Address: Pune, Maharashtra

This is complaint with respect to Fraud of Security Deposit amount, False
information and pathetic service provided by both Airtel Gallery as well as 121
Customer Care service.

Against:
Airtel Gallery:
TELESOFT, Aditya Nakoda Enclave, Shop No. 11, Ground Floor,
Opp. Bigbazar, Sinhagad Road, Pune 411 030
Contact Person: Rohit

Total "8" Accounts sufferring.

Incident:
I have been PREPAID Airtel user for last 8 years along with my family.
In month of February 2013, I got a call from above gallery from one of the
lady, who provided me information about new plan converting prepaid to
postpaid. Then two Airtel authorized agents visited our house.

The information she provided and the agents provided is as follows:
1. CUG Family plan for all 5 old prepaid numbers + 3 new postpaid numbers in my
family with unlimited free calling within the group; and few extra offers as
100 SMS free, airtel to airtel 10 paisa per minute, 149 minutes calling free
2. Plan of INR149/- per month per number
3. Security Deposit of INR400 per number
4. Security Deposit is "Refundable" after 3 months of service usage
Also this is also conveyed by Customer Care, Welcome call as well.

I trusted them and paid INR400 * 8 = INR3200/- with hope that above mentioned
plan will be activated;

NOW, this is what happened in reality:
1. NO CUG Plan activated
2. Plan of INR249/- is activated; instead of INR149/- where GPRS is added,
which is never asked for and is useless.
3. few VAS got activated without notice
4. Security Deposit of only INR200 got sent to Airtel as per customer care guy
told.

Contacted Customer Care for 21 times (each time got different answers and false
promises, and every time there was no past records about my follow ups,
mismatch between info given by Airtel Gallery and Customer Care),
visited Airtel Gallery 13 times (Each time wrong information, false promises,
mismatch between info given by Airtel Gallery and Customer Care, systems not
working, security deposits got up wrong by Customer Care, Spelling Mistakes etc
etc]

Its been more than 3 months of by now, still not a single concern or request
got resolved. The bills are still getting generated on wrong plan.
Getting calls to pay bills. Service has been stopped on few numbers.

This is really pathetic and ridiculous and highly irresponsible and
unacceptable behavior.
Unfortunately, it is "Airtel" brand, which is going to be degraded.

It was worst experience dealing with Airtel.

    Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

    Hi,

    Sir my name is Sailesh and Airtel is my mobile network. Today[protected] at 8.32 AM, an amount of Rs 85 was deducted from my account saying that i have downloaded MP3FULSONG from Airtel. Actually i did not download any songs or anything from Airtel. Even i could not find any thing like that in my download history as well and in my download folder as well.

    Even last amount i faced this issue but i ignored it since it was small amount. But these Airtel people are doing it often and this time they directly deducted rs 85 which is not at all acceptable.

    As soon as i received message saying that an amount of rs 85 was deducted from my acc for download, i called customer care but they are not listening to what we are telling..

    This is ridiculous and if my amount is not refunded i would go option like choosing another network through number portability option .

    I want to file a complaint on Airtel on this. Please do assist me.

    My Mobile number is [protected].

    Regards,

      Hi,

      I have an Airtel Sim card which i am using since 4years now but from last 2 years when i started working in Pune my network has gone drastically down.
      I don't get network connection even when i am at home. So, Basically having a cell phone is of no use as my parents and friends can never reach me.
      Thanks to the worse customer service of Airtel and there undependable network connection.
      i finally requested to port out from Airtel to Idea for better connectivity but Airtel rejected my requested again and again(5 times almost)
      Now, my point is i live here in Pune (840 kms) far from my home(Nagpur) and my parents/Friends cannot contact me and neither can i most of the time.
      So, if an unfortunate event happen to me i would be not reachable(As my cell phone does not have network)

      Just one question Airtel- Rejecting forms of customers without serving the service is it gonna make your company bigger and stronger or just some roadside beggar who is crying for some money.

