Hidden data deduct

Address: Bharti Crescent, 1, Nelson Mandela Road, Vasant Kunj, Phase II, New Delhi, 110070

Everything is fine in Airtel but one thing is very bad that sometimes 1.5gb is not used and the message comes that you have used 100% of your data, today you have used practically 1gb and the message has come that you are using 100% data. Have taken it is not only in my sim or mobile, almost people are facing this problem in other telecom companies, no such problem is found, Airtel use that data speed is good in it...

I had bought an airtel sim back in 2012 in Tamil Nadu. I have been using this sim since then. I currently reside in Dehradun. I am unable to make outgoing calls and I have been facing this issue since 3 months now and then. I am just able to make calls to airtel numbers. And when I try to call airtel customer care number (121), the automated voice speaks in Tamil. Atleast it should be in hindi or in english for all the airtel sim users regardless...

I emailed Airtel 2 months ago to disconnect my broadband connection. They called me and asked me for a reason for disconnection and then forced me to move my connection to safe custody instead of disconnection. I explicitly asked and they confirmed that there would be no charges for safe custody. Now they keep sending me bills every month. When I called them to ask what the bills are for, they say that these are safe custody charges. I asked...

Address: Sector 66

I have an Airtel Black connection with my wife Ms Satabdi Bose's number [protected] added to the plan as a postpaid connection.

This is really very frustrating and unprofessional from Airtel to deactivate/ barred the number (i.e. [protected]) for all outgoing calls without any appropriate justification and prior notice. We used to pay our bills on a regular interval and that too without delay or after the due date. Till date,...
