Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I have a prepaid airtel mobile connection with the details as below

Name: anuradha v
Mobile: 984*177

I was not in india for the last 6 months and i came to know that the number has been deactivated since it was not recharged in this time. i was not aware of this rule. please note that i have been using this number for more than 5 years and i am back in india now. all my friends and relatives have this number stored. i need this number to be activated again so that i can use it. please help me with this issue. i have called customer care and emailed them as well. but there is no response from their side.

Hi

My airtel postpaid number is [protected].
I raised a request for cancellation of this connection on the 6th apr 2016, reference number 68723849.
Although, i requested to close this connection it didn't and later bills were still being generated i was but to pay the generated bill amount for next two months (As till that time i was under an impression that connection has been closed apparently it wasn't), upon the payment of which i was promised that my connection will be closed still it didn't and today[protected] again i received another call saying there there an amount due from this month's bill. Is this how airtel intend to do open network? This is outrageous, airtel is making me pay for the connection that i intend to close by not closing the connection even after request being raised, i haven't been using this number since feb!
I have raised another cancellation request today again (Reference no.[protected] please do confirm that my connection will be closed and that no more bills will be generated. Please consider this as my approval for cancellation.

Sushant

Hello team,
I have purchased broadband + fixed land line plan with airtel – 1099 plan with 75 gb free internet. the line was purchased about 15 days prior.

However till date my fixed line connection is not done and it’s an horrifying experience that i have signed up 15 days back and still i haven’t got my land line number up and running.

I have called up the customer care and given 2 complaints till date, tough all is in vein. i have called the executive, who has fixed the broadband but he as well kept me rounding and not yet fixed the land line.

I urge my problem will be resolved asap as this is just not done. more so ever the irony here is, i’ve received a welcome letter from airtel but i haven’t got the landline fixed.

Dear sir / manager,

I am following it up from last 15 days, with continues mail and calls to your call center. i get a call for you executive and that there is no response and any update.

When he is getting internet speed 4mpbs+.

I am staying in same address same building ground floor.
Why i am not getting the same speed. because i am not able to browse lost of website. and we not

If need i can send you one more details of other neighbor aiterl dsl no. reference, he is also getting internet speed of 8mpbs form the same junction box where my connection is.

This is has conformed from your airtel line man and his team lead, who attended my service call last time that 4mbps speed is available in the same junction box and my connection it can be upgraded.

So i request you to upgrade my internet connection to 4mbps immediately.

Looking froward to hear positive reply.

Thanks & regards

I have been an airtel a/c no 11458333 triple play especially iptv user from day one. further, i have a fair understanding of the pros & cons of technology aspects to do with iptv vs dth. while in the initial phase there has been issues to do with poor reception due to copper connectivity, now transformation is happening across the length and breadth of the nation with optical fibre connectivity to enhance the broadband speeds as well as to enrich user experience. the union minister for telecom, mr. ravi shankar prasad needs to ascertain why operators like airtel are unable to augment their bouquet of high speed internet services especially in the national capital region of delhi???

The truth as it unfolds appears to be that operators are narrow minded with short term focus and want to make a quick buck by installing mobile towers which is a proven threat to residents like us due to radio magnetic waves that are bound to kill us in the long run while the operators with connivance with the government want to avoid capex on ofc deployment that has slightly long gestation period for roi. as such it appears there is only terminology twist from the government front in promoting digital india initiatives while unable to comprehend the sustainable business models that ofc can propel in the long run. wire-line i. e. fixed line is the proven solution world over and not wireless as being advocated by syndicated efforts of the service providers exploiting the naïve understanding of the government institutions.

A high speed broad band connection can not only increase the gdp growth of the nation, it can improve the quality of life of each individual, cities and the connected communities in the ecosystem.

It is unfortunate that operators are focused only in book building and brand recognition and lack every aspect in creating a customer delight.

I had personally written to mr. gopal vittal who happens to be the head @ airtel for this iptv vertical, but the mail id bounced back and is conveniently routing to a customer support desk.

Further, the customer support executives are trained parrots who doesn't have a clue as to what to respond and they care a damn about retention of a customer. airtel helpdesk has confirmed that upon cancellation of the service and not migrating to the dth offer, the refund will be processed and credited after 45 days.in my case, i have a major advance that i had maintained assuming the service provider a reliable player and now to return my own money, airtel needs 45 days. what an irony and this is ease of business in india... regulatory bodies please wake up from deep slumber and act now!!!

We have requested for add on connection on 4th july and till now no proper response from airtel dth team, they have promised to do installation in 1 day on very first call from marketing and sales dept. after that they did not turned up. we did couple of follow ups via calls and emails, unfortunately no success due to irresponsible behavior from cc team. also the agent is behaving bad and closing our call/tickets without resolution.

Kindly assist and help us with this situation.

Hell of service from airtel to a lease line customer!!
Imagine what could happen to broadband!!
Link was down for 5 days and none of the top management is ready to reply email to it's customer.
Whatever the words you write, no even bothered to call or reply!!

