My internet connection is not working since 20 days and I have been calling to the customer service number 10 times atleast. No one is bothered. Even I got a call to renew my service and when I told them that the current connection itself is not working they told me that they would send someone but alas I never received any call. A pathetic, fake, full of liars. I have been suffering like hell. After a lot of patience, 1 engineer comes and fixes and the result other day is the same as before. The internet connection comes and goes away. I am never ever going to us their service. It has pissed me off badly.

I wanted to install a broadband Wifi connection at my house. I chose Airtel and send a request on-line. On Sept 11, I was approached by an Airtel rep who checked my location and the airtel connections on the side street next to the house and confirmed that they would be able to install the broadband connection. I was informed of the various plans and I chose one with a monthly rental of RS 1099 with 4mbps speed. I was asked to provide address proof and a check for 1000 for installation. I was assured that the installation would be done in one day. The name of the agent was Kuldeep. Nothing happened the next day. On 13th I was informed via sms that my request had been processed and installation would be completed in 3 days. ie by 17th. That was the last i heard from Airtel. I made repeated complaints on their customer care number, I was promised that there had been some confusion about the address but someone would call within 2 hours. There was no call. Suspecting something was wrong I called Mr. Kuldeep again. After keeping me waiting for 2 days he finally called to say the installation is not possible because there is no port available. There has been no formal intimation from Airtel so far and my check has not been returned. I find this service unacceptable. If they were unable to do the installation they should not have accepted the check and debited it. And when they knew they could not install, they should have informed me on their own so I could make other arrangements. This is the second time this has happened with Airtel at this house. Is this some kind of scam?

Greetings, Name: Naveen Kumar Purra Mobile No: [protected] [protected][protected] I have raised a request in the month of Jun-15 to change my bill plan from @399 to @199 plan. But it did not happen after multiple reminders. I kept getting bills with the 399 plan instead of a revised bill. I have make several calls and emails but my grievance is not sorted yet till date. I had even approached the Nodal officer, for which they were waiving some partial amount from the bill and asking me to pay. They have now stopped my outgoing call services on my mobile. I am using the same no. for 10 years. I am looking for a revised bill effective from Jul-15 @199 bill plan instead of the current bill which is generated @399. As per my calculation the bill should be generated with 199 plan effect from Jun-19 which will come to 600/- + taxes. if this is done i am read to pay my bill immediately. Regards Naveen Kumar [protected] / [protected]

I would like to bring to your notice that I have been getting promotional calls & SMSes of various schemes of rate cutters/data packs on my number "[protected]" ever since I ported out from Airtel and ported into Aircel on July 16, 015. I was registered for the fully blocked category of NCPR/DND before Port-Out & have now already re-registered after Porting-In to Aircel. The SMSes keep coming from a particular "AO65000X series" Channels at 10:30 A.M everyday. I have intimated them on multiple occasions & requested them to stop this activity with immediate effect and delist/unsubscribe my number from such channels. They asked me to provide screenshots which too, I provided. But they refused to acknowledge & kept on dodging my requests giving vague reasons like "contact your current operator to get a resolution" & later stopped responding over email completely I continue to receive their SMSes till date though the frequency seems to have reduced from 4 to 1-2 per day. Request to please look into this & do the needful.

