It starts with a phone call to the customer care executive of air-tel around 6 pm on 2.12.2015. I then asked about a exclusive 4g plan for 1gb, excecutive then replied that by recharging 251 i would get 1gb 4g data. after this I have told there is already a plan of 265 where i would get 3g/4g 2gb data. I then said i want only 4g plan. finally he said that i have to recharge 251 for 1gb 4g data. Immediately I have recharged 251 around 8.30 pm but unfortunately I have got 1gb 3g data instead of 4g data. after that i have again called customer care & then my call got transferred to senior executive he didn't give me a satisfactory answer. along with this he assured that i have already got double data. practically I haven't got that. after that conversation many times i called but no response came through. who will take the responsibility of this loss of mine, where i have not get proper 4g data and also get half data compare to conventional plan .

My mobile no, . [protected] was ported from vodafone network to airtel on 1.12.2015 night around 11.15 p.m. the verification call was done and after following all the instructions the network of airtel went missing. I complaint to their express shop in laxmi nagar, delhi branch which said it it be sorted and will give me a call on my alternate number. even after 19 hrs. of porting the number to airtel the connection could not be started . I would request to look into the matter and do the needful at the earliest,

In my location BHUSANDA Po- NAUWRANGA Ps- MUFASIL Dist- GAYA (BIHAR) Network is not working from 20/11/2015 till now . In mobile network show full but internet is working very slow in 2g as well as in 3G. Even in 3G network web page browsing is not working. So I have requested to you solve this networking problem.

Dear Sir/Madam, I had taken airtel internet plan (2GB/month at 3 G speed and thereafter unlimited at 2 G speed) for 6 months and made one time payment. Airtel had sent me a bill and asking for payment. When i had discussed at customer care, they informed me that you had click on some websites which was chargeable., but no message was given to me for any additional charges. Even i does not know which website i had clicked. I had raised a complaint, but they are taking any suitable action. Kindly help me. Regards Rakesh Mittal [protected]

I am in outstation & i am continuously recharging phone with talk time. But after every recharge within few hours balance is reducing to zero. My prepaid mobile no is [protected]. The reason given by customer care is switching on data connection without data balance. I have recharged my phone with Rs 164/ & amt recovered for switching on data network is only 49/-. Hence i request to refund Rs 115/- to my account.Due to this problem i am not able to remain in touch with my family.

I have been using 4g service from quite long time in Gurgaon, but, unfortunately despite recharging for 4g data I am not getting the speed, even in most of the cases its become difficult to open a simple google site. The speed I am getting as low as 0.01k/s while using internet and abruptly site abandoned, though, occasionally its work fine but its only out of 100 attempts. It was also quite surprised while I have short visit to Dehradun (Near Kalka Mandir), where, even I am not able to use the internet service whereas from second sim from another operator was working fine.

I have requested for an MNP from Vodafone to airtel as to get better connectivity, but instead of getting any services from them, they cant activate my number, and on repetitive follow up, each n every time, i heard the same thing, that please wait for 6 hr, when its already 48 hrs past, still my number is not yet been activated . on escalating this issue to higher authority, their response is further disappointing as they told me that my tele verification has not yet been completed on which, i called 59059 again & again, but from there i got confirmation that my number has been verified on 30th nov 2015 .On my request to provide any message or mail for confirming that my tele verification is completed, they refused to give any written proof . they are just not activating my number. I don't understand this kind o[censored]nprofessional behavior from a company like airtel . i hope your voice can make a difference on their deaf ears.

I am using airtel sim. Mobile No. is [protected] for last 5 year. airtel cut my balance so many times by the name of data uses.

Pls find my ultimate pain for being your sic n new customer, just 30 days old for your kind understanding. Bought the above said prepaid connection [protected] nearly 30-days back & on 28-Nov-15, my mother carried it with her to mumbai & currently, its under roaming. As per your advertised roaming tariff of Rs.31, am supposed to enjoy incoming calls for free of cost while on roaming for 10-days. To my surprise, unable to recharge with 31 denomination (tried online n through retailer), getting error as "unable to process your request". For the same, visited your Airtel store located at Malkajgiri (opp to Shah electronics) 2 hrs back & met your uncivilized team & got zero help on my concern. In your store, met with your honorable executive called Mr.Karthik & shocked with his idiotic/care free response saying "kuch problm hoga, agar aap complaint leneko bolenge, tho hum lenge, aapki marji". What is this 'app ki marji', are we looking like beggars to you folks On my insistence, some other gentleman came on board & took my prepaid no along with alternate contact no & said in half hr, i will get the message about the complaint. For your notice my lord, till now i didnt received any such message. Why you fake customers, are we looking like fools to you people Dont call on [protected], as it is with my mother in roaming, call on my alt cont no [protected]. Get on to my issue & resolve on top priority & live up to your brands image R's Deva. M [protected] [protected]

I have been cheated by your store guys regarding my portability request. I had continuously told the guys that I need a nano sim card since I am using iPhone 6.

