sir,
My mobile no. is [protected]. I got the mobile portability number AG656987 on[protected] AND expiry date was[protected]. On[protected] i applied for mobile number portability from airtel to reliance with documents but on[protected] i received massage from reliance that airtel has rejcted the application due to invalid unique porting code. Due to delay of operators in process why i should suffer?

          AirTel — Digital TV installation

          I have booked digital tv on 3rd Jun, 2010(customer ID [protected]). I have received installation confirmation for 5th Jun through SMS. When nobody turned up, I have given complaint vide Complaint no 2970076 dated 5/6/10. Every time we call help line, they promised that installation will be done in next 4 hours, wait for the day. There after writing to nodal officer, I received e-mail confirming installation on 11th Jun,10. But now they differed it to another week. Regret to inform that installation is still pending, there is no commitment to the promise.

          After making payments in advance, following up so much loosing time, money, energy , there is only endless wait. Please do needful to get urgent installation.

          AIRTEL DIGITAL TV — not yet installed

          i have booked airtel digital tv on 5th nov by online they told that they will install on 6th but till now it is not installed..

          Airtel DTH — Airtel digital not yet installed

          I had bought a Airtel DTH on 01/11/10 and it has not yet been installed. I tried to call the customer care for help and till date they are not in a position to fix my problem. The dealer from whom I purchased the connection is not ready to help and has threatened not to come againto his shop. I have now taken connction from other service provider and I want my money back cam anyone tell me the procedure to get a refund
          Airtel dth is really a poor service provider as i experienced.

          Airtel DTH — Installation not yet done

          My Customer ID is [protected], booked an airtel digital TV on 7th Oct-11by paying an amount of
          Rs.1690 and later received a message on the same day mentioning the installation will be done on 8th Oct-11, around 3 PM IST.

          But there were no communication from their side and later I made several calls to the customer care; but the response was very poor and no body don't have enough idea of when the connection will be provided
          and they were telling the same answer like - "will communicate to the backend team".

          NOT YET THE INSTALLATION DONE.

          Iam not sure why the Airtel has kept it's customer service.
          The connection has been installed successfully on 26.01.2013;
          Service is good
          It has Good picture quality and excellent sound quality
          They said reason for installation get delayed is address finding..

          Thanks for installed airtel digital tv

We applied for this service in October 12 .Our connection was installed on 27/10/12 .We have paid annual subscription of Rs 3290 that was being asked by AIRTEL and we have confirmatory message from them for the same .On 10/01/13 our connection was cut by AIRTEL .We have called their call centre to know the reason . As per them AIRTEL has installed HD pack instead of freedom pack on our TV without our knowledge Rs 3290 is being consumed by January. Now AIRTEL is asking us for more money to get the connection resumed and to continue the service. We have been requesting to reinstall our connection but they are asking for payment .They have been harassing us since last 2 weeks and are behaving very rudely and is unprofessional manner. I am requesting them to change the set top box and let me avail the services till the date till I have paid for but they are constantly demanding more money . I have written several mails to them , talked at their Toll Free no , but of no use . I am not getting any support nor any feedback for my complaint

            AirTel — Regarding service provided by them

            I am the customer of the prepaid airtel from more than two years. Firstly I
            got very sincere service from it but around 6-7 months past it become
            very dull. There are more call drops in the service and most of the
            time I talk with the customer care service but they are not given me
            the satisfying answer. And one of executive Mr. Pramode is just
            talking so rudely and disconnecting my call. And after than he never
            picks my call. Most of the time there executive is just kept on the
            hold and disconnecting after some time. i have facing lots of problem
            with there call dropping and when i talk regarding that they are
            replying the problem is of your handset but even after changing the
            handset it is not solving and they are not clearing it sometime
            thought that to through the sim but now it won't possible because now
            my number is spreading allover and it will creating lots of problem
            but airtel don't concerned about that they have to make and spreading
            business by getting new customer they don't have to take care of
            existing one ...
            I am not only one person who have this same problem there are lots of
            person who facing the same problem... I am very much frusteted withs the network service sometimes...

