Airtel Complaints & Reviews

sir i had earlier contacted u regarding the portability of ma no. [protected] back into airtel from aircel. i had submitted the documents on 17 jan 2013. the no. has not ported yet. i enquired about the unusual delay at the franchisee and finally i was assured at the franchisee that the no. will port into airtel on 3rd march. being totally unsatisfied with the services provided by aircel i got an airtel sim from ma friend promising him to return it on 4th march. i placed ma aircel sim in ma wallet. to my misfortune ma cousin fell ill and we had to shift him to AIIMS. meanwhile one of our relatives passed away and in all this confusion i lost ma wallet in which i had kept the sim. today on 29th march i went to the franchisee once again but the careless person told me that the UPC code has expired. when i argued y he didnt deliver the documents in time he said the the delay was because of the shutdowns in J & K. the fact is that i submitted the documents on 17th jan and the unrest started on 9th feb. one more thing is that he told me that he had confirmed the date of activation of ma airtel sim, on 25th feb, when he told me that the sim is going to activate on 3rd march . now i cant get the code as ive lost the aircel sim. for ur info i'd tell u that when i ported it into aircel from airtel the UPC code validity used to be only 15 days then. and it took only 25 days for the whole process. nowadays the validity of the code is 30 days but the stupid airtel personnel and franchisee being careless did not forward the documents well in time. now i have almost lost ma number and am very worried as i've mentioned the no. everywhere, in university,nears and dears. ive qualified the written test of the jk bank relationship executive and have to appear for the interview now. im worried about if the bank ever intends to contact me how they can as this is the very no. which ive mentioned in ma written test application form. im totally depressed and ive decided that if not sorted within a few days i'll sue airtel into the consumer court on the charges of carelessness, leading to ma mental stress and inconvenience, Besides i'll publish the news in a couple of newspapers that will lead to loss of goodwill to airtel.... so better defend ur company goodwill. i[censored] wish to contact the franchisee the no. is [protected].

Dear sir/mam,
on 18th march, I applied for port request from vodafone to airtel. And I was said that my mobile number [protected] will be ported to airtel within a week or in 10days.
On 23rd noon, I received a sms that my number will be ported to airtel at midnight 12.30 .
But, today it has become 11th day and yet it is not ported. Please guide and help me to find solution for it, so that I don't wanna lose that number.

Respected sir,

On Nov 28th, I went to Airtels outlet located opp to abirami mall, puraisaiwalkam, Chennai to buy 3G Data card. Airtel executive told me that if you take unlimited post paid browsing plan (cost 950rs per month) for 3 months, you would be getting a 3g data card (dongle) for free.

So I paid 2850 rs and taken that 3months plan and got the post paid card with the no [protected] and also a data card .

After 3 months, that is , now I am getting a call from Airtel legal dept asking me to pay for the Data card. I have explained him but he seemed to be unaware of that plan.

So he asked me to talk to the Airtel executive who sold me this. I contacted him and he asked me to contact customer care. I called customer care, They asked me to talk to the billing dept.

And that's it, I am here now.

It looks no one seems to be responsible for this and redirecting me from one dept to another. As a service provider, It should be Airtels responsibility to talk to the concerned dept, not the customers responsibility.

I request for strict action to be taken against Airtel for the false claim and also for not being accountable.

Regards,
Fazil

Sir,
I am from Tamil Nadu & using airtel prepaid number (TN circle). But in my screen display, the network is has been shown VODAFONE IN/AIRTEL (In Andhra Pradesh). I have checked with another airtel sim in AP. But in that display, it appears AIRTEL. Manually i searched the available networks in my phone & my friend's phone. My friend's phone detects airtel signal whereas in my phone, AIRTE SIGNAL WAS NOT IN THE AVAILABLE NETWORKS LIST. I have interchanged the sim cards & tried again. Still no change. I surprised when i see this. My prepaid balance was deducted so many times without making outgoing calls & sending sms in roaming. I'd been charged for browsing though i had active GPRS in roaming. 121 customer care is not valid in roaming & i called for AP customer care centre. They told me to call TN customer care centre. I have reached TN service centre by +[protected] & I spoke with the customer service representatives for roaming charges in. I had been charged Rs 1.5/min. Airtel customer care was not helping when I go out of station.