I was told that don’t worry we will give you nano sim card but actually they handed me over a sealed package saying that it contains nano sim.

When I checked with the sim and had to cut it so that it fits in my iPhone. But after cutting the sim, it was not getting detected in my phone so I told guys that please help me out and give me a nano sim.

Now I have two sim cards and both of them are not working. Please help me with this as I am losing crucial business and personal calls.

Since more than two months I am being harassed by Airtel to pay my mobile bill of Rs13000. I had written an email to them about unacceptable bill amount and that I have been wrongly charged. Apart from this they have charged me a monthly rental for international roaming for more than 5 months. After several phone calls and mental harassment and loss of time and effort, they called me back to confirm that the internet charges were wrongly put and rs10, 000 had been waived off. Till date all my conversation has been on mail and I requested them (Rohan, customer service executive who called me) to send me an email confirmation. I got a call from[protected]. The executive named Rohan got into an argumentative mode and misbehaved. He threatened me that he would not be sending me any mails and hung up the phone. It's sheer misconduct from the company's end and I request strict actions to be taken against this executive for misbehaving and not answering properly. If no action is taken against him, I would make sure to file a complaint against Airtel for improper customer service. I have been dealing with this for more than two months and at the end I get this kind of response and misconduct from Airtel. This is completely unacceptable and disappointing. Please inform me about what steps or actions have been taken against this person.

For porting my vodafone number [protected] from postpaid to prepaid, I have submitted of my proof on (29/082015 vl126183 second proof received 18/10/2015 vl137612 ) due to some reason my proof got rejected So i had submitted the proof again it passes about 3 months and there were no action on my request . so i have enquired the customer care office at airtel kazhakuttam Then they are some reasons and informed again my proof got rejected .So am requesting you to either take action on my request other wise return back my id proof which i had submitted . If any of these are not done, i may be forced to complaint against your authority in the consumer court excepting your favorable action. Your reply doesn''t look like responsible.For this porting I have suffered the below mentioned loss. My 6 days salary of 700 rupees.2 photo and id proof cost rupees 100 and I have paid last 3 month bill of 1800 rupees.You have to pay this money.Otherwise I will move legally.I am remebering you that all these happened only because of your irresponsibility. no one from your side has contacted us even after sending these mails i want the refund for the payment i have done for porting my connection, already a petition has been Filed against this matter the service from your side is completely inefficient, you guys don''t even clearly check what the complaint i have told, the replies you gave are not even close to what i asked, The current service provider told there is no need for contacting them for porting to airtel I need no more services from your side, i only require my refund and copy of the proof i send to you, i definitely need my proof and cash or else the expense that costed me for taking these copes.

I am really disappointed with the way request for transfers are handled by Airtel Team. As a consumer, the only expectation we have is to get good and prompt service from the service provider. The first commitment to resolve the issue was made for 28th November'15. Later on, it went to 29th, then 30th and yesterday I have got a mail saying that you will take another 48 hours. Today morning I got a call from the customer care informing that the request is cancelled at their end without informing me as they had some permission issue in my Area. Even though it is not my responsibility to check and it is entirely Airtel's work, I have checked about the issue in my society. I have checked in my society with the Airtel sales representative and he has confirmed that if I take new connection, he can make the connection active within a day. If this is how the Company like Airtel works wherein it is only about adding new customers and not paying attention to the requests of existing customers, I think I have made a big mistake by opting for Airtel connection in the first place and continuing with it for almost an year. If you cannot provide exact deadline and keep your commitment, I would like to get my deposit back and surrender the connection. I hope you people understand how handicap a person gets without internet connectively and how much loss can it cause to working professionals. Also, I will have to unnecessarily pay monthly rental for the period when the connection was not even transferred.

I booked a new broadband connection with airtel and paid ₹1000 as deposit using my credit card (Transaction ref no:[protected], dt 19/sep/15, 7:54AM). The engineers came to my flat the same day and found that the broadband connection can not be processed as there are no cables in my neighbourhood. Therefore, they said the amount will be refunded. However, it has been two months since I paid the amount and they are refusing to refund the amount. Therefore, I do not know how to proceed. Can you suggest what to do?

From browsing I came to know that Airtel is most fraud internet and telecom service provider, If Airtel is harassing customers. Why Indian government is not taking action against Airtel ISP's. Airtel one of the fraud telecom service provider in India. Please take necessary actions against. I will raise online petition for taking necessary actions againts Airtel
