Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I applied for national portability from Uttar Pradesh to Karnataka.I got a call from airtel representative saying that my new sim would be activated with in 4 hours, even after 4 hours when it dint get started i enquired again they informed that it would be started next day morning 7 am, again it dint get start so i called again at 12 pm, this time they again informed it would start at 5 pm, but similarly it dint start now again i enquired at 6 and they gave me time for 8 pm ..then finally i again i called for the same and they informed it will take additionally 8 hours due to another technical issue. Even after 8 hours my sim is still not activated and every time they gave me assurance that my case is being escalated to supervisor but it had no effect at all. i am not able to make or take any calls since last two days and still stuck without activation.

What I feel about them is, No.1 in South India. Everything is computerized. System is capable to identify the Data usage, Line up or down, call log, etc. They can identify the excess usage and include the amount automatically in the bills (Computerized). I'm proud to say i'm Airtel customer for more than 12 years and using their service (till now) in Office, Home and Mobiles. Every one in India aware of Chennai Flood. I believe the people in Airtel Billing Department & Customer Care knows about it. Without any courtesy & smart they(system) sent a full Bill Amount to all customer. Even though they know that they took more than 15 days to rectify the issue in most affected areas. While i approach the customer care, i got surprised about their Business Plan. They will give waiver only to the customer who approached them and raise a complaint. Those who are not raise complaint are treated as volentery fund raisers to their company. I couldn't take this matter as normal. I'm asking on behalf of all the affected customer. where is the consumer Protection Department? what was the role? how this kind of companies are surviving without any fear about the consumers?

I am getting pre call announcements for every call that I make. Airtel is not providing calling service for free so how can they put ads and irritate customers. I have made complaint about this multiple times (around 20). It gets deactivated only for a day. Please let me know if you can resolve or I will be happy to port to some other good network.

Very bad torrent throttling by this isp airtel. Bunch of no-good throttle torrents. I'm mad at these gawars, giving bad plans with bad prices and now they have to throttle torrents. What is your problem? I start a torrent at say 1 mb/s. Soon the speeds get slashed to as low as 5 kb/s. Took a speedtest, ping was 600+ms (!), 0.47 mbps download. I have a 16mbps plan.

Few days back i requested for new broadband connection on your website. After some days i got a call regarding my request. Then one of your executive visited my house for documentation and for taking the money. I paid him 1000 ruppee cash. His name was 'AMIT'. His mobile number is '[protected]'. But even after 10 days of documentation, i haven't got any new connection. Moreover, phone of your executive who came to took money is switched off. Please do the needfull against my complaint. Either i want new connection or my money should he returned. I have attached pic of form which i received by him. This is not acceptable for a reputated company like you. I have called customer care helpline number many times but they are not interested in listening. Moreover since form doesn't have any "CEF number" your customer care guys are clearly saying they cannt help and my money will not be refunded. Being a new costumer i dont know form what is CEF number.

I wish to make the following update to my initial complaint:
My blackberry services was finally restored on the 27th December, 2015: 11days after renewal of my bis! The least I expected of the network was to have my 30days access start counting from that date. Yet I received notification that it will expire on 16th January, 2016. I therefore called the airtel customercare in Nigeria on the 13th January 2016 and on insistence, got connected to one of the supervisors name Benedicta. Our conversation was cut short by network but we completed discussions when she called back with this line +[protected]. Painfully, since that day I have not been able to access data services. Only calls and sms services work on my line till date. After 16th January, when my I received network 'deactivated' message, I have severally renewed bis and data services for one day (cautious about subscribing for more than one day at a time because i want to see if the services are up and running!) and never succeeded in accessing data services via my line on any device (blackberry, android phone, modem).
I have severally called customer care here in Nigeria and the problem still persisted till today. I was first told by an agent today that i could not browse because my line has no active data even though my line showed 80MB when I checked. I was surprised to learn today from the last customer care agent that I could not browse because my line has been barred from data services!
Why was I barred from data services because I complained? Why does the network collect my money for subscription from my line when she had barred the line from access to data services?
I need answers, please, and need them fast!
