till today i have not received balance.

I have been charged for the past six months since I advertising been out of the country it being deducted from my account. I want this service to be deactivate immediately and refund my hard earned money.

I don't know how this service has been activated but unfortunate for me this has been going on since forever when I go to the airtel service center they say they cant help me. when I m out of the country I m scared to recharge since as soon as I recharge they charge me for the same. I cant even send an sms to stop the service.

I had ported from Vodafone to Airtel Postpaid and this is my first day worst experience with Airtel.

At the time of the porting Airtel Executive promised me for 8GB 4G data and unlimited free voice calls all over India for a final bill amount of 540 rupees (inclusive of taxes). But, now cust care exe. says 3GB data and I will be charged for 630 rs.

I'm stayiing in Mittanamalli, chennai-55.Recently I changed my Airtel prepaid number 3G SIM card to 4G SIM card on my iPhone 5s which one I specially bought 4G internet service. But I only getting 3G signal.I call 121customer service, they said no 4G connecting to my Area if so why don't they mention before I changed my SIM card .Ive been cheated and lost my money by topup 4g data pack.Again I tried and submitted my complain.They are saying I can issue this complain to any media.

Dear Sir,

In my earlier mail and with over telephonic conversation I already inform you that I am unwilling to continue your broadband service as well as telephone service with immediate effect but till date you are not disconnect your services.

Hence, you are requested and reminders to disconnect the connection with immediate effect.

Thank you

I, Paras Gupta, am customer of Airtel digital Tv since past 2 years and each year I have faced similar issues. Last year I did not pay much heed to it, but I now have realized that these DTH companies are looting us and we need to do something about this. So this year, I am gearing up to take legal action against them. Below is the description of my issue faced this during past 11 months.

Issue Description:
I renewed my connection on 27th March 2016, DigitalTV ID [protected]-001 with Rs. 4752 for Mega Standard 11M+M pack and DigitalTV ID [protected]-002 with Rs. 3012 (discounted price on second Tv connection for same pack).
Firstly, they have revised prices in mid-of the season and accordingly my 12 month subscription has been reduced and my connection will be suspended from 17th Feb 2017. I.e. subscription reduced to 10.5 months from 12 months.
Secondly, they have activated few Top-up packs on my connections without my consent or request. I wrote emails to them as the customer care is never reachable. To my emails, I have received responses such as, “packs are activated with customers request and consent only; this has been confirmed by our customer care”. When I ask for proof and call recordings, they ask me to get in touch with customer care, which is never reachable.
Action Sought:
Firstly, I want my complete 12 month subscription on both my connections as promised on 27th March 2016.
Secondly, I want refund for all the top-ups activated without my i.e. customer’s consent.
Thirdly, I request you to compensate me with an amount of Rs.10, 000/- for the extreme stress and mental agony and time wasted by the customer care unavailability and unacceptable responses.
In case you fail to take these steps within 15 days from the date of this letter, I would be forced to:
● Ask my lawyers to file a consumer complaint against you for gross negligence, lethargic conduct and deficient service, as well as additional compensation for mental agony and legal costs;
● Ask my lawyers to consider the filing of a civil suit against your organization;
● Start a sustained online campaign spreading the word about the appalling level of service that I have received from you; and
● Issue press releases online and in the print media.
I hope that I do not have to take these steps and look forward to an amicable resolution of this issue.

Mam plz deactivate may airtel.no. [protected].My no. is already not in use by me. It's sim card is damaged. But the bill has came to my house even if it is not in use. So I request u to deactivate my this no. Thnx

I applied for Airtel 4 G broadband connection with Airtel. They sold a device to me for 4 k and activated a sim. But nobody came for installation . After waiting for 10 days I called the customer care but they told that number itself not activated. But finally after 1 week continuous follow-up they came and fixed it.

The connection worked for only 15 days and suddenly stopped. Registered a complaint and they sent some guys to check. The service engineer told me signal lost and range is not there in this area so he ll spk to higher officials and do something .

But none came after that. Fedup with Airtel and team I decided to give up . Exactly two months after that I started getting calls in my alternate number for payment . They charged me for 3 months some 4.5k. they are giving me explanation that it's a 4 G and fixed cost. What stupidity is this ?? How can even they charge for connection which lost signal from their side.

