Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi,

I am visiting my hometown in post ogla, tehsil didihat, district pithoragarh. I have been airtel customer for a long time now. But sorry to say airtel service in remote area is horrible.
-there is no 2g, 3g coverage in this area
-signal strength is also not good
We can help airtel if they want to install the towers in this area.
Looking for a quick resolution.

Regards,
Dinesh

Please block mobile no [protected] as my maid has stolen along with sim card and application detail form so it is difficult to track as she was using from last week. So please block it very urgently

Hi all,

I have an existing airtel fixed line and broadband service bearing account no. [protected]. I have requested to transfer my airtel service from bangalore to chennai (Ref #[protected]. I received a call from an airtel rep stating that the new address does not come under airtel service region and informed that airtel fixed line/broadband service can not be provided in the new address. I did inform the rep that i have already enquirer regarding the service availability in my new address and the local airtel rep confirmation on port/service availability in the apartment and that he will be able to provide me service within 2days if i opt for new airtel connection.

In-spite of my information the rep went and told that they (Rep/back-end team) will not be able to help me out with the transfer of the service and informed me that i can take a new connection from the local rep i wanted airtel service and asked me if she can process the service disconnection from her end.

I requested her to cancel the transfer request that i have raised as i will be using the service in the current address and will raise a new request to transfer the service to my parents address in bangalore.

The airtel rep has process for service disconnection and i am now unable to use the service.

I contacted 121 and found that my service is disconnected (Not sure on how airtel can disconnect the service with out a confirmation/information)

121 rep informed that they will be able to reactivate the service and raised a new request reactivation (Req #[protected] and told that i will have to provide address proof/photo proof document for reactivation and the process will take 5 working days not sure why i will have to provide all the doc again and wait for 4 -5 days to get my services back if airtel had disconnected the service and this makes airtel un-trust worthy for relationship it has with its customer.

Not sure if i will have to continue with the service provider who doesn't care for the customer request and service connectivity. As airtel is happy to let go the customer it has and the customers of airtel will have to run behind airtel the services/requests/connection availability and etc...

I request any one from airtel to look into this issues and find a fix for this kind of issues that airtel customers are facing.

I have asked airtel repeatedly to disconnect the land line and broadband services. They have refused my request and will not process my security deposit refund or generate a final bill.

The airtel rep said to not pay the final bill as aired cannot refund to an international bank. This I have complied and now they are holding my account hostage.

I first made a disconnect request may 27 and asked that they apply my security deposit towards the final bill, per the discussion I had with the airtel rep when I opened the account. This request was refused and the did not close the account.

I did the same on June 22 and requested the account be closed June 25. They have repeatedly refused to disconnect the account and apply the refund as requested. This was the instructions I was given by the airtel representative and they are refusing those instructions. I was told that they cannot refund my deposit to an international bank.

This is in reference to account land line [protected]

Than we contact to customer care of airtel they says amount will be credited in your sim but amount will not be credited. Than we another trying to customer care and ask to return my balance. They says amount will not be credited it's yours fault.

(1/2) thank you for contacting us. Hope the concern related to your airtel mobile [protected] has been resolved to your satisfaction. Your ref. No. Is cbdmo[protected] registered on 27-jun-2016

This is my 2nd complain against airtel in just 1 month. Service provider who claim to be transparent and customer focused.
I am dealing with this case since jan 30th 2016 where in i have asked for broadband connection and made a cash payment and provided the documents. After following up for several months i have raised a fresh request for the same and this time i made a payment through cheque.
I was following up with them for both the request. Finally i got a call from mr dhiraj that my previous cash payment will get adjusted toward my new connection request so i can cancel my cheque. I also got a confirmation email from airtel that they have received my payment and i got my connection.
But again they have added 1000 as installation charges in my bill. So i am back to the square one. Again i have started email chain explaining the same issue again attached all the documents but same response that they get back to me in 4 days or 5 days etc etc. It has been 10 days already.

Mr dhiraj is just vanished. Not picking up calls and not responding to emails at all. These so called customer service specialist are actually there to increase our pain nothing else. When you need them they are never available.

I strongly recommend that go for some other service provider but not airtel. Pathetic customer service.

Issue is pending from your end since dec 2015. You charged incorrectly and airtel billing system is faulty and always billed customer while it is not in use. I raised complain and keep sending reminder but your team closed most of the sr without customer approval.

If you do not have any solution then please let me know the process of refund.

