Dear sir

You are requested to reverse the amount of rs.172/- debited by you from my main mobile no. [protected] account balance whether i can not download any video / images or i can not surfing internet after 10.00 pm 05.08.14 to 10.00 am 06.08.14.

I am prepaid Airtel customer No[protected]Moved from Prepaid to Postpaid and then moved back to Prepaid due to the fraudulent billing process of Airtel).Yesterday (05/Aug/2014) had a balance of around Rs. 105 and around 200 MB of 3G balance. Made few skype calls and internet usage. This morning (06/Aug/2014) was shocked to see a balance of only Rs.35. With all other tensions happening in routine life, i spend time to call customer care and enquired about the reason for deduction, For which I was told by a customer care lady that the deduction happened because of over usage of Internet. In reply I asked even after having 20MB of Internet balance, how come the main balance was deducted. She in turn insisted that the calculation were all proper and when i was replying she no way bothered and cut the call. I again tried calling the customer care and this time another person took the call and when complained just told a sorry and said that the amount was wrongly deducted.I wonder if Airtel doesn't even have a software or an automation for all these deductions. Attached, sms screenshot from Airtel for amount credit. After all these fights, Airtel sends back the amount as if customer are Fools...Should a customer check each and every minute on what Airtel will deduct. This is the second time I am loding a complaint. First comp Ref - http://www.consumercomplaints.in/airtel-billing-wrong-calculation-c887876 -- Kasiviswanathan [protected]

Connection # [protected], latest complaint # 48377902. No resolution to numerous complaints. The engg visits and gives assurance that this time it will continue to work, but the same story remains. We only see a "Waiting Signal" on our TV and "Unable to connect" on the laptop. Placed the latest request for disconnection. Even that is not taken by the retention dept. same story give us one more chance and this time we will prove worth the bill you pay every month. Very low standards (rather non-existent) of service. I do not intend to keep paying for the non existent services provided. Ankit

I got a msg from company on 29 July that on recharge of Rs 49 I can get 150+150MB 3g net for validity of 28days. Offer valid till 4th Aug. I recharged on 3rd. I got 150+150MB 3g net but with validity of only 7 days. I've been trying to contact customer care but they are not helping me. They put me on hold, transfer my call to senior representatives which is not answered and I am also charged for the wait time. Finally the phone automatically gets disconnected.

I had purchased new Airtel sim card no. [protected] on 25th July 2014 from Sarkhej under scheme of 56/- balance and need to pay 20/-. I had submitted all required documents on 25th July 2014 and with in 24/48 hrs i had received verification call and card was also activated but till date after somany follow ups i had not received my balance of 56/- FRC. No dealer is telling that after 72 hours it is not possible to get FRC as it is company policy, Now is it my mistake ? Just because of miss communication gap between dealer and company why should customer suffers. Or might be i am full who is still running behind Airtel instead of choosing any other company card.

I Chintan Shah want to lodge a complaint against Bharti airtel. Initially I had been fooled by the salesmen for taking airtel dongle during which the scheme he showed was totally diffrent from the scheme I got.So knowing the truth about the plan I opted for disconnection of my number.The responsible authority of the airtel company called me up a told me not to dissconnect and opt for prepaid conversion of the same no. I agreed and paid all the pending dues of the bill and filled the perpaid form along with postpaid to prepaid conversion form and i was given the Prepaid SIM card on the very same day and had been told the number will automatically disconnect and prepaid sim card would get activated within 7days. But they didn't converted to my prepaid and rejected my Conversion form.After 10-12 I called them up and told the problem and the concerned person on phone its under process and would get converted very soon.I also after Some day i went to airtel gallery but the gallery authority told the server was down kindly come next day.I regularly posted my complaint on the customer care but didn't got any response and use to say that their senior would call in some time. After 2months the airtel department calls me up and asks me to pat the dues of 1600 or so. How can it be so, i posted complains regularly of my problem converted to prepaid by clearing all the dues. Its an irresponsible way of Airtel company of charging their customers. Chintan Shah