From the day one I applied the connection Airtel didn't call me even single time. How they are calling me for payment and that too for the connection which worked for only 15 days. I paid 1.5 k for connection and 5 k for device. 6.5k loss for me.

And within few days after my discussion with customer care I got a call from their legal team . They started threatning me if I don't pay I will be filed a legal case.

I want to teach them a lesson. I'm filing a case against them in consumer court for cheating my 6.5 k and threatning me .

This complaint is regarding charging telephone bills for connection that is not being used and was discontinue 6 months back. Back in Aug 2016 I had filed a request # 71308870 to shift telephone connection from my current location to new location to be moved. This was not attended for more than a month inspite of repeated followed. Finally the request was closed mentioning that connection cannot be provided to location I am moving in due to technical infeasibility there. Now I am charged with rentals for last 6 months and being followed up on daily basis on my cellphone. I am being threatened of dire consequences from the company.

I would like to have hthese calls stopped and not charged for rentals as the shifting of connection was deemed technically infeasible at company's end

Thanks,
A N Shah

I am a retired army officer using airtel postpaid mobile [protected] since long time. I am permanently settled down at defence colony Mamoon cantt (chatwal) I visited airtel outlet in mamoon cantt today for changing my mobile no from bangalore (karnataka) to mamoon (pb) however the sale executive demanded cash Rs1000 from me and told that it will be kept as a security deposit but they refused to give any receipt for this amt which is not understood . Moreover behaviour of the staff was very rude and unethical. May I request you to look into it. Thanks and regards.

Dear Airtel Team

Hi All,

I bought the airtel prepaid datacard with airtel sim No: [protected]. I used the same till Feb 2015. Meanwhile I was using other modes of
Internet. I had not used it for over a year. And now I recharged yesterday for Rs. 265 and tried using the dongle. Internet is not connecting.
And I inserted the sim to my mobile. It is not even detecting the airtel network. And when I called the customer care. They informed me saying that the sim is not in your name. I was using it for over 3 years and I have all the transaction ids for recharging through online and receipts.

Please let me know how my number is given to some other person. And also why I am not able to used it now.

Many thanks Ravishankar.

Hi,

I was holding Airtel postpaid sim and I had submitted request for conversion of postpaid connection to prepaid connection. The postpaid sim is disconnected in first week of January 2017. The airtel office gave me a prepaid sim in which I am not getting network at all. I have visited the airtel office for more than 10 times and called customer care for more than 5 times. Nobody is taking the responsibility to activate the prepaid sim. I am having the prepaid sim which was given in the airtel office. If I try to call, the calls are not going and I am getting a NETWORK INVALID message. Every-time I call airtel customer care, some new person talks and I have to explain the entire issue to them. If I ask them to connect to a particular person who was handling this issue before, they tell they dont have the option to connect. Its been more than 3 people now who told they will callback me in 48 hrs and resolve the issue. Till now I have not received any call from airtel. This is the very important number which I am using for my professional as well as personal life. I am facing lot of issues since nobody is able to connect to me.
I dont have the particular number active from 35 days. I want the prepaid sim to be activated.

The 4g broadband internet from airtel has a good speed only issue is that internet should work. In starting days we used to raise 3 or 4 complains stating that there i no internet access. But in current month have already raised it 5 times. You raise the complain in the morning by evening u will get the internet working by night again no internet.
The complain system is so pathetic that no mail or sms is received with the complain number. If by chance you note it down and check the status of the complain it would be closed. Hence adding up to your frustation.
The technicain half of the time dont even inform when they fix the issue. Neither they contact so you just have to try and try to see if its working .
Considering the brand name the services are pathetic and not transparent at all. Its highly dis statisfying that there is high charge for 4G internet and you pay the bills even for the unused bandwidth.

So I gave plenty of emails to airtel wallet( or payment bank) customer service([protected]@airtelmoney.com) and they gave me a reply saying to give proof(which I did) and still nothing. Then I got a reference number from Amazon(who initiated the refund) saying the amount must be reflected on my account by now(14-feb-2017), but still nothing. So I gave the reference number to the customer care to which they said they have registered the complaint and that I will get a reply but still no reply. Please refund it ASAP.
Complaint reference number is 286549.

On 8th Feb I have done my bill payment for my airtel prepaid number [protected] but the money has been Transferred from the bank but payment is not done yet so kindly tell me when you refund the money
