Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Hi few days back i ported my mobile no in Airtel. for around 10 days the service was good but after that their service was very poor, they charge for 3g but is giving around 20kbps speed. sent them lots of mail to their customer care and applet officer also regarding poor performance of data connection but still not rectification done till know. every time they say i have taken the complain and will be solved in 3 to 4 days but after 4 days again one new complain will be registered and the same will happen again.
just feed up with their service and fake commitment given from all airtel person.

reagrds,

I have taken a new connection on March 19, 2016. Cash of Rs.1100 was collected with the required documents have been collected. Was promised installation within 3 days, to date no one has contacted me or installed. Service request was initiated on 24th of March 2016, request no. 65936258. Despite of all this nothing has happened. Shall attach the receipt of the connection.

I lost my SIM card after taking MNP from Vodafone to Airtel...then I was given another SIM by Airtel...its been 10 days and no progress and came to know that she noted my SIM card number after looking at SIM and writing it personally by her.I am missing lot of calls from my clients and other relations.

Hai,

Myself e.Suriyanarayanan using airtel service for the last 8 years, i have a complaint regarding bad customer service.

On (10/03/2016) i made a full talktime recharge of rs 320. After 10 days(20/03/2016) i made a booster pack of rs46 for 1ps/sec, i get a message that "your pack 1ps1sec_tn266qtp with local calls has been activated.

After few days i began to know that rate for every call is not as per my pack, i made a 1st complaint in customer service number they said that it is due to the database problem it will be activated soon. But it is not activated so i made the 2nd complaint i said, i didnt get any updation but they replied that your booster pack is not activated and the amount i refunded, but i didnt get any acknowledgement from your side about the refund or cancellation of mypack. Then again i made the 3rd compaint about my problem they said that we will reply and solve soon but still i didnt get any solution, what can i do ?

On 04/04/2016 received call from your customer support, they didnt give any solution and they didn't reply anything to me, they simply switch off my call before i complete my complaint.

I convey my problem regarding recharge issue and bad customer service to voice support, [protected]@in.Airtel, nodal authority, appellate authority. I didnt get any solution from their side.

I reply the message with snapshot against the ref.No: cbnrv[protected] along with the screen shot to you before 3 days, but i didnt get any reply.

Through mail, voice support in any ways still now i didn't get any solution from airtel, it is very displeasure experience from airtel.

I have a Airtel broadband connection in Kalyaninagar Pune.Account No [protected]. Since 1st April 2016 the internet is not working. I have filed so many complaints but the issue has not been resolved. The support guys just keep on saying that the problem would be resolved in 24 hours or 72 hours etc. But nothing has happened.

I never expected that Airtel is so incompetent to resolve its technical issues and also very deficient in services.

Hi citizens, good samaritans,

Fixedline no [protected]

I clearly do not agree with he my current data usage report published.

I had opted for so called 8mbps - 60 gb - secured broadband connection.(Wpa psk secured)

The usage report & customer support executive says "i have completed my 60gb quota!" which is outright rubbish & absolutely insane. Since i barely used 30gb a month ever. Reason: the max. Sd card capacity being 32gb

My only request to airtel was to furnish me with the complete data usage report as per the promise made by your escalation level- 3 manager. Via

[protected]@in.Airtel.com

I got a ridiculous response again with the elementary, dumb instructions rounding again back to the basics again to have this checked in "airtel my account" report.

Simply was not able to get a smart executive who is able to understand this basic concern.

I am facing mobile network issue from last 3 months at my below home address. No issue at billing address or at office.
Already raised 3 calls through customer care & provided all required details and alternate no. [protected], also made them understand by explaining for around 30 mins for each calls to invidually person.
They promised to call me before closing the calls & also ensured that i will get correct resolution, engineer may visit site & verify before closing the call.
Unfortunately for none of the tickets i didn’t get any call, neither network issue got resolved. Tickets were closed simply updating ‘network issue has been solved, thanks for contacting airtel’.
This is totally vague & i am surprised to see that leading cellular network provider in india don’t care for their even after repetitive follow up, reminder, multiple calls.

Please let me know how to escalate this issue to get a permanent solution. Also confirm if you are unable to solve this issue, then i will complain to company & ask for mnp.

I ported my number from docomo to airtel thinking it has a better network but to my surprise it is a company that has pathetic customer service and cheats it's customers.

I tried to recharge my prepaid number through their website for amount rs 200/- on the 13/02/2016, but it showed as a failed transaction. I then re-tried to make another payment of rs 200/- which again failed. I have both the failed transaction emails from airtel, but to my surprise the company has deducted the amount from my credit card.