      And worse is your customer service.
      i get call from your CSR everyday. and i explain them everyday the same thing.
      Your entire CSR team(Agents, Managers, Sr. manager, Delivery head, VP, Everybody associated with it are just bunch of losers who are crying for customers to stay without really doing anything are respecting the fact that they really "PAY' you to serve them.


      Now i have lost it!
      I want to port out now from Airtel.
      I DONT WANT AIRTEL SERVICE ANYMORE NOR ANY RESOLUTION FOR MY NETWORK PROBLEM- I WANT TO PORT OUT(I GUESS THIS IS CLEAR NOW)
      if i don't get port out from airtel i will submit this reviews all over the Internet!
      making you new connection go down.

      Porting id # AZ574294

      You guys are still bunch of losers.

      AirTel — Porting rejected

      Applied for Portout and airtel rejects saying they cannot port out because of company owned account. what differance does it make if it is company owned account when the company itself is requesting for the porting

      AIRTEL CONNECTION CONNECTION — USE LESS AIRTEL REJECT MY PORT OUT REQUEST

      Airtel has rejected my port out request due to some legal reason. May i know what is that legal reason. I'm a prepaid customer and does not have any contract with airtel as well....

      I am already very frust with airtel as they don't give a proper coverage in my residence they deduct my balance for no reason. I don't have time to fight with there useless staff who only has standard answers.

      Now when I'm porting out they rejecting my request with this useless reason.

      I don't want answer to this. I want my porting to be done immediately asap.

      Or stop this useless MNP thing. It is just a fooling around and nothing else....
      my mobile number is [protected] and my porting code is-AZ647528

        Airtel Mobile Phone — Fraud Bills after discontinuing the services

        My Daughter had a Air tel connection [protected] which she surrendered by talking from the same phone to Airtel help desk on 22, Aug 2009 . After that phone was not operative and message was registration faied so she was sure the disconnection has happened.
        Now she is being called and harressed that she has unpaid bill of Rs 22000 for calls made to Europe and a court case will be done in some other city and you will face trouble otherwise pay this amount.
        Same thing happend with couple of my friend who thought it is better to pay as the amounts were small.Company was Airtel again and again . They are also going to put the complain with details now .
        I suggest airtel must find out about this fraud and extorsions that is going on in their company.

        Other readers pl compaint to consumer courts and on this forum if you have faced this problem . We as citizens must take actions to force companies to stop fraudulant practices and harassment of customers.

When i make a call to some one 90 paisa deducted in my account. Previously the offer provided as AtoA 10 paisa Ato other mobiles 30 paise.

Nobody came to install even after calling to sales people, customer services and even nodal officer airtel digital tv, chandigarh. Three days later i sent a request for cancellation of the dth purchase and refund. I was assured that refund will come to account in next 7 days. Now its been over 10 days and i have sent many reminder to customer services, nodal officer and made several calls to customer services and wasted lot of money and time. But they dont seem to interested in refunding my money, neither they are replying to my mails.

            PLease help Me to teach these people a lesson and get my refund of 2264/-

              I have received a sms from airtel on my airtel number [protected] on 22nd April that I will get a talktime of Rs.220 on doing a recharge of Rs.200. So I have done a recharge of Rs.200 on my airtel number [protected] on 23rd April. But I got only Rs.175 as talktime. I don't know the reason. I feel cheated. Please look into the matter.

                  Address: Gautam Buddha Nagar, Uttar Pradesh

                  Mr. Dharamveer Singh (Chamber 35, Westend Wing Tis Hazari Court Delhi 110054) has issued a Legal Notice under section 403, 405, 406, read with section 420 of the IPC. I am sure Mr Dharamveer Singh has not verified the issues before sending the Legal Notice. We have been facing issues with Airtel Customer Service for a long time, for which I have always registered complaints on Airtel hotline number ([protected]).

                  The connection in question is for fixed line number [protected] and account number[protected]. Due to poor and rude customer service we had requested closure of connection in December, 2012. We were promised plan change in sometime early September-2012 or October-2012. The offered plan was not given on the account. Repeated requests and complaints at Airtel Customer Service were of no help. A request for account closure was made in December’2012. Thereafter, we started receiving several calls stating that we do not close the connection. Subsequently, Airtel Customer service REPETEADLY offered that we keep the connection for next 3 months without any rental. We still requested closure.

