Airtel Complaints & Reviews

There is no network coverage in BHEL house, Siri Fort, New Delhi- 11049 since last 1 week. Mails have been written to Relationship Manager (Mr. Naveen Sharma)and [protected]@in.airtel.com but the issue still stands unresolved. There are around 250 users of Airtel connections in BHEL House alone and more than 2000 in all over Delhi NCR. If the problem continue to persist we may need to switch to any other network.

Hi there,

I am writhing this mail because i got some false bills for continuously for two three months, due to which i did not pay my bill for last two months. I have requested several times to customer care to check and fix this issue. every time they promised to fix this, but i did not get any resolution and get continuously false bills.and rather than fixing the problem they call and harass me mentally saying that i am not paying my bills. This is the last communication try that i am doing to airtel.

I have call recordings of airtel calls regarding this issue.

I am an airtel customer from a very long time, i have been using
3 postpaid mobiles
1 broadband
1 dth
i have always been on time regarding my bill payments and never been a defaulter, but the services provided to me are not upto the mark.
Recently i have been facing problems with my broadband, sometimes the internet is not working and sometimes my landline is dead.
Every month there is some or the other problem with our broadband for 7-8 days.
Recently i lodged a complaint on 25th may 2016 against my broadband, the local team contacted me and told to wait for 48 hrs for the solution.When i asked him regarding the problem he rudely disconnected the call.
(airtel local help technician - [protected])
after waiting for 2 days i again called customer care as the local help technician was not picking up my call, they put me on hold for 20 mins and in the end they had no idea what to do.So they told me to wait for another 48 hrs.
Again on 29th i called customer care and they told me there is some wiring issue but still there was no solution.Everytime my call was being transferred to a diff section but nobody knew what was happening.
I was even told that i will be getting a 30 minute call back from the cust care but no one called, i dont understand how does airtel employ such careless and lost people.
Since 25th may my internet and landline is not working and i have no platform left to complain.
So i have decided to mail a hard copy of this complaint to
airtel head office
consumer court
local police station
you people dont realize the situation you put your customers in.My complaints are not at all entertained and solved.
People are talking rudely and still i have paid my monthly bill of broadband today without any delay.

I had recharge Rs. 141 30.05.2016.. the airtel gave the special offers that was EC Rs 141 =650MB . So i recharged Rs.141. But the data was not added to data account. That was splitted as 3G and 2G. So i called customer care and i informed . She said ( customer care) it is wrongly done we will rectfy sir
But till now not done .so please help me for get my correct data to my account.

I had made a request for transferring my number from a corporate plan to a postpaid plan on 12 March, 2016.
As requested, I had submitted the request form along with the NOC, KYC, personal PAN card copy and Passport copy at the store -
Shop No 10 & 11, Ramniwas Building, M G Road, Naupada-Thane West, Thane - 400602.
This procedure was confirmed to be completed and i was informed that my new plan would be activated within 72 hours, which has not happened till date.
I made several calls to the call centre from where I got no concrete answer or resolution.
After visiting the store after 2 weeks, I was told that since my document verification was not done due to my absence at my permanent address, the request was not processed.
They then asked me to provide them with an alternate number and preferred time of visit.
I did not receive any call on my number or the alternate number nor did anyone arrive for the verification.
Since then I have been dropping mails to 121.in.airtel.com and a request no - SR69194727 was given, and my issue is not yet resolved even after two months.

I am very unhappy to know that you charge us reactivation charges post account suspension. As i understand that the recharges we do are for the next month which is a prepaid payment, how on earth can you charge me for not recharging my prepaid account?? Can anyone answer this? This has made me think that i should switch my service provider also for my three airtel mobile connections.

