Dear sir, I have Airtel prepaid connection and i recharge my connection with 3G plan (1 [protected]@ 251) on my number [protected] on dated 27/10/2014, but i can't access my 3G net i access only 2G but i paid for 3G plan .I also complaint to your custmer care many times but there is no solution even i register complaint for regarding this but my complaint confirmation reference number also not given by your side .Your executive told that i get an message after some time but i can't get any message regarding complaint number .There is no solution at all .Please resolve my problem as soon as possible.

Respected sir, I have submitted a complaint on my Airtel mobile number with reference no. 58478893 dated on 14 oct 2014 and reference no. 58548494 dated on 20 oct 2014. these complaint were regarding poor 2g GPRS services on 2g network in my home network on given address of : Trilok puri, GMS Road opposite Dron puri, Dehradun Uttarakhand. Since 15 days, my problem is still not solved. I have again made a 3rd complaint on 27 october 2014, but still my problem is not solved. I am a postpaid user and subcribed to 2g plan thus i am not able to get 3g signals according to you impartial rules which restrict a postpaid user to latch on 3g signals while it is allowed to prepaid user. This is also a problem of concern why this kind of discrimination is done with postpaid users only? Rules should be same for both postpaid and prepaid users. If your engineers are not able to solve slow 2g gprs problem on 2g signals in my area then kindly provide me 2g gprs on 3g signals which is running quite well in my area which i have checked on my brother 2g prepaid plan. kindly provide me either good 2g gprs speed on present 2g signal or allow us to latch on airtel 3g signals with capped speed as per your tarrif speeds. Thank you. Sanjay Negi

My Airtel Digital TV customer id is: [protected]. I booked a customer an additional HD settop box on 24th Oct'14 through Airtel the phone (12150) from my Airtel mobile. They told me that the cost is Rs.1815 and I get one month free subscription on by box (and subsequently Rs.250 per month). On 25th Oct'14 - they came and installed the box and the line man collected Rs.1815 and went away. I got a call subsequently from your customer care to confirm the amount and plan. I was told that I'll get one month free service on it. On 23rd Oct'14 - the balance in my account was Rs.320+ However today (28th Oct'14) I find that my airtel connection is disabled b'coz of 'no balance' in my account. I was SHOCKED to find out that you have deducted Rs.310 additional for "BOX NRC" from my account without any intimation or reason. I called up your customer care and registered complaints[protected]Name: Sujith) and 40814645. The executive told me that they'll listen to the recorded conversation of me booking the settop box and refund the money. Some one from finance called me back and said that he cannot refund the money at all. He told me that I was given wrong information - clearly Airtel's mistake. I argued with him on the fault on Airtel's part - but he was RUDE and kept saying that nothing can be done. After a while he just bluntly CUT THE CALL. Airtel has not only wrongfully took my money without any notification, they are also refusing to correct their mistake by providing me a refund and also they are behaving in a very rude manner with the customer. This is clearly a case of deficient service and fraud.

This is furtherance to my following mails chain to Airtel regarding bill discrepancy. There has not been any solution to the issue however my outgoing calls are barred which is causing additional inconvenience, harassment, and loses to me. Kindly look into the issue, Sharada Prasad [protected] ///////////////////////////////////// From: sharada prasad ([protected]@hotmail.com) Sent: 06 October 2014 16:30PM To: appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com (appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com); appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com (appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com) Dear Mr. Ronit, Thank you for the mail. However, I respectfully disagree with the following resolution regarding the bill discrepancy in my 07-AUG-2014 bill. I again reiterate that I can not pay any data usage charges on this number because this number is used only for mobile calls. Lastly, I am feeling harassed because of the mails and alerts from airtel, moreover my number porting request has been rejected all these all against the law of India. Please let me know my legitimate mobile call usage charges I will pay it happily. I can not pay any thing which is illegitimate.

I did not request any other services yet I have got this shocking bill, Further I have made several calls to Airtel regarding this but all in vain, as this number is for calls I do not use it for internet because I have a WiFi connection (7GB for Rs. 650 in a month) with me. So I can not pay for any data usage on airtel number because I have never requested for that. Kindly look into the bill and correct it, regards, sharada prasad ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////...⇄ From: sharada prasad ([protected]@hotmail.com) Sent: 16 August 2014 10:23AM To: [protected]@in.airtel.com ([protected]@in.airtel.com) Cc: [protected]@in.airtel.com ([protected]@in.airtel.com) Hi, My plan is for Rs. 249/m and my monthly bill averages between Rs 400 to Rs. 700 per month.

