Hi, I have been requesting itemised bill for my wifi usage i have written 8 mails to customer care - '[protected]@in.airtel.com' and Nodal officer 'nodalofficer.[protected]@in.airtel.com', and ombudsman - '[protected]@airtel.in', along with multiple calls. I have got verbal confirmation that the same would be sent but haven't got any statement. I have been told to login and check for my self, and have tried that too, to no avail. I have a strong feeling that I have been charged extra and therefore, there is a strong resistance to provide the details. account no - [protected]

An easy recharge of 14 was made for making isd calls. A call made to Colombo-Sri Lanka was charged @ rs14/- per minute where as the tariff mentioned in the airtel website was 10ps per second. Screenshot of the tariff is attached for reference. Kindly look into the issue and do the needful at the earliest. Thank you.

Its been long we are facing the network problem at our locality, Bagbazar . With repeated calling and telling about the network problem ...no issue was solved. Some have already switched to vodafone and some are still continuing with the same network ..hoping the problem to solve . Its high time to solve the problem - put airtel booster or tower...so that no such network problem persist. Solve the problem asap or will switch to some other network . Do it at your earliest .We all have the airtel network bu if the problem continues we will have no other option but to switch to vodafone. Its a serious issue and immediate action must be taken

I am very sorry to say that your services are not up to the mark. I had booked a new connection under your registration no. [protected] on 7th of march 2015 and was told that the connection will be installed by 12.30 in the afternoon on 8th march, but to my surprise your agents M/s R K Jain & Associates told me that my area is not coming under there circle.Then they gave me your other agents phone number on which i called and was assured that it will be installed by 4.30 in the evening. When i again called to check i was shocked to learn that this was again given to the first agent. In the mean time i talked to Airtel help desk 7-8 times but just got one word answer that we have sent a mail to the agent and they will call you. Till now ( 3.00 pm ) dt 9th March. I don't know if i should go with Airtel DTH or not. If this kind of service i am getting at the time of installation then what will be the after sales service. God my help Airtel. I am shocked with this kind of service from such a big group.

Hi, My name is Bharath, i've purchased an aitel broadband connection recently. The plan is 40 GB U/L for 999+Service tax. Initially, they've informed me that they offer a free modem for the connection. Now they started charging me for an amount of Rs. 48 as modem rental(Note:forever as long as i have this connection). Its not the charges i'm worried about, its the cheating they do just get a connection. I've expected a lot from airtel being a new customer. I've called the customer care, asked them as they are charging me for this modem, if there is a replacement guarantee. They've informed me that is not possible. I should pay this amount until I use this plan as an obligation. They've told me if I upgrade to a much costlier plan(1299+taxes) then they wont charge me for this rental. I guess these guys cant afford to have business ethics. Hope someone might resolve this issue. Thank you. Bharath [protected]@gmail.com

My number ([protected]) .I have activated internet pack of 5rps per day, 25MB is being mentioned when i got activated this pack, But without even giving any information about data pack when it got over, they are deducting money from main balance. its not first time, and they have deducted 90rps once and 40rps once. I want my money to be refunded. No proper response from customer care executive. Not happy with services provided these days .

I switched from post paid to prepaid on 06.03.2015 at your outlet at city centre 1, salt lake, kolkata and was told that within 24 hours it will be activated. According to their instruction next day rang up 59059 for verification which was done and confirmed that after 15 minutes the same will be activated which was not done. Thereafter i underwent the same procedure 4 times with the same nature of promise. To day is 9th and still it is not done. WHY WHY WHY???

Hello, Please refer an attachment (enlarge the photo attached). With some hope I am mailing, for getting your support, I am sharing my grievance and this complaint against Airtel. A month back, I visited Airtel store at Cambridge layout near Sai Baba Temple, Bangalore, with my family to get Internet Data connection. Due to my office work I had to travel lot, and I wanted for my family to communicate with me, so needed this connection. 1. Airtel store suggested me to buy their Wifi Dongle and to take a post paid connection of Rs 650pm (They have this 3GB + 3GB offer etc). ((airtel number [protected]) 2. I paid Rs 2300/- there and took that white color Dongle. I have taken the documents - Adhar Card, Gas connection book, DL, Photo But the store took only the Adhar card Xerox and photo and filled the application. They said that we will get the connection within 24 Hours. 3. Airtel executive visited our home in Cambridge layout for Address verification. 4. We were waiting for the connection, and till date we are still waiting. Due to work I have to travel and I am out of country. I am following up with Airtel, but now they have been asking us to Pay Rs 1000 again for getting this connection activated. I am feeling cheated. I never mind paying this amount, but I am against this procedure, because while selling the Dongle and getting this post paid connection, they never mentioned that I have to pay Rs 1000 as advance "For Post Paid Connection". Now they are mentioning that my home address is some negative!!!. I asked what this meaning? but I never got the reply. Instead they are forcing me saying that If I need my connection activated, thay I have to pay them Rs 1000. I attached the proof. How can some one decide whether my address is negative or positive. If this is the case, they why did they sell the Dongle to me, they should check the address, before selling these devices? I am really not feeling good with all these follow ups, so now I want them to take the Dongle Back and refund my money. How can they force me for this payment, I am not able to justify? Please can you intervene and look into this matter. In case you need any details, then please let me know, even I can call and speak to the officer, no issue. FYI:- Cambridge Executive Nos:- [protected] -- Shashi no. [protected] Bharat No. Eagerly waiting for your solution soon, Best Regards/Tapan

