Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Date: 18th June, 2015 Client Number: [protected] Description: I've been using airtel for years now. The service offered used to be top class. Recently I moved to Pune. I did not want to change my number and thus I've continued using the same sim card. However, the network quality dropped and the roaming rates spiked. While I could manage with their initial roaming rates, last month they spiked the rates and it is no longer financially feasible to continue using Airtel services. I tried contacting 121 and found out the procedure to port the number. However, I'm unable to send any kind of messages from my phone. I tried to submit a complaint with 198. After 8 minutes on the line, a customer service executive picked up the call and said he cannot answer any query as my sim card is registered in Kerala. I called the Kerala number that he gave me then, but I could not get through to another executive and now my sim card is blocked from contacting the customer care services. I tried then to call the nodal officer, but however, that was another pointless effort. I selected the section where I tried contacting 121 and 198 and failed and the only response I got was to call 121 or 198. Desired Resolution: If Airtel can assure good service, well and good. Otherwise, I want to port my number to a better service provider.

Ref: My postpaid no [protected] Airtel Mumbai circle. Since 26/5/15, I have a very slow data speed on 2G. On 26/5/15 SMS was received and since then, Nodal and Appellate Mumbai both are writing contradicting statements (within the sae email) stating that my quota has been used and so the reduced speed. In the same email they are confirming I have used 304MB of my quota of 720MB. Please help. I have 40 emails, 2 Airtel Express visits 4-5 calls done, and am helpless.

I made an online transaction on 15th June 2015 against an advertisement requesting for charity in the below website https://my-airtel.com/pay/SelfcareTopUp/LPrmVL3DMj3CheudFfGuhSx2Fu8UJKJQoPT/ The transaction amount entered was Rs.10 After entering my details and OTP for the transaction, the result came as transaction failure. But Rs. 5000/- has been debited from my SBI bank account no: [protected] and credited to POS PRCH POS[protected] WWW MOBIKWIK COM NEW DELHI Please resolve this issue in a day or two. If not resolved, I will file a complaint against Airtel (I thought it would be a safe transaction since it was Airtel's official website) to the Cyber Crime wing of Police Department and also go to the news papers to highlight these type fraudulent loop holes available in Airtel money (which is being advertised as very safe over the television). Even if the money was transferred to MOBIKWIK the transaction was through Airtel website. Contact email id: [protected]@gmail.com

I have been not using my Airtel sim and wanted it to be deactivated. Since i am out of the country for the last two months my wife has been continuously going to the Airtel relationship center's in Kolkata to get my number deactivated. They are always creating new problems and saying we cannot deactivate the number, without the subscribers presence even though i have authorised my wife to deactivate the number on my behalf. She carries all the documents they ask for and still they are always asking that the subscriber be present or some problem or the other. From the last two months, they have been charging my rental amounts and sending me bills. I just want the amounts reverted and the number deactivated. The number i want deactivated is [protected]

My request: Hi I stay in Padmarao nagar beside Gharonda super market. This is a very well established place and very crowded area. It is very near to Secunderabad Railway Station. We have 3 airtel numbers - 2 postpaid and 1 prepaid. There is no proper airtel signal in this place and we are having lot of difficulties in accessing the network. We are thinking about porting our numbers to another network within the end of this month. Your feedback acts as the roadmap for our planning on network deployment and I have forwarded your location details to my technical team for future network planning. Airtel reply: Network enhancement involves clearance and approvals from local authorities and some external factors owing to which it may not be possible to provide you a specific time frame for resolving your concern. I would like to assure you that it is our continuous endeavor to provide high quality service to the satisfaction of all our customers. I expected atleast a technician to call or check in the area to investigate the reason behind network issues. The area is densely populated and still there are network issues.

someone with [protected] this mobile no calling my friends frequently and asks them about me with my name and address. He asks for money. He then tells them that there is a Case filed against me in Delhi. the same sort of issue with same number i found on internet http://forum.tikona.in/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=85403 this is the link where there is a complaint against tikona company which provides internet connections. By harassing people they earn money.
