Airtel Complaints & Reviews

I have read several complaints about Airtel's non-responsive, uttely non-user-friendly website. I too experienced it today. I visited 'My Airtel' for my last five transactions. Here is what the page read: Server Error Access Manager WebSEAL could not complete your request due to an unexpected error. Diagnostic Information Method: POST URL: /prepaidaccount/PSC_Web/RechargeL5DViewAction.action Error Code: 0x38cf04d3 Error Text: DPWWA1235E Could not read the response status line sent by a third-party server. Possible causes: non-spec HTTP headers, connection timeout, no data returned. This is not a problem with the WebSEAL server. Solution Provide your System Administrator with the above information to assist in troubleshooting the problem. [BACK BUTT I tried several times with the same result. Airtel should either get out of the Internet system or do something drastic to improve their website.

This is raju and my mobile number is [protected].airtel they itself activated a service called IPlayer for the charge of rs5 per day. I didn't raise any request for it then why. if they running out of money they could simply request for it but please not in this way.it should not happen to anyone again.

Hello, I am now in US on a work related visit and will be travelling back only in August. I had sent a email request on 17/04/2014 03:33:15 PM to Airtel service on [protected]@in.airtel.com for closing my Airtel Post paid mobile connection (+91-[protected]). They responded back saying the same has been forwarded to the concerned department. I was waiting for the reply but what i received was a new Bills on 29th April/May/June to pay monthly rental. I had cleared all my balance on 27/4/2014. I requested for an update on Apr 27 and May 30 and got this tracking number PO[protected]. It has been more than 2 months and all i get is a new bill every month.

Hello Airtel, Don't brag that you reach 94 cities in Bangalore when you CANNOT reach known prime locations within Bangalore.I see Airtel has provided fixed line BB connections to Nagendra Block, Bangalore-560050 and Girinagar, Bangalore-560085 but not to Muneshwara Block, Bangalore-560026 WHICH IS RIGHT IN BETWEEN ABOVE MENTIONED PLACES.I've been asking to provide connection for last 3 years.. Still no use.What is this? You have feasibility problems in is it?? Now I doubt your capabilities.

I have a mobile for 5 years in India and was paying my mobile bills from last 5 Years without fail. This so called Airtel have a good name, but it doesn't deserve the credibility for being such good company. I move to US few Months back and couldn't pay my bill for last 2 months due to some unavoidable situation. This company was happily adding the minimum payment and didn't realise to send a communication that any communication about the bill. If someone called on the mobile number to intimate the same, it will definitely be switched off as out of country. Now this company instead of sending a mail to me, they started calling people whom I called from my mobile, which can be my friends, relatives etc. Without my permission Airtel dont have the right to contact anyone whom I know and tell about airtel bill. Thats fine, some how this company got my number and called on my US number, now I have given them my cousin's India number so that they can contact his and get the bill paid. Again this company people called him, and the numbers he is talking also. IS AIRTEL HAVING ANY RIGHT TO CALL ANYONE IN THE WORLD AND TELL ABOUT MY PHONE BILL. WHEN I HAVE GIVEN A CONTACT TO CONNECTED THIS COMPANY CHEATED ME BY NOT FOLLOWING MY WORDS. All my family members using Airtel for last 10 years (atleast 10-15 numbers), Now I will make sure all of my family member numbers be cancelled as soon as possible. And when I comeback to India I will not use Airtel. Thanks Airtel for behaving in such a manner that my reputation is tarnished across my friends and relatives, I lost Credibility in your products and will never ever use your products. AIRTEL IS WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE. IF THERE IS NO RESPONSE ON THIS FROM AIRTEL, WILL GO TO THE NEXT LEVEL

i'm using airtel broadband and airtel increased there price from 10% to 15% in the monthly rental, This is not fair to the customers who are using airtel from a long time If the prices are increasing they should increase the price for the new users please look into this matter i was using 1299 per month and it increased to 1449.. Rs 150 change and this is alot

I have a Rs 175 corporate Postpaid monthly plan ([protected]). Under this plan, I am given free 100 local/national SMSs and 750 MB of 2G data. I got the plan around five months ago. My last four bill details are:- 1. Bill period: 05-Feb-2014 to 04-Mar-2014 --> Rs 446.22 2. Bill period: 05-Mar-2014 to 04-Apr-2014 --> Rs 529.77 3. Bill period: 05-Apr-2014 to 04-May-2014 --> Rs 3325.00 4. Bill period: 05-May-2014 to 04-Jun-2014 --> Rs 3177.34 Please pay attention to the last two bills. The bill shot from hundreds to thousands from March to April. When I enquired regarding my Apr-May bill by repeatedly calling 121, I was told that i had exceeded my data usage and this is the reason I got the bill of Rs3325.I was a little surprised that using 2G connection how can my data usage increase the limit.But still, I fully obliged and pay the bill. This month again I received a bill amount of 3177 Rs even though I was careful about not increasing my data limit. Upon calling 121, I was told a different story.I was told that 3G connection was activated on my mobile and I was charged 3G data usage the whole time. I had bought a mobile from snapdeal with which I got 1GB free G connection coupon.I had submitted a request to use that coupon in the month of march but Airtel has never stopped the service and never communicated about the start and stop of the 3G service.I am continuously being charged with the 3G data usage. If I have a 1gb 3G data coupon, shouldn't Airtel stop the service once the coupon is finished? Why I was not told about the 3G service activated on my mobile during the month of Apr-May.I could have stopped the service there and then? I repeatedly get the message that my account limit has been increased. Why I am not asked before increasing the limit of my bill? I am getting horrible service at 121 where each time It takes half an hour for the executive to understand my situation and then I get transferred to a senior executive. Then, I have to explain my situation all over again or in many cases the senior executive doesn't even pick up. This has happened to me at least 5-6 times in the last few days. Airtel has now blocked my outgoings and my mobile is practically useless. Could you Please waive off the data usage amount being charged on my mobile as obviously this is a mistake at Airtel side. Please resolve this as soon as possible.