Hi, this is vishal. I have taken one airtel postpaid mobile connection on 23rd june 2016. The number allotted for me is [protected]. I bought this from sai enterprises airtel store, near chattarpur temple, new delhi. The executive told me that the sim will be activated within 24 hours at any cost. Now today is tuesday 28th june 2016. As of now the sim is not activated. I have visited airtel store more then twice and contacted the 198 customer care more than 5 times. The reply i received is that the address verification on my connection is not yet done. It is not my fault. I dont know why this much delay in airtel for address verification for a single postpaid connection. I thought of taking another postpaid connection from airtel for my mom. Now i dropped that idea. There is no meaningful reply from the airtel store and customer care also. All fake commitments that customer care is working for 24 x 7. I have not received a reply as of now. I got frustrated too much with the way they treat their customers. One customer care person is saying that address verification is not from our side they always said that ask this question from your airtel store

I am not getting sufficient network signals to make calls. People are unable to reach me as most of the time my mobile remain out of network.

my Number : [protected] (Antim Parmar)

Kindly look into it as soon as possible.
Below is my full address :
C4/2, 2nd Floor, Acharya Niketan, Gali No2.

Request is to install network tower in my village. Cause there are so many customers are in our village that are using airtel but we are facing problem with network coverage. So please increase the range of network tower that is 4 km far from our village or install new tower in my village. Details are given below.
Village : muradwala dal singh

Dist : muktsar
State : punjab

I have made rs.500 transaction on 29th may to add max hd all south top up mar-16 top up for 2 months on my dth subcription with account no.[protected]-001. But to my surprise the package has been expired with in 3 weeks on june 19th and the respective channels has been terminated. When i checked i found the airtel has added this same top up 2 times and hence the amount got charged 2 times instead of 1 time.
I have called airtel customer care 3 to 4 times and even send mail to [protected]@airtel.com and also to the nodal office at 'nodal. [protected]@in. Airtel.com' but no action has been taken till now.
Every time i call consumer call they promise a callback soon to resolve this, but to my disappointment i haven't received a single call from airtel on this so far. Attaching the screenshot on airtel online as a proof on the double charge made my airtel.

I have been reporting from the two months there was network disruption and i was charged for the call drops every time and i was charged for even a 1-10
seconds where i will not be able to talk to other person or vice-versa

iam having this problem form the past 4 months with the bill issues and since because of this issues i was not able to use services well and
requested for resolution and still waiting for it and so i didn't pay up my bill
from past month and now the services was disrupted and i was asked to pay full payment including late payment charges.

since because of the Network issues, i have not been able to use my services completely namely ( Voice calls and Data), but still i have been charged for the same.

Request you to check those dropped calls on my bills in months of APR-June where there was lot calls dropped below 10 seconds.

Since there is no proper response from the CS or the Nodal team & appellate officers, i am writing this to CCF.

The TRAI has been saying not to charge the customers for the call drops and i have been facing the same from the last months and with the same being billed and forcing me not to opt for other networks.

Now you disconnected my network service from past 15 days, i have not utilized single incoming or outgoing call and this period of network disruption has also been charged.

Complaint NO: Ref30967832

My phone was on charging when i received a text message from av-omlife stating "fashion bunny service has been activated".

I was totally surprised as my phone number is in dnd list and i never received any information about the said service. I also never activated the service. It was activated automatically without my consent.

This has happened to my family members and my friends too.

What is going on? Why is airtel stealing money from our balance? Please help.

Hello Sir,

Just want to escalate an issue regarding my airtel post paid number [protected]

This sim card just failed. It has no physical damage whatsoever. Still looks brand new. But its not registering on network. hence, I am asked to apply for a duplicate sim, which is all very difficult for me as I am very busy. It also asks for a Rs.25 payment.

The sim is fine, un-tampered, un-swapped.. Still looks brand new. I havent played with it to damage it.

So, if it fails just like that, remember, the mistake is yours, not mine. Why should I take the burden to rectify it.

I would like to port out my Airtel number to some other networks. Would you please give me a Unique port number, as I cannot do this from my sim right now.

Hi,

I have sent a Portablity request to change to another network for the subject mobile numer due to high call charges. I have received a call from [protected] and they said they are calling from airtel. And they have given me a offer like, all local mobile calls will be charged 30 paise per minute and 3 months validity. I said ok and agreed to continue on airtel. But the benfit has not been added to my number. So I have call 198 and raised complaint regarding this, they said we will add the benifit to your accout within two days. And i have received a message from airtel on 22 June 2016 and they said the benifits has been credited to your account. But the call charges is still not reduced for me.
Am being a customer for more than 6 years and worst customer service experince ever i have ever had today while i contacted the 198 service center. They are saying like am cheating while i have all evidence.
