Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Some airtel representative called me and said there is postpaid plan and no deposit. Initially I have to pay Rs.300 which would be credited back to my account on a monthly basis for 3 months and the same would be deducted from my bill. Also the representative claimed that the plan was of Rs.300 inclusive of all taxes. But when I see the bill, I dont see any money deducted from my bill and moreover the taxes are added to it. I called up customer care they said they cant help me in this regard. I tried calling the representative, but that lady has diverted all calls and other number is invalid. The number is [protected].

Vide sms dt.22/09/2014 time 17.13.55 I was informed that hustler models has been activated charges 35- for 7 days and same message suggests to deactivate call or sms stop to 155223. Vide sms sent to 155223 by me on dt.22/09/2014 time 18.38.21, 18.39.34 and 19.39.43 return message was “invalid request”. While approaching to your executive at 121 on dt.22/09/2014 at 19.33 he was unable to clarify what this service stands for and replied that same is third party application activated through internet and he is unable to tell the time on internet use. It is strange on dt.22/09/2014 internet was not used from this no. however he deactivated the said service but shows his unwillingness/helplessness for refunding 35 rupees. In view of above please check and forward me the details of internet use time on dt.22/09/2014 by me. I think airtel is more interested in extracting money by using such fraud methods instead of customers. Surinder kumar [protected]

i have been not getting the network for airtel since last one day.And mobile internet is also not working properly since many days.i have complaint a lot of times but the customer care is not giving a proper solution to the problem.Infact they are not able to recinize the problem.

I have ordered (Order ID [protected] ) a LED TV(Samsung LED 32F5500) of worth 38k in Shop.Airtel.com on 10 Sep 2014. When i ordered it they didn't mention any delivery date but they mentioned it will be shipped by 19th September 2014. As they mentioned, they shipped it on 15th September with Shipment id IBDELMAH797456C9FE (Infibeam Logistics) and Order status changed to completed. Also i got a mail from airtel shop saying that it will be delivered to my address with in 7days. Then it lied with Infibeam with 4 days and then they send to safe express with tracking number 80347646 on September 19th. I was informed that the package will come to my address with 7-9 working days. But when I try to track the package with Safe express the status remain same since 19th. I have written to Airtel customer care regarding the order status and also i have written to safe express about my package delivery dates. No body responding. Neither airtel nor Safe Express is not giving any status update on my package. As per Airtel Shipment mail i am supposed get the Package on 22nd.. But no update yet. Please help me to get my money back or my TV as soon as possible. Due to the package state is uncertain, i couldn't take any decision on buying other TV locally here in electronic shops.

I have visited Canada during last month for 5-6 days. I had been getting messages for amount being charged when the phone was not being used. My outgoing facility has been suspended, when I gets a call from Airtel, I have been requesting them to send somebody to explain me the charges and I am ready to pay the rest of bill after removing the amount charged wrongly. NOBODY HAVE TURNED UP FOR LAST 10 DAYS. I am a regular payer since 8-10 years without default. Pardeep Sharma

My number is [protected]. I got micro sim on saturday (20 th Sep) and it got activated by same day at 5:30 PM. But i am unable to send message or use Internet. When i call to call to customer care they told me it will be activated in 48 hrs. I called 3 times and all told the same answer. Finally after 48 hrs i called to customer care and they say it will take 3 says. All my important transactions got struck because of this as i am getting bank sms to this number. I am totally upset with airtel for this. My sim is active already and i just changed from normal sim to micro sim. For this you people take 3 days to activate SMS. I hate Airtel.

Hi, We have corporate connection of Airtel and while asking for the procedure for cancellation and number portability, they have cancelled all the corporate numbers. After all emailing and follow ups, we still have not received proper solution. Also while calling to the customer care they always says "write an email to them" then what is the use of customer care number? My Corporate connection number is [protected].