When i contacted the customer care immediately after the sms alert from my bank for amount deduction, i was informed that the amount will be refunded within 7-10 working days. It did not happen and again i called them back to inform them. I was again told that the complaint has now been lodged and the refund will take 10 working days since the transaction id's are still open.

As usual, refund didn't happen and then i had to escalate the matter to nodal officer who claimed that one of the transaction was successful on my mobile account and the other is an invalid transaction id. And that he cannot do anything. He was trying to prove that i'm lying even though i have proof (Credit card statements and airtel emails for failed transactions).

Last customer reference number conrc [protected], although there are a few more.

Almost 1 month plus, i now contacted the appellate officer who keeps me on hold for a long long time to research the issue and then informs me that he has escalated the matter further and i should get revert in 3-4 days time. The whole conversation took 35 mins which was a chargeable call.

Now after 4 days when i didn't get a call on the 08 april 2016, i called the appellate officer number just to find another officer who is unaware of the matter and puts me on hold. He comes back and says that due to technical problem he can't assist me and i will need to call back on monday, i.E. 11 april 2016. It seems i will be spending more money on calls just to recover the amount company owes me.

It is so annoying that a company like airtel is resorting to cheating customers just to fill their coffers.

Please help me.

Airtel seems to be avoiding customers as much as possible. As of today there is no way to directly get in touch with a customer care professional from a non-airtel number. I am overseas, and my international roaming (Already activated and paying rs. 149/month) is not working. However, there is no way to contact them now to try and find a solution.

It appears that they are trying there best to stay away from existing customer complains.

We are having several connections of Airtel postpaid at my office some are under CUG plan and several are on the name of individuals. From last 1.5 month I am complaining Airtel for poor voice quality of mobile incoming and outgoing calls and internet network. We are unable to receive even incoming calls at our office premises i.e.; C-14 Sector 7, Noida 201301 due to network issue and because of this our business calls getting hampered a lot.

I am chasing "Airtel's Appellate Delhi Team" on appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com for the same on daily basis which is the higher authority of Airtel Team, but they give very poor response, whereas we are platinum segment customer.

Now team is giving assurance that we are trying to install new network tower in your area and we trying for permission from the local authorities and it will take time for 90 days approx. and it is not sure as well.

I am not able to understand why they are not able to install network booster at our site which take minimum time and cost and problem is also gets resolved.

If there is any way to resolve the problem please let me know. I’ll be very grateful.

For last three months airtel company has been adding extra charges in my bill, saying that I used their 3G data pack and the worst part is they say that I am the one who insisted to add that data pack in my monthly plan. In December 2015, for the first time I called for activation of 1GB 3G pack but in about 10 days I used the whole pack so company called me back asking if I wanted to continue with another 1GB or discontinue the plan, well I made that very clear that day that I don't want another 1GB of 3G data and also requested to put my monthly plan to basic (as I am using this special sim card which was being provided to all central government railway employees and their families and my father happened to be one, under some kind of contract between Railway and airtel. this sim card have a basic plan of Rs 300 in which we got 300 main balance and 2GB 2G internet data ). After that day I never called back for activation of any 3G data plan but only to complain about extra charges that they keep adding in my bill. And they don't even call back in response to those complaints, they say they will but they don't call back for resolving the issue

My fixedline no[protected]. I have paid Rs 799.22 via online internet banking.The amount is debited from my account but not credited in airtel. The transaction no.is.IGOBTRJJY8 on 6.4.2016 at 16.11 hrs.
Kindly credit the airtel bill and oblige.
Yours faithfully

Yesterday at around 11 p. M, i had recharged 1gb 3g data valid for 3days on payment of rs. 94 through ptm service and used approximate 160 mba during yesterday 11pm to today 11 am but i am shocked, when i have checked my 3g balance and found zero. In addition, airtel not provide 3g speed even after fulfill all required measures whereas, i had received the 3g speed in same network, same mobile/sim just few days back. In this regard, i have communicated with customers care executive through customer care no. 198 just few minutes before but neither she has solved my problem nor satisfied with her reply.

As the 3g pack, only valid for 3days and just 1day to left, request take appropriate action at the earliest to solve my problem so that i can be utilized my data pack completely otherwise i will compelled to file a consumer case against airtel.

I vijay kumar ([protected]) activated rs.398/- auto renewal on april1 and amount was deducted on april1 . But services of rate cutter was not activated, so i had to recharge from outside and when approached to the airtel recharge person, he spoke to the consirned person and said will get the refund in 2 working days. Till now i have not received any refund and not even able to customer care support by calling 121. I would like to hear response from the higher official, if not will be forced to move to consumer court.
