Airtel Complaints & Reviews

The said ip tv is not working since the past more than five months.However, the engineers are unable to fix the problem.We have also requested to remove the ip tv connection and provide digital tv connection.It is surprising that there is no response absolutely.The organisation is so huge that it has no time to listen to consumers.Huge amounts of money are collected by way service fees and also service tax and it is shamefulthat there is no response.Can we speak to some responsible person in airtl.

I have 4G compatible mobile, I have upgraded my sim card from 3G to 4G . but its not able to get 4G signal. even on the same location I am able to use my phone to with another 4G SIM. I log a service request & request to Airtel to resolved it, but they closed my service request without my satisfaction. I called them agin but again they are saying the same thing that your service request raised again you will get resolution in next 2 days. how cheap customer service .

Dear sir my name is nagarjuna from chennai, on[protected] i applied an broadband new connection i have submitted all the documents and money, at that time taking money they have informed with in 3days connection will come upto now nothing happen, i just call the customer care and tell my problem they told no network feasibility in my area. [protected]@gmail.Com

Hi All,

I have the record of each and everything, Firstly I use to recharge monthly, When I was trying to recharge once I got an option for 6months with an amount of 2460 for 19channels, but when i check my package now they only show me 18 channels, I spoke to the call center and they say its only 18 channels now, than why did your airtel website say its 19HD channels, And also they fool us I dont know whether this complain will reach in right hands, And a necessary action could be take,

You ll can reach me on [protected], I stay in maharashtra, These people are getting richer day by day by fooling the common who struggles to earn his daily wages,

Coming Back to complain, I use to have *movies, movies plus HD, and Zstudio now instead of that they show me, stat sports all channels which I dont watch,

I am going to attach a screen shot under, along with my Customer ID number and also please check, the package with the amount mentioned, The worst experience is your call center people, don't have manner's to speak, Your supervisor's hung up on me, What a customer service this is, People say In india these complains are not entertained, but I think we all should set an example by penalizing these companies, so that no other companies should do again this to anyone, And each and every customer should be treated the same way,

I am using airtel service for my phone [protected] at Mumbai. I received a call this morning i.e. 6th Nov. at 12 noon or so from Airtel executive. I had to discontinue the call as I was in a serious meeting. I received the second call which I responded by saying i cant take your call and disconnected. she called me third time and started shouting saying why did I disconnect. I could not continue as I was in the meeting and disconnected the call. After I was through with the meeting I noticed that my outgoing was barred. This is what has happened with Airtel executives now. I called customer care number and spoke to one Ms. Priya who was unable to tell me any reason for barring my outgoing. I enquired from her that the rude executive who called me earlier was Ms Sankari. I had to send a request mail to [protected]@in.airtel.com for debarring the outgoing facility. It was done promptly but I had to suffer for 3 hours. Who pays for the inconvenience caused to me ?? Such executives should be sacked immediately and proof should be shared with customers if Airtel has to prosper. This is what had happened with Reliance when they were at peak !!

Dear concern,
I'm the regular customer of you which using the internet service highly (per
month i can recharge more than rs.2000 only for internet pack- please check my
passed recharge details). Yesterday around 5pm i faced a issue which happened
often in your service ie. @ browsing sometimes more data consume from the
normal level for example within 2-3 minutes of data consumption shows more
than 200mb. I know i'm using 3G network but i never received before the speed
more than 50kb per sec according this calculation I doubt how it will happen
that is within 2-3 minutes data consumption more than 200mb. So I reached
yesterday to your care (yes its not a customer care it is your care because
they convince actually the doubted people's not for care those.) they convince
me it may happen . according that I highly unsatisfied with your customer care
officers particularly name of Mr.rajesh (senior officer). he never tried to
resolve my problems oppositely he convince me every minute.(ref.nos
-CBDM[protected] & CBDM[protected]

So I highly unsatisfied about ur customer car. Now I really upset to using
airtel service (the biggest network in India). I think this is the last try
before I go to the consumer court so kindly help me as soon as possible.

About the issue, and complaint numbers as attached.

Thanking you

Dear concern
Regularly I'm facing the issue and I'm complaining so. but there is no change
is happen (THE DATA CONSUMING EXTRA). Yesterday I clearly understood what is
going on in ur network. Before using download I screen short the details of
available data it is 865.28 and after downloading 292.57 mb the detail shows
the available data is 565.68. I'm the degree holder of maths I think 865.28 -
292.57 = 572.71mb. But after the data CONSUMING the detail shows 565.28 which
means 7 mb extra deducted (i don't know which mathematical geniuses doing
this)This is not a big issue but it is one of the basic of the big issue.
Actually I use and cut the internet oftenly a day it more then 10 times so one
time 7mb means per day 70 mb. I'm using 4G network or 4gery network?

