Airtel Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir/Madam,

As a responsible citizen of India i would like to raise a concern on fake calling from Pakistan (+92) country. Since yesterday i received 4-5 times missed call from below number:

1) [protected] at 4:12PM on 31 dec 2012
2) [protected] at 10:39am on 1 Jan 2013
3) [protected] at 11:31am on 1 Jan 2013
4) [protected] at 11:41am on 1 Jan 2013
5) [protected] at 11:42am on 1 Jan 2013

I unfortunately called at this num to inquire who is giving my missed calls. They ppl told you have got Rs 25lakhs of Lottery from airtel. They gave me some number 89910 (which i feel will be use number who responded back to their missed calls). The talk went for 1min 30 sec when i cut the call.

I'm concerned if they would have tracked my mobile phone IMEI num which they can utilize for some other purpose.

I request you to please take this seriously and barr this number from entering India. This can cause our nation a big cause.

Note: I'm not mentioning my mb num here coz i dont want to be a victim of fake calls. But pls let me know if you want my num to be mention here.

Your Sincerely

I bought Airtel DTH connection on 22nd on Dec 2012 at around 1100 IST and due to already connections available in my society i had to cancel this connection.

I contacted the Airtel DTH customer care and reported them about the cancellation on my connection on 22nd Dec 2012 at 1700 IST. It was confirmed to me that the connection can be cancelled and the refund will be made in 5-8 days.

but since then i am unable to get through to the customer care that can assist me on this. I called them atleast 15-20 times and i was always told that they will transfer the call to some senior and was always kept on waiting for more than 15 mins or so.

Hi,
Myself Mittal chheda using Airtel network for my mobile.
I have recharged recently -25 days back with 575 Rs to get corresponding talktime of 650.
I was in impression of the same refilling rules which we used to get earlier.(No restriction on specific validity and same balance use for calls,SMS,Internet)
But now got to know that above refilling is valid for only calls and not for any other purpose(SMS,Internet Pack etc.),and that is also valid for 30 days.my 575 ruppes go in vain without any use.
Why network provider has not informed or made awareness among customers about changes in such rules.
They have indirectly cheated customer.We just cant take it this way

even many times they just start any value added service without taking permission of customers on the mobile and cut the balance without knowledge of customer.
This happened many times with me.I am sure it must have happened with many such customers.

Need appropriate action on above matters.
Thanks & Regards,

Sir,

I am Amit Kumar, I was airtel customer from the past two years, but unfortunately due to my personnel issues I did not made the payment of my postpaid mobile [protected] of Rs3705/- only. I am currently out of the Bangalore. When I analyzed the bill it seems unclear to me as I didn't enjoyed any Internet packs services as my Sim card was also not inserted in my handset. So, I shoot a mail to airtel for which I got an automated reply that my concern will be addressed soon.

Meantime, the airtel collection people was calling me and i told the same thing to them and I want to quit airtel services after clearing all my dues, but they didn't understood and after that they started using abusing words, I too abused them and in return airtel called my people back home and abused my family also. This is unacceptable, I am very much interested to meet that collection executive personally as I will let that guy go easily..

Now, as I didn't got any reply from airtel side I am writing to you because I want an explanation. I have cleared my all dues with airtel.

I have that collection people numbers also, so I am coming to Bangalore soon and I will for sure fill a complaint or even I will contact my legal advisor regarding this issue.

If you need any more information than reply me soon.

WE DIDNT GET THE AIRTEL BILLS FOR LAST TWO MONTHS .PLS SEND THE MAIL TO THIS MAIL ID [protected]@gmail.com

Sir/Ma'am,

I had subscribed to these 2 airtel postpaid numbers [protected] and [protected]. Airtel has inflated the bills and are now demanding the payment which is fraudulent, extortive and illegal. I have been receiving threatening and abususive calls from [protected] and [protected] purporting to be airtel "agents". The recordings of these numerous calls are saved and available for perusal.
The "ladies" calling from the above mentioned numbers are abusive and have used derogatory language in demanding monies which are not due to barti airtel lawfully. Co-ercive language and derogatory terms were expressed, which have been recorded, and will be presented to the necessary courts.

I implore that this extortion, blackmail and de-famation is stopped immediately, and my plea be heard as and when the honourable court decides.

Hi Sir/Madam,

I have deactivated my DTH connection on Dec 1st 2011 due to change of address. I have given my new address to get refund amount. After waiting for few months, i sent mail to the concerned team and called customer care to check my refund status. After few compliants, i was informed that the amount is sent through blue courier to old address and it was received by someone. I registered complaint again but no reply and no status. Airtel guys cheating customers by not refunding their amount. They know adding interest and cheating but they dont think about customer. My details are below. Please help me in getting my money back.

