I made a recharge of 558 on 28/08/2021 at 15.01.22. using airtel thanks app, the amount was taken but no recharge done. now when i call 400 they ask me to call 121 and 121 will ask to call 400. in this way i have contacted them almost 10 times and at last they ask me to send email to [protected]@in.airtel.com, so i have sent a mail then i have received a mail asking me to register my email id. then again i called 121 and registered but i didnt recieve conformation mail. then again i got a mail to register online so i did it. but till now i didnt recieve my recharge. My mobile number is [protected]

      Delay in airtel fiber installation

      I subscribed for an Airtel Broadband Connection(fiber) in Patna, Bihar. But the Person took installation charges from me on 26th/25th august.
      When I call him all he does is give excuses and pins the issue on the technical team, saying we will get that done tomorrow.
      His name is Amit kumar and his contact number is [protected].
      This man, Amit kumar gave me the number of a technician saying he can't do anything anymore,...

      Hi Sir,

      I moved to USA few months and requested Airtel to change my post paid mobile service to prepaid. Customer care is not at all responding and at last they said that customer need to present in person to change from post paid to prepaid. I am not using Airtel from few months and they are sending mail to pay the bill every month. Can you please help to change my post paid service to pre paid.

      Thank and Regards,
      Vinod

            I was already airtel dth customer for almost 8 years long. I stopped using dth connection since 6 months. 1 month back I planned to get airtel broadband connection the executive said it's free for a month (trial pack) and it would just use my dth number and I'd details. I am not happy with their service & not interested to continue. To my shock am being charged everyday as subscription charges of dth. I called dth airtel twice now they are saying we need to clear the whole outstanding to get our security deposit. With it after giving complain number twice I was never called by their so called supervisors.

              I am airtel customer for over 20 years. I have moved to USA recently but kept my two airtel mobile numbers, mostly for sentimental reasons. Since I visit India once in 2 years for few weeks, I changed my numbers to prepaid to keep them active at minimal cost. Recharging a mobile via airtel site is completely useless, 7 times already, money gets deducted and airtel site apologies for technical issue and refunds money after few days. Today already paid 3 times, money gone from credit card / bank account, not sure it will come back. Tried reaching to airtle support via 121 email and all they responds is call them, really from USA about a simple recharge failing. Not sure when Indian service providers will raise to global standards. I will surely move out during my next visit, so long to 23 years relationship with Airtel.

                Hi,

                My number [protected] airtel sim has became faulty and while getting replacement sim came to know that my name is incorrectly recorded as SHNU Nair R instead of Vishnu Nair R.

                Iam presently in Kerala and checked from a nearby customer service centre to change the same but they are saying as the sim is of Karnataka/Bangalore circle i need to visit there in person to get it done (even if i give an authorization letter to my friend they are not accepting it).

                Due to this covid situation iam not able to go to Bangalore in person to get this changed. Kindly suggest any other way in which the name in my record can be changed so that i can request for a replacement sim.

                Regards,
                Vishnu

                        It's been 1 month now, and none of the airtel staff are responding to the issue that me and husband is having. On 28th of July our both Airtel Sim have stopped receiving OTPs and text messages even though we have recharged and the validity is still there. Reached out to regional managers, customer service but no solution. They dropped a mail asking many questions and steps to follow which we already did and told them. But there was no response or solution till date. I really want to sue them in consumer court because of the trouble they are causing us during this Pandemic and being abroad.

                                Airtel has reduced it's duration of bill due date by 2 days. Earlier if bill was generated on 19th of each month & payment has to be done by last day of that month & auto bill payment was executed. Now bill generated on 19th & pay by 28th of everymonth. Where as auto bill payment will be done on 30th & airtel is charging late payment charges. Airtel has not done communicated with customer on change of plan, neither allow us to pay without late payment fee or attend customer complaint raised by customer. They close your complaint ticket in after few days without resolution & also keep promoting ads like they are trying to achieve 0 complaints

                                      I am using prepaid sim, usually I used to recharge "unlimited plan" ( like Rs 399/ 56 days). Due to my low usage of calls and data I have recharged "smart recharge" ( like for calls Rs. 79 / 28 days and for data Rs.48 / 3 GB) . After few hours I am checking my balance is zero.
                                      So, I have called customer care and enquired about it. She said you have used the data that's why money is deducted. I am explaining her that I have call and data pack then why there is deduction. Replay I have got is " first they will deduct the money from main balance for data usage after the balance become zero the data pack will be start in use."