Regards

Hi Team, I am using your Airtel Postpaid number, comes under corporate plan CUG99. After many times calling to your customer care, your executives are not able to resolve my problem. Here is the story I want to explain you. 1. On 10th march, 2015 I have subscribed advance rental plan which is of 4250 Rs.[4GB-3G data] Same amount has been paid on time. As its validity 6 month, it needs to activate till 10th Sept. 2. On 12th july, 2015 I called to your customer care for internet issue. As per conversation happened between me and your executive, I came to know my monthly 4GB data already got consumed. Hence I asked him to activate smart byte of Rs.250 on my number. 3. Instead activating smart byte, he activated some 1gb 4g/3g plan. I don't remember the plan name. 4. My billing cycle is 20th to 19th of every month. Since 12th july to 19th july, I was facing mobile internet issue. I was not able to use internet on my no. 5. Around 21st or 22nd july one of your executive Mr. Jainul Ansari, taken action on my problem. 6. He explained me what was the issue. As per his and my conversation, here are the words.Mr. Ansari told me, on 12 july my plan was deactivated by airtel executive and some 4G related plan got activated my number. This causes problem on my number. 7. On the same call he again activated my previous advance rental plan which of 4250 Rs.[4GB-3G data] and promised me to provide waiver of pre deactivation of advance rental plan(from 12th july to 10th Sept)+ 1gb 4g/3g free plan+ tax amount 8. Around more than 2100Rs. Amount needs to be waiver. 9. I have already called to your airtel customer service centre and they told me that I need to wait for 7 days. 10. By writing this mail, I would be looking for immediate response on my complaint.

Hi All, This is one of those incident that has been prevailing till date, I have an airtel broadband connection at home([protected]) and my father received a call from an airtel representative suggesting that they would provide a cordless phone and some scheme of postpaid if he ports his existing reliance prepaid mobile number([protected]) to the airtel postpaid mobile number. My father submitted the required documents to the airtel person who came to our home and he told that the number would be activated and he’d also be getting the cordless phone within 7 working days, by that he meant 15th September 2015 as he had completed all the required formalities on 7th September 2015. On the eighth day when my father called the airtel person who came to pick up the documents, he insisted my father to call another person who eventually didn’t receive his call and on receiving my father’s call they told him that they are out of the cordless models and the number also has not been ported till now due to some issues which he wasn’t aware of, WOW! My father kept calm and didn’t take any action as there would have been some delay due to some obvious reasons and human err. For the coming week he was told the same story every day and his number wasn’t ported, the person whose came to pick up the documents didn’t receive his call and the person who was supposed to process the docs didn’t pick the call as well. As we all are living in the digital era its very tough to get your daily business done without the mobile as we all receive all our banking and business notifications through that. My father cannot perform any banking transactions as he cannot receive any OTP’s. Whenever he tried calling them they didn’t pick up the call and Fortunately if they did they kept telling me that “Sir app usse call, kar lijiye” and the other guy also blabbered the same deal. After a couple of days whenever he tried calling them they never picked up his call and they used to message him with this very statement “Sir xyz number parr call kijiye” All he wanted now was his mobile number to work, coz he had lost hopes of a cordless phone, mobile number also hasn’t started working till now, today is 23rd September 2015 and they are still beating about the bush, when I called one of the person today, he told me to come to the office which is 15 kms away from home. If they can’t resolve a small issue of providing a sim to a customer, I wonder how they the so calling fastest 4G network providing company works and provides the fastest network, really something which they should work upon. I thought airtel is a very good company in terms of providing the customer its services and alas I was wrong, unfortunately they aren’t.

A sales person from Airtel Mr. Dhyaneswar told me that Airtel has launched new plans and that I can upgrade my connection to 16mbps with 1 mBPS after fup . He had told me my landline number would remain the same. On the day of connection, Mr. Nitin told me they have to put another line as it is a new connection(A/c no: [protected]), and it is 2mbps(which is of no use for me) and not 16mbs but then they will upgrade it to 16mbps. So i waited for a day and got no mail from the airtel team, so i called them and registered a complaint (complaint no:[protected], and got a call from Jackson who clearly said that my existing landline number (a/c: [protected]) cant be transferred and furthermore the new a/c number [protected], my speed is not 16mbps with 1mbps after fup but 8mbps with 512kbps after fup.but the resolution we reached was at the fact that he would talk to his team and get the existing connection(a/c no: [protected]) to upgraded speed of 8mbps with 1 mbps after fup, and said that he would give a call he next day to confirm it. WHICH HAS NOT HAPPENED TILL NOW??????? My a/c no: [protected] (, combo connection of broadband and landline ), I had raised a complaint( complaint no:[protected], in which I had specifically stated not to disconnect my landline to the person, BUT THAT WHAT HES DONE AND NOW MY OFFICE NUMBER IS NOT WORKING AND HAVE BEEN CALLING AIRTEL CUSTOMER CARE AND SPEAKING WITH A NUMBER OF OPERATORS WHO KEEP ON TELLING ME THEY HAVE TAKEN MY MOBILE NUMBER([protected]) AND GIVE A CALL BACK WHICH HAS NEVER HAPPENED AND I AM COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THE SERVICE AND LAID BACK ATTITUDE OF YOUR COMPANY, ( SOME OF THEM BEING jACKSON, YAMINI INTERACTION ID:[protected], ESCALATION MANAGER: MADHU.R AND rITHVIRAJ WHO KEPT MY CALL ON INDEFINITE HOLD SAYING HAT THIS IS A BILLABLE NUMBER AND YOU WILL LOSE MONEY .BUNCH PEOPLE WHOSE NAME I DONT REMEMBER...). tHE WORST PART THEY NEVER SEND YOU MAIL WITH THE DETAILS OF THE DISCUSSION BECAUSE OF WHICH THEY KEEP ON BLAMING THE CUSTOMER