            Airtel — DTH-Wrong setup box

            Hi ,
            recently i bought a sony bravio (KLV-32CX420) television with free airtel digital TV [HD] connection with 3 months of subscription. When I asked them for a airtel DVR (recorder),they have advised me to recharge my account for 2,000 rs which i have done. Next day i called up the customer care to setup a date for installation, which they have agreed on May 17 2011 along with HD DVR. But the guy just gave us normal HD setup box instead of HD DVR. Regarding this mistake i have called up customer care 12150 numerous times, but each time they tell me that back end team will call me back which does not happen. please look into it.
            Here are my details:-
            Customer id:- [protected]
            Name:- Rajesh Dandu.

            thanks,

                      AirTel — Unnecessary Balance Deduction-No Refund as of now

                      Yesterday[Nov 19th] my balance of Rs 52 was completedly deducted for the usage if Airtel LIVE when my phone was in locked mode and when i had not even touched my phone during thst period of time . I DID NOT use Airtel live but my balance has got deducted. I called the Customer Care immediately to address the issue at 10:50 PM, but they have failed to take any action on it. I have again spoken to Customer Care-Shiva Kumar and he refuses to refund the amount or take any action on the issue.
                      I have been using Airtel for nearly 7 years and BSNL, Tata Docomo etc also, never faced these kind of issues with other providers. I dont see the necessity to cheat customers like us and deduct money in an unfair manner like this. The quality of Airtel network is becoming very low and cheap these days.

                        I am a existing consumer of Airtel Broadband. My plan is of 15GB for 1099 per month plus taxes. After i utlize my plan , the speed falls down to 256kbps. Today while speaking to airtel helpline, in between talks, i realized to my amusement , that there is already an existing plan of 15GB for 699 per month. After utlization of the limit, the speed falls to 512kbps. There is no difference in the plan. The new plan is just cheaper. After i asked why my plan was not changed and rates dropped, i was told that its my job to keep a track of it. I should be visiting their websites on regualr basis to find out if the rates are dropped.

                            Kindly Note: there is not anything mentioned about timing limitation on that category 22 Rs Recharge.. There was only Written: Rs. 22 All STD [protected]@30p/min.. While they have mentioned timing terms on 16 INR recharge as: - All Local & STD Mobile Calls - 30p/min (10PM-5PM), between 5PM-10PM as per Base Plan.

                            After I have conversation with their customer support they said if you want 24 hours working plan for std you can go with 12 INR Topup… this will work 24 hours no any time limitations : -

                            I have recharged again on: Sat, Jan 19, 2013 at 4:20 PM.. RS 12 - All STD Rs1/3min.Other calls as per tariff…

                            But the same thing happening again with me on evening 5 to 10 PM if I make any STD calls for 14:30 Minute.. There 11 INR deducted from my main balance…

                            Also Their customer support team not responding well on this issue.. They always said that sorry sir at present time there is Technical updating on our site so kindly call us after 1 hour…

                            I Just want to know that this is the AIRTEL the brand WINs the best “Telecom Company AWARD”… what rubbish!

                            I hope I will get solution on this issue soon… My main concern is this that, my mostly callings are STD... So I want a STD plan which will work for 24 hours.. No any time limitations…

                            Thanks

                            Airtel — AIRTEL'S EXTREMELY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE

                            This is to put on record my utter disappointment with the service of Airtel broadband customer care team. From the facts stated below, you will understand that the customer executives have been continuously lying and deceiving me:



                            I have been a user of the landline number[protected] and broadband since August 2004 and I hold an excellent record for prompt payment of my bills. In December 2008 I had to leave the country for a few months on work and I had requested for cancellation of the aforesaid line.



                            I returned India on May 30, 2009 and I immediately placed a request for re-activation/reconnection of the aforesaid line by calling the customer care number 4444121 and my request for re-activation of the line 4214 2887 was taken by Mr. Harish and given a reference number 20373010 on May 30, 2009. I was informed by him that the line will be restored before 11:30 am on June 8, 2009. He assured me that the date given is the maximum time they would take to restore the line but they would be restoring the line much before that.



