Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Airtel has updated my name wrongly in airtel account even though i have gaiven correct details. when asked, the customer care took complaint and asked me tp provide necessary documents which i did and said it will take 3days to solve it. After 20days also no response.i called them again and they said 3days more is needed.i called them after 5days they are still telling we need one more day. during this time they are putting me on hold for 20 to 30minutes just to give small detail also. i am calling them everyday from 1week they beg me for more time and if i shout they are putting me on hold for 20 to 25minutes everyday. they are not at all servicing the customers. all of managers spoke to me saying its been escalated to highest level and it wil get done. but when i call all they do is put me on hold for 30mins and tel me they need more time.i want to sue them till the end

Hi,
On 15th September 2016 I applied for a new broadband connection, paid 1000 rs as installment charge filled application form to a person named Anand (no: [protected]) who was wearing airtel tag.The above mentioned person is not attending to any of my calls from then, on contacting customer care they informed that though account is created, doesn't show payment of 1000rs.This whole thing is delaying the process of new connection.I have the bill with me in which serial number appear as TBLR7156400.I expect you to do the needful

My Airtel Broad band connection number is [protected]. Every month we make payment for this connection on time however today when I have called up to Airtel customer care to register complain as my broad band connection is not working at all since past 3 days, according to them they are unable to identify any details in system using this number. How strange!! Few months before as well when I have registered complain for the same issue they have not responded me and after my multiple follow up they have send technician at my home almost after 8-10 days from day of registered complain. Today the worse thing I faced is Airtel customer care executive disconnected my call while talking as i was trying to register complain and blocked my number. Is this how the world's biggest open network (company demands but actually it is worst) going to provide service?? The number Airtel has provided us and through which every time I am registering complain suddenly they are unable to find that and disconnected my call. If they are not ready to take my complain then the company should know if they are going to send us any bill we will not make payment as I am not getting my service so there is no question of making payment. Airtel customer care service is the worst service provider (extremely bad) I have ever experienced.

Subject: Complaint on airtel regarding [protected] & [protected]
Dear Sir/Mam,

Name:Snehashish S
Prepaid numbers:[protected] & [protected]

I'm currently on roaming.
I'm able to get messages & use mobile data but not receiving calls & unable to call.

Airtel has blocked incoming & outgoing without any reason.

Incoming & outgoing for both my numbers are blocked by airtel.

Kindly, unblock it immediately & also look into it as this emergency

Note:Tried inserting sim cards on other hanset & also switch network to manual.issue still persists

Lot of members are worried that they can't reach me & neither I can.

Please resolve it immidiately

For the number [protected]

Today I sent a email to your desk to reactivate my number if I was given either 2.5 GB DATA or if you ca change my all freebies to 3G DATA along with my existing 1GB. Your agent called me and confirm me that it is possible to change all your freebies along with existing DATA 1GB. But after activation she informed me that it is not possible.
What is this ? Is it right behavior ? We want to continue with you but if you make us fool like this way how it is possible ?I have sent email to airtel.[protected]@airtel.com but no reply from them.

I have requested for port my No. [protected] from UP to Delhi . At alakhnanada airtel store I had given all my documents and requsted for port my No. And on 01.09.16 I have provided porting code to them but my No. Is not started on 17.09.16 again I visited the same store and they have taken my alternate contact No. saying that they will call me and my No. Will be activated but till now it has not been done and I am very annoyed with this kind of customer service from airtel.

Hi

[protected] number phone .
is stolen.
please deactivate it

I have been using airtel iptv since its inception and wish that airtel continues its service. The most important feature that iptv offers is access to recorded programs of 1 week duration and this was the basic reason why we opted for iptv.

Now airtel plans to shut down its services causing unnecessary inconvenience and expenditure on monthly subscription and limited access to recorded channels.

Moreover the Airtel has not complied with their commitment to install airtel digital tv services although I had requested for the same after hearing about the closure of iptv services.

I would like to have the airtel digital services installed if iptv is shutting down else the entire amount deposited at the time of installation of iptv may be refunded.

My airtel number was unable to receive calls from my sisters jio mobile.
Jio was confirmed that airtel not allowing lot of calls when she checked with jio.

When my sister called to my number she getting a voice message like the number is busy and this route busy even though my mobile is free condition so one day we have tested in same place where both the numbers in my home.
we have received same rejections like number is busy and this route busy.

A number(Jio) : [protected]
B number(Airtel) : [protected]

Please support us solve the issue with Airtel.

Suresh

Airtel has been fraudulently charging me for 8mbps data plan for past 12 months, where as in reality the speed supported by airtel cables is not more then 4mbps

I have been raising this issue for past 12 months and airtel team has been making one or the other excuse on pretext of checking hardware n switches

I received call from airtel technical support yesterday around 3.30 pm updating me on the hardware/cables laid in my society (flower valley) don't support speed more then 4 mbps speed and i have to downgrade to 4 mbps plan from my existing 8 mbps plan

He admitted to the fact that sales team from airtel are misleading customers and selling fraudulent 8 mbps plan & the cables/ hardware don't support more then 4 mbps speed

I have call recording of my conversation with the airtel technical support person which can be shared as a proof as and when required

So my claim for fraudulent data plans from airtel holds true and i have been cheated by airtel for past 12 month

Airtel has been fraudulently charging me for 8mbps data plan for past 12 months, where as in reality the speed supported by airtel cables is not more then 4mbps

This is really disgusting and like day light robbery on part of company like airtel by resorting to such cheap means of making money

I need reversal of 8 mbps data rental charged to me for past 12 months else i have to go legal way for resolution to this airtel's fraudulent billing practice

Airtel needs to be dragged to consumer court for misleading consumer and resorting to selling of fraudulent data plans

What about the billing waiver???