The details as attached pls verify and revert back.

Airtel Customer Service is practically the worst. Called So many times bt no SOLUTION.
1) Called FOUR times for same problem but NO Solution
2) Thy chrg for calling cust service no. bt dnt SOLVE PROBLEM & put call on LONG HOLD
3) Dont evn bother asking previous complaint No etc. (CONRC[protected])
4) Did not ask Transaction ID ([protected]) for online rechrg frm My Airtel app
5) No. of Customer care reps i spoke to with thr name 1) Mumtaj, 2) Sagar Sharma, 3) Vaibhav and last very interesting one Sr. Supervisor- Firdos Shaikh who straight away asked me to wait for 7 to 8 days more without bother to to chck previous complaint no which had been gvn to me by the Rep -Mumtaj only aftr insisting her for complaint no. Also he did not even ask the Transaction ID msg i gt frm Airtel aftr successful recharge thru My Airtel mobile App. Whn asked why didnt he asked he kept repeating his company policy is to ask customer to wait for thr money to credit in thr acc which i feel is Disgusting reply to customer who has been calling since Two days for not getting recharge balance in acc, so i asked the rep without referring to my com no. and inquiring abt Trans ID msg i rcvd post rechrg on wht basis he is straight away asking me to wait for 7 to 8 days and wht Guaranty he is providing me it will be credited to my bank ac so he kept me on hold without informing for 12 min . Pls note during ths call i asked is ths call getting recorded by airtel he said yes thn again i askd how he is sure ths is the solution without knowing my problem completely... he again said its company policy for all customer bt thn I said I was told tht technical team will call me by previous rep thn he said he is nt sure abt tht. I was kept on hold many times during this charged called without any solution and despite of calling many times. The Sr. Supervisor said he cannot do anything other thn I should wait and whn i asked the 2nd Sagar rep who also also told me my problem will be resolved very soon by technical team which never happen he said he is sorry abt wht previous rep tod me that’s all. So all thy all can do every time a cust calls thm thn give them time-frame and make customers FOOL again and again. All these people in cust service airtel did not resolve my small issue instead they made it worst by fooling me every time whn i called them on thr 121 paid customer service no VERY PATHETIC EXPERIENCE

Hi,

Please Terminate my 4G post paid dongle connection with immediate effect and let me know how much due i have to pay for the dis-connection.

Reason for disconnection:This was my company connection which i got from my previous company & as i am no longer in the company i want to terminate this connection immediately.

I had raised another request for connection termination around 45 days ago after which i got a call from the relationship manager.He was not at all ready to terminate the connection and giving me various alternative which i didn't agree.Finally i salted for converting the postpaid connection to Prepaid connection as per him.He told me to go to the nearest branch and apply for the change.I went to the Infosys campus, electronic city phase 2 outlet, Bangalore and submitted the papers and paid for new sim card.As per them they told me it will be done within two working days.

After one week when i didn't get any reply from them i went back to that outlet for update they told me this cannot be converted.This is very frustrating i went for this change to postpaid as per relationship manager confirmation only and after doing all paper work, submitting documents & getting new sim card i was told this is not possible.What kind of service is that & my bill still continues to generate.

I have all the documents and proof collected from the concerned airtel outlet & if you don't terminate the connection immediately i will be forced to lodge a complaint against this harassment in consumer court and will also not be paying a single rupee from next month as after numerous request also you are not closing the connection.

Thanks,
Rajdeep

During past two-three months I am facing issues with the mobile internet
service provided by you. My mobile data pack balance is coming to zero all of a
sudden without actually I using it. Initially I ignored it thinking some
mistake from my end.

But today it happened again. My mobile data balance before going to bed
yesterday night was more than 1.5 GB. Today morning when I started the data
service, I received the message stating 100% data usage alert. Please note that
I have 3123MB of data plan activated with billing cycle starting from 26th of
every month. My mobile internet usage is limited to only reading news paper,
Gmail browsing and nothing else. I update all my software's only while in Wi-Fi
network in office. I am unable to digest how 1.5 GB of data can be consumed
with disabled data service during night.