                            However, no one visited my residence or even made any call regarding the restoration of the line and nothing was done by June 8, 2009. Therefore, I made a call to the customer care number on June 9, 2009 and complained to Ms. Bharathi, who apologized for the delay and took a fresh complaint and gave a new reference number 20703734 and promised me that the line would be restored maximum by June 11, 2009. I called the customer care on June 10, 2009 and spoke to Mr. Sampath just to reconfirm that they had all my contact details and that they would restore the line at least the next day. He confirmed that the line will be restored the next day and I believed him.



                            However, the line was not restored by June 11, 2009 as promised and I felt completely cheated. By evening I received a call from Mr. Basha from the customer care department apologizing for the delay and he transferred the call to Mr. Jeshan in the back end office, who promised me that the line would be restored by Saturday June 13, 2009. On June 11, 2009 an executive from Airtel visited my residence but instead of restoring the line he took my signatures on a subscriber enrollment form and promised me that the line would be restored the following day or latest by Monday June 15, 2009. However, once again I was deceived and lied to because the line was not restored as promised.



                            I called the customer care line on June 15, 2009 and complained to Mr. Srikanth, who transferred the call to Ms. Genova, who apologized to me for the delay and took a fresh request 26548865 and assured me that the line would be restored within 4 hours. But once again it proved to be a lie. Nothing happened in the next 4 hours and I called the customer care number again and this time I spoke to Mr. Daniel, who after consulting his superior Mr. Blessing, assured me that the line would be restored within next 24 hours.



                            After 24 hours, when the line was still not restored, I called the customer care number and spoke to Mr. Maniraj and thereafter to Mr. Srirangam who apologized, and took a fresh request 20801778 and promised me that the line will be restored as soon as possible. I once again called on June 17, 2009 and complained to Mr. Robert about how irritated and cheated I felt by the action of the Airtel executives.



                            Today i.e. June 18, 2009 I called customer care again and spoke to Ms. Aysha, who said my request has been closed without giving any reasons.



                            I am utterly shocked, disappointed, cheated and extremely irritated by Airtel’s service. I used to have great trust in the brand Airtel especially because I’ve been a user of their services for 4 years. But all that has been shattered now. Now according to me Airtel’s service has the lousiest service. I am going to dissuade people from choosing Airtel, which had become worse than the public sector service providers.

                            AirTel — bad customer support

                            I just want the Airtel higher ups to know that inspite of me calling several times on one issue, the problem is still not fixed. And everytime the CSR's try explaining me that its a problem from my end..
                            there i a STD number from Gorakhpur(vodafone) which i am nt able to call from my airtel number.. in the mean time i am able to call the same number using aircel, vodafone & idea connections.
                            I have contacted the Airtel customer support number of times but still the problem is not fixed.. i just want to know whether you people can fix it or u r not technologically equipped to get it fixed.

                            I[censored] say that u dont know how to get it fixed i have no problem but please dont give all the Gyan to me and try to fool me because o[censored]r incompetence. Thanks

                            AirTel — Bad-customer service

                            Hi,

                            Today I was trying to make online payment for my Airtel Fixedline while talking to the Airtel Customer Service rep who was helping. After I submitted my debit card infoemation there was an error so the rep transferred my call to the technical dept. for help however they kept me on hold for 10 mins and hung up. So i claled up the technicla dept. directly and they were helping me to make the payment online and again the same error occured once i submitted all the info of my Debit card so the technical dept. again kept me on hold and hung p after 5-6 mins. So the 3rd time I login to the airtel website and tried to make the payment and it was successful. After sometime when I checked my citibank account all the three transaction were successful. SO I called the complaint number for Airtel however they told me that they will not refund the 2 unathorized transaction and will adjust it for the furtute usage of the service and also denied to trnsfer the call to any supervisor.
                            Never expected such a bad service from Airtel.
                            Everytime you called them they will disconnect the call and it takes a long time to get conncted to them.

