Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir today i. E 29 / 08 / 2015. At 11. 30 am, i was paid rs 220 / - to recharge my mobile number [protected], throgh net banking from sbi. The transaction number is [protected] g0apiebq5 transfer to bharti airtel. But my mobile not yet recharged. Pl echarge immediately

My Airtel account number is 13939021. I was in a plan of 1099 40Gb for 4mbps speed and I use to get 250 rs discount every month since Airtel promised me my bill wont cross above 1050 rs. Airtel offered me 1099 60gb plan for 4mbps speed, I worte an email to them stating not to change my plan as I am happy with 1099 40gb 4mbps speed. Even after writing an email they changed my plan to 1099 60 gb 4mbps speed and they deactivated my 250rs discount and replaced it with just 100rs. I am using this connection from past 8 years, when I emailed them again they say its our mistake but we cant provide you more than 100 rs discount. Without my knowledge they are changing my plan and deactivating the discounts. I wrote 3 mails and got no satisfying reply. They are ready to lose a customer for the mistake they have made. I did not expect this from a brand like Airtel. They are unfair to their old customer. All I want is give back my 250rs discount. Thats it. This is a mistake from your side, not my side.

My costumer Id is [protected], my registered mob no is [protected]

My advice Dont buy a airtel 4g, i had 2gb plan for Rs.450/-, when you connect the device it will exhaust the data even in single day without download anything . this is absolutely waste. Dont trap into this definitely you get frustration that is sure.

Request for Refund, On 29th August, 2015, I had done a recharge of Rs. 81/- 3G data pack on [protected] this number. The recharge was not done but Rs. 81 has been deducted from my account. Transaction ID is : 208779. Alternative Mobile no.: [protected] Please do something on issue as soon as possible. Waiting for your reply.

Hello, I am sure Airtel is doing very BIG scam in Digital TV. They are keep activating unwanted HD channels for FREE for few days/week and deducting money directly without any alert or customer confirmation. They just randomly call once and inform about the new HD activation and if customer forget they they just keep that channel activated.. even if i don't need that channel or never used.. So my ONLY Question is WHY they are activating the channels without any formal SMS/MAIL/CALL from the customer itself.. who gave them authority to JUST activate the costly channels and enjoy the free money in their account..!!! Doesn't this sounds very ODD and a smell of a BIG SCAM...!! I am sure i am not the only sufferer here and many customers are already suffering from this hidden activation without any knowledge.. Pl talk with them and let me know how I can file RTI against Airtel TV to see what kind of scam they are running under the BIG brand..!! I am sure this is more than Million $ scam and we customers are just paying handsome money to Airtel without knowing it... If me like Techie can be fooled then what about the common man who don't have access to Internet or who don't have time to call the customer care to know their value added channels.. this is big fraud and this has to be fix ASAP to save the customer rights. This is against Customer rights and no one can just deduct money from your account without any formal confirmation from the Customer.. Pl let us file a RTI to know the SCAM.. need help from Media & Press here.. Pl help.. Thanks, Prashant Kumar [protected]

Hi, I have a voice call recording of the conversation with customer care advisor of Airtel 4g. On one hand Airtel India advertise about movie download instantly, and in reality they block websites where movies are available for download. Hence restricting customers with unlimited data plans from downloading movies. This is unfair trade practice in my opinion. And they do this by displaying html pages with error messages either saying 1. ''as you have reached your data bill limit, data service on your airtel number has been stopped''.(http://http://one.airtel.in/postpaid.html) In reality I have unlimited data plan, still I get this error page and I have complained to them more than 14 times so far in the last 4 months. 2. ''Your requested URL has been blocked as per the directions received from Department of Telecommunications, Government of India. Please contact administrator for more information''. In reality, no such url is blocked because I can access the same url on other Internet service providers except on Airtel. I am a Airtel 4g customer for last 1 year with 3gb + unlimited data (reduced speed) plan for which I pay 741 per month including taxes. (Modem was charged at 2700/- non refundable) and my Airtel number is [protected]. Please check screenshot of the first and second example attached, torrent urls blocked and the voice recording of the customer care who talks to me as if I am a new customer and avoids understanding my issue though he understood my issue in reality. Which clearly means they are cheating educated customers like me and we dont have other way to deal with this problem. Today its my problem, tomorrow it could be your problem if you become Airtel Customer. Somebody needs to take some action, or Airtel will enjoy this data download politics. And the customer will be the only sufferer. I was unable to attach the Image file and voice recording here. To get attachments / evidence please email me at [protected]@gmail.com.