                  We have been always communicated that Airtel postpaid services have been charged on pro rata basis. A cheque for last payment was made on 5/1/2013. This was returned as Alteration in payees. Subsequently a cheque payment was made on 18/1/2013 for the amount of Rs.1570 vide Cheque no 383858 from Oriental bank of Commerce and a receipt for same was issued(receipt no. 8163432). Thereafter, no statements were received from Airtel and we have not availed any of Airtel’s services.

                  Now we have received a legal notice. I am at loss to understand the reason. This definitely is harassment of a common man by a MNC to fleece us of money, eventhough we have made the payment as communicated by Airtel.

                  Please put a stop to this harassment and resolve the issue

                  AirTel — Sending Legal Notice for a closed account

                  I had a airtel connection and it was closed in August. I have the receipt from Airtel with the final closing payment and their confirmation that the account has been closed with no outstanding dues.

                  However, I just received a Legal notice from Airtel mentioning that there are over 2000 dues in the account. Along with this, I had received few rude calls from airtel few weeks back on the outstanding. On which I told that I have the receipt of account closure and they can come to my home to check the receipt.

                  What are the options I have. This experience has totally frustated me and I feel harassed.

                  Airtel — Layer Notice Issued from Airtel

                  Hi,

                  This is Prasanna, my issues is regarding alleged notice sent by Airtel even after I made all the payment and requested for migration.
                  I had taken a post paid sim from Airtel as there were lot of description found in bill I really fed up and requested for migration to prepaid connection as I was desperately needed that number, I paid all the amount till the day I applied (Saturday) for migration (I have all the bills). Finally those outlet guys said it will get migrated in 24 hrs and gave a new sim and said put this sim when you get message saying Invalid simm, I agreed and left the outlet. I was waiting for 24hrs and I did not get message Invalid sim as that was sunday I thought it might take one more day like that but I did not get message saying Invalid SIM i.e number was not migrated to prepaid. As I was @ chennai by that time I could not reach out to outlet as well as I tried calling to Airtel customer care but they said we have not received any request you just confirm with outlet guys. It was really bothered me so I went to Airtel outlet after 1 week as I was waiting for week end, they said I requested sir but it is not processed I don't know why and asked me to clear the amount for hole week and then they will request once again. I was really bothered and said Se it was not mistake from my side and still you guys are asking me to pay the bill which is really not a problem from my side and I will not pay the bill and left the outlet. But that no was active until 1 or more month till the delay payment date and disconnected the connection, I have not done anything else but just before 2 weeks they issued the layer notice to my communication address given. So Please tell me what to do now?

                  Thanks,
                  Prasanna.

                  Airtel — Harassment on connection closure request

                  I placed a request to close my connection on 12th May, 2011. Till now they haven't closed my connection and kept on sending bills regularly. They called atleast a million times even during odd hours in the night. I even complained the nodal office of Andhra Pradesh and got a email reply but things even got worse. One lady called Ankita, part of Airtel legal department called today and threatened us to pay. I clearly said that I'm ready to pay whatever I actually need to pay. She said that she would send an appropriate bill and I agreed to pay if its correct bill. But she called us couple of times but didn't send any email and threatening us to pay something. I said that I didn't need to pay some amount but I'll pay the correct amount. She is using very indecent language and shouted like anything. This is very unfortunate and I didn't expect this from Airtel.

                  I've been communicating to the Airtel Nodal officer, AP. I also forwarded the same to Sunil.[protected]@airtel.in.
                  I hope it reaches Sunil this time.

                  I believe atleast after seeing this complaint some action would be taken from Airtel.
                  Here are my account details:

                  Landline number :[protected]
                  SR # 604005 - for cancellation request
                  Complaint reference Number with Nodal officer #49051346
                  Hi Rakesh,
                  Thanks for working on this complaint. I'd taken this connection in my wife's name and she has been tracking complaints with grievance system in Airtel itself. We got a reply from Appellate and her email states that our connection was closed on 23rd June we need to pay the rental till that time.