                            Please help.

                            Desired Settlement: Want the refund for the 2 unauthorized transaction...

                            Name: Sino
                            Phone number: [protected]
                            I have received a call from Airtel however the reprsentative did not give me any resolution . She just asked me if i have filed any consumer complaint for m, y mobile number and I said that it was not for my Mobile number but for my Airtel Fixedline.

                            My Airtel Fixedline numer is: [protected]

                            I have not received my refund for my 2 unauthorized charged.
                            I have also contacted citibank and they said that Airtel needs to refund me as the transaction was made from Airtel website.

                                Address: Delhi

                                I am an old customer of Airtel for last 10 years[protected]. Due to long absence from India, I got my this no. closed. Upon my return in October 2012, I asked them if they can give me same no. but customer care people said that I will have to wait since port is not available.

                                After many calls for almost a month, I got a call from Mr. Sandeep[protected] & [protected]) who suggested to provide similar number[protected]
                                and sent a field boy to collect Rs 500 and fillup the form. The next day when his boy arrived, I got a call from airtel for giving 41631924 within 2 hours. I told Mr. Sandeep about this and he said its and eye wash. Upon insisting to come back next day, coz I wanted to give time to old no guys, Sandeep advised to give the money to filed boy since he was already at my place. Sandeep told me that he will return the money in case my old connection gets activated. Surprising, old no guys worked diligently and old no started the same afternoon. I informed Sandeep, and his promised to send back the money.
                                He lied and cheated, in fact he completed and signed the form and forwarded it for new connection. I was shocked to get first paper bill in which there were lots of discrepancies.

                                Since then nobody is responding, answering.
                                I have contacted all the concerned Grievances, Appellate, 121, but they have chosen not to read thru my complaints emails and all responses advise me to request for closure of the account thus making me liable to pay 2 bills along with my Rs. 500 adjustments.

                                I have suffered a loss of Rs. 500
                                I have received 2 bills
                                One bill is paper bill with customer's details discrepancies
                                2nd bill is ebill, where few of the discrepancies have been corrected based on my old no. I never authorized or supplied any information regarding this

                                I want my Rs. 500 back & wish to have a proper investigation into this episode by Airtel or high managers of Airtel about this Sandeep and lower clerical staff of airtel on how or why they fill up details of the customer and with their sweet trustworthy talks, betray a consumer.

