Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I have been using airtel number [protected] for so many years and all of a sudden my number was deactivated lat month and been given to some other person without prior intimation. When called the customer care I was told that since there had been no incoming and outgoing for more than 90 days the service get deactivated automatically. However I have been using airtel 3g and there is also talk time balance in my account. I retained this number because I liked the services even though I moved from my home circle Andhra Pradesh to Delhi. This act of carelessness deeply shaken my trust on airtel. This is not at all fair practice to deactivate the number without prior notice. I have many transaction linked to this number and now I am left in confusion and insecurity about my personal details. I demand an explanation for this ungratefulness from your end. And even after deactivating my number why is my airtel app still showing my registered details. There is no transparency in your way of dealing with customers. You made me regret my trust on airtel and I may never opt for your services in future.

DTH box from airtel hangs and screen freezes at least 10 times in a day. HD channel packages get activated by themselves. Customer care is inaccessible as call disconnects automatically after sometime without any response from executive. So what that means is, pay as much airtel asks for if you have large amount of money in your prepaid balance. Airtel customer care is worst you can start channels from application on mobile but cannot stop same from mobile app so that you need to call customer care which cannot be contacted. If airtel ever listens request them to make mobile app work both ways to start or stop channel and change these hanging dth boxes.

Respected admin
I wsnt to know that how can i check my data balance. Weather i use a code for checking balance than i got a message of a 1024mb data in your account message but while am checking in airtel app tjere is no data in my account. Please solve my problem. Am so fed up fr this it's from last 2 or 3 months. I also added a recent screen shorts of my balance showing by airtel app and by *121*2#. Please solve it hurry.

Sir,
I am a post paid connection holder of mobile no.[protected]. Whenever I make call the call charges are never reflected on the screen. Moreover a few minutes back I made an international call and asked the operator to let me know the charges but he declined stating that the charges would appear in the monthly itemised bill. What policy is this? Moreover my amount I had to pay every month would be Rs, 449.00 pm but now it is Rs.512.00. please clarify. In case of continued non-transparency I would have reconsider switching over to other operators.
Truly,
Munmun Basu

Wrong billing done by company on International roaming. After deactivation of services, they charged me huge amount which inspite of many reminders not resolved. I got it activated from 3rs to 16th Sept. Though I was out of country on 21st sept but this services were not required however charges were levied when services were deactivated. Not able to resolve

I got a new Oneplus 3 mobile from Amazon. As per the Airtel offer on Amazon e-commerce website there was a 15GB free data bundle offer with this phone for Airtel customers.
The phone was purchased on 6th Oct 2016 and the data bundle offer was not provided. In spite of regular follow up with the Nodal and Appellate teams the data was not provided into my prepaid account.
The complain no for the same is CHBNR[protected]

I have port into airtel network on 30 June 2016, it provided very cheap services as pertaining to network issues, no assistance from the customer care executive,
When I requested to port out on 30 September 2016, they denied my request saying I have not completed 90 days... even though I have completed 90 days (30 June - 30 sep). The said that I have activated my sim on 12 of July 2016.
Today's again I have made a request i.e. on 15 octomber 2016. The request for port out has been canceled by airtel saying again the same reason that " I have not completed 90 days. You sim was activated on 18 July".
Airtel senior executive NILAM, (Mumbai, malad) said this so.!!
First I was told that I have activated simply on 12 Jun now they are telling that, I was been activated on 18 June. Airtel executive is jus telling lie..and not letting me to port out from airtel network.

Dear airtel team,

Good day!
As seen from the below email and for the past one month i have been getting calls from one of your call centres every alternative day regarding plans. Once i accept one offer the very next day someone else calls from your call centre asking me to move to a higher plan which is marginally costlier by approx 100 rs for 10 or 20 extra gb who has no idea about the plan which was confirmed by me the previous day. As you can see from your database my plan is the same for the past half a year ie 8gb/2ms. However one thing interesting among these calls is the inability of the call centre person to send an email confirming the same plan. The service number they send is of no use. I suppose airtel has become such a big company that it can no more listen/respect its loyal customer (I am sure you can verify the same from your database). I am well past requesting / waiting so i kindly request your esteemed company to do one of the following :-

1) move me to 60 gb/unlimited - 4 mb/512 kb : which was last promised to me.
2) in case the above is not possible:email me the postpaid amount pending along with the termination application.

I also request you to only email and not call me regarding the above requests as i have learnt from the previous one month that a phone call with your esteemed company is of no use

The mobile network of Airtel FCA = 1159 -C -Block Near 48 FARIDABAD 121001. Are really poor there has been no Network of the 2 Day The network is lost cell faild problem per Month Incoming & outgoing cell not recvied My number [protected] & [protected]

I have applied for Airtel Broadband connection in bangalore 560037 area on 28-Sep-2016, I have submitted the required documents and also made the online payment of activation fee of 1000/-. (Application Number - TBLR7183311, Transaction Reference Number - [protected], Bank - ICICI Bank, Date - 28-Sep-2016). Even after continuous follow up, no positive response from airtel. Some day they say Technician will come tomorrow and install, and some day they say no data available and some day connection not feasible. I do not understand what's happening. I just got frustrated with their responses and demand for refund of activation fees. For refund also they are least interested and no one is ready to take up the refund request. Feeling very helpless on this. I am giving a try if this forum can help me get refund of activation fee of 1000/-. I will make sure that I never consider airtel for anything and even in my circle.

Thanks

I have airtel prepaid no, lot of time I observe airtel deducte 1.09 Pisa per minute, today after 1 hours trying to customer care after I have talk to airtel customer care executive ms Smitha, mainly they don't have a proper answers for customer, today I have call Vasai road (Thane dist) to Thane means local call but airtel deducte 1.09 pise per minute from my account, and I told executive but she's not given proper answer

I did port 2 nos from Idea to airtel on 14/10/2016. The Plan I have offer Rs.199 with Local+std 600 min, but after getting port when I called customer care they said its 500 min not 600min. Regarding port I got a call from [protected] this no. to port into airtel and he offered me 600 min in 199 plan.

Same thing had happened with me from idea previously, tele callers are making false commitments just to sale product and after porting air tel customer care said they cant do anything now.
