So please resolve this issue As soon as possible.

          I have visited airtel store for request for porting my number from Vodafone to airtel. I have requested for a prepaid number. I was promised the same.

          They have given a postpaid connection without my consent and when I talk to customer care they say I have to stay on the connection till 90 days.

          I have been cheated into paying high fees and not given the service i asked for.

            I 'd like to bring to everyone's notice that i had got a replacement sim card on 27th October 2021 and was informed that it would be activated within 48 hours. However it is extremely disappointing to note that it has still not been activated after 7 days. Also since my sim card has not yet been activated i cant do my bank transaction especially during the festive season. Request you to kindly look into it and resolve the issue at the earliest. Total duration for the whole issue from getting the new replacement sim card to verification took 1 month in total.

                            I initiated to add rs 1000 to airtel wallet
                            But it cane up as transaction failed but the money has been debited from bank account

                            "Hello! You have initiated to add Rs.1000.0 to your account 9********. Please keep the txn id[protected] for future reference"

                            Other than this message there is no other evidence that I even attempted to add money.

                            Also this is not the first time.
                            Earlier once i lost rs.49 and rs.129 but I forgot about it as i was in rush

                            But rs 1000 is a significant amount and I have made all attempts to contact customer service but I am not able to speak to a human.

                            Airtel only responds if we post on twitter

                              Requested new SIM card today afternoon (for [protected]) at Airtel Store (Sarjapur, Bangalore). I was given a new SIM card after giving the required documentation. My photo was also clicked for their records. The airtel representative assured that the new SIM would be activated within next 24 hours.

                              However, received an SMS in the afternoon stating that the request had been rejected and I need to contacted the store. (another trip to the store !!). Went to the airtel store in the evening only to be advised that they had sent a mail to their back office since my 'live' photo was not matching with the original photo and I would have to wait for their response. There was no assurance by when the issue will get resolved,

                              After much of argument, the Airtel store manager walked out to have the discussion with me. It was a heated discussion and at the end of it, the airtel store manager assured me that he will get the issue resolved by MOnday (1NOv21).

                              I have no option but to wait for next week to see if the matter will get resolved.

                              It is unfortunate that airtel service standards are such that the customer has to go with 'Airtel policies and procedures' even if the customer is having a direct impact. They do not seem to have an internal escalation procedure and as per the store manager, their back office team does not work on weekends.

                              Not surprising that their sense of 'urgency' is very different when selling a product/service or payment (I have been regularly paying monthly bills on time for the last 2 years or so and have a 'family' account)

                              At this stage, I only want the SIM card to be activated asap and no later than Monday, 1 November 2021

                              Matter remains unresolved !!

                              As the SIM card is not working, I cannot even port this number to some other service provider.

                              I am being harassed by Airtel and do not seem to have any recourse.

                              What do you suggest I need to do to get this matter resolved?

                              Matter still not resolved.

                              Not sure if Airtel believes in responding to complaints registered on this portal

                                        Esteemed Consumer Court,

                                        I am Debojit Dutta. I ported my postpaid connection to Airtel mid-September and also took up an internet connection with the same number. I was asked to make a payment of 6541 through Airtel.in which I did.

                                        This month I received a bill saying I have to pay 3900-something to Airtel. I am told I made multiple phone calls to ISD numbers which I did not and also via landline phone which I do not have. The call records in the bill go back to Sep 1, when I wasn't even using Airtel. I spoke with the Airtel agent only on Sep 7 for the connection (attaching screenshots of all the conversations).

                                        Even after multiple complaints Airtel hasn't resolved this. They keep closing my complaint.

                                        I want to only pay for the services I used. Also, want Airtel to stop harassing me for the bill.

                                        Regards,
                                        Debojit Dutta