Hi, I have requested a migration from prepaid to post paid connection for [protected] on 25th June 2014. The SLA which they told me was 3 days. On 26th June 2014, my prepaid connection balance was debited to 0 and I couldn't make any outgoing calls. On 27th June 2014, I had to call airtel customer care and they have send a representative for address verification (after I called them) for follow up. I again called them in the evening where I couldn't get an update from the customer care. On 27th June 2014 at 10:30 PM IST or so, I got a message from airtel that the services will be activated within 2 hours. On 28th June, when I tried to make a outgoing call, it transferred to verification call where the person after verifying all my details informed me that it will activated in 15 minutes. I called up airtel customer care after 4 hours and the representatives transferred me to escalation department where the escalation manager said he is not responsible for this and he is not bothered at all. The escalation manager informed that me that they don't know when the service will activated(?????) I would like to know who is responsible if an airtel escalation manager is not? Pathetic services for a customer who used prepaid service for 11 years and irresponsible customer care agents Interestingly, the person who informed me of the corporate policy is not answering the calls at all.

Hi, On 17th June, 2014 I spoke with a sales rep for a new connection. He checked on feasibility and confirmed that the installation can be done within 2 days. On 19th June, another person (Mob - [protected]) confirmed the same and collected the application (No. TBLR 6834261) and a cheque worth Rs 500. He books this deal the same day. Later on the same day, he informs me that it will take a week and asked me to contact Prashant, his area manager (Mob - [protected]). Prashant committed that the installation will be completed by 24th June. This did not happen and he did not take my calls thereafter. On 25th, I managed to find your customer service number and registered a complaint (No.[protected]. About 2 hours later, I get a call back where your customer service rep informs me that "as per records the installation has been completed". When I clearly told him that no one has even contacted me for the installation, he changed the status and committed to have this "installed within 24 hours". On 26th, I did not hear from anyone. On 27th, I called again, and although at first was given some excuse, later the customer care rep told me that I will NOT get connection. When I asked why I was lied to till now and why so far no one has contacted me on this, he apologized and told me that his manager will call back the same day. I never got any call ! On 29th, when I called to follow up, a rep told me that Airtel will not communicate that installation cannot be done until after feasibility is confirmed. What?? In the end, their sales rep gets a deal booked, Airtel gets a cheque and I have zero communication from Airtel about my money or absence of connection.

This is to inform you that I, Santu Mukherjee, have purchased an Airtel 4G LTE connection 3-4 months ago. At the time of selling the representative of the said company ensured me that I will receive strong signal everywhere in my house but till date I could not use the 4G modem properly due to network being not reachable.I have already lodged 3-4 complaints but haven't received any response except network survey from Airtel. Thanks & Regards, Santu Mukherjee M--[protected] Kolkata.

Hello Airtel guys, This is the message I receive when I try to access 'Last 5 transcations' since 8am today. This is outrageous. Could yout please DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT????

I used my Airtel Prepaid Number from last more than 3 years. Yesterday, they stopped my outgoing calls diretcly without any notifications. When i asked to customer care that time they told me because of Tele-verification process outgoing calls restricted. After so many years how come its possible this reason and also this thing happened then its their duty to call me directly for tele-verification at any time. Directly stop all facilities it's not the right way. Please help out with the action against it. Thanks

I filed the complaint Number OT[protected]. It has been suo moto closed at customer care level without informing me the outcome. In view of substandard service I was forced to close the connection and gave the details of the person who handled it. The complaint has been closed without telling me who will refund the cost of the dongle which was one of the issues raised in the complaint. Now further complaints cannot be filed as the complaints page continues to reject submission of the complaing repeatedly giving the message that the authentication code in the black box is incorrect. I have taken screen shots to show how Airtel harass customers and waste their time..

My airtel prepaid mobile number +91-[protected] has been out of service for about 2 months. I am baffled at this sudden reckless folding of services, unduly and inordinately. My number was on roaming (Stationed at Rajasthan since December 2013) but it was under active usage. I recharged it regularly and made/received calls and SMS through it. My details are given below: Registered No. - +91-[protected] Registered Name - Sandeep Nammi E-Mail - [protected]@gmail.com Area Circle - Delhi NCR (Rajendra Nagar) Alternate Contact No. - +91-[protected] I have been unable to use it for more than 2 months now, Why this number was hibernated must be explained to me. The number should be made active forthwith without any delay and with recompense of balance therein.