                  IT'S REALLY NOT FAIR AT ALL.

                  WE raised the close request and surrendered the equipments to Airtel on 12th May. Within 48 Hrs or something is what the executive said to process the request. Now if Airtel closes my connection after
                  43 days and ask us to pay for rental till that time is really unfair from Airtel side.

                  I still believe Airtel that I'd get justice from Airtel and I'd be charged only for the period from Mar 26th 2011 to May 12th 2011. I always want to be honest and I expect the same from Airtel too.

                  This is what the reply we'd got from Appellate - AP :


                  Warm greetings from airtel Telemedia Services.

                  With reference to your e-mail dated 28-Jul-2011, you have expressed concern regarding the cancellation and non-receipt of the bill copies of your airtel fixed-line 11917894.

                  With further reference to your below e-mail, this is to inform you that your airtel connection has been disconnected on 23-Jun-2011.

However, your request for the soft bill copies has been forwarded to the relevant team and would be sent to your email id at the earliest.

                  We thank you for having chosen airtel services and we regret to lose a valuable customer.

                  Hi Rakesh,
                  I don't see any action being taken on this regard. Today again some one called up and asked us to pay some amount. We had informed that lady that we'd raised a complaint and waiting on that.

                  But the language she used... that is un acceptable. Its going beyond the limits, which obviously portraits different picture on Airtel.
                  Any updates?
                  I've also sent following email to [protected]@in.airtel.com:
                  Hi,
                  I've not seen any action taken on my request so far. Could you please look into this issue?
                  I keep getting calls from unknown persons claiming that they are from Airtel legal department and they are using very indecent language. I've clearly mentioned to you as well as them that I'm ready to pay whatever is the actual due. I already informed you as well as appellate AP. But nothing is happening from Airtel side. Even after proving that the mistake is from Airtel, why am I not getting the real bills. People ask me to pay just Rs.500 and close it when I'm ready to pay around Rs.800/900 but with the correct bill.
                  I don't really understand whats happening.


                  Please take necessary action.

                  Thanks

                      Dear Sir
                      I had never subscribed for Astrology service but you are charged me for this service.
                      It had also happened for last two or three times. So, please stop (deactivate )this service to my mobile No -[protected] with immediate effect. Also no any service provide in future to me on this number.

                      AirTel — Services auto-activated

                      I have Airtel connection with #[protected]. I was auto-subscribed for some service by name "ghar aaya jyotishya" and I have been charged Rs2/per day. I have never activated this service. After calling Customer Service, they deactivated the service and but did not register the complaint for auto-subscribing the service. I was charged the amount of Rs42(2Rs/day for 21days). The response from the customer centre was really disappointing.
                      The customers are being cheated this way by auto subscribing such wasteful services.

                        I have recharged my airtel nomber with discounted tariff recharge of Rs. 97 having validity for 2 months. The benefit of the same is mentioned as 1.2p/2sec all India for 2 months (1st min of the day to be charged at 2p/sec) (IT IS COPY AND PASTED FROM THERE WEBSITE). so it clearly tells first call of the day would be charged Rs. 1.20 per minute and later 1.2 Paise for 2 seconds.
                        But as i was using it i observed on calling land line i was charged additional and i was ending up paying 2.5 Paise/ 2 Sec. When i called customer care they said it is 2.5 paise/2seconds for land line.
                        This is misleading. they have to update the website or give me the benefit. I wouldn't have recharged for discounted tariff had i known it previously.

                          I am an Airtel prepaid mobile cutomer, I hve received the message from airtel (AD - 54321) that Thanks for using filmybuzz subscription service from airtel.you have been charged Rs.3.Join gamclub and given a link also. Instantly they have deducted Rs.3/- from my main balance also. I have not used any service and not activated any package , but why i have been charged for 3 Rs, i don't have any idea for it. I given a call to Airtel complaint desk 198 for the clarification, even they don't have any details on it and raised a complaint for this. But how come they can deduct my banalance without using it any service.
                          My number is [protected].

