    I have recently recharged my number with the revised and increased tariff ₹479 to avail data, voice call and sms services. As per this plan I should be receiving 1.5GB of data, unlimited voice calls and 100 sms everyday. But the data renewal doesn't happen everyday and it continues to calculate the previous day data pack. This is shocking and totally outrageous. I wonder why Airtel not meeting the plan standards of the company as promised.
    I have lots of critical deliverables should be done by using the data balance but unfortunately couldn't complete because of this incorrect and poor data usage calculation/renewal services of the so called telecom giant Airtel. I am completely depressed and push into the state of mental trauma of this negligence.
    I dismay if this happens to all the consumers not only to the data but also voice call and sms daily renewal routines.
    I wonder Airtel or Poortel.
    Please fix ASAP.

      I got my prepaid number from the nearest airtel store in Bangalore and changed it to postpaid. I would like to change the ownership from the existing one to my name. Please guide the process.

              On 19th while comin to bhubaneswar from bangalore, my wife forgot her phone at home( @ bangalore).
              Since she was on work from home and we were stayin in odisha for couple of months, we decided to get a duplicate sim for her number.
              But that never got activated ( tried continuously for 3 days from 22nd to 24th). It got rejected due
              1.live photo not matching with their records ( this is what airtel xpress store guy said0
              2. ID invalid ( this is what customer care said on 121)

              Id card given for duplicate sim were aadhaar card( linked to this number) and Pan card ( which were issued 6 to 7 yrs back). There might be some facial changes during this period but how airtel is distinguishing them (strange)

              ok fine if they are not able to distinguish between then and now, there must be other ways to get it verified.

              Moreover me and my wife are on family post paid plan, mine being the primary number, her being secondary and another only data sim( this also installed in my wife's phone)
              If they can issue a sim with just a otp on primary number ( which is mine), there mst be some ways to get it resolved.

              Airtel guys on customer care are of no help.
              3 days of running to airtel store, caling 121 customer care, , tweeting to airtel are of no use.

              I hope this to get resolved asap..lot of thing pending coz of this.
              I have been paying this postpaid bill since last 2 years, with bill addressed to my mail id.
              I hope all this info is enough to get to a resolution asap

              Thnx

                        My sim got deregistered suddenly
                        I'm working overseas so I sent parents with my AADHAR card to sort the issue
                        But the service center says I have to INSERT a new sim and I should be present personally in the center
                        How can I leave my workplace and go to India for sim card

                        I'm ready to give my passport workvisa copy for checking my current status and ready to give authorization letter to my parents also to collect my SIM but Airtel is not replying to get me a solution

                        I mailed them...put a dm on Twitter yet no response

                        I want my sim to be active since all my WhatsApp banking transaction depends on that Airtel number

                        Currently when I insert sim it shows not connected to network
                        I even tried manual network selection...but no use

But when I try to get my membership activated by clicking on banner on Airtel App, the membership is not being activated. I sent email to Airtel. They told me to contact Amazon. When I contacted Amazon, they told me to contact Airtel.

                                  Network Issue in Qatar

                                  I have got the Airtel Prepaid SIM card from India 2 months back.
                                  A yearly recharge has been done in this SIM.
                                  For the first 2 months the SIM was working well.
                                  Suddenly one day the network went off.
                                  All types of trouble shooting done.
                                  But nothing happened.
                                  So I left it like this.
                                  After 2 full days the network came back again on it's own.
                                  Now after working for 15 days again since today...
