This is with respect to my number: [protected] [Bill Plan rental :- Rs. 175/-(Pro rate) GPRS : Rs.100/- (Prorate)]. For the month of Aug, my 100 rs net plan was about to get over, so for the same i contacted airtel so that i can get another net pack. The customer executive guided me to upgrade to Rs. 250 plan in which i will get 1 GB 3G data. Moreover, he also told me that I will be charged only Rs. 250 for internet usage for the month of Aug in total as i have taken an upgraded version. but, i was shocked to see my bill for the month of August 2015. The company has charged me the following inspite of informing me that i will be charged just Rs. 250 for the internet for the august month: 300 Mb 3G Plan : Rs.100/- (Prorate) 1GB 3G Plan : Rs.300/-(Flat) Other internet charges: Rs.54.71(inspite of havng two internet plans) for the same issue, i had a word with airtel on 27th aug, and they had raised the complaint on behalf of me and also promised me a resolve on or before 29th aug. But, none of the executive called me till 29th, therefore i called them up, and asked for the matter. so they gave a very unprofessional reply that the team might have forgot to resolve the issue and hence they raised my complaint again and yet again they asked me to wait for 24 hrs. In the mean time i wrote a mail at: [protected]@in.airtel.com asking to resolve the matter, but no proper resolution was made. They said that they cant make any changes in the bill and that the bill is final from their side. Also, in the same mail, i also mentioned about them about getting upgraded to Rs. 175 internet plan for Sep month in which i will get 500 Mb monthly as per my discussion with the their customer exec. He told me that I will be charged Rs. 175 in total and will be given 500 Mb 3G per month. But yet again, i was fooled by them as now they are saying that they will charge Rs 175 over my basic net plan of RS 100. I have attached the screenshot of the response that i got from airtel on my mail. I must say that airtel, has really degraded itself in terms of customer servicing. i have tried to contact the customer executives again and again but none had the ans to my simple ques: Why are you charging me for your faults? Its the fault of airtel executives that they didnt informe me properly or informed wrongly about the amount they will be charging. And now, none of them is ready to reimburse me the same. I want airtel to charge only Rs. 250 as internet charges for month of Aug and RS. 175 for the month of Sep. Because thats what i was informed. Also, a fresh bill should be generated for the month of Aug.

Hi,

I was impressed about the offers and the 4G services given by Airtel, opted for portability from Vodafone, the porting requested was accepted and my old number was disconnected on 3rd Sept 2015, I inserted the Airtel 4g sim card given to me but it did not get activated. I called up customer care and they told that this sim card is not registered in my name, then i got the sim card changed on 4th Sept 2015 and completed the tele-verification around 10.30 am. After this they said that the number will be activated within "30 minutes". But after repeatedly calling to your customer care, I did not get satisfactory reply from anyone. They were vaguely replying saying "some technical issue" which will be resolved within "4 hours", I have called some 20-30 times to your customer care but in vain. Even today i had called customer care and complaints centre, I have been getting the same response saying this will be resolved by end of today. I am really surprised by this, as I have moved from other network expecting got better service from Airtel. But I am really disappointed the way things have been going through, as its been 4 days, it has not been activated till now. I being a Chartered Accountant will be receiving many calls from my clients which I have not been able to receive nor call anyone in these days.

I am frustrated and suffered a lot because of this and I hope this issue will be resolved at the earliest.

Hope the biggest network provider will not make the new customer unhappy and suffer more.

My Customer Id:[protected].My DTH account got suspended on Sep 3.I called to customer care and lodge a compliant. I didn't got any proper response from them. Then I called to Nodal Office and got information that I make a request for reversal in 21st April 2015 so they refunded 245.That's the reason the balance got deducted and account got suspended. But I didn't make such request in April 2015 and also no amount got credited in my account. I mailed to DTH Nodal no response. Please resolve this at earliest.

I have applied for Airtel broadband for a month back.They collected the document and money within few hours.After that no one contacted me for the installation.I have called them back several times they told the same thing every time that they are raising a complain and the installation will happen in 3 days.but nothing like that happened ever.After two weeks they informed that installation cannot take place in my area.So i have raised request for refund my money.Till then its two weeks they have not refunded my money which they were supposed to refund in two working days. Another point is they had my address details when i have raised the request but knowing that they cannot install in my area, they still took my money.this is simply a fraud case. i have attached the payment details proof. The person who collected my money his phone number is [protected]. He never picked up my call after collecting the money.