Pity on those management and management employees!!!
At least road side layman is better than those of white colour airtel top employees who drives office in sedans/ luxury cars.
At least layman responds to complaints / arguments but not airtel top employees.

My plan 599-CORP

I have been charged a booster plan without my consent.
for the period 11/06/2016-10/07/2016

Also, there has been an escalation in my bill amount over the months, with my usage being the same

There is no valid customer complaint number for postpaid mobile complaints.

Hi,
I have a postpaid connection on number [protected]. I was abroad for a few days and made the mistake o[censored]sing Airtel internet for about 10 minutes once. I came back to find a bill for 66000 Rs! My complain is that when my credit limit is clearly mentioned as 7200 Rs in the bill, how can you charge me more than this amount?

As per TRAI regulation [Direction No.301-27/2005-Eco. Dated 27th June 2005 and 07th June 2006]

"When the usage and other applicable charges reaches 80% of
the credit limit, intimation to this effect shall be provided to the
subscriber. The consequences of his usage exceeding the credit
limit including the possibility of disconnection shall also be
informed to the subscriber.
iv. On receipt of the intimation, the subscriber shall have the
option to make interim payments in whole or in part or to
restrict his further usage so that the credit set for him is not
exceeded. "

Dear sir/madam

I am prateek srivastava located at lucknow up east.

I am regular customer of broadband airtel services since 5 years. I am also using its prepaid mobile service and dth service since last 7 years.

I have preferred only and only airtel services and i am its loyal, regular and old customer.

I have preferred airtel brand and have always promoted it to my friends and colleagues. Almost 20+ of them are using it regularly, but right now i am very much upset with its services.

I had requested on 30th june 2016 having reference number[protected] and account number-[protected] and landline number - [protected] to shift my connection to new location.

Airtel customer care accepted my new address and committed that my new connection will be shifted within 5 working days. So i believed them as usual.

But they did not responded to me within the time period neither they called me for any information, after 10 days they setup the wiring only.

I called them 100 times but they responded to 5 percent of it only.

I am a software developer and my most of the clients are overseas. I have lost financially of $3000 and my professional relations as well.

My landline phone is working properly but net connection is not which is the most important. Today they called me and finally replied that they will not be able to provide internet connection despite the fact that their network is present in this area.

Is this the way airtel behave with its old loyal customers???

I have believed in it but now they are not even thinking of providing any solution.

I will be highly thankful if you kindly take this complain very seriously, take appropriate actions and provide me connection as soon as possible in my new location (C-3/84 virat khand, gomtinagar-lucknow-226010 u. P) as i have already shifted there and spend too much money on shifting.

I am a postpaid user and I have been paying airtel heavily every month but i dont see tower when i am in my office. internet fluctuates every second. network is very very poor in such a corporate area like RMZ Ecospace bellandur 560103 Bangalore

i can never make calls and text on time and this is affecting things a lot!!
My number is [protected] and i am totally unsatisfied with the services airtel is providing despite of such high call rates.

Thanks
Aniket

Dear sir/madam

I have airtel post paid mobile connection, my no. is [protected].
I paid its all bills in time, from last year, i observed that i am getting
Exponential high bills while i am not doing that much calls and nobody except
Me using this no. then i checked with airtel relationship centre, they said
That you activated some services for which you are getting charged.

I said that i have not activated/subscribed or requested for any other calls or
Ervices, if there is any pls. stop it immediately, because i only use mobile
For incoming and outgoing calls, nothing else.

Airtel store located in gamma-1 greater noida the staff Mr gopal doesn't know how to communicate or what this was the worst experience i ever had at airtel . Mr gopal the way he talked to us was not at all expectable and he had all the guts to say go and complain about it. i had gone their for sim exchange i.e upgradation of my sim to 4g i had existing airtel sim and mr gopal was firstly issuing somone a fake sim with someone else adress and when i asked him about it he didn't answer then when my turn came his words was go back home your work wont be done over here

I am an airtel mobile data user for more than a year. this month, i recharged for different recharge amount of rs.22 and rs.123 (night time data 12am-6am). to my surprise, 2 new data accounts got created instead of crediting the 3g data to my existing 3g account balance. airtel customer service informed me that to use night-time data account balance, i need to restart my phone after 12am and the night-time account balance would be used automatically. but, the night time balance is getting incorrectly deducted from my day-time 3g account. i have raised this concern to customer service, nodal as well as appellate authorities who are not addressing the issue. they are neither crediting back my lost balance nor do they have any resolution of how to use my night-time account balance. airtel is cheating me of my money as i have recharged and have the data balance but unable to use it. this night-time account also has an expiry date. the calls and messages from airtel just mention that the recharge data balance has been credited to my account but the problem is that this account balance is not getting used. there is no way for me to switch to the night time account and airtel is not switching to it automatically after 12am.