I am Elamaran and I have availed an Airtel 3G Datacard, number [protected], before 4 months. I have opted for the new Rs.950 plan, where they said I will receive speeds upto 7.2Mbps till 5GB and after that, god knows what. First month, everything is fine and second month, the 5GB data usage got over and I called the toll free number[protected], and requested to top up 1GB Smartbytes pack that costs Rs.300. The executive who spoke to me said that I will receive confirmation message within 4 hours and the pack will take a maximum of 48 hours to be activated. But, my need for the extra usage passed out next day, and the pack was never activated, nor did I received any message regarding.And after 15 days I needed high speed Internet and all of a sudden they blocked my account, I called them again. When I asked the what-abouts of the previous request, I got shocked by the answer. He said that I have used up that 1GB SmartBytes pack and the same has been added to my bill. Since the whole amount crossed the available credit limit, they have blocked my account. I had the previous month's bill pending, which is the month when I raised the 1GB data request, and altogether the bill was Rs.2600/-. After a long argument, he elevated the call to the floor manager, who said I must pay Rs.2300 and he can waive off that Rs.300 only after that. I asked for the Nodal Officer's contact number and email address, to raise the complaint. He gave a mail ID that is "nodalofficer.[protected]@airtel.in". I sent the complaint to that mail ID for about 4 times, but not even a single message was delivered. It came back with a message that airtel.in takes too long to respond. However I had no time to deal with these stupid issues and I carried on my work after paying the bill of Rs.2300. This month, on 29.12.2012, I requested again for a smartbyte for Rs.450 for 2GB, from the list of packs told by the executive. I even received a message promising that my request will be done by 30th December. Bu I haven't received any message nor my Data speed increased. When I called the toll free number again, and asked for the actual email address of the Nodal authority. She ased me to wait on the line and disconnected the call. Again I called, and the executive who spoke was so rude in her tone and said that the pack was not Rs.450 but Rs.475, and she cannot give me the name of the executive who spoke to me earlier and when I asked for the Nodal Officer's email address, she gave me the same email address which is not working. When I said that it is not working, she told me to replace "nodalofficer" in that ID with appellate and send it again.

Overall, the executives of airtel are not aware of the exact prices and tariffs, there is no use of service requests, and there is a magical person called Nodal Officer, existing only in words. If anybody knows what can be done with this issue, please guide me. My Email ID is [protected]@ymail.com and elamaran.[protected]@gmail.com.

If the authorities of Airtel ever come across this complaint, I am more than ready to answer their arguments if they have any and also, I have decided not to pay the bill until I get any answers for these issues.

Please be aware of the Airtel network, since whatever the intensity of the issue is, you have to deal it only with the executives who are unaware of what must be done to resolve. And any complaints on them too have to be made with them only. Funny though!

Today 31.12.12, I received a missed call from +92 [protected]. Later, I came to know, the +92 series is from Pakistan. I don't have any friends / relations from pakistan, so I don't know, how does they got my no. and reasons are unaware.

Please look into the matter

Hi,

Last month my number [protected] was ported out from Idea to Airtel. It took around 5-7 days for the MNP process and the issue was from Airtel Side as they have tied an incorrect application number to it.

But kudos the Airtel team , at last they realized that the problem was from their side and anyhow fixed the issue.

This is not the end of the story…..

From last Friday (28/12/2012) the service of the number has been stopped. I contacted the vendor ( Libra communication Pune) and they told me the SIM is in PD state. It has been 3 days , they not able to provide any satisfactory resolution. This is my only contact number and the disconnection made me stand in an’ No Man Land’.

We have been using airtel Broadband connection for almost a year. and the fixed line number is [protected], account number : [protected]. we have shifted to a new address and placed a request to transfer the line to the new address on Nov 6th 2012. From that day onwards we get almost 10 calls per day and the first time they said
1)the landline number will change and we agreed for that and they chaged the number and they call several times to confirm the change.

2)Then again after few days they called and infomred that the Plan will change and downgraded the plan to a different one, and again repeated calls to confirm the change of plan.

Then there was no response and one fine day there was a call from a technician and he said he wanted to have a look at the place. We gave him the address and he reached the address but then he said that he didn't bring any tools and that he wanted to see the location and said he will come the next day and after that he didn't turn up.

After all this again I called after a month and was informed by the customer support agent that the techinician has updated that the connection cannot be set up in the new address,Which we were not informed at all. So i called and requested for the diconnection of the line. but they informed that there is an outstanding amount and they cannot take the cancellation request. We have not used the connection for more than a month and how come they expect this from us when we have not got any good service and response from Airtel. This is not genuine also. I have so many request numbers. Not sure which one to call and track... this is very very ridiculous and gives us so much of stress and they treat us like some beggars..... we are paying them so much and the response they give is terrible and not sure what step to take next. Atleast if they cancel our connection we can move on to take further steps. But instead they keep calling and it disturbs our work and if we don't pick their call when we are in some other work they just update that there is no response from us and close the request without any action.

The below are the request numbers

Hi,

So I bought the Airtel 3G Dongle and got the number [protected]. The dongle works fine for now, but try connecting it to a Lava W150 router and it doesn't work. So i tried reading online and did some changes on the admin page for the router by giving its APN and dial number. Still the router is not able to connect to the network using the dongle. So finally i called into the customer care at [protected] - got to the agent and to my astonishment. Everytime i got the agent they didnt understand what i was saying. :((( Cant we have agents who understand english support customers who choose english on the IVR ???? All i need to know is what do i do to make that dongle work through the wireless router. Is there a document? A link? Its sold on the airtel website!!!!

Thanks

Dear sir / Madam,
Sub :- Activation of 3G airtel data card IMEI [protected] & sim no.[protected]

This is to bring to your kind notice that one person sent by Ms. Priyanka from airtel noida/ came to my office on 22.12.2012 and offered me airtel 3g connection. On that day I paid him rs.1200.00 cash having receipt no. MT 541 dated 22-12-12 and took the connection and I have been promised that I will get activation in 48 hrs. but till now I did not get activated my data card. As before I have sent 3 to 4 times email to your supreme authority, but there was no action taken till date.
The matter is most urgent. Either you activate the data card or return my money within 24 hours.