Dear Sir, I got my international roaming activated on 4th of September.2014. I was to travel to China for 10 days. The 2nd day customer care executive confirmed that the facility has been activated. I had approximate balance of RS. 1935.00. When I reached China on 7th of September and tried to call the person for my booking conformation I received the feedback in Chinese and English that outgoing service to this number has been suspended. I got astonished. Anyway I somehow reached the hotel and activated myself on Wi Fi. For complete nine days I was moving through out the country on airports and trains but could never call from my no. I had to spend huge amount of currency on getting the local no and making calls. On 16th of September 2014 when I reached Shanghai Airport for my return all of a sudden my phone beeped and 3 different times about RS. 800.00 got deducted. My location can be checked VIZ Shanghai Airport area which is a totally free connected Wi Fi area. Through out my travel I travelled 4 times from different airports but nothing was deducted and on 16th of September the mentioned amount gets deducted. I would sincerely request the company to give me a proper reasons for why my calls got suspended for which I had to face so much of trouble besides the money I spent. On top of that my money gets deducted in a FREE WI FI CONNECTED area. Regards, Rajnish Sethi. [protected].

My mobile number is [protected], I am continuously facing issue of NO SIGNALS in my Airtel mobile connection in-side my house or office for last 6 or 7 months. I have logged complaint to Call center at 121 (SR no.[protected] registered on 16th Aug, 2014), I am getting same reply every time that I have to wait as There is no SITE installed in my area. I have also talked to Nodal officer, they are also saying this same answer. This answer can't be acceptable from a big company like Airtel. Currently, I am living in Sec-93, Noida. It is very well developed Urban area with Big population. How it can be possible that Company can ignore it. I am facing same issue in my office in Sec-62, Noida. Sec-62 is very well developed Business Area.

Hi, I have changed my SIM from old one to new one but same is not inserted in Cell phone SIM slot. My only mistake is i have not tried the same at Airtel Gallery and staff over there also not suggested to do the same Now what shall i do? I can't visit the Gallery on and off.Its far away from my residence secondly in Complaint No:198 also there is no option for customer care executive with whom we can talk direct. from Amrita Khuva [protected]

The customer service executives are totally inept in resolving customer complaints. They dont provide adequate information or help, They say that they are transferring the call to technical dept and disconnnect the call after some time. The waiting period is too long. The CCEs are a waste, good for nothing. Even if we select English option, we are connected to some uneducated & non technical people who dont know a damn. I m seriously thimking of changing from Airtel .

Hi, This is to bring in your notice that my father who is a retired govt official & senior citizen is using Airtel prepaid phone wide no [protected] since more then 7 years as of now. Surprisingly more then Rs800/- has been deducted from his prepaid amount on 23rd of Sep'14 just five days back with no reason. On calling Airtel customer care the executive not have responded in any supportive way after several calls finally he managed to take back a refund of Rs 200/-. He never used any other services like Internet etc which has been told by the Airtel executive that this money has been deducted for the use of Internet services & that too in mid night after 2pm. He is just using his phone for voice calls only & is having no knowledge how to use Internet at all. I want to make my request here to please make refund of the entire money back to his account. Hope to get a positive response from your side. Regards Shameek Pandey [protected]

Dear Madam/Sir, This is to inform you that i had applied for new post paid connection from Airtel on http://www.airtel.in/ on 30th August, for which INR 500 was paid online. After repeated reminders on mail at [protected]@in.airtel.com on 13th Sep, Airtel executive came to my residence, collected my signed & attested documents(Address proof, ID Proof & photograph) and handed over to me a blank Airtel sim card without any number/slip. I wrote to Airtel customer care but besides assuarance i haven't received any constructive till date. On 18th Sep i was informed by Aitel executive on phone that they are not able to track documents submitted by me (I am afraid if these documents be misused) Kindly guide me, now i am no more interested in getting this post paid connection but seek justice for mental harassment i have gone through for past 22 days. Best Regards Keshav K Sharma Sec 10, Panchkula, Haryana. Mob:[protected]