I had requested for new airtel broadband and DTH connections around 3 weeks back. Details are as below Broadband account no. - [protected] DTH cust id - [protected] When I requested for these, I was told it will be installed within 3 days. Airtel executive also made an effort to come home and collect the cash. After a week I got a call from airtel office saying they cannot install DTH connections since they are scared of some local cable operator. The amount paid has not yet been refunded. I've also been calling airtel office regarding the broadband connection and have been getting the same reply that there is a problem with the DP box and will be resolved soon. Today when I called the office I was told that I won't be getting a broadband connection due to technical issues in the DP box. Whenever I called the customer care, I was told that I would get a call back from the team regarding the issue. These happened 7-8 times, but I never received a call. Airtel executives only try to acquire new customers to complete their targets. They only collect the amount and the documents and do not inform you of any problems.

Hello airtel,

1- Airtel billing system is incorrectly charging monthly rent every month
2- I explained to Airtel every time and requested to correct my billing from next month but AIRTEL failed to provide any resolution yet.

3- Refer SR 19286197 and see AIRTEL is accepting billing mistake but saying AIRTEL SYSTEM is not allowing to pass the waiver against wrong charges.

4- Every month i have been asked to call AIRTEL and ask for waiver for wrong billing which is never ending process.

5- Why CUSTOMER should call everymonth for AIRTEL FAULTY BILLING SYSTEM.


Regards,
Neeraj

Complant Reff no : "CBNRD[protected]" I'm Karun from kerala. I used airtel since 2009 with this same number. From these period i dnt have faced any prblm from ur side. But last week i faced a prblm. That is last day i got a offer that was if i recharge with 248/- rupees then i get "1.5 GB 3G". So i kindly recharge the above offer. After recharge i got 1 GB 3G but i can't get balance data. The balance data will credit to my 2G account. But the offer say that the data amount will credit on 3G account but i did n't get. Then i call airtel customer care but i cant get satisfied replay. Finally i call with senior executive of airtel customer care. The same thing is happend there i can't get satisfied replays. Finally i call to "[protected]" for assistance. Then call was take a lady and she was spoke very irritating me... My complant refference number is given below : "CBNRD[protected]" Kindly take a valubale action for this cheeting offer...

In order to experience 4G that Airtel claims is "superfast" I had recently changed my sim to a 4G enabled sim. After checking in the 4G website of Airtel if my phone is 4G enabled, I reactivated 1GB 3G data from the website on 27th Sept 2015. Initially it worked fine but after sometime I was only getting 2G connectivity. Like customer care suggested, I took out and reinserted my sim, switched off/on my phone, tried messaging 3G to 121, but nothing worked. After few calls I am told that sorry madam but your recharge was of 2G and we cannot do anything (cannot do anything is the only solution customer care ever gives!). I mentioned that I had done the recharge from website which was about 4G and it clearly mentioned 1GB 3G data. Also, this is not the first time I did a 3G recharge. Airtel should understand that customers who are calling and wasting their time have a genuine problem. May be it is just Rs 298 for them (which I can also easily afford) but this is about a person being wronged!

I was using Airtel Dish tv in Chennai for close to 4 years. Now I have moved to Bangalore and so raised a request with Airtel for movement of Dish connection as well. Connection was removed from Chennai properly. Now I have been waiting for 5 days for Airtel to assign a Service person to come and install it here in Bangalore. Multiple complaints have been raised with Customer Care and still no response. Reference Numbers : 46333561 / 46330761 / 46241527

Airtel boasts of providing the best coverage are and one of the fastest 3G data networks which is quite misleading. I live and operate in the Delhi-NCR area where one would expect no problems in the data network. Quite contrary to that, whenever I go out and move around in the malls and nearby areas, the data network is really unreliable and slow. It keeps getting disconnected frequently when moving from one area to another inside the city itself (All within the expanse of the city and not in the outskirts). From the past two days (August 26th, August 27th 2015) the problem has just worsened. I keep getting promotional messages from Airtel to get an upgrade to their 4G sim while offering such abysmal 3G service. With their new fastest 4G connection challenge promotions, I get even more irked that on one hand they are not even providing proper 3G connections to their existing consumers and on the other hand they are making these misleading, far-fetched claims in their promotions. Please look into this matter.