Hello, My name is Shashank Pandey. My number is +91 [protected]. I have an other number of airtel [protected] which is lost. But airtel is not providing me the duplicate sim card of the same number. Kindly help me My alternate is +91 [protected]

I'm an loyal customer to bharati airtel since 2004, for the last 3 months I'm facing severe network drop complaint. Not only me but most of the people are facing the same problem. When this complaint araised they increased tariff from 198₹ to 255₹ without rectifying the complaint. This seems very pathetic nd cheating all. Kindly take action

I was a happy vodafone customer for 15-20 years and only because of high bills did I decide to shift over to airtel only to realise that it was my biggest mistake...I submitted all the correct documents etc to the agent who came over and handed me a sim too. After my porting request got approved, I was given the date and time as[protected] T22:30... Since that minute I have not received any connection on my phone and have been without any means of communication for the past 6 days now, and whenever I call Airtel customer service (which has been over 20-30 times) all I am told in their rehearsed dialogue is "don't worry ma'am, we understand. You will get connection in 24 hours, I guarantee!" This is total n complete lies. I have tried calling the agent too who took my documents and he refuses to take my calls...I have even visited 2 airtel galleries over the past 2 days with the same statement told to me... I have 2 small kids with whom I go all over the place and a husband who is out of the country who cannot get In touch with me or speak to his kids because of AIRTEL's technical glitches ... I have had to bear the cost of getting a new prepaid sim and refilling it so that temporarily I have some means of communication. The number that is under dispute is [protected]... The alternate number that I canbe contacted on is [protected]. I have registered many complaints via call center and galleries, out of which I have 2 complaint nos., 65014527 and 65078808 The agent who handled my documentation came from Pratik Enterprises, Jamnadas Anokia Marg, La Citadel, Anand Bhavan, 2nd floor, Kandivali west. And the contact no for this office is [protected] Thank you.

I have complain many more times but still no response from there side.. im missing very very important calls. this make me mental stress and depression. will the company bear my loss due to there network problem???? eventhough it seems to be a big telecommunication company, their customer response is very very very worst.

I have submitted my documents for converting my postpaid to prepaid which was taken in my brothers name since i was new to Bangalore I have submitted the documents and they said me it will take 48 hrs to get it done. But still after that my postpaid was not activated. I went back to them another guy was approaching me then he told me it will take a week to do it. Then again after 7 days it was not activated and i went back to them they said me that their portal was not working fine and asked me to come the next day. The next day when i went the one guy asked me to come tomorrow since they have more work. I told him that it was more than 2 weeks and then he told me that he will check . I waited for nearly 3 to 4 hours and i got disappointed and moved out. Then again i followed up with them for nearly 4 to 5 days. At last they told me that they have missed the documents and need the same document again I was completely tensed. They could have told me this at the earliest. This happened for me in ITPL Bangalore airtel office. This is the worst service i have never seen in any network