I am having an airtel landline connection[protected] in coimbatore and raised service request no. 59028424 on 28 Aug. Airtel didn't shift my connection as mentioned by the customer care within 5 working days. I again raised complaint (no.[protected] by calling airtel customer care on 4th Sep 2015 against non-completion of service request. They asked for two days to resolve the complaint but simply they extended target date for closing the complaint from 6 Sep to 8 Sep 2015. I have sent mail to Nodal office South and also to Appellete authority for Tamilnadu region. But got irresponsible response as my complaint will be resolved as early as possible without any target date. The airtel junction box is in front of my new house and the technical team has mentioned an himalayan range LIE that they have get permission from local authority as they need to cross the road. i have lost so much money as my prime business is done through this airtel broadband connection.

i don't know what kind of a signal and network you people are maintaining, this is my second facing the problem, your signal not available, previously i used to go with docomo, later i thought airtel is the best signal and I changed to airtel. Please return back my balance suck people waste airtel

Hi Team, I have been unable to use Airtel 3G even after having enough balance in my account as well as activating the Data Pack. I have described the problem and visited several Galleries, but no solution has been found. Also, when called the Airtel customer care they tell me the same steps to perform that the Airtel Gallery person did. I have asked for manager interaction at a Airtel Gallery but wasn't able to get hold, stating that there is nothing airtel can do. This issue is persistent since a couple of months now. Please assist me in this.

Hi,

I had been one of the loyal postpaid customer since Oct, 2013. Last few months, there have been unwanted(illegal) charges by your system and you have been demanding more money from me.


I have attached bills[protected]May-2015 to 10-Jun-2015) &[protected]june-2015 to 10-July-2015). Password to open pdf is “nju2”


The first Bill[protected]Original Bill Amt:1112.42) runs to 726 pages due to airtel billing system error(illegitimate charges). I had to make more than 7 calls to customer care & spent nearly 3 hrs of my valuable time to get issue sorted out and they revised the bill amount(Corrected Bill Amt:523.77). Many a times your systems don’t respond/ running slow as told by customer care executives

The second bill[protected]Original Bill Amt:1016.95) was also wrong billing for 4G data usage while my mobile(Moto G2) doesn’t have 4g support. Your system activated 4g data without my consent?!. Then again I had to make multiple calls to customer care & spent nearly 1 hr of my valuable time to get the issue sorted out and they revised the bill amount(Corrected Bill Amt:446.95)


Considering the above bitter experiences, I have decided to get the mobile#([protected]) converted into prepaid account on 18/07/2015 to get rid of your nuisance billing system and poor customer service. The above # has been migrated to prepaid after clearing the unbilled dues by cash payment (remitted by Mohammed Rafiq-Airtel-Mobile# who visits Dell Whitefield, Bangalore Office daily).

At present, there are calls and sms(from DZ-AIRPMT) from your recovery team demanding me to pay Rs.449 for usage 11-july-2015 to 17-july-2015(just for 7 days demanding 1 month rent, etc). This is a clear case of mismanagement and harassing the poor customers. In similar case, my other number [protected](Relationship#[protected] ) has been billed an outstanding amount of Rs.49.


Another issue I fail to understand is that while 1GB of prepaid data is available between Rs.127(Tata docomo) & 154(Airtel), why you need to bill the same as Rs.3282 and clear off the value as discount??!

I had been forced to pay Rs.750 for 200mb additional usage(over and beyond 1GB data) in one of my earlier bills.


This is ridiculous and totally unacceptable malpractice by a reputed organization such as Bharti Airtel.


Hence I request you to kindly look into my case in detail and waive off any wrong due amount in your system at the earliest. Please confirm the action taken in reply e-mail.


Otherwise, I need to refer this case to our Human Resource Team for the larger interest of Employees & Later, I am seriously thinking of litigation against Airtel in suitable consumer forum/ court.


Awaiting your earliest reply,


Muthuselvan Tharmaraja,

I hereby wants to bring in your notice that I use airtel mobile services with mobile number [protected]. Recently I received a sms by my service provider regarding recharge of rs 295 which will result in benefits of 2GB 3G data for 28 days so today I recharge with rs295 but benefits as stated was not provided instead only 1GB 3G data is provided . I felt disappointed so I called customer support but they were not much helpful and said that the offer is valid only for the day on which sms is received. But such condition was not mentioned in that sms that's why I recharged with rs 295 but by trusting that sms now I feel deceived . I request you to provide me the benefits which was promised.

Dear Sir, I recharged Rs 100/- I. E. Data recharge 2 g but I did not full benefits. I talked your customer care representative. He talked badly. He did not even raised complain. He disconnected my call. He was Gobind as he informed me. He also locked my no now I m not able to contact again. I need your help regarding this. My mob no is [protected]. I just talked them. Please do your earnest. Your faithfull I. Alam