I have been trying desperatrely to get the portability code for my number [protected] from two days through my phone . But there is no response from your side. Why? Most of the time there is no net work of Airtel on my dual sim android phone and I am fed up of complaining. CAN YOU SMS MY PORTABILITY CODE/

Last month I had bought an Airtel SIM from Satish([protected]) with ‘Unlimited 950’ corporate 3G dongle plan. Yesterday[protected] morning at 5 AM, I received a message on my dongle that I have consumed 100% data and my speed will be reduced now, even though I had used only about 2.5 GB out of my 6 GB. I called up Airtel customer care ([protected]) around 12.50 PM and the customer care executive confirmed that he could see that I have consumed only 2613 MB data and he will correct the issue in half an hour. Interaction Id - [protected] But the issue was not resolved, I again called up Airtel customer care at 11 PM at night. After many calls and transfers to different people, a technical support officer from Amritsar told me that there is some mismatch in the backend for my user id and he raised a request for technical team (SR[protected]. By this time, my data usage was showing 3544MB. How did it reach 3544MB from 2613MB within a span of few hours, even without connecting the dongle to my laptop, I have no clue. I waited the night and expected resolution by morning, but the issues were still there. I called up Airtel customer care again to check status of my complaint and they told me that it would be addressed by 31st October. Why should it take so much time? Airtel reduces the speed the moment they THINK that a user has consumed all data but when it is confirmed that I have not consumed my free data till now, why can’t you restore normal speed instantly? Why do you need 4 days do restore the correct service? And my woes don’t end here. Today morning[protected], my data consumption is displayed as 4.5GB. How the hell did I consume almost 1 GB data over night on a 128kbps connection? Moreover, when I bought the SIM from Satish, he told me that under ‘Unlimited 950’ plan, I will get 6GB + unlimited in 3G after 6GB. It says so on the pamphlet too that I also have a copy of. Now, I am being told that after 6GB, the speed will be reduced to 128kbps. Airtel has given incorrect information to me. And even on 128kbps dongle speed, for video streaming and downloading the speed is only coming as 1-2 kbps. Why is that so? When I talked to Satish, he said on my face that their job is to sell the sim only and after that they are least bothered if the consumer gets proper service or not. So, in summary, my issues are – 1. Incorrect information given about plan while selling SIM. 2. Speed reduced even though I have not consumed whole of my free data. 3. Data usage is increasing even without connecting dongle to computer and even without proper speed. 4. At reduced speed, videos and downloads are not running at all as actual speed is 1-2 kbps I am fed up of airtel, request them to take their dongle back and refund my money.

Hi Team, I didn't receive any message when my data usage reached 1024 MB. You are suppose to message me while reaching the maximum data usage. Details: Received message on Saturday 04-OCT, that You have used approx 879.68MB of 1024 MB Later, I received the message after crossing the maximum limit. Monday 06-OCT: that you have used 1107.66MB of 1024 MB. Why there was more delay in sending the message alert that I have reached the 100% usage of data plan. You want to charge the customer, by not informing them. I won't pay for the extra usage money. Need this to be resolved ASAP. The bill has been generated for the Mobile connection and amount is 1450... :-( My Bill Plan is 275 + 155 (2G Internet) . Regards, Sreenivasula Reddy [protected]

Hi While surfing on web, I was asked to click on a fake link to move ahead. I clicked on that and I was automatically redirected to airtel.in homepage and 99 Rs were deducted from my Airtel main account for no reason. When I called Airtel customer servie they replied like I used some service so money was deducted but I havent used any of the service. I have already paid airtel for the data pack I am using and the only thing i did was clicked on the link which I was [censored]ely asked to clik on to mov ahead. This is a fraud by Airtel. Plea se help me take a serious action against this fraud committed by Airtel. Thanks A illegally looted Airtel customer.

Hi, I am using Airtel prepaid sim (+91-[protected]). At present I am using it in roaming. 2 days ago on 26 Oct 2014, I had around 140/- Rs. balanced in my account, but all of sudden whole amount deducted and I just got 1/- Rs. balanced. Then yesterday again I recharged for 200/- Rs and I could see the amount 201/- in the main balance. Now today it deducted again around 100/- from the account and current balance is 111.41/-. I am sure...