There is no mention of billing waiver. also your reply is sounding like readymade template revert... there's no mention about concern raised in trailing mail regarding airtel selling 8mbps data plan when the hardware is non-supportive in my area???

Your revert is vague and open ended and i have been listening similar vague replies since past 12 month

I need proper time-lines for resolution and details/contact of concerned person from airtel who will resolve my issue

You can't keep sending me such vague pre-drafted templated mail reverts with zero predictability on resolution and keep on fraudulently charging me rental every month for 8mbps plan when in the first place your hardware /cables don't support 8mbps speed

Subject: fraudulent billing practices and pathetic service from airtel broadband - [protected]

Dear airtel,

With reference to trailing mail exchange and for your eternal enlightenment i am sharing my problem and case regarding my airtel broadband once again

I am using airtel broadband for past 8 years & my no. is[protected]

My data plan is 8 mbps - 40 gb limit

I have upgraded to 8 mbps plan 12 months back and since then i am facing with slow browsing speed, frequent disconnections and unstable speed

All these issues have been vividly explained and proved to all the airtel technical support persons who were on inspection visit to my house

On 7th sept'16 happen to speak with airtel technical lead from pune vega center & he has admitted : non supportive hardware cables for high speed net in
Flower valley area (place where i reside)

All the technical support persons who inspected my connection at home also admitted to the fact that airtel cables in flower valley don't support 8 mbps data speed

It's really shocking to know??? - when everyone at airtel technical team is aware of the fact that airtel cables in my area dont not support 8 mbps data speed then how come in first place airtel is selling fraudulent plans of 8 mbps speed for past 12 months and cheating customers???

Airtel cust. care ppl call me from different locations and i have to explain same problem over and over again to diff. set of people. i fail to understand what is so confusing and puzzling about my problem. knowingly every airtel rep. right from technical to customer care acts ignorant in-spite knowing the fact that "airtel cables & hardware does not support 8 mbps speed in my residential area" and keeps on giving me false assurance to resolve my slow data speed issue. "this is like height of fraud and cheating customers"

As on date there is no resolution to my problem and i am still getting unstable data speed and the speed varies from 4.5 to 8 mbps randomly making browsing and surfing really unstable and problematic

I have categorically told airtel customer care that i am not going to pay aug'16 broadband charges (15th sept'16 was my due date) as i have been cheated by airtel for past 12 months by selling and providing fraudulent data plans

I am not going to pay any further charges for my broadband usage till the time my slow browsing speed issue is resolved

Hi there,

My complaint regarding slow browsing speed is still pending

I spoke to technical leader from airtel vega center, pune on 7th sept'16 and he admitted that airtel cables in flower valley society (place where i reside) does not support

8 mbps speed and he is looking into what possible he can do to address my concern

It's really shocking to know - when everyone at airtel technical team is aware of the face that airtel cables in my area does not support 8 mbps speed then how come in first place airtel is selling fraudulent plans of 8 mbps speed for past 12 months and cheating customers???

MY CONTACT NUMBER -[protected]

Dear sir,

This is with ref. to my service request no. 72420590 for landline number[protected] in the name of mrs. nirmala goyal (my mother). i had been provided the connection by one of sales person of airtel, named mr. abhishek (mob. no. [protected]). he committed to me that airtel will provide me a modem and a landline instrument free along with my connection (having call recordings of his commitment) that will be provided to me within 3-4 days after my connection gets activated. my connection got activated on 27th aug 2016. after 4-5 days i followed up with him for landline instrument but he said that it will take some days. i called him after few days and he said that the same will be provided within 1-2 days. every time i call him he says that it will be provided within few hours. after long follow-up he asked me to contact with his senior authority mr. sisodiya (contact no. [protected]) when i contacted him he said that he will provide me the same within few days but he didn’t provided it and every time i called him he use to say that it will be provided shortly. after a long follow-up both of them stopped receiving my calls and when i called again and again mr. sisodiya misbehaved with me and said that he will not give me instrument and i may do what i can do. i do have call recording of this conversation also and all the previous conversations. i again called back mr. abhishek and told him that his senior is not cooperating and asked him to provide me handset. after 4-5 calls he told me that some person with whom he has took approval for providing the handset is now transferred and now i need to visit metro tower office and request for instrument. further he asked me to request to mr. sisodiya only for which i out rightly denied. i asked him that i will escalate the matter than he said that i am free to complaint anywhere i want.

Dear sir, i request you that being a bank employee it’s not possible for me to go to metro tower for requesting and collecting a landline instrument. and further it is also not fair at airtel’s end to ask me to do so. i request you to kindly provide me the landline instrument and take necessary action against the above mentioned employees of airtel as they are hampering the image of company also.

I have already launched an official complaint against mr. abhishek and mr. sisodiya (ref. no.[protected].

Dear sir, i know that a small customer like me hardly matters for a big company like airtel, but i still hope for a quick and positive response from your side.

If you need call recordings i may upload them on any social media site and provide you the link or else i can provide you the cd.
