But after waiting for 48 hours I again today that is 24th feb call to your call centre this time I have again words with your another senior executive but this time a very arrogant person who didn't know how to have talk with cutomer, I belive that he didn't have any knowledge of ANY RULES AND REGULATION OF THE COMPANY have words with me his NAME IS SATYAM AS told by him first of all he talked to me in very rude behaviour and when i asked him about the visit of the person he told me that you are wrond as i am telling lie i asked him to listen the recordings he started giving me answers in very bad way. and in worse he cut my phone without giving me answer just buy sying your ending lines thanks fir callin in airtel If airtel use to continue to appoint these type of people as a senior executive no one use airtel. please take appropiate action on him or else i will file a case in consumer court on airtel or i can go even to press as i don't allow anyone to talk me like this inspite of their fault

      i have requested for disconnection of my 4G airtel number [protected] on 17th feb. however even after a week my 4G number is still active and AIRTEL is not terminating my connection. i have sent many follow up mail to them to process the disconnect request but all in vain. a little google search shows that it's a common practice by AirTel to continue the subscription for 1-2 month to cheat them for more money and many a times they will come up after 1-2 year with a bill of 10-15k and will threaten to file a lawsuit. i do not wants to happen any of these things with me. Since my bill will be generated on 25th feb please make sure that this will be my last bill and i do not have to pay any other bill apart from this. AirTel complain reference number 60379158 Thanks Devesh Mob: [protected]

      they did not terminate it gracefully after multiple calls and mails they have stopped calling me however i feared they might again comeback after 3-4 year with some huge bill and i will have all the emails to counter any of false claim in future.

          My Name is Manoj Shetty, Residing in Malad east, Mumbai was using Airtel Postpaid Sim card for last 6 to 8 months want to register a complaint against Airtel. I have been using Airtel connection for past several years never switched to other network because i was very much satisfied with the service but my recent bad treatment from the company really upset me and i will never ever recommend airtel to anyone. 5 to 6 months back i switched from prepaid to postpaid connection due to severe brainwash from the lady representative. Initial 2 to 3 months i was receiving normal monthly bill of arounf Rs.650/- to 690/- and i was paying it regularly. Later they activated International Roaming offer without my consent and charged me bill of Rs.4, 200/- (Approx) which i refused to pay resulted in barring of my incoming and outgoing services. Later i spoke to the Senior Person and he said it was activated from their end hence they sent me the revised bill of Rs.249/- This is the closed chapter Later i felt ill because of jaundice and was in my room jobless for nearly 2 months, So i couldnt pay the bill. The bll was Rs.2, 297/-They had barred all my incoming and outgoing services also they harassed all my contacts threatening for legal action. One day a lady representative called my friend while i was with him and i picked the call and i told her my condition and asked 2 monoths time for payment of bill even she agreed too. AFter 1.5 months my health got fine and i grabbed the job was attempting for online payment which was unsuccessful and i was getting error message( Please enter valid airtel mobile number) Since then i forgot the issue and there was no calls from airtel after that. Now all of a sudden on 23/02/2015 i received a call from a person representating himself as Senior Advocate named Rajendra Choudhary from Delhi Patiala High Court Mobile No : [protected] informs me that he had sent a legal notice to me although i didnt receive that and told that on non payment of outstanding bill he will send summons. Another advocate called me refuse to disclose his name Mobile No :[protected] (In Truecaller SIM card location is Rajasthan) threatened to issue a police warrant against me. I have call recording of the conversation with me. Suggest me what should be my course of action ??? They have mentally harassed me a lot.

            Hi, The reason for writing this complaint is that, I am a vodafone customer and I wanted to port my number to airtel because of bad services. I submitted all my documents at Airtel Office, Indiranagar where they provided me with a new expired SIM Card. And after 10 days I went to ask the status of my number portability, they tell that these SIM cards have been expired and it takes 13 more days to get new ones. They refunded the amount after we returned the cards. Atleast they did not have the courtesy to ask sorry. Its a bad service at Airtel office, Indiranagar. Why don't they have stock in airtel office? Why weren't those new SIM cards checked before issuing them? This kind of service is intollerable.