There is a serious problem of poor signal reception in block No. 63 Baird Place, Defence Officers Enclave Delhi Cantt locality. There is no Signal bar, when inside the house and I have to go outside for clear reception which fails the idea of a mobile. This problem has persisted for more than 2 years in this locality and there's standard reply from Nodal Team(Delhi-NCR) of Airtel that they are working towards better service & be patient and they cannot give any time period for rectification of problem. This careless attitude towards customer dissatisfaction has become their habit now. I hope this complaint is heard by somebody.

Hello, my complain is regarding my digital television set up box registed under my wife name sahana, registered mobile no-[protected]. I recently requested re installation of my set up box in siliguri due to relocation on 23rd march on ur toll free no, your rep advised me to upgrde my package to magnum as i was looking fr maximum HD channels or a period of 3 months . I was advise to make a immediate payment of Inr 2050 . I was confirmed by the employee that the validity of the package was for 3 months, as advised the payments were made by me on 24th feb. Later earlier this week i happen to call your customer service brach on 6th march and was informed that the employee i spoke with on 23rd feb did not activate the pack he asked me to make the payment for and hence my validity is not for 90 Days . I spoke to various customer servicce nd escalation specialist but their insufficient knowledge landed me up with escalation team lead himanshu . I was informed by the lead that they would liten to the call recording and arrange for a call back on my reg mobile no by 1300 Hrs on 7th march . As obvious with my past experience with airtel that never happened . This would be an ideal example of pathetic customer service provider by airtel . Hence am escalating this matter over to your escalation forum . Post this if still my issue persists and i do not receive a call back i would take this further with ombudsman and consumer court. Thank you . parvinder singh gill

There is a serious problem of poor signal reception in Sector 8, Faridabad locality. Signal bars reduce to 1 to 2 out of 5, when inside the house and I have to go outside for clear reception which fails the idea of a mobile. This problem has persisted for more than 2 years in this locality and there's standard reply from Nodal Team(Delhi-NCR) of Airtel that they are working towards better service & be patient and they cannot give any time period for rectification of problem. This same answer was given to my mother's repeated complaints nearly 2yrs. ago and their reply hasn't changed since. This careless attitude towards customer dissatisfaction has become their habit now. I hope this complaint is heard by somebody.

Then I tried again doing same recharge, it got successfully recharged and I got confirmation also for...

Kind Attn :- Customer care dept . This is reference to my complaint which I logged today at your 121 customer regarding my broad band connectivity problem, Today Aitel service Engineer coming to my house and just simply says your wireless router is faulty and please change and pay Rs1649 pay for new modem . This is very surprised for me I am using this Airtel laneline connection last 10 year and just airtel simply says pls pay for this router. If I pay for new router then there is no point using Airtel services. Please consider my complaint on top priority. My request being a old customer please consider this complaint and change my router without any cost. Other wise I am not interested for Airtel connection .

I am using AIRTEL 4G LTE NO. [protected] and as per latest sms received on my registered mobile no. [protected]--" You have consumed [protected] bytes and have crossed 100 percent of your data limit..." I am now finding that my 4G connection is very very slow and I am not able to work problem due to slow internet speed. In case I need to have trouble free, fast internet connection, please send me a detailed email highlighting the modus operandi, terms and conditions and cost etc involved--since I am using this for official purpose and my office is reimbursing me towards this facility--therefore, proper proposal from your side is essential so that my office can take this forward. Being without an Internet connection in the present times is no less than being marooned on an island. I hope you respond to the serious nature of my predicament and take adequate steps to ensure my rights as a customer. I have established to my satisfaction that the problem is beyond my control, and that you are not providing the service I am paying for. I work online, so it is essential that I have Internet that is functional. If you cannot guarantee service, I will have to move to another provider. Please send me your detailed proposal ASAP. IN CASE I DO NOT RECEIVE A FORMAL REPLY/ANSWER FROM YOUR END, IT SHALL BE PRESUMED THAT YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY AND OFFER, and I SHALL BE AT A LIBERTY TO TAKE SUCH STEP/S INCLUDING MOVING TO ANOTHER VENDOR, WITH LOTS OF COMPLAINTS TO ALL SUNDRY ABOUT YOUR PATHETIC SERVICE.