                              Iwant to cancel it because The airtel sim ([protected]) for which i applied enternet connection, is not from my name. it is my boss's sim. he gives it to me for my personal use. he also has all information about my complaint.
                              THANK YOU

                              AirTel — DISCONNECT MY NUMBER

                              I have airtel prepaid no is [protected]. I Have a purchase 4-5 months ago. But without any reason they permanent disconnect my number I will say why u disconnect this number They told us Ur sim is expire dated 12/10/2009. But 22/02/2010 I will talk with my Friend this number. I also mention my Friend number is [protected].

                              Pls help us

                              Airtel — Deactivated number, Customer studying in U.S

                              I have been using my airtel number since 2002. i also submitted the documents 2 times when they deactivated my number. Now, I am studying in the U.S. and airtel has deactivated my number. WHERE IN THE TERMS AND DETAILS FORM (WHERE THEY TOOK MY SIGN), IS IT MENTIONED THAT IF A PERSON DOES NOT USE HIS NUMBER FOR 3 MONTHS, THEY WILL DEACTIVATE IT?? or where they have mentioned about something like this can happen in future?
                              I am a proud Indian citizen and I understand the security issues as well. But for a person who is not in the country, is this like a torture. I have so many contactsconnected with this number, that i cannot afford to lose it. If i come next year, they say that my number wil get canceled. What is this? (If the Indian law is so particular about the CONTRACTS, then i want to know that where have i signed something like this??)
                              i have no option, i have to spent 85000 rupees, buy an indian ticket now, come to india and get my number back. IS THAT YOU PEOPLE TREAT SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN AN ACTIVE CUSTOMER, BUT IS OUT OF COUNTRY?
                              ( IF THEY SAY THAT SOME RELATIVE CAN GET THE NUMBER ACTIVATED, THEN ISN'T THAT A CLAUSE SOMETHING LIKE INVASION OF PRIVACY? )
                              Airtel is taking its customers for a ride.They need some threatening.If we just agree to whatever they say, they will start dancing on our head soon.My friend who stays in mumbai had been posted to mysore by her company for about 2 months.And when she got back to Mumbai her balance dropped from Rs 600 flat to Rs0.Having contacted them they say the documents were not submitted and the money cannot be refunded.
                              This is clear fraud.

                                Dear Sir,

                                My airtel number is [protected], The number is Deactivate on 03/04/2013 as per airtel customer care, But i was not aware of that my number was deactivate and i recharge may number on 09/04/2013 and my balance reached INR 737.14. After 4-5 day of this recharge my number got deactivated.

                                I contact to customer care and they are telling that you have not make any calls last 90 days and i was agreed with him but i am recharging my mobile during these days many time so that my number should not close.

                                According to airtel Rule you have to make call/video call OR you have to recharge your number, I didn't make call as their services is not available in (Dubai) UAE but i have recharge my number many time but still they deactivate my number.

                                Sir, I please want to take strong action against them.

                                For your information this was happening second time with me.

                                  Address: Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh

                                  We used Airtel Broadband Service from 2009 till 5-Nov-2012. The main reason for disconnection was improper service.
                                  We asked Airtel to change connection name from my sister's name to my name, when we called Airtel support executives, they asked us to go near by airtel shop and register complaint.

                                  My sister and myself we both went Madhapur-Hyderbad Aritel shop nearly 4 times, finally got frustrated and asked them to take complaint. They said they don't have complaint registration forms and asked us to go Ameerpet Airtel shop. we refused to go there and asked them to take complaint. Finally they gave one pick form and asked to fill my details along with my sister's details and address proofs and letters from both o[censored]s. After registration, they did not give any ticket registration number, when we asked them to give ticket number, they said they will register later and send us to our mailid and mobile number. when we insisted to give ticket number, they gave pick slip copy as ticket#

                                  Later we did not get actual ticket number neither to our mail ids nor mobile number,.
                                  the complaint we registered was to change connection name to my name, but They sent next month bill on my sister's name, when we called airtel, they said there was no complaint on connection name change

                                  then we again sent mail to appellate.[protected]@in.airtel.com, nodal.[protected]@in.airtel.com, along with pink slip form which they gave us as ticket# as attachment, they registered complaint and changed bill name to my name, but when i asked to change that month bill to my name, they disagreed, so, finally i sent mail for disconnection, after few telephone communication , they disconnected.

