As per my postpaid plan, I am entitled to 1GB 4G data and post that unlimited
2G. But after the consumption of 4G data I am not able to connect to Internet.
I get errors like "Network connection lost" or "Your iPhone is not connected to
Internet". As suggested earlier by customer care executive, I have already tried resetting my network
settings and switching mobile data to 2G. I had registered a complaint
#67462110, which is currently in resolved state but I haven't got any
resolution(Hats off to service). They gave me 4 days ETA to resolve the
complaint so I was forced to opt for smartbyte plan. Now when I have exhausted
smartbytes, I m back to page zero where I can't use my 2G internet.

There is no proper network in Airtel, both voice and data .. I am having this problem for long time and whenever I am asking them they will tell no issues from their side, change sim to another phone and try .. I tried in many phones and still the problem exists.. No proper response from customer care executives too .. I asked the executive to transfer the call to some manager . Then One person named Uday, Manager from Santhome branch chennai, attended the call and what a response from him .. Wow bravo .. **** response .. Is this the way to treat customers ?? Just because we are dependent on them they should not treat us for granted .. Even now I am raising his complaint through my Wifi network not from mobile data.. If this message is notified to Airtel or if some one is checking this, pls take necessary steps .. I know this is like putting a stone in sea, nothing helps .. Already raised same complaint some days back but no proper response.. Jaihind ..

I am not getting any network after 9pm to 7am and on weekends in my house. I am not able to get any internet service also during this time.

I am K Kolappan, subscriber of airtel
mobile no. [protected], Tamilnadu circle, would like to bring
the following for your kind judgment and action.

On 8th Dec. I received a SMS on this line stating that the
line has not been used for more than 90 days and hence to
recharge my line within 15 days to avoid suspension of the
line. Though I have tried to recharge couple of times, due
to system problems I could able to successfully recharge on
20 Dec. an amount of INR 50/-. But when I checked my line it
was showing "SIM card registration failed" message. On the
same day I contacted customer care and informed about the
same. Subsequently Customer care asked few details and that
too provided with a request to activate my line immediately.
Surprisingly I was told by Customer care that my line has
been permanently disconnected on 13th December, which is
well before the 15 days period given to me. In my several
further follow-up with airtel, they asked my alternate
number so that they will call me to resolve the issue.
Though I had given my alternate numbers they never called me
and instead later they informed me that the line has been
reallocated to other customer. Later I have sent many
reminders, but airtel is not responding. hence I request
your intervention and appropriate actions in this may help
millions of customers who were becoming victims of such
service providers.

Here my concerns are summarized as;

1. Why did airtel disconnected my line on 13th Dec., though
I have recharged within the given 15 days time...?
2. If my line was disconnected on 13th Dec. (as informed by
airtel) how could it accept the recharge amount...????
3. How could airtel allocate this number to other customer,
while my issue is pending???
4. Why airtel didn’t call me to settle the issue….???
5. How can I utilize the pending amount in the line…???
6. I am loosing all my communications/bank
alerts/notification.etc...to which airtel to compensate me
INR 1000/day from 13 Dec. until the line is activated.

This is Devender from Lucknow.I have fed up of Airtel services whrein everytime you people are deducting balance from my account by activating irrelevant services even without my permission.Is this the type of business Airtel does!!!.Simply you guys are looting us.I want my balance to be refunded ASAP on [protected].

Thanks.

Hi,
I am Ramesh Challa filing complaint on AIRTEL due to fails in services. Last month January I port my number from idea to airtel postpaid and port was successfully activated on Jan 14. I have provided all related documents (ID Proof & address Proof) and verification got successfully. From the next day onwards I.e, 15 Jan 2016 I am not able to receive incoming calls and messages. I called costumer care several times regarding this issue and visited to airtel store as well executives told to replace the same and problem will solve but it fails.

From past 15 days I am keep on trying costumer care and visiting store but executives are not responding properly.

I request consumer court to consider my issue and solve ASAP.

Below are my details:

Phone No: [protected] (Port No.)

Alternate No : [protected]
Email: [protected]@gmail.com

We took a new Airtel postpaid .All the verification is completed. Even then i am getting message saying that we are unable to verify the address after 2 days. and we went to AIRTEL store they are saying it as "NOT OK HIGH RISK PROFILE " .
We are sensing that after couple of days they may bar the service.
Date of incident :[protected]
Mobile Number : [protected]
Irrespective of visiting the store multiple times we are continuously receiving messages stating that your services will be bared as ur address verification is negative .
We know that AIRTEL will provide good service but the third party verification team are not behaving proficiently and giving wrong feed back which is making us loss lot of money as we are giving this number for many purposes in our daily life

PLEASE TAKE IMMEDIATE AND STRONG ACTION AGAINST THIS OR ELSE AITEL REPUTATION WILL GO DOWN DRASTICALLY

Dear Sir,

I had logged my complain in Airtel with complain id 67215632 about my internet usage. On 12th Jan I had received massage from Airtel that I had consumed my all internet data. The same moment I checked my data use in 121 and it was showing that I have used only half of the my data limit.
I have complained to airtel this regard and they confirmed me on mail that I have consumed my all data. I told many times to Airtel Representative that I have not consumed my internet limit but they refused to entertain. Even I asked the details where I have used my data but they didnt provide.
After my bill period when I received my bill it was showing that there were almost 1 GB data remained. Due to Airtel service I had to face problem. Please look

Airtel is reliable?

Reference: airtel digital tv hd setup box - id [protected]

I would like to lodge a complaint regarding my aforementioned airtel hd setup box service. It has not been working properly since few months. Please note the following:
1. There is a massive disturbance in all channels. Pictures get distorted or it get freezed for few seconds or a minute. The reception of network is not good. Sometimes it got blank.
2. Please be informed that this not an issue of bad weather. This problem has been occurring since few months even in best of the best weather..
3. Not only me but all my neighbors of same building are facing the same problem. (For eg. Mrs. Bandyopadhyay id [protected], etc) there is a common antenna for all.
4. We have complained several times to local airtel partner i.E. Mr. Debargar of "m/s anfield dth" but of no use. First we were informed that technicians are busy and cannot attend call for few weeks. Then we were informed that your mother company is not listening to local airtel partners. Your technician visited us couple of times but he could not solve the problem. He even changed (Upgraded) the setup box of my neighbor (Mrs. Bandyopadhyay id [protected]).
5. We are tired of complaining. It very harassing and unprofessional.

We want immediate action against such unprofessional company who does not believe in after sales service.

As per them it should have been in 4 days and its been more than 10days, the issue still stands their, and the worst part is, there has been no follow up on this. I have no idea if case is still open, anyone working on it or not. This is absolutely bizarre service from Airtel.
