Airtel Complaints & Reviews

First of all i want to sat that airtel is the worst network i have ever seen, there is not network available anytime we go out or in our house itself, this is the problem with many of them not only me. Secondly I have never activated DND service in my mobile, then how come without intimating me DND service was activated, it is just to make money, I have a airtel data plan, and when it expires mesaage come 3 days before that it is going to expire, then how come suddenly DND service was activated. Airtel just cheats to make money from customers. I hereby request to take strict actions, I cannot tolerate this further as this is not happening to me first time, it happened to me earlier also.

Hi, on 7th feb I took a smart byte of 5gb for my airtel id [protected]_tn . Later in the day Internet was dead. I called the airtel and raised a complaint. The technician kumaresan fixed the issue and adviced me to change the plan. I told him just now I added a 5gb in smart byte, so want to do it on the next billing cycle. He confirmed me that he is doing that and called the customer executive Prakash. He informed the same to Prakash and when prakash spoke with me he said you need a upgrade to 8mbps and 30 GB. I said yes, he immediately said it is activated. I asked him what to do with my smartbyte and he said it is gone. What the hell is this. It is a clear cheating. And prakash just said he cant do any thing from his end. Airtel what is happening??? Is this the customer service you do ???? Really frustrating ...

I would like to bring this to your notice that i was provided Airtel 8 Mbps connection with wrong commitment. I was told that i would get 1000 local minutes free with Airtel 8 Mbps plan costing 1299/ month. After getting my first bill i found that i was billed for all the local calls i made. I raised this with Airtel customer care. I got 2 calls from Airtel escalation team but no solution was offered. The complaint number is 53293996.I am really frustrated with the fact that nobody is willing to help. Airtel is such a big brand and i don't except such a poor customer service from you guys. I proposed two solutions to Airtel escalation engineer: 1: Add 1000 minutes to my existing plan 2: Give me 25GB plan at Rs 1299/- He was not willing to take either of the solutions. Rather he was OK if request for termination. It was really surprising that you couldn't event attempt to retain your customer. I thought of bringing this to your notice to see if at all i can get any help. My Connection Details are mentioned below: Account No: [protected] Contact Number: [protected] I would appreciate your help in this matte and look forward for someone to contact me ASAP because it has already been 4 days since the time i logged complaint with Airtel guys. Thanks, Rahul

There is no response for my last complaint reference number PR[protected]. Please help me in this regard. Thanking you, Yours sincerely, M.Ashok

I got my phone recharged for Rs.100 on 06/02/2015 from airtel mobile website(m.airtel.in). As advertised on airtel website(http://www.airtel.in/mobilesite), this recharge should provide a bonus talktime of Rs.110 which is yet to be received. Ms. lavanya mistri, Senior Supervisor & Avinash Gupta, Floor Supervisor Airtel West Bengal customer care talked to me and informed that despite of the advertisement being live on airtel website they will not take any responsibility for it and the offer doesn't exist at all, very rudely and in an unwilling state to help. Mobile Number: [protected] Circle: West Bengal

sir, today at 12:21 pm received message from airtel that my data pack has been ended & from now on for using internet i will be charged from my account balance. At that time i realized that my data pack has been ended, now when i checked my balance, i found that balance of about ruppees 200 has been deducted from my account balance. I was very angry so i make a call to customer care & they were obviously trying to protect themselve. I asked them few questions: Firstly, that without having my permission why did u charged from my main account & you are informing me after more than 1 hour by sending message. Secondly, when we are in a call, when balance is nil u disconnect the call in the same way why u did not disconnect internet connection. Thirdly, when direction messages were received i did not saw them & i thought that they were coming because of lost of data connectivity so i did not saw them that also means i did not press OK on direction message so i did not confirmed to use internet connection. At that time they should stop my data connectivity but they did not do that. Please, Please, tell me what should i do...

Hi, I have requested for migrating my postpaid number [protected] to prepaid at Marathahalli Airtel relationship outlet – Bangalore - 560037 on 31/1/2015. Further to that, my postpaid connection got deactivated on 3/2/205 at 7 PM, but the prepaid SIM is not activated even after 48 hrs, and even spending many hours with customer care executives and sitting at Airtel Outlet. when I am contacting customer care, I am always receiving a reply as they are unable to see my details in their application hence they can’t activate my prepaid connection and I need to contact Airtel showroom, But when I am contacting Airtel Show room they are saying that they have already updated all the details, hence they can’t do anything further. Thanks, Shijith.CC

I've been using an Airtel 4G LTE connection for 2+ years now in B'lore. My CPE B592 device abruptly stopped working one day, and I was struggling to use it all of January 2015. I made multiple calls to the Airtel helpdesk, and would get stock replies that the problem is being looked into. Ultimately they sent some engineer over, and he said the device needs to be replaced. There is no other option. I agreed to this, and on the helpdesk's and an Airtel showrooom executive's recommendation, I bought a ZTE device. The freaking device did not work after multiple attempts. I lost the 2, 000 rupees I initially paid to purchase the earlier device, and this new device for which I paid 3, 000 rupees also looks like going down the drain. Because Airtel, being the scamsters they are, do not refund anything. They only know to suck the blood out of you. Now these people are singing a new tune, and telling me that there's some network issue at my location, and it's gonna take 90 days to have this sorted. I've terminated the connection, and asked them to get back to me once the problem is sorted, if at all. I'm writing here so any potential new customers stay away from this scam. This is like a siren call to avoid, avoid, avoid this company like the plague. I really hope there's more competition in this sector, and new players like Google enter the Indian market so arrogant companies like Airtel bite the dust and become history.

I recharged my pre paid mobile with Rs65/ on[protected] to get concessional talk time for 7 days as advised by your representative at sector 4 market, Dwarka, New Delhi for my mobile [protected] but the amount charged for calls are not on concessional rates.

Hi, I had changed the prepaid account to postpaid account last month. But the information regarding the account was wrongly commited to me. The details which I was commited were: Rs. 299 plan - 900 local/std calls, 500 mb 3g data and roaming incoming free. But now, the executives are denying from this plan. The details of the executive who sold me this plan are as below: Name - Raj Mobile # [protected] I want immediate action should be taken for my complaint and I am not going to pay the bill until the issue is resolved.

My name is Budhaditya Chatterjee. My Airtel mobile no is [protected]. I am very disgusted on airtel. Suddenly I have been notified via sms on 09th Jan, 2015 that “LAILA has been activated” on my mobile and 35/- rupees has been deducted for 7 days. I never want it. I stopped the service immediately by going to our nearest airtel customer service centre in behala. Then again next week I got the sms that "LAILA has been activated” and I went to the customer care and stopped the service and the same thing happened again next week. 3 times in 1 month and when I got the bill as my number is post paid Rs.105 has been added to my account. My question is why Airtel is doing this kind of cheating. I am completely disgusted on Airtel. Please change the bill and reissue the corrected one.

Hi, My name is Ashish Vishwakarma, working in cognizant gurgaon, haryana and I raised one request for changing my plan to rental free plan 99 rs. from my existing plan C36 CUG 349 and they committed that you can re-activate this plan later and now I want to reactivate this plan then customer care executive saying that we are unable to process your request as you are already activate myPlan. The bill plan can be changed only to myPlan, if myPlan is already activate. What is this ? Why don't you people told me earlier this ? This is the second issue I am facing while associated with Airtel which is frustrating . Its a very bad experience for Airtel team, I was associated with Airtel cause of better service provider but you people really sucks. Thanks, Ashish Vishwakarma [protected]