                                  Next month i got call from Airtel to pay balance amount, my bill amount was some thing around 2500 change, i said i'll clear total amount, if they were ready to change last month bill name to my name, they did not agreed.

                                  Later again after 1 month they called and asked me to pay 1500 , they said 1500 Rs was enough, no need to pay total amount, since i used Airtel intrenet on that month, i said i was ready to pay 1500 .
                                  Finally,some airtel executive came home and collected 1500 cash plus landline equipment and gave some receipt.

                                  Later 5 months, Now they are calling and saying they issued some legal notice for not paying 1476 Rs.
                                  but i did not get any legal notice to my home address or email id.

                                  Why i should pay 1476 Rs now, they said it was closed 5 months before. It is totally a harassment

                                  Airtel(BroadBand) — Don't go for Airtel broadband Conection

                                  Hi,

                                  Please don't go for Airtel Broadband. If you want to disconnect the Airtel broadband connection, they won't disconnect and send yoy the bills. If you call again to disconnect, they ask you the reasons to disconnect( again and again) nad continue sending the bills

                                  I have faced this problems. due to the busy schedules we dont get time to take legal action and they
                                  are making profit of it.

                                  Thanks

                                  Bharti Airtel Ltd — Improper bill

                                  Pls refer our sevaral discussion for waiver of Data card retal.
                                  I have got confirmation of waiver, still it is appeared in my bill and also charged for last month bill.

                                  It is being endorsed that, bills which are being sent to the customers are not genuine.

                                  Let me expose your billing style which is a very clear proof of cheating.

                                  1) In the plan provoded to me i am eligible for 150 Mins local calls free, According to my plan tarrif fo locl call is 50 paise. If we consider 50 paise / call then i muist get benifit of Rs 75, insted of Rs 30 as you are giving me in bills.( pls also ref my earlier bill )

                                  2) I have been charged Rs 224 for SMS others, Kindly provode me customised report for the same. I know i have never used any other SMS facility.

                                  Kindly provide me siutable solution with your confirm action. or else i will be forced to take up matter with TRAI and consumer forum

                                  I am using Airtel Internet broadband. Airtel has cheated on me.
                                  It has provided a defective wi-fi modem which gives poor wi-fi signal that gets disconnected every 10 minutes
                                  The broadband service itself drops from backend regularly.
                                  It seems I have completely wasted my money.

                                  Airtel — improper service,no will to help

                                  Hi ,
                                  This is Dr. Pranay Kumar Srivastava from jabalpur.I had been to airtel connect for a replacement of the lost sim card.I was asked that it would take 4-6 hours to start.I had specifically inquired about the connects number as it was not possible to drive again nearly 16-18 kms which is the distance from where we live to the connect(customer service centre).They refused giving any number and said that they had no number and if i needed to follow up the restart of my services I was to do it on [protected] which was wrong.I tried 4 times and finally when I reached the call center executive he said that he could not give any information as this was a prepaid helpline.Then he suggested another number which was [protected] at which when I contacted they said that it is the connect only which can help me as they cannot do anything.He added that my documents had not been submitted (which I had already completed while I was at the connect) and only the airtel connect could tell me when the sim would rework.He also told me that it was my mistake that I had not taken the connects number(which i a had specifically asked for a number of times ).He could not provide me the connects number either.

                                  Its a shame that for such simple works because of the uncoordinated executives we have to suffer again and again.I have been with airtel fo more that 8 years and still they cannot be of any help when you get struck.The executives have no idea as to how to solve the problem or what to speak or even providing correct information.This costs the customer monetarily and time wise also as it is very difficult to find time in weekdays to travel again and again to these centres situated far away.
                                  Namaste Mr. Padma,

                                      Address: Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh

                                      I have two Airtel postpaid numbers, lets call them number A and number B. On April 21 2013, I got a call from a Pakistan number [protected] on my first Airtel postpaid number (A) at 9:57 pm. When I got this call, I immediately received it but nobody responded from the other side.

