Airtel Complaints & Reviews

1.5 years ago I ported from Airtel to Tata Docomo to try out the recently launched MNP service. But now tata docomo has discontinued its service in Bihar and only providing basic network with the help of 2g ICR. So I wanted to port out to another operator, but I got surprised that any retailer is asking fo 50₹-100₹ for porting to any operator. While max charge fixed by TRAI is 19₹ . There was a authorised Airtel Dealer (Balaji Telecom, marwari Bazar, Samastipur) nearby so I tried there thinking that they will charge fairly. But I got to know reality soon . They asked for 50₹. I complaint about this to Airtel Nodal officer, they promised us to take necessary option and told to go to ARC for porting at fair charge. But nearest ARC was 40km away from samastipur town area. I explained this to airtel nodal, then they told to Go to that dealer and get ported at 50 and we will return remaining amount as balance. This sounded convincing so I went there, But another surprise was waiting for him. After filling form they asked another 50₹. On asking reason they told me that you was an ex-Airtel costumer so you have to pay more as you are using MNP service 2nd time. Explained this to Nodal officer, now they too refused to help. And only option they guve is to go to ARC. This is not the matter of 50₹ or 100₹ . They is a serious case of cheating and no action being taken on it. And this is not the case of my city or airtel. I tried for 2-3 more operators and 2--3 more locations. Everywhere the case was same. I mailed about this to TRAI but no respond yet. I am attaching the copy of form which I took back after they demanded 100₹.

On 2nd July, I made online recharge of Internet Pack for my Airtel prepaid number [protected]. Till the time Internet pack is not available on handset, I called up customer service on 3rd july to know the reason, service representative said these internet packs are not valid for Blackberry and iphone devices, the fact i'm unaware of because i have been using BIS from almost last 2 years ( which is not mentioned anywhere on respective recharge page or else any visible portion of website).Then I spoke to manager and he promised me that he'll either compensate me with the amount i have spent or let me know about further developments. He also told me that he has lodged a complaint or posted some mail to authority and i'll get response in 4 hours( No acknowledgement mail or feedback form or complaint ref number was shared with me for further communication which is highly unprofessional). Till now i didn't get a call or mail regarding it. No updates on the same.Today i called up again and told the whole story helplessly and representative gave me a solution that he cant do anything on this. Worst experience i had with service provider in my 5 years usage. Kindly look into the matter or else i'll escalate this to a judicial body.. Amit mali, Mumbai- [protected]

Hi, I am really disappointed with Airedale services. Have given several calls to customer care and always get to hear from them that there is some technical issue so please call after 2 hours. Tired giving calls almost 20 times but still same reply. Seriously I don't know whom to call as they are not even serious to solve customer problem. My Outgoing calls are being blocked as I have not paid my bill. Reason behind that is the bill added with some fake calls and Internet usage. Its cost more than 2k(for 2 months) and as you can check my monthly usage bill amount does not exceeds 500 Rs. So just need response from your side like can i expect a call or should I have to take other serious action against you. Really fed up !!! Ph No -[protected]

I approached to airtel showroom in karnal, address: pns telecom, h-35, ambedkar chowk, karnal-132001 with address proof (Rashan card/ adhaar card)to update my address, but the airtel representative refused to provide me such service for the reasons best known to her.
Kindly intervene the matter to resolve the prolonged captioned issue since jan. 2014 for not issuing me paper bills since jan.2014

i am saranga satapathy(nabarangpur, odisha) and i have been using airtel Internet services on my mobile phone for the past 6 years.last 2 month me & my friends are not getting Internet, but network are OK, when we visit other place internet network are there available, we are complain to supervisor & S.e, but despite of complaining again and again no useful action is taken against the complaint and every time i get assurance for a resolution but nothing has changed . i am frustrated with the kind of service airtel is providing.if someone can suggest me a strict action against them please contact me at [protected]. i have checked Internet s my friend's mobile and he also same problem in last 2 month if i don't get any resolution sooner than i would have no option other than switching my network provider. the airtel tower is near nabarangpur bus stand (dist-nabarangpur) odisha

I have done recharge of rs. 145 (500mb 3g data + extra 500mb data 28 days) through airtel website on jun 18 01:31pm.

But i didn't get the extra 500mb data till now.

I have contacted the customer care, but they are telling that there was no offer there like that now.

The transaction id: 723637

Now i came to know that each and everytime whenever doing the recharge, we need to take the offer's screenshot for proof.

Please resolve it asap.

I am a post paid users of Airtel for last five years. I am facing network problem from last one and a half years. I so many times logged complaint for my problem but there is no response. many time i missed important calls, today on 02 july 2014 at12:10 PM I called 121, and want to register my complaint. but the exeucutive denied to register my complaint and told me to switch on to other network. I am very much hearse the way airtel respond. I am now thinking to switch on to other network because I think Airtel do not need valuable costumer. Rajiv Dhiman

To The Service provider, I have been called by one of your channel partner of name Viyania Business Solutions Pvt Ltd whose address details etc I will attach in form of the cash memo which they have provided me while taking money amount of Rs.300 for selling a postpaid connection saying that nowdays Airtel takes this amount to issue any postpaid connection. They told me this Rs. 300 will be refunded to be as it gets deducted from the billing amount for the 1st 3 months, which is also difficult for me to believe now after seeing all these fraud games. After taking this amount and documents they did not submit the docs to airtel ( As told many times by Airtel 121 and 198) and neither taking my calls to resolve the problem for last 4 days. So as a harrased customer should I conclude this as Airtel is also a crime and fraud partner along with this channel partner of yours? I guess both are equally responsible and action should be taken against both unless my problem is addressed and resolved.I am attaching the cash memo provided by them using which filing a case in consumer form will be easier but am willing to do an FIR to file a criminal case of Fraud done in the name of selling connection by airtel. Details of the offer given:- (Neither has been done as docs were submitted, the deal was offered just to take Rs.300 from me and not to serve me with the service promised in exchange of it) Existing connection - [protected](prepaid) to be converted into postpaid New Connection [protected] (Prepaid) to get activated Attachments area Preview attachment Money receipt.jpg Image Money receipt.jpg Open with Displaying Money receipt.jpg

Please Note That the Ref Service Reference Number : 17932368 dated 30-June-2014 @ 8:20am issue still not resolved and Airtel CFM team forcefully closed ticket. We therefore request you to reopen the said fault ticket and continue with the same Service Reference Number 17932368 dated 30-June-2014 @8:20AM. This type of fake service assurance is not expected from Bharti Airtel. If possible please escalate this issue to higher level.
