I see that there is a deduction of 800 Rs in one day for data services. I do not get any message before I am shifted to this expensive plan, please return part of this money to my number[protected] and also part of it to my wife's number[protected]. I am your customer for last 10 years and I hope to get some respect from Airtel. Regards Manohar Joshi [protected]

I contacted airtel to get new broadband connection on 27/07/2015 . On 28/07/2015 a sales representative came and collected documents and amount of Rs 1100/- and told they will give connection on or before sunday 02/08/2015 (sales person Ramesh - Ph [protected]). On 28th itself sales person checked the airtel connection box it is feasible to give a new connection and said the connection can be given with 4mbps plan. On saturday 01/08/2015 another person contacted me they will connection on that day but nobody came, so i contacted again on sunday they said they will come soon so i waited and called them in that evening and they gave a reply they don't have wire to connect. So i contacted Monday, Tuesday repeatedly they replied with just don't have the wire . Even a customer care contacted me about new connection is given, i hae complained to them also no response. So i asked them today refund the money and documents given by me. And asked the manager number of sales (Saravanan Ph [protected]) and Installation manger (Karthik [protected]) i contacted them several times they are not evening attending the calls . After several times asking for the refund only a person came to give connection with the wire . I asked the person that i don't want your connection because of bad service. Airtel is one of the big company providing broadband they don't even have a wire to give broadband connection? I don't know what they are thinking.

I am residing at chromept- chennai. i had applied for the broadband connection a month ago and i receive a call from your representative, and they came and ask me to fill the form and he gave me the acknowledgement slip for my payment RS-1200+motnhly charges for plan and he said with in 48 hours you will get a connection and modem. next two days i was trying to reach him he was not picking up the call.
and next day i called tohis santhome branch office they said there was some connection issues thats why its taking time sir, please wait for a week time.

After a week time i called to the branch and they given one more no to conntact for the further process and they said wait for two more days after that no one was able to reachable
i spent around 150 rs to making all these calls
Day before yesterday some one called me and said please ask any one from your to street to apply for a airtel broadband connection and i said i am not going todo that so please cancel my application and he said OK

i thought airtel company mobile network company and they are doing MLM business
i received the SMS that pls provide your bank details and cancelled cheque leaf and we will refund your amount of RS 1000 i paid around 2000. please assist.

Dear Sir/Madam I want to say that my Airtel 4G number [protected] is not working from the last 4 days.As I had registered complaint to Bharti Airtel Ltd., Plot No. 21, Rajiv Gandhi Technology Park, Chandigarh - 160 101 but nobody is attending the complaints and they are mentally harrasing me from the last 3 days by saying that there is a downtime going on.Please take a legal action against Airtel Customercare as soon as possible.Thanks With Regards Puneet Pal Singh

I am an airtel customer from past 4 years. i have switched to 3G connection few years ago but from that day i am not getting 3G services. I always recharge for 3G internet but my phone gets 2G speed. i have raised this issue several times. Please look into this matter. Vibhu Prakash [protected]

I have purchesed prepaid sim 15days back bearing no [protected].only after one week message receivedstateing recharge successful for RS84/.on 25.7.15.so for the same is not activated There is no out going till today inspite of my repeated approach to the outlet cousing much inconveniance.

I am facing worst service from Airtel after i ported from KA to TN circle. I am not getting proper benefits when i do recharge; so many mails i sent to 121, nodal and appellete officiers. They are taking more time to resolve each of my issues. So, strongly recommended that, not to port to AIRTEL.. its better to go with other operator.

I have been paying airtel for a 4G plan for the past 6-7 months but they have me under their 3G plan for the entire period.
when i approached the Customer Service they blatantly refuse any wrong doing.

I have all the proofs and communications documented in emails. They are so cheap that they even take the time to delete the portion of the email that proves that they have goofed up.

Someone called from Airtel asking me to pay the bill and that they will refund the late payment fees as the whole thing has been in dispute but the Customer Service is again in a mode of Denial.

The Customer Service does not even bother to read the context of my request or the case's history, instead they respond telling me about 4G mobile network when the entire email chain is about a 4G dongle which is supposed to have a 4G plan (and I am being charged for it every month religiously) but they have activated a 3G plan for 6 months ..

I think the management should be tried in a court of law for not providing skilled Customer Service for millions of customers and trying to get away with hiring half witted fools with no sense.

But my complain is that they sold me a product and gave me another and have caused me immense amount of stress and grief trying to get it resolved. I requested for the contact for their escalation team twice on email and the Customer Service has failed to provide that too.

They need to learn a lesson on who they should hire and what they should be trained on, else millions will suffer like me (or maybe already suffering).

Do something before they become a National Disgrace

I had submitted a cancellation request for airtel[protected], which said cancellation will happen within 7 days. I got a call on the same day where an executive asked why was I moving from airtel. I informed I got a better speed with more data download for a cheaper price, why would I not switch. In the same call I was offered a plan of 899 at 16Mbps for 40GB limit and that it would be activated in 24 hours and the plan would be adjusted in the same billing cycle as per pro-rata basis. Even after 5 days nothing happened and when contacted customer care, they informed me only the cancellation request is recorded and nothing else. I asked what is the status of the cancellation request for which there was no update and another request for cancellation was created[protected] here it says the concern will be resolved in 46 days- which is more than a month. Initial request said only 7 days and why does this take 46 days? who will pay for this 46 days? What happened to the intial request? What happened to the offer that was promised?

Dear sir,
my sim card ( prepaid mobile no. [protected] ) registration has been failed on[protected] without any previous intimation to me ...My existing balance including data balance is sufficient... I had been port the number from aircel to airtel a few months back...