Kindly clarify the following:
1. In airtel sim, why does the vodafone IN signal is crossing?
2. Why does the airtel sim is not getting airtel signal?
3. Why does the airtel signal was not appearing in the list of available networks?
4. How to reach TN customer service centre in roaming?

I am a regular prepaid customer of Airtel spending about Rs. 3000 per month on recharges and services. I use an IPhone 5. I always subscribe to the 3G service and usually take an unlimited plan. There is usually 3G available on my telephone number [protected]

On 17th March 2013 I activated a Rs. 655 unlimited plan which is valid for 30 days. This is confirmed by the company as can be seen in the trailing mails. The service worked well for two days and thereafter from 21st March there has been no 3G service on my number. Initially I thought that it was a location issue but there was no 3G in the whole of Pune!

Subsequent to making a complaint I keep getting the same standard email reply. I also get calls from the Customer service agents who ask canned irrelevant questions and give me the same standard replies even though the replies were given earlier with no results.

Lack of service for 7 days on a 30 day plan amounts to a deficiency of 25% and Airtel is not going to extend the service nor refund the advance charge!

Strangely, I received a call from +[protected] on 29th March inquiring about why there was a drop in my usage! Really!! Once again I got the same canned questions and replies and after reminding them that I use an IPhone they still provide settings and procedures for a normal handset!

I would like to point out that I had raised a complaint about lack of 3G services in Calangute Goa in December/January as well.

The company isn't taking this deficiency in service seriously and some action needs to be taken. Accepting and advance payment for a service and not delivering is cheating!

I have purchased a new mobile nokia Lumia 620 on 17.3.2013 with an offer from Airtel of 6gb 3g data free for 3 months. Still offer is not activated on my sim as i have called so many time for this issue on Airtel costumer care.
As per Airtel "Service request no CBNRA[protected] has been resolved" but it is not resolved yet.

kindly resolve the issue.

Sir/madam,
Im staying in hostel and working in MNC company in chennai. Very recently i took a postpaid connection with numbers [protected], [protected]. Sir the repesentative of airtel who took order for two postpaid connection is MR Iyaappan from airtel. Sir while taking connection this person from dint say anything about any deposit amount. Even while verification of my present hostel address they dint say anything about deposit amount. But, after we started using both postpaid connection we get a call from cusomer service airtel by saying that we need to pay deposit of 400Rs. As we stay in hostel address. But sir, the address proof i have given is MY PASSPORT xerox which is having my permanent address further they have also got my OFFICE ID. Even after this they giving a reason that they dont trust those live in hostel.

Sir, AIRTEL is saying that an indian passport xerox is not worth for taking mobile connection. I have also raised the complaint on the same with airtel customer care for cheating customer like this and not informing things properly earlier. Further, when i ask customer care they simply say that i should go and ask the person with whome i take mobile connection.

Sir, while taking connection they came to us and took connection and now they say we should go and ask the person. is it our duty to ask is there a deposit or their duty to inform that we have to pay deposit while we take connection. If they have told we would have informed no need such connection at all.

Now after we gave all our contacts our new number they are making us to do like this. now they saying if we wish we can disconnect our connection. My reference number on this complaint with airtel F[protected].

Please take up the issue and give us right direction.

Thanks

This is to inform you that few days ago i had requested for My Number Portability of my three numbers from Airtel to IDEA where after few days i got to know that MNP for all my three numbers : [protected], [protected] and [protected] has been rejected by Airtel without any valid reason.

When i called Airtel they informed me that the same can not be done because i am using a corporate plan and for MNP i have to change my connections to individual first which was not informed to me before or at the time i had received the call from the retention person of airtel and also when i had joined airtel from vodafone wherein i was also in a corporate plan i was not supposed to do the same.

I request you to look into the same as Airtel is not concerned about the issues i am facing with the poor services i am getting from them from the very first day.

Since last month (Feb 2013) I am having very poor mobile network connection in Bellandur, Green Glen layout area of Bangalore - 560103.
