Hi, I ordered a connection on 2/8/14 and paid Rs.1750 as an advance and the connection was not given as the broadband availability in my area was not there. It got cancelled on 28/8/14 and refund cheque was issued on same date. And cheque expiry date was mentioned as 29/11/14 and I received cheque on 27/11/14. It got expired before could en-cash it.

I again submitted my adhar card to Mr. Tushar in parel gallery airtel express, next to dominos pizza. Last week I got the call from Ms. Nitu from airtel, that she will update my address and its still not done. Today again customer service, lady said " shama kijiye aapko taklif hui, aapko 72 hrs me call ayega".

Dear Airtel Team, This is to inform you that I own a airtel number [protected], to convert [protected] from post paid to prepaid, I have been walking for your showroom since 5 days and no positive revert yet. And i have been wrongly highly charged for some consecutive months and they said they will waive off rs 250 in my rental for next 3 months bills and they will send a revised invoice but for 6 months none of the Airtel team gave me a feedback and i paid ending the penalty of Rs 300. And when i enquired about the feedback Mr.Purushoth from your Nungambakkam branch, has told me it will get converted in next 4 hours and the four houys didnt get from 30th December till 2 jan 2015 and when i asked why was this issue, he stated you need to ask Airtel head office and shouted as if i am a layman, a very very poor customer service i have experienced in my life time. The Bouncers in the bar is 1000 times polite than your so called customer service executives. Please let me know either you could convert that into prepaid or should i change to any other network. Regards Balaji [protected]

I am Dr Dhirendra singh and using services of airtel for more than 10 years. My mobile no is [protected] and I stay in Ghaziabad. I used to get my bill on my address but to save paper i got registered for E bill facility. I also got myself registered for 3 G/2G plan of airtel in INR 100 with 500mb of 3g and 500mb of 2g. Since I am a doctor with busy schedule and never cared to see my monthly bill, I thought if bill amount is less than INR1000 then it is routine and kept on paying. Suddenly my last month bill was more than INR1800 and I got suspicious and checked the E Bill, which cleared my apprehension that i was being charged for 3G services without getting any SMS for last one year as I was exceeding 500mb quota of 3 G . I have an I phone 5 which does not have facility of 2G so my plan of 500 mb free 2G is going waste for last one year. I get unwanted phone calls and sms for bill and many more services from Airtel but DID NOT GET A SINGLE SMS/PHONE CALL THAT YOUR FREE QOUTA OF 3 G IS OVER, , I TALKED TO CUSTOMER CARE and the politely noted my complaint, they politely said we can discount your bill with INR400. Failing to convince I asked for portability. To me this is fraudulent mean and I will pursue this matter with consumer protection till i get the solution. I also know Dr Ashok K Gupta resident of Ghaziabad mob no, [protected], who has similar complaint with Vodaphone I got this email id from TRAI and will follow it to the end. Warm wishes Dr Dhirendra Singh A19 sector 23 HIG Sanjay Nagar Ghaziabad [protected]

It has been a more than a month since I have been chasing for this now and I do not understand what will be the best way to articulate my problem so that you put an end to my agony. I have been using this ADSL line from you since last year and moved bases from one society to another. As a part of the society practice, I required an intercom facility on my line as well. I ardently followed your instruction and did as required. Now, after having done this, I have been waiting since last one month for you to get the landline and intercom facility to become available. I have made a change of plan as instructed by your agent (causing higher tariff with lower broadband speed) and also paid a cheque of Rs. 500 for the same, again as instructed by your agent. Though this cheque got encashed immediately, no work has been done so far despite numerous follow ups. What should have been a 5 minutes job, is creating so many hassles. For an old customer to airtel, this leaves no way but to end the story by switching to different service provider. Yours trulyUser of broadband id:[protected]_dsl

My company name is: Manoj P Kanuga & Assosicates I am the manager of this company. We had applied for a Airtel Corporate plan for 2 Numbers on 29th November 2014: Number 1: [protected] Number 2: [protected] Through the Airtel Agent (Name: Vivek). His Contact Number is [protected] in Baroda, Gujarat. First of all they had given us the plan of Rs. 299 in which we will get the following benefits: 1500 Local & National Minutes 1GB 2G Internet 250 Local & National SMS But actully it is not the given plan. As I can see in my bill that there is 399 Hero Rental plan is activated and also confirmed with Airtel customer care executive. They said there is no 299 plan is available in Airte. So We have been fraud by a wrong plan. Now, On 01st January 2015, we received our bill. And we saw that there is 5 extra numbers are also added in our account. We have only registered 2 numbers i.e. [protected] & [protected]. The following numbers are not of our company. [protected] [protected] [protected] [protected] [protected] We have not applied as well as we have not received those SIM Cards of above given numbers. So how & why this number is added into our company's name?. And most importantly if someone from them did a criminal activities from that numbers who will be the responsible?. And Who is liable to pay their bills?. We need proper resolution on this matter. I am continuously trying to call the Airtel Agent Vivek (Through whom we have registered on Airtel) since 20 days. But his number is out of reach ([protected]). I have also sent an email to [protected]@in.airtel.com regarding this matter, But still not found any reply from them. Please co-operate on this, and give us the proper resolution.

I filed a complaint on 24/12/2014, complain no: 52329738, due to frequent disconnections of internet, engineers came and fixed the problem and closed it. I faced the similar problem (frequent disconnection of internet) from 31/12/2014 and again filed a complaint, no. 52487772, on 01/01/2015. A person came, checked and told that the problem is in modem, so I would have to buy a new modem, and closed the complaint. There was no problem in modem a week back and suddenly it appeared, so funny!!! The problem is on and I checked that there is no problem in modem, so how the engineer said so? ..
