My complaint No is 6251408 and Harpreet (customer care executive ) said it will be solved by 9th Sep 2014. On 9th sept 2014, i didnot receive any call from airtel instead i called 10 times.

Hi, I have requested to disconnect my airtel data card number ([protected]) on june 28th of 2014. At that time airtel cus care representative suggested me to migrate in to prepaid. He asked me to submit photo proof and simcard to any airtel outlet in tamilnadu. Since, that time I am out of tamilnadu and I could not submit my proofs. Regarding this issue I have contacted customer care again on 25 the July 2014. They told while you are converting into prepaid, you get waive. The issue is every month they are generating the bill and asking to pay. Regarding this issue I sent couple of mails to 121 airtel cus care and today I spoke with customer care supervisor.They are saying, if it is active status you need to pay the rent. Regarding the issue everyday I am getting calls from collection departments. My concern is without using why should I pay the rent for the number.

Hi, Aitel Account no: [protected] Name : Mani Selvan G My set top box is keep on restarting. After raising a complaint, service engineer visited. After seeing it he said to replace the box with the charge of Rs.500/-. I did not understand this concept of replacing the Set Top Box. He has to repair the current box, thatswhy Rs.150/- is charged for his visit. If the box has to be replaced there should be an airtel office, where we can go and change a new piece. For already used piece I have to pay 500/- again if it goes bad, engineer will just say replace the box, again i have pay 500/-. Kindly repair the my own Set Top Box and charge accordingly. -Mani

I bought a duplicate sim for No. [protected] on 18th Aug 2014 from "Abi communications, DINDIGUL". The sim has not been activated, I contacted them after a week, they (ABI COMMUNICATIONS, DINDIGUL) said, We raised SR request for your number but the request has been rejected. So, they said we can give a try again. So, I bought a new duplicate sim again after a week, its the same response and suggested me to get to the NODAL OFFICE in Santhome, Chennai. So, I bought a new duplicate sim on 4th Sep 2014 in NODAL OFFICE, SANTHOME, CHENNAI, I again contacted them the NODAL OFFICE REPRESENTATIVE, they said it would get activated by 8th sep 2014 and the sim is not yet been activated and there's no response from them too. In between I contacted 121, Its too worst, they keep on disconnecting the calls after I explain the problem or else they give me a invalid reference Number, So, I couldn't reach your Nodal office by call too. Just give a response, whether I can get my number back or Airtel needs my number.
Its the worst response from AIRTEL. POOR SERVICE.
Just reply me that airtel needs back all the fancy numbers or can it resolve the problem?
PLEASE DON'T GIVE ME AN AUTOMATED EMAIL OR THE CALLBACK FOR EYEWASHING, BECAUSE I'M TIRED OF IT.

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE.

If NODAL OFFICE IN CHENNAI CANT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM, WHY ITS CALLED NODAL OFFICE, ITS JUST A SHOWROOM WITH NO PROCESSING, ONLY TIMEPASSING WITH CUSTOMERS SHOWROOM IN AC.

After complete - 1 year - right now I am not affording HD package value and want to down grade my services - but Airtel telling me that he change the policy and must need to select HD package only. My Customer ID: [protected] When Airtel is sending offer to existing customer to change the Normal to HD set top box - why they are not alerting like this type of condition? Why I must need to select HD package only? Could you please ask to reason to set this type of mandatory policy setting? Thanks Dipesh

Reference is made to my call to Customer care at 13:24 on 08 Sep 14 asking reasons for the deduction of Rs 8/- each from my balance against the 2 failed calls made to SBI Toll Free number [protected] at 13:21 Hrs on 8 Sep 14. Your Customer Service Executive was very discourtesies and the call was abruptly cut before hearing the customer full. Two calls were made to the later known inactive Toll Free Numbers of State Bank Of India and it was not matured. No sooner call ended SMS text messages was sent informing about the last call charges as Rs 8/- each. When contacted Customer Care their response was lukewarm and call was ultimately cut off. Requesting hereby to check my last call details and rectify the error so that refund may be credited the account. Also please ensure your executives who attends the customers to hear the complaint in full as it takes lot of time to come to them and when they find it’s beyond his or her capacity they should direct the customer to their Supervisor or any right person.

It’s a very old no. so I am facing lot of issue as its inactive and moreover i called several times in airtel customer care and visited the store twice but still there is no solution to the issue.

I bought a 4g airtel connection (id: [protected]) some time back and after the initial few days, it stopped working properly...every time we called the customer care for help they asked me to reset and try again..anyway used this seamless connection for 7-8 months...Didn't have a choice since I had paid 2k for it...and even when it wasnt working they charged 1200 per month in my plan..lately it stopped working altogether...Also somebody from airtel changed the password so I couldnt log into it...even then they billed me for that month...not only that Airtel calls you and disturbs about 4-5 times a day to ask for payment...if you have a problem and try calling them there is hardly any response and you have to keep waiting on hold for somebody to answer. Anyway I reset my password and was still facing the same issue. The internet seemed to work better on laptops but on android devices and iPads it hardly ever worked. Later some Airtel employee said that the router had a technical issue (4-antennae one) but they would not replace it with the new one but I would have to buy the new one again with Rs. 1500.. With such horrendous service, I stopped paying the monthly bill because to be honest I DID NOT HAVE INTERNET since it wasnt working. They started to send guys to my place to collect the money and harass family members (what kind of a working person stays at home on a weekday afternoon? obviously these airtel guys have very little common sense). Now they call me incessantly everyday. I had asked them to stop my connection but they wouldnt even do that. Kept asking me to clear the bill (for internet I had not used). Anyway I have decided to clear the bill and stop the connection. Thats the only way to stop these guys from pestering me everyday. I am only writing this here to make people aware of the problems you are going to face if you take up the 4G airtel offer...their servers have technical flaws and you should not expect seamless internet connection no matter how much you pay. I have shifted to MTS and their service and connection is way better. I[censored] want a new internet connection DO NOT TAKE AIRTEL 4G. You will regret it trust me. The best I could do was warn others. Good Day.

Hi, I had made a online recharge for Rs. 200/- on 4th Sept 2014. But the transaction was not processed & got a message saying amount will be refunded within 4 days. Now its more than 4 days still no refund been made. When checked with customer care executive they have no answer except transaction done per system. Now I need my money or recharge for the amount. Kindly do the needful immediately.

Hi All,

I had a very bad expereince today with AIRTEL... I have recharged with 197 3G pack valid for 28days... I tried to watch a 40min video in youtube and suddenly I got a notice saying that 90% of data out of 1 GB got finished. I was shocked to see this. I tried calling calling customer care and 6ruppes of mine got wasted and they were not interested in helping the customer at alll...they were talking saying you downloaded 228 MB at so and so time, 238 MB so and so time... they were talking like puppets with a minimum accent of English. I lost money 200 rupees and now I am very DISCOURAGED TO USE AIRTEL 3G SERVICES ON MY FONE. I AM SCARED TO BROWSE ANY WEBSITE AS I AM NOT SURE ON WHAT BASIS THEY R TELLING 1 GB DATA GOT OVER IN JUST 5-6 HOURS. I AM SO SAD, I LOST MY MONEY.. AIRTEL ... U WILL COME DOWN.. :(