                                  Address: Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh

                                  Airtel broadband service
                                  In the month of july(cant remember the date) i activated the Airtel broadband service with Rs999 plan([protected]@2MBPS, post [protected]@256kb/s) for which their agent when visited my house to start the service, took Rs1000 as activation fees + Rs500(god knows for what) on the condition that these Rs500 will be deducted from the monthly rental next time my bill come for the next month. It should be noted that the modem was provided from my side. The agent assured me that not a single penny extra will be charged(if calls are not used) and the bill will be 999-500=499(due to pre payment), and then usual Rs999/month bill will be dispatched for which another agent from the company will come to my house to whom i have to submit the bill payment amount. But as i(came to) know that 'tax' too are added in each bill making monthly bill over Rs1100/mnth approx, i question why was i put into dark the whole time about 'taxes'?? The agent DID NOT tell me once anything about such taxes. Nevertheless apart from this, neither the bill came to my house nor any agent on their behalf(as was proposed by that initial agent) to collect the payment, In the mean time, i (relying solely on a WRITTEN BILL/AGENT to pay my dues) didn't took any initiative to recharge my account(unfortunate mistake on my account) due to which within 48 hours my internet connection was cut-off(i would like to remind the status-Rs1500 from me, 1 month use from their side) and till date(13th dec 2012) i HAVEN'T USED A SINGLE KB OF DATA after de-activation.
                                  Now its been over 3 months when their first executives called me and announced my unpaid bill amounting to over Rs3500!!!!(3 months amount about 3-4 weeks ago). I made him understand the whole situation right from starting till end, and again to another executive, and again to another, and again, and again till i started ignoring their calls(sorry from my side but i was forced too, i can't explain the whole thing to a newbie again and again, i am a university student, i got a college to attend).
                                  Recently some moments before i am writing this again one of their agent called me and i picked it up to resolve it completely(so irritating) and told my whole story again, they say i need to pay the bills, i say DID I USED INTERNET FOR THAT 3 MONTHS??? If internet was deactivated right after the end of 1 month usage, where does this bill arises, and if the bill arises, where is the usage from my side???, Are they expecting the customer to pay the bill for that purpose which he didn't even use(not even knew if he could even use as the service was deactivated). They now say that an email was dispatched to your id(that was my fathers email address) and that you should have known, i don't even open 'my' email account forget about my fathers(sorry from my part again)
                                  Now all i know that its NOT ME whose duping them of any disadvantageous usage, i had already (more than)paid for whatever i used and don't find myself liable to pay any further bill. Although i challenge the co that if they find me that i used atleast 10+10+10GB of data(3 months usage quota for which they are showing me the bill) I AM AND I WILL PAY THE DUE AMMOUNT(which they surely can know and prove whether i have used or not).
                                  I know this is a sticky situation but instead of pestering an innocent customer, one should question the agent which first activated the plan on my system and took Rs1500 from me. The modem is biting dust in my room as i have pledged never to use broadband in my life ever again(use a prepaid one or in my mobile) and so if they want can come and take it away and everything but please DON'T EXPECT THE CUSTOMER TO PAY THE BILL FOR THAT SOURCE WHICH HE HASN'T USED EVEN A BIT.
                                  I thereby announce that i won't pick any of their further calls
                                  Hope they understand the situation and resolve the issue and stop buzzing me for that reason from which neither party can benefit anything.
                                  ThankYou.

                                  Airtel Broadband — Internet shut off even after Bill is paid

                                  Dear Sir/Madam,

                                  My airtel landline no is[protected]. I had been earlier billed Rs.2481 which was paid off online using my niece's creditcard from Deutche Bank XXXX1001 on the 16th of April 2011 @ 17.51 to Bharti Airtel Ltd. An sms confirming the above action has been forwarded to me by my niece. An authorisation code has been provided which the bank has asked Airtel to use to claim the money paid out before May 15. The authorisation code is R55743.

                                  It is quite terrible that Airtel has continued to shutoff my internet even after the bill had been paid off. Especially so when it states on their website that internet services would resume within 2 hours after bill has been paid online. Not to mention the "top-notch" customer care that I had to contend with especially with a certain Sunil who put me on hold indefinitely only for the call to get cutoff. Please kindly resolve this matter asap.

                                  Yours,
                                  Disgruntled customer

                                    Today, 23 January 2013, Wednesday, i received a call at 7:41 AM, from an unknown number [protected]. I missed the call and didn't recognize the number. Later i tried calling back, but couldn't get through as i don't have ISD facilities and (Google) found out that the code is Pakistan's. This is concerning as i don't know anyone there.
                                    When later i googled more and found that this is problem faced by many.

                                    I would request you to kindly look into the matter and resolve the issue.

                                    Thanks

                                        Hi,
                                        I am an airtel subscriber (number -- [protected]). From past several days I have been facing a weird problem, whenever I try to recharge my phone with 3g data the transaction is happening but the recharge fails due to some reason, because of this a sum of 900 rupees has been deducted but my phone has not been recharged with the 3g pack. I also tried recharging from the local shops but they also cannot activate the 3g pack on my phone. Apart from this I have another problem, when I am checking 3g balance there is still close to 200 mb data left but the speed has reduced and now I am getting 2g speed which is very unfair. And yes I have tried calling customer care several times but they din't have any solutions and most of the time I ended up waiting on hold which was super annoying. I would like you guys to resolve these problems as soon as possible otherwise I will have to consider switching to some other company.

                                        Here are the transaction details: ( ID:[protected]; ID:839341; ID:427403)