            Same thing happened with me.They gave me a wrong sim.They didn't even say sorry.I had no connection for two days

              Having Complained on 26th Jan, the company executive advised me that until the bill is not generated they can't help. So I preferred to wait for bill generation. After the bill generation they are unable to explain the reason for excessive data usage for which they had charged Rs.500 extra and also they had charged Rs.5 for the SMS that they seek for the reply of their customer care feedback.(with service charges extra) When will the companies stop Overcharging their customer and loot them in case of Post-paid customers. It is a very strong negative message from the company who is holding licence on National level. Regards Jaikumar Bothra [protected]

                        This is regarding Wrong Commitment by Airtel Customer Service Executive & Corp. Sales Executive regarding my add-on Post paid connection#[protected]. While taking this connection I was being committed following by your Corp. Sales Executive (Updesh Kumar, Mob. No.[protected]) which I later confirmed with Customer Service Executive by dialing 121. - If i call a CUG Mobile Connection(i.e. [protected]) which is in Roaming from my CUG Mobile connection(i.e. [protected]), the incoming on the CUG Mobile Connection(i.e. [protected]) which is in Roaming will be absolutely Free While outgoing will be charged on the CUG Mobile Connection(i.e. [protected]) which is in Roaming and vice-versa. - If the Both CUG Mobile Connection are in roaming only outgoing calls will be charged from both of the connection whereas incoming will be free on one of them i.e. If [protected] calls [protected] while in roaming incoming will be free on [protected] whereas outgoing will charged on [protected] @ standard corp. Roaming rate and vice-versa. This can be checked with your Corp. Sales Executive (Updesh Kumar, Mob. No.[protected]) as well as recording of conversation between 121 executive on one of these date & time which are 21/JAN/2015 15:44:25, 21/JAN/2015 16:08:15 & 24/JAN/2015 20:55:19. Based on these commitment I was being charged Rs.127.5 for 06-Feb-2015 bill and will be charged for 05-Feb-2015 to 23-Feb-2015 period for 06-Mar-2015 bill until i called 121 executive for Bill Clarification today sometime back. When i called today the 121 executive confirmed me that the commitment made were wrong and in order to get free incoming while roaming on [protected] you need to add Rs.75 pack which I have added. Hence based on the matter, I must need waiver for Rs.127.5 charged for 06-Feb-2015 bill as well as amount will charged with 06-Mar-2015 bill of incoming from [protected] for 05-Feb-2015 to 23-Feb-2015 period. Please call me if anything. Thanks & Regards Akhilesh Kumar Cell - [protected]

                            My name is Asif Ali and I live in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. For the past 2 years I have been a regular paying user of Airtel broadband connection and was given good offers which I later upgraded to. Recently I shifted my house to the next street from where I was previously residing. The distance was about 50 metres. I had to disconnect my connection temporarily so that I could reconnect once I'm done shifting but now when I ask them to reconnect they took 10 days to respond after I made 10 to 15 calls and wasn't replied properly every time. Now they say that the area I'm living in is not feasible for reconnection. People around my street all have Airtel connection except me. This is injustice from the customer point of view. I have not delayed in any payments and have been a constant user where most of the mobile connection in my home is of Airtel. I am really disappointed in Airtel. You lost the trust the customers had in you. Shameful act. Would not even recommend to my biggest enemy. I would not like to see people suffer like I did with this issue.

                                    would like to inform you that I have recharged internet gprs pack of 99 on 10th feburary 2015 from your customer care service but till now on 23th feburary 2015, I am not able to use my internet, I have contacted your technical helpline number also that is [protected] more than 8 to 10 times but from there also I am not getting any satisfactory answer, i have contacted Mr.XYZ there he was a Team Lead in technical team and he told me to give just 2 more days I'll resolve your problem or I'll give your recharge amount back into your main account balance. The error which I am getting when I try to browse my internet is "Packet Data: Authorization Fail", i have saved all the setting which I got from your customer care and I have done manual settings also but I not able to browse, I have changed the handset also in which but in other handset also I am getting the same error, I have contacted your ARC also but of not use. Whenever I got call back from your service they simply says that your problem has been resolved and its working fine now we have checked at our center and they simply close the ticket but the problem remains the same in my handset. I have contacted your Ahmadabad technical team also but from there also I have not got any satisfactory answer. I have been using internet in my handset from the beginning when I purchased the connection but from last recharge I am not able to use internet, I am looking forward to here some good news from your technical team, I thought you can provide internet to your prepaid connections also handling so big number of connections can't resolve one simple problem.

                                      I chandra kanta sasmal having Airtel postpaid net connection (Number :[protected]---Unlimited plan) . But every month I have paid the net bill Rs. 224.00 (Approx) before due date. My due date is 15th of month. Always after paid the full dues net speed slow down (average speed 2.00 to 5.00 KBPS) for next 10 to 15 days. I think this cheating to customer by Airtel. I am facing same problem from last 4 months. But at the time of activation, Airtel officer have told me that every month average mobile airtel net speed will be 40.00 kbps. If you cannot increase the net speed then please close my Airtel net connection... Awaiting for your reply...