Dear sir,
My son activated action and arcade games in my mobile, many time i tried to stop, hence we sent sms "stop* to 155223, getting failure, so not able to stop the games, regularly they are charging 5 rupees per day and more, we are not knowing how to stop. We spend more than 1500 rupees. Please help us in this regards

My name is srinivas. My airtel prepaid mobile no: [protected] got deactivated on May 30th 2016 with out prior notice.
i would have recharged my mobile if i get some prior notice.
i have not recharged it for a while as i am on some international assignment for 3 months.
i am trying to recharge now but it is failing as the account is deactivated.
i want my number to be activated again

Dear team,

1. Name of the executive : vijay

2. Mobile number: [protected].

This person has promised the that if i port-in into airtel i will get 1200 minutes of talk time or 720 talk time along with 1gb of 4g data every month.
He said the data pack activation will be done in 48hrs of sim card activation. Till not activated data pack on my number.
And now he always "online" in whatsapp and i had chat with regarding the same. But if i try to call his number it says "this number is not valid".

I am asking you people why are you playing with customers making them "fools' by fake promises. Before port-in into airtel they keeps calling for the details and documentation. Once it's ported none of them in touch.

Do airtel people think customers are stupid or what...? Or you want cheat customers...?

I want call from the person who promised me.. As well as promise fulfillment.

If you people cant do that.. Then revert me with mail.

Regards,
Shankar

Well. Then no incoming calls for 8 days. You people donot understand but its loss of communication and loss of work. And airtel has never been helpful or cooperated. The customer service executives are undertrained and fail to understand a customer's concern. Moreover, there is no resolution and right from customer service executives to appellate officers, just harass the customers and waste their time.
I donot demand anything because i am highly dissatisfied with airtel. Just wanted to bring this to the light and am going to escalate it further. To notify you, i am going to discontinue all my services with airtel and change my network service provider.

Myself Goutham,
I was an idea postpaid customer from last 2 years, one fine morning I received a call from one of the airtel Executive for a postpaid connection and I found the plan interesting and I have submitted all my documents with port Number around two weeks ago and they said that it takes one week of time for network change.
As per the process idea has stopped services on Saturday but I didn't get any information from airtel people .I called the executive around n number of times for my sim card but no one gave any response to it. Again Saturday I received a call from Airtel asking me to submit documents again because they have misplaced documents.
Even though I have immediately send the documents expecting the service on Saturday as per your executive word.
Till now there are not providing any details ..
I am unhappy with the way airtel was caring about their customers.so I am mentioning the numbers for your reference.

I am changed this plan 225 to 149 in 29 may 2016 when i got the bill amount april cycle. I am mainly use std calls and lot of charged done in my bill cycle unusualy. Every month i got bill of 230, 220, 240 only but this time i got 364.15 rs bill it was too much. For may month cycle my unbilled amount for 5 days is 64 rs which i have to pay in may bill cycle. The unbilled amount i have received for plan 225. I have changed bill plan on 29 may. So then my unbilled amount of 64 should be waived off by may bill cycle. And for april month bill cycle there should be waived off some amount bcoz the bill is too high.

Please help me in this issue.

I was received the call from your customer care on 28 May. He said that I will be given to one offer for you, in this offer your plan has been changed, 35 paisa/ minute STD and Local. I am waiting till this time. Today, I have consulted the customer care, but, he denied. This is cheating and 420 with customer. If, you can’t reply within 24 hours, I will go to consumer court and social media. I have sufficient proof regarding your cheating plan. This is not fair.

I have subscribed to 3G top 1 GB Rs.265 through Airtel money on 23/05/2016

Please recheck the transaction and revert my Airtel money cash at the earliest.

68206448 is my service no and it is been raised on 9th May and I did not get any resolution or response properly from airtel. Every time some or the other excuses. They closed the earlier service number by telling some non sense stories and also when I request them to reopen they had declined to reopen and registered a new complaint. I also have another problem on the upgrade which was another type of short film.

This is the worst service they are providing to people making them fools.

I need a clean resolution and my next steps would be moving legally if this is not resolved at the earliest.

Please advise

Thanks

I had made a request to replace my old airtel set top box with a new one.
The service guy replaced my old set top box on 09/04/2016 and charged me rs 200 in cash for the same and told me that hd channels will be provided free of cost.
But however airtel started charging me as soon as a month was over from the day the new set top box was installed and i wasn't intimidated about it.
I had made a complaint on 28/05/2016 and requested them to stop all hd channels but the same wasn't done and i got charged for the same.
