Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I have had my prepaid airtel mobile since 2010. I have rarely used it for public or business purposes. I am also a very private person. Since, the past one year, I have been getting calls and messages on this phone number from unknown people and unknown businessmen and telemarketers. None of them are willing to disclose how they are getting my number which is not available publicly or in the phone directories. i think someone in the company is selling our personal information and contact details from the KYC norms forms that they collect. Some of the callers are even aware of the banking and insurance details of the customer probably by data mining from the PAN numbers in the form.

This email is regarding the refund that i was supposed to get by 5/62015 of a broadband connection that had been rejected due to some faulty cable or whatever. The application number is TBLR6971591. I have applied for a connection two months back and it took around a month for you to tell me that the connection cannot be provided. Due to this i was supposed to get a refund of Rs 1000 that i paid as an installation fee. I have been calling the customer care number but nobody is picking up. I'm not at all aware of the status of the refund. I'm asking you to take necessary action and kindly refund me back my money. I'm really frustrated and disappointed at Airtel. You have wasted my time and consumed a lot of my enegy.. A company of your reputation should have some responsibility towards a customer. Anyways I'm requesting you to kindly refund me my money ASAP. Regards, Amlan Jyoti Baruah.

On 9th June 2015 I got my airtel recharged with Rs 192 for 1 GB 3G data. I also got erecharge succesful confirmation mesaage from airtel stating that your number has been successfully recharged with Rs 192, Benefits - 1 GB 3G data for 21 days. But when I switched on and switched off my mobile data to check the available 3G balance it was 524 sumthing MB data only. I called up customer support to complain but they refused to file the complaint saying that the plans have been changed. If the company's plans are changed then why the hell they are sending out recharge successful messages for 1GB data instead of 524 etc.. I had spoken to Mr Rakesh Kumar with reference no. - [protected]

I have so many grudges with the airtel for past 2-3 months but this time all the height which has got crossed. I have called customer care on 20th may 2015 night to Activate my International Roaming, they have told me that its the 999 plan so, i told them to activate it. i received the message same night about the conformation and same night my phone network goes. i called customer care again and again from other numbers regarding the problem I have been facing but they replied me that ur request is pending and ur no will be activated in 4 to 24 hours. but all in vain. my family members, who are in India, remained in touch with customer care(CC) about the problem and every time they assured them that it will start working in 2-3 hours. even after reaching abroad my phone doesnt picks network and problem persists. on 26th evening when i landed in india my phone doesnt picks network, i called CC notified the problem that said because of international roaming pending request it has not been working, they cancelled the request and after 1-2 hours my phone starts working. after repeated attempts made by me by contacting CC and going to ur airtel office in my city and noting my complaint regarding the bill of Rs.999 which is pasted along with my bill, for which ur organisation have not provided me services. i have personally contacted CC many time some says that it was pending, some says it has been activated and some says that CC executive make a mistake that 999 is a pack to make calls in International Roaming cheaper. he has to first activate pack of Rs 149 to pick up network outside India. now my question arises that, 1) where is my mistake.. 2) I havent used any o[censored]r the service during International Roaming neither u provided me. 3) infact for those 6 days, for which my phone doesnt picks network, my monthly rental and data pack rental for 6 days needs to be waived off morally and ethically along with Rs. 999. 4) Ni-ether my requested call with seniors have been arranged even after repeated attempts since last one week. now ur good self is requested to waive off my Rs. 999 from my monthly bill along side 6 days rental and email me my new bill as early as possible as i will not be responsible for ur late payment charges, as i will not be paying up my bill till the matter get resolved. in wait of of a justice from ur end as i have got harassed many a times. not only the harassment, but amount of time i am wasting in contacting CC and writing these mails is not possible for me all days. this is type o[censored]nprofessional behavior from a company of such repute is neither acceptable and nor expected. so i am waiting for a quick and positive reply from ur end else i will be forced to shut all my numbers with airtel and forced to sue a case in Consumer affairs and lodge a complaint with TRAI, and CCI. and i will be forced to go to media and social to open a protest against the ur company. my last suggestion to ur company is that kindly recruit those CC Representative who knows something or train them fully before they are behind the desk to help anyone, so that persons like me can be avoided of any such harassment. this is my last mail and next time i will be writing it directly to Telecom Secretary and telecom minister, Prime minister, PMO and TRAI also...

Dear Concern, My name is Amit and my Airtel prepaid mobile no is [protected]. I had recharged my 3g data balance through your official My Airtel app with Rs.149 on 7th June 2015, When i was recharging the Rs.149 plan benefits were showing with 500mb data with 28 days of validity on your official app. But i got 460mb data with 14 days of validity only. I had called to customer care they told me that the plans has been changed yesterday. Your airtel official app is still showing 500mb data with 28 days of validity in Rs.149 plan. Now who is the responsible for this. I just want to get same benefits as that time was showing on app before recharge. I would like to inform you that My Airtel official app in still showing 28 days of validity with 500mb data balance in Rs.149 recharge as on today on 9th of June 2015. I'm also attaching that screenshot. -Amit

My postpaid connection has been deactivated on 5th June, 2015 arount at 10 p.m. While my prepaid connection has not been activated yet. Although after continous follow up i have not received any response from the relationship center situated at Bhuj city of Kutch district. My contact number is off since last 4 days and I am facing lots of problem. Also on 5th June 2015, My request for converting from postpaid to prepaid was 3rd time. previous 2 times my postpaid card was not deactivated.

Hi, My airtel no [protected], I am using this no since more then 5 years. Suddenly on 8 June 2015, My no deactivated. I talked to customer care and sent email regarding this issue. They are saying that document verification is failed. This is very disgusting that after more then 5 years use of sim, airtel saying document verification is failed. Thanks Vinay

There is a signal problem in Rupena agrahara as there are no airtel towers set up in that area. The tower is at bomanhalli. So the signal is very weak and it gets disconnected automatically while talking. There is no network available when dialing from room.Please set up a airtel tower near Rupena Agrahara.