My present contact no. [protected]

I am facing some issue my wifi. It keep on disconnecting. I called up their call center did troubleshoot and booked up a truck roll. I never received a call neither I got technician at my home. Is airtel is living up to his reputation. This frustrating.

I had an Airtel Postpaid connection. I ported out my connection to Vodafone w.e.f 11 July 15. In the final bill an access charge of about Rs 400 has been charged (wrong calculation of discount component for last day, 11 July 15) which was not advised to me earlier. When I contacted local Airtel Showroom, I was rudely declined the resolution (by their representative, Mr Ashish) saying that they serve only loyal airtel cstomers and not ones who have ported out to competition. Airtel website or call center can not help as the number is no more in their records. I have written to nodalofficer.[protected]@in.airtel.com also and am waiting for the response. Please help to escalate the matter to right agency so that I can release the correct payment and maintain a healthy credit history. Thanks and regards

I tried to contact you in this regard, however, was unable to reach you. We have verified your account details and would like to inform you that currently 4G services are active. As 4G/3G internet pack is not active on your mobile, you have been charged at the rate of 01 paisa/10 Kb. We recommend you to opt for a 3g data pack to help you save on your internet usage. You can even buy Night packs, which are available at a significant discount compared to other data packs. Visit *http://www.airtel.in/night* or dial *129*4# (Toll free) to activate the desired pack.

I send this following email to Airtel support on 20/6/2015 -------- "Hi, I subscribed internet plan for rs 250/- only. But my data usage is showing by that is too much. I didnt received any gentle reminder of my data usage, i received this email and message after reaching data limit of 1266MB and now you charging extra money that is 750 RS. Its happening again second time with me. Before this i ignored but now its too much. Please fix this issue because I am willing to pay that extra amount. " But they disnt agree on there mistake and not the send me an ebill for rs 1190.54/- They are not responding properly and forcing me to pay this bill at my end but fault is at there end. They didnt send me any notification or alert message before exceeding the data and this happened 2nd time again with me. At the first time i ignored but now i can. i will not pay this amount of bill. I need my actual bill. To much frustrating services by Airtel, They will not admit there mistakes anywhere always try to charge much or try to deduct your mount in prepaid balance. They will never provide you a appropriate solution and will not fix your issue. Here, In attachment i am only attaching a single email proof, if required then i can share complete email thread, which i had with Airtel. Please help.

Airtel gave wrong information about my internet pack and said me to use internet free, but it charged me Rs.200(avg) after that Airtel activated a Rs.250 as per their choice and charged me Rs.250. kindly take a complain as I tried many times to give complain but they are not taking any complain . I don't have more time, so please help me to refund.

Dear Customer Support, Its been so long since I have been trying to get hold of someone at Airtel who can at least respond to the problems I am facing because of your "Efficient Customer Care" support, as I have already written this mail to several of nodal officers, mail ids are mentioned below and some screen shots are attached 1. Vivek Sharma dthnodal.[protected]@in.airtel.com 2. Manish Goel dthnodal.[protected]@in.airtel.com 3. nodalofficer.[protected]@in.airtel.com If you can spare some time and go through the trail mails. I am once again re-iterating my problem: "I have recently shifted to Vatika Lifestyle Homes Sector 83 Gurgaon and residing at N1 601. I have placed a request to install two Airtel DTH set top boxesat my place in two different rooms. I got a call from Mr. Abhay (May be the dealer +91-[protected]) and Mr. Shailender (Actual installation guy +91-[protected] / +91-[protected]) for the same and when the latter (Mr. Shailender) visited my flat, i made him aware of the situation that Vatika is allowing only single wire from roof to the flat and that too internally, so if you can support two set top boxes (at two different rooms which are required to work at the same time) through one wire. To which he said that he has never done so but he can give it a try, to which i said that i will give you back both the boxes if the system fails and not able to fulfil my requirements. After that he gave it a try and put the system on trial for 3-4 days but as expected things did not work. I asked him to take back both the boxes and refund my money as it is of no use, to which he is straight away denied and asked me to contact the Dealer or Airtel. And saying he can take back one box and other things which are not at all logical. Its been more than 30 days, since i am requesting this gentleman to refund and take back the stuff but to no use. I want to use Airtel but if there is no solution to my problem then i will go ahead with some other operator who can provide me with a better solution. As other service provider like Tata Sky and Dish etc. are supporting two set-top boxes through one single wire. I request you again to please refund my money and tame back your set top boxes. And i would like to suggest strongly, not to employ such unprofessional people as they will only help spoiling the image of a brand like Airtel. Kindly look into the same and provide me with a solution." I am writing this mail with a hope to get resolution to my problem. Looking forward to get at-least a response. Thanks and regards, Piyush Pande Ph:+[protected]

Hi All, I got my number ported to Airtel Karnataka on 26th of July. Ever since then my mobile internet is not working . I tried reaching out for help from the service provider, on 121, Airtel store and every possible point of contacts. However from anywhere and everywhere what I ever got was wastage of time, unreasonable turnaround time, fake reasons almost everything but the solution. And lastly when I approached the Airtel store in order to get a NOC so that I may get this number ported to some other service provider within 6 month of portability they even declined the same. So please let me know that what options am I left with as a consumer, # As per TRAI guidelines I can’t change my service provider in within 6 months of 1st portability # Airtel has not given me a solution in 8 day time frame.(And not even willing to give as per there “Tech. Service Executive”) # As per there misleading “Tech. Service Executive” am using the second SIM for the same number.(Had to buy new SIM ) # Also I am supposed to pay for the services which I have never used, just because is so called “Airtel’s My Plan”. Just let me know that if Airtel has got license as an telecom operator or license to harass and rob customers. AIRTEL GOES VERY WELL WITH “ANY PROBLEM, NO SOLUTION” !!A sad Consumer!! Aditya Kumar
