is a big tension [protected]
On 29th Dec, 2021 i have applied for airtel xtreme plan. By giving 590 online as installation charges which will be recvd me as a cash back in next 6 months.with 1 month free of any speed plan plus no rental bill for my d2h connection for lifetime..nor any other hidden cost with no lockin period.
Second month in case, i want to downgrade my plan from 799 to 499...it can easily happen by calling at customer care or by airtel thanks app..(these are words and terms n conditions informed by your sales person- Mr. Vipin [protected] ( same for this we spoke over call at 121 and discussed everything in conference with Mr. Vipin & customer care team member serial request no.[protected] and mr. Vipin promised me and customer care team agreed upon same as in case of any wrong commitments by him, he will either refund my 590 or in case, next month, koi bhi extra bill aata hai ( as if i want to downgrade my plan or d2h rental, he will bear those charges ) hope everything clears to your team...you can check call recording of 29th dec 2021 at 4.16pm with customer care team with mr vipin in conference call..( screenshot of call made)

So i wont bear any hidden amount... i will pay only for that thing which mr. Vipin told me while selling xtreme broadband to me.

Now again on 28th Jan 2022, when i checked my airtel thanks app, i am shocked to see that 186.60 rs I need to pay by 5th Feb.. for what these charges are levied on me..?

I won't pay any extra amount..wrong info provided by airtel for selling airtel xtream plan..why will I bear losses? Airtel is always sell plan by giving wrong info..

Mr vipin now not picking my call ...but at the time of selling, he told me..he will their for each n everything...

Kindly correct my bill details..I only Pay internet charges jo mei use karungi..else I don't want to continue with airtel internet nor airtel d2h(discontinue kardiya tha Maine reason was again wrong info.n plan rental was more...)

Number Deactivated after postpaid to prepaid migration

Please fix this asap.

I have asked for deactivation request of my airtel connection from Nov 10, 2021 but airtel customer care said they are facing backend issue as some migration is happening and they cannot deactivate my connection against I kept calling them every 2 days but no resolution. On 17th they finally raised a deactivation request and now they are charging me for those 7 days.
I even asked them proof of acknowledgement everytime I called them but sadly they don't give any but still I have mailed them on 14th to keep it as a proof of request of deactivation.
I spoke multiple times to customer care and asked explained them regarding this they also assured I need not pay bill and they have raised a request for clearing the bill.
It's 3 months now and still the bill of 70rs is being showed as pending. Ki dly help and take strict action against them for not giving importance to customers.