                                      Within a minute's time, I got another call, from this same Pakistan number, on my other Airtel postpaid number (B)!!! The time was 9:58pm. I literally freaked out, but had the courage to receive this call also. During this call too, nobody responded and I hung up the phone.

                                      My observation from this incident is that the way I got subsequent calls on both my Airtel postpaid numbers(in a sequential manner within a minute) is the same way in which I receive various calls from Airtel customer care. For example, in case the due date is coming closer, I receive a call on my first number, A and the per-recorded message is played. Within a minute or two, I receive a call on my other number with the same message! In the same way, even the Airtel customer care executives also make calls in the same sequence and with the same time lag of around one minute.

                                      The pattern of such calls always remains the same - I always receive the first call on A and only after that I receive the call on B. This has never happened that the call is first received on B and then on A.

                                      The pattern clearly suggests that it is Airtel and Airtel only which makes/solicits these calls. Only God knows, what personal info of their customers are they channeling to Pakistan agencies with such calls.

                                      AirTel — unsolicited scheme

                                      we have total 5 mobile prepaid connections of Airtel,, NOS- [protected] / [protected] / [protected] / [protected] and there is complete anarchy as far as customer interest and protection of balance is concerned.Every month service provider that Airtel has been deducting from our talk time for unsolicited schemes.
                                      every month they activating different schemes and deducting talk time without taking our consent and 121 service is complete farce.
                                      problem is not that they are doing such thing but doing with impunity.

                                      do the needful

                                      I am receiving continuous fake call from an airtel number [protected] from about 2-3 weeks. i am very disturbed as the caller despite rejection continuously recalling in d interval of 2-3 days. please identify the caller or make this number not to call me again.

                                      thanking you

                                      AirTel — Unsolicited Calls.

                                      Hi,

                                      I am getting repeated calls from the Number[protected]. Whoever is calling, immediately disconnects after I answer the call. This has been happening for many days now. I tried to trace the location of the number, and I find that it is an Airtel number from the Bihar / Jharkand area. I am from south India, and have no reason to receive any calls from anybody from this area. Today I received another call from another number[protected], again from the same location.

                                      Kindly take appropriate actions against these numbers.

                                      Thanks and Regards.
                                      Hi,

                                      I had, as you suggested, mailed to [protected]@in.airtel.com. The response I got was to file an FIR with the police station. I was already aware of that option. The intention of posting my complaint here, was to know if there was any other way to have the issue resolved, other that the only option of filing a police complaint. Now that I know that there is nothing that can be done from your side, I'd prefer to close the complaint that I posted here.

                                      Thanks and Regards.
                                      - Satish.

                                      Dear Sir,

                                      I have been receiving calls from an unknown number which is - [protected]. Can you please suggest or help to resolve this issue by warning the person to avoid his/her calIs.

                                      Thank you.
                                      Called Airtel Customer Care from number B -

                                      After submitting this complaint, I called Airtel customer care. First time they responded (name oof executive was Manisha) but when I dug down deeper, the executive said she is transferring the call to her senior. After that the call was disconnected from their side.

                                      Second time Priyanka picked up - Said not able to register request. Gave an email id - 121(at)in(dot)airtel(dot)com to register the complaint
                                      Told that their system automatically doesn't accept request for unsolicited calls made from Pakistan. Executives are educated such that all calls made from Pakistan are lottery related. Said response on the email will be within 24 hours, suggested to mention mobile no. A or B in subject.
                                      Namaste Mr. Gupta,

                                      Dear Mr. Ranga,

                                      I think we have missed the point here. I would like Airtel to explicitly agree that these calls have not been made/solicited by Airtel.

                                      Why I am insisting on this point is because I have a very strong reason to believe that these calls ARE made by Airtel.

                                      If not, then please let me know about the same so that I can further explore all the legal remedies for this perennial issue.