Hello Sir, My name is Roshan Jadhav, and my mob no is [protected] (airtel) I was travelling to Kashmir and Punjab in the month of may, before i called up customer care to confirm the roaming charges, they said their wont be any charges. In the month of june i have been charged with 400-500 roaming charges because of which i did not made the payment. I got an call from Miss Sheetal on 27 June 2014 from Collection agency situated in Malad from no [protected], She asked me to pay Rs 500 immediately and promises to refund rest amount. I did my payment but refund was not given and same has been charged in the next months bill with other charges. I called up today on Aug 5th, 2014 again at 12.15, and explained the scenario to her and she was very arrogant to me and disconnected my call 4-5 times without any intimation. I called up Airtel customer care on 101 wherein i had spoken with Mr Abhishek Gopale, he said we dont have authority to reverse those charges and currently no seniors are available on the floor, how airtel is not keeping backup of seniors on the floor during the day, he confirmed to arrange callback from his senior Priya. What should be done now????? do i have to discontinue with the all services of Airtel (mobile, datacard, DTH)... Please suggest. RegardsRoshan Jadhav

Dear Sir, I have purchased a Airtel prepaid SIM card bearing mobile No.[protected] on 31/07/2014 at Manipal University Jaipur in the name of my son. All the relevant documents dully submitted. As confirmed by customre care SIM must get activated within 48~72 hours. Your salesman accepted the Id proof and issued the SIM card and he told that the SIM will be activated within 2 days. But the number is not activated till today 05/08/2014after 6 days. In the meantime I contact salesman so many times and customer care but no activation of SIM till time. My son is staying in the hostel first time far from us. we are unable to contact him and all the time worried for him. Kindly look into the matter and take necessary action against the culprit. Customer should be dully compensated for the harresment faced. Thanks & Regards, Ashish Aggarwal, [protected]

I am a post paid customer under plan 199. For the past two months i was getting increased billing and came to know that my plan was shifted to 249 without my consent. I have been patronising airtel for more than a decade despite residing in different states. I would like to apprise me of the more b iling and suggest an ideal plan for std calls and internet usuage.

I have asked to activate only 2G at 70 kbps limited 2GB/month plan for corporate employees at 98 rupees. Still there is no action to activate this to me after so many mails.thats why im posting here i do have the existing plan 300mb 3g gprsfree, after 300mb 2g 100% free at 40kbps @98 i dont want this one. i want 2g only as i mentioned above.

My balance which was around Rs.170 till yesterday has been deducted completely from my Airtel prepaid number [protected] today for no reason.i even had internet balance and still have so there is no point it has been deducted for internet use.please see to my problem.

Frustrated with continuous harassment from AIRTEL. They are asking me to pay for a service I haven't used. I asked to put my 4G connection on safe custody in January 2014 and I kept getting bills till July 2014. In July after getting frustrated, I asked them to close my account, they closed it. But they are still expecting me to make the full payment through July 2014. Not sure what to do...

we have been using a number from past one and half years. Even 2 days before the deactivation of connection, we have recharged with 230/-. They sent me a message to re-submit my documents.I wanted to ask WHY? Why after 1 year there is a document failure. They just gave 2 days for the re-submission. When I called customer support, they said it is deactivated because of non-usage from long period. But there is no such day, where I did not make/not receive a call. Even I have been using mobile Internet daily. As the customer care support cannot answer my queries, they are hanging up the call. I even visited the nearest outlet, but no use. I am ready to re-submit the documents but they cannot restore my account as such( with balance and other offers).

When anyone tries to call me the call doesnt go.. No answer is also coming and the phone is not ringing only.. The problem is with indoor the call doesnt connect only.. 3 months became the problem is still continued and till now the you'll have not solve my problem.. Now i had gone to Airtel office there they are telling me "we cant do anything you call at customer care office" till now 20 times became they are telling me the same thing n they are very incorporative they doesn't know how to corporate with the customer.. Firstly in Goa no 1 takes the Airtel service or sim and those who take you'll don't give them service properly.. And we are post paid customer... When 1st time i had given the complaint that time many calls had come... They told me that they will do but still they didn't did... I had told them to give me discount on my bill but still they dint gave... If we don't pay the bill you'll call us hundred times to make payment of bill but you'll cant are able to solve my problem... if you'll still cant solve then tell me ill changed the sim of mine... Ill deactivate all my Airtel sim and move on to another sim... I am really tired of this... If you'll don't solve my problem ill move on to another sim or else ill file a complaint against your company... My mobile number [protected]...
