Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I requested for airtel brodband services on 24.03.2016. I talked with the customer care regarding the same, she confirmed with
feasibility of installation in my area/location and on the same day executive visited for the documents and installation fees. I submitted
all the documents along with the installation(Rs. 1000) and security fee(Rs. 200). He assured about the connection
within 3 working days. After 3 days I talked with customer care, she told about some cable issue in my area which
will take some time to be fixed. I tried to reach to executive on the same day, he responded after several frustrated attempts. He falsely assured
me again that he can deliver the service by 31.03.2016 end of the day. On His assurance i bought the device (Panasonic Single line 2.4GHz kx -TG3611SXB Digital cordless Telephone)
which cost me rs. 1885 and i requested for the disconnection of my previous brodband connection. Now if i want to restore my previous Internet Service
Provider's services then also i have to pay Rs. 1500 which is quiet unnecessary as it happened due to your interference.

Almost 2 weeks passed and the service is not yet delivered. I request you to cancel my order as you are unable to deliver the services (which hardly takes an hour) and return my
documents as well as the total cost(Rs.4585 ) caused to me.

Total cost break up:
Rs. 1000: installation fee
Rs. 200: security fee.
Rs. 1885: Panasonic Single line 2.4GHz kx -TG3611SXB Digital cordless Telephone
Rs. 1500: Previous ISP's service restoration fee

Hi,
Please note that on19th of march i have been charged for using mobile data by vodafone whereas i have not used and i was out of station. Which is very much evident that while roaming when i am not activated data plan i will not be able to access internet. Whenever i am out of town i was not able to access as my network was reliance and moreover i never activated data.

Please note i will not make payment for that particular day i.E 19th march 2016 as it is not my fault. I have already complained to vodafone on the issue via e-mail.

I have received Airtel 4G SIM card 1 month back and from that time I have been facing many network connectivity problems. I spoke to many Airtel executives and Managers but none of them were able to address my concern.

Issue: I’m unable to make and receive calls during my office timings. I complained number of times but none of them were able to resolve it. I even took many duplicate SIM cards but I had the same problem. I even escalated to Airtel Appellate and Nodal team but even they are least bothered and didn’t resolved my issue.
They have even closed my complaint without my notice and without the resolution. When I asked them how can they close and they said that could be the issue was resolved hence they closed it. The service request number is 68455228.
I would say Management is least bothered in resolving customer concerns. I am using this number from last 8 plus years but they are least bothered.

I know how much my mobile is important to me because I dealt with client in an out and most of my clients got pissed off by calling me but my number won’t get connected. I’m so frustrated that now I’m switching to Vodafone.

I request you to kindly look this issue and take it further.

Recently I have shifted my house and it is within the same area.i want airtel broadband connection to b shifted to my new address.

old address : 13/1177, sector-13, vasundhara, ghaziabad, (u.p.)
new address : 2 D-49 B, upper floor, kamna vaishali, ghaziabad, 201010, (u.p.)

thank you

Hi,

I was an airtel prepaid customer 2months back and i changed to postpaid because of wrong information provided by the airtel person about the bill plan. I have been put into an expensive bill plan. When i raised a request with airtel to change my plan to the one that is said. The response i got is you will not be able to change your plan. So there is no other way left for me so i requested them to change me back prepaid but i didn't get any response from them.

Could you please help me in solving this.

Thanks in advance!!!

I am using Airtel post paid 'my pack' plan where I get fixed monthly mobile minutes and SMS by paying fixed monthly rent. Usage beyond fixed results in charges.

Company does not provide any self help system to get information on how many call minutes/sms have been used at any given point of time.

I have to email company every time to get this basic information. There is no standard process defined. Some executives will share information on single request. Others will refuse to share few times and then provide.

In latest development, company executives have refused to provide this information despite several requests and giving reference of past events of sharing.

Company's default policy is to not provide any self help system and block access to information, keeping the customer in darkness. This policy results in several disadvantages for customer
1 Not knowing how much is used, customer can easily overshoot limits resulting in high bill
2 Customer can not plan his usage as he does not know how much is used or remaining. This can result in under usage

I would request you to direct company to provide suitable self help system as in prepaid service or promptly provide information on request

Dear Sir,

I had registered a complaint regarding poor network issue (request no. 68566804/6857615) to airtel customer care. then there executive have just contacted me regarding mentioned issue and send me a message about that and said your problem has been resolved and said my handset has a defect without no any person coming at site. Before choosing there network there executive called me and give an assurance about best network. But this is a fraud and have completed what they promised.

Please solve this problem at an earliest.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

I bought airtel postpaid number in the year of 2014 and I am working in Karnataka .so, I often use this ([protected]) two days(sat, sun) in a week, if I reach Tamilnadu and I am paying unnecessary rentals every month for not using the sim regularly, its crossing more than 600 hundred every month. I planned to go for Prepaid instead postpaid.

I bought the sim at Coimbatore Lakshmi mills office(main office at Coimbatore) February 6th Saturday 2016 . I have raised a request to change my current postpaid to prepaid. The person I had a discussion on this, he suggested me to close all the open outstanding amounts and I did that too. after that he asked me to pay for new prepaid sim card(Rs.25 for 4G sim card). before I left that office I have enquired all the details. The person told me that it will get activated within two working days, but it didn't happened. then I started contacting customer care for the issue multiple time, customer care team told they will raise complaint on this and they told it will get resolved within 48 hours but nothing get resolved and I contacted that customer care team more than 5 times in that week.

Its been more than two week since I raised that request. then I lost hope with the customer care team, then I decided to reach the main office directly again

I reached the Lakshmi mills Airtel main office on 27th February 2016 Saturday and I met the same person again and he told "sorry for the inconvenience happened" and he told the issue will get resolved within a day...:(

but nothing happened...and my tracking cycle continued with customer care team by raising complaint and following up with them again and again...Nothing happened...Paying unnecessary bills every month for not utilized any benefits for that sim card plan..

I am registering complaint here someone from the Airtel team will look at it and resolve my issue.. I don't want any complaint numbers, will get resolved within hours, day, etc..

I need a solution...I am ready to pay my outstanding amount at any point of time..

Please resolve this as soon as possible..
