My airtel sim was working fine this morning but after some time it stopped working and when I call it's saying that the number is invalid. I have been using my number for more than 5 years now an it's connected to my all important accounts.
Today out of the blue it stopped without any prior notification.

      Hi,

      We are using total 6 connections and when I started to pay the payment I saw each time your payment was showing different amounts online.
      I paid yesterday 3 payments, please find here the snapshots and still your customer care team member saying that we just paid half amount not full. When I did full then where half payment gone?

      I keep sending email to Airtel and also calling but no response and no one helping to fix just keep sending reminders to pay quickly if not more late fee.

      We are here to do the work not fight every day for payment and when few days we are late to do the payment then you just add your late fee but never see about the issues we get with connections and payment what you guys are doing it on daily basis.

      I have added the connections snapshot too for you to check and also here messages I got when I paid.

      Hi, Bill payment of Rs. 398.87 has been initiated towards your airtel mobile[protected]_dsl. Txn ID:[protected]. Payment will get posted to your Airtel ac within 4-hours subject to successfully completing this Txn. Please keep this Txn Id for future reference. Please update your app for better experience.

      Here we have paid 398.87 and your team saying we have just paid 138.45 only.

      Hi, Bill payment of Rs. 212.4 has been initiated towards your airtel mobile[protected]_dsl. Txn ID:[protected]. Payment will get posted to your Airtel ac within 4-hours subject to successfully completing this Txn. Please keep this Txn Id for future reference. Please update your app for better experience.

      This one they are saying its correct

      Hi, Bill payment of Rs. 303.91 has been initiated towards your airtel mobile[protected]_dsl. Txn ID:[protected]. Payment will get posted to your Airtel ac within 4-hours subject to successfully completing this Txn. Please keep this Txn Id for future reference. Please update your app for better experience.

      This one they are saying we have just paid 272.

      How possible when you sent message for full amount and we paid full amount from my account too and Airtel keep saying they just received only some amount?

      Thank you.

      HI,

      i did not get a single email or call or any answer. I keep emailing and calling but still not a single person responding. Please check snapshot of today showing they received 138.45 INR and when I paid 398.87 attached snapshot of all.

                  Respected Sir.

                  For the past 1 week I'm getting calls from anonymous numbers to my personal airtel (chennai) mobile number constantly. Now, the stage is that it is very problematic for my family members (father, mother and sister). If I call them back I get a recorded call stating that the number is invalid or not available . Within 5 days I got around 50 calls in 35 different numbers. So, it is my humble request to give the full details of the mobile number. The mobile number is [protected]. Even the call is coming at mid-night also.

                  Please treat, this is as my final step to stop the unwanted calls.
                  Treat this matter on urgent basis as the question is of my family safety.

                      बहुत बड़ी फर्जी कंपनी है एअरटेल और बड़ा घोटाला है उपभोक्ताओं के उत्पीड़न मे। हम लोगों ने तीन महीने पहले कनेक्शन लगवाया आज तक अपने वादे के अनुसार लैण्डलाईन कनेक्शन नही दिये। कनेक्टिविटी स्पीड बेकार है। अगले बिल पीरियड के लिए प्लान चेंज करना चाहते है पर कोई आप्शन ही नही।
                      121 पर शिकायत करने पर अब उन्होंने मेरा नंबर ही ब्लाक कर दिया है।
                      मै तो अपने लोकल सर्विस प्रोवाइडर से कनेक्शन हटाने को कह चुका हूँ पर वह बेचारा कंपनी के फर्जीगीरी से स्वयं असहाय है। मेरी आईडी [protected] बनारस मे है। @[protected]
                      भूल के भी एअरटेल एस्ट्रीम या कोई भी सर्विस मत ले नही तो परेशान रहेगें।

                            I need ebill for the bill cycle for september which I am unable to see in my airtel app and through the website as well. I contacted customer care on 3rd october 2021 at 10:00 am they are unable to help stating they can't send ebill since its prepaid account . I am not getting ebill on my account which I used to get earlier, However I am able to ebill for other customers which are coming on my email id . Pls help me to get my ebill for the month of September . Its becoming a headache now to contact airtel again and over and over regarding this . This happening for sometime looks like tax forge happening from airtel side . Its consumer right to monthly invoice for the payment paid . We dont need payment receipt this is different than invoice . My airtel app shows " no data" tried login/logout and website user not authorised . whats happening not idea .

                              I have 2 Airtel Sims and both are activated for International Roaming. Now when I m in UAE even though there is enough balance I am unable to make or receive the call. Customer care is not ready to take any accountability. They are saying we need to recharge IR pack then only it will work and your IR is not activated. Though I am getting Sms regularly. Sad to know that our network provider are so poor in knowledge that they can't even provide the proper solution and leaving no option behind us than to quit both the numbers.

                              I have checked everything but nothing works.

                                As part of the OFC cabling work, airtel has constructed a pole in front of the building entrance . The place is the location for loading and unloading of materials during people movement in and out and also the location of the new maingate. No permission was taken for this.

                                    My father G Jagan Mohan Redddy has been using the phone number [protected] ever since first Nokia phones were released in India, recently since 25th September 2021 the sim card stopped working, when i went to the airtel office i was surprised to know that my father’s phone number was showing some stranger details, i surely remember submitting my father’s documents when we first took the sim and also during the updates of 3g and 4g sims.

                                    I submitted all the proofs like 1) gas bill (connection we got it in 2004) 2) adhar card 3) Bank statements. To state that my father is the rightful user of the phone number mentioned earlier but there is no response from the airtel office Begumpet, Hyderabad.

                                    That phone number is very important to us, so kindly let me know if there is any way of getting it back. Thank you.
