Address: KG3/62, ground floor, vikaspuri, New delhi 110018

My name is Sumit and I live in Vikaspuri KG3 block. (New Delhi 110018)
We people here are fed up with Airtel persons. From past 6 months they are coming and dig the road just outside our home and never ever close that. Twice we had paid some people to close this. No one can imagine what happens in rain- no one can see those digs and scooters get slip there cars cannot cross these digs. No one can enter the home when its rain or wet outside due to the wet mud. Today 3rd time they came again and started to open that dig. First time I had stopped them and they moved to dig some another place. They always say we will come to close but 6 months are not enough to close?

We have a 6 month kid and all dust comes inside the home. I need to take precaution for this. No one can enter with slippers now and air you know already so polluted and for a small kid you can understand.

please look into this matter on priority.

          Address: Basti ( Uttarpradesh )

          I am using an airtel post paid sim ([protected]) with a monthly plan of Rs.249/-. Since 18.12.2021 evening, there has been no network at all on the sim. I have contacted the customer care service, but the only solution they had to offer was that i have to visit the nearest airtel store and get a new sim as it seems to be a sim issue . Despite making it clear to them that i was not in a position to go to the store, they offered no other solution. so i went to the store and on 20.12.2021, evening I was told that We don't offer Airtel postpaid duplicate sim. I tried all of my city store, I didn't get my new sim. On contacting the customer care representatives, they asked me to go the store again. I dont see why I as a customer should be the person who goes through all the trouble to get it working again, when there is no fault of my own in this entire episode. The customer care representative have also made ot clear that there is nothing they can do and that there is no possibility for things to get sorted out. I am working professional and in my current position I do WFH, I require my phone 24/7 for official purposes. I have already had to face issues for these three days that my sim hasnt been working for. To wait further is simply not acceptable. Is this what im paying for my postpaid plan every month ?

          I tried almost two cities Airtel Express store but haven't got my new sim card. It seems to be impossible. Airtel service is very poor and customer satisfaction is pathetic.
          I am currently at Basti ( Uttar Pradesh ).

            Hello Sir, I hereby inform you that without our permission / knowledge, Airtel technician has placed the Internet junction boxes / wires installed in our Compound Wall, which is very disturbing to us and spoiling the beauty of our house. Attached the photo of the same.

            Moreover, I am planning to do some alteration in our compound wall surroundings, hence request Airtel to arrange to remove the Internet Junction boxes / wires...

            I accidentally recharged to a number, Instead of recharging to a different number. I tried contacting airtel using WRR Service but I got this reply
            “you are not authorized to use lapu reversal service. Please contact to circle coordinator.”

              I just changed my iPhone from iPhone 11 to iPhone 13
              I am not able to activate iMessage and Face time and keep getting message that it could not be activated.

              I changed the sim from post paid to prepaid and added money and the iMessage and Face time got activated as soon as the SMS was sent and Rs 5 got deducted.

              I have spoken to customer care at Airtel and they have been doing basic trouble shooting and not able to solve the problem.

              Have spoken to apple team also, and they are saying that it is a carrier issue as changing the sim can solve the problem,

              As per them the postpaid sim is not able send the activation sms to apple, due to which the activation is not happening.

                Address: Hyderabad

                I'm an IT employee due to my brother's accident I tried online payment banking at that time I have only one option that is airtel payments bank. I'm using it from last 8-9 years i trusted as a result they are cheating now.

                My known friend CREDited 20k in my account and after that i tried to debit that to pay to hospital but the payments bank rejected morethan 10 times. Next day also i tried to call them they said my account is blocked and I've to submit my aadhar with sign and photo copy of mine. I'm sharing from last 5 days and they are rejecting from 5 days.

                It's funny they are saying my aadhr is not valid and I've to send valid aadhar with signature.

                Yesterday they told me that one of their executive will call but no one called me and today i called them & they are saying they received only one aadhar proof from 5 days.

                I don't think this is a good way of treating CUSTOMERs. Kindly help me to get out from this kind of ###.

                        Made the payment to Airtel thanks app on 16 December 2021 for landline broadband of amount 1178.82. Payment done successfully but recharge is still not.
                        There is some kind of issue at Airtel's end however, Airtel discontinued my services even after I had made my payment.
                        I checked with my bank, payment has been deducted from my account for Airtel account, there is no issue at my bank's end. I have transaction Id for the same.
                        Moreover customer care agent shamelessly asking me to pay again. Why should I pay again. Where is my money? Why my internet is still not working.

                            I was in a google meet meeting when the server went off. I could not even message anyone on whatsapp nor open Google. Luckily I had other sim operators too. My location is in Jadavpur, Kolkata. See it does'nt occur again especially at office and school hours.

                                  I applied for and got a duplicate SIM for my prepaid connection, owing to signal issues in my existing SIM. I visited the Airtel store at Ashok Nagar, Chennai and got the work done.
                                  Date[protected] pm.
                                  The old SIM got deactivated on Saturday night, while the new SIM is not yet activated (even after 36 hours).
                                  Please resolve at the earliest.

                                    Airtel is charging IMF in their DTH service whenever there's a breakin in service, there's no specified period of breakin which seems inappropriate.

                                      I am facing the issue of port out sms. I want to port out of airtel and get into bsnl network. Customer care is telling that only recharging with unlimited plan will allow is to send sms. I don't want to waste 179 rupees just to send sms and get out of this network. Don't know why airtel isn't following government orders. And why do I have a normal balance if I can't send SMS ?!! Open exploitation of poor people by airtel and government isn't being serious about this company's policy. Please make them change this option.
